Funny and kick ass.

Some day in the future, I would love to see Bumblefoot, Buckethead, and Brain work together on a track or two. Imagine what insane shit would come from that...

man I never thought about that,

I think in a perfect world , could they actually put their differences aside , and once that happens,

I rekon they could create some of the best guitar music the world has ever seen,
but life being life , things we want dong usually happen..

oi! don't make up a drama out of nothing.  read mysteron's post.
I don't see bad blood between bh and bbf or/the band. Or the band must hate josh freese, billy howerdel as well.

Bh is out on his free will and like axl said he contributed to gnr and Ron is in and he's contributing to the band.  I just hope some people quit their useless and annoying attacks on either guitarist.

If BH had looked so god dam out of place in gnr, what about axl and robin in 2002? they were all perfect fit then.
and again every one was perfect fit in 2006 and 2007. 
I expect another appearance change with the upcoming release.

My review.

WARNING:  CONTAINS SPOILERS

It?s really a shame that this dvd is so overpriced ($30+) because it really was entertaining in a mostly silly-stupid-funny sorta way.  I?m sure there?s a lot of ?inside? jokes that were over my head but that many of you might understand because you?re more familiar with who or what they?re about.

If you?re looking for a clue from this dvd on whether or not Brain is still in GNR, you?re NOT gonna get it.  At one point in the main part (the part with the Bumblefoot mention), it sounds like Brain is implying that he quit (he never says what he quit.  There?s also a reference to ?quitting? on the dvd cover). BUT, in the ?extras,? Brain makes a few references to some of the guys in the band (Axl, Tommy, Richard) so I don?t think he would do that if he wasn?t still in the band or at least still friends with the guys.

Like I said, the main part of the dvd is mostly silly-stupid-funny but there was one track, #15. I?M THIRSTY AND SCARED, which is a Brain and Buckethead duet that is IMO awesome.  NOTE:  This is NOT the same duet as the one posted in the youtube.

Track #22 INTRODUCING AKI ON DRUMS, is exactly what it says ? Brain introducing his beautiful baby girl, Aki.

Some GNR mentions in the ?EXTRAS?:  In the track ?Brain?s Drums,? the first kit he shows off is his GNR kit.  He mentions that he used it at the MTV Video Awards and he says he used to have yellow lugs on the red kit but he changed it because it "was kinda too McDonalds for Axl."

Brain also has the GNR set list?s tempos written on one of the drum heads because of ?the adrenaline of the shows? that ?the bass player Tommy would always yell at me and tell me I would play stuff too fast? (they show the drum head and you can read most of what?s written ? Think About 152 .. Blues 85 .. Chinese 134 (139?) .. You Could Be Mine 148 .. Nightrain 150 .. Out Ta Get 138 .. Rocket 115 .. Brown 106 .. Jungle 128).

There's another "extra" called "Furniture shopping w/RichardFortus" but Richard is NOT in it and it has nothing to do with furniture shopping.

GREAT DVD review..I plan on buying this pretty soon.  Brain is lookin a lot different these days, and Bucket is still as good as ever..

[mrbucketfoot]

I miss Brain. I hope to see him in '08. 

[ppbebe]

thanks gypsy for the review. I thought a dvd of drum lessons wouldn't be for a non drummer like me but after reading it, I'm so buying it!

so you honestly think, that bumble will play and/or collaborate with buckethead in the future....

There is no bad blood between BH and BBF but as far as I can tell,
Bumble will want to be as loyal as possible to axl +everyone else whilst hes the newest in new gnr,
and as for brain, He was friends with bucket before he even met axl/in gnr, so its different
But im still wondering why brain hasnt been in gnr the past 12+ months, where he has been in other musical roles etc,

But I doubt the 2 would ever play together, look at them both, their as opposite in personalities as you could ever get,
it wouldnt work..... Bumble is a free, humble yet humerous character and is what you see, what you get kinda person,
and Bucket, well, hes a freak... can you picture then 2 in a studio doing music together?
I sure as hell cant

[ppbebe]

Was bh not a freak and bbf not a friendly guy like now when they talked of the collaboration having nothing to do with the band? I guess yes and I think a freak and a humble guy can work together.
besides, guitar manias that know of ron before he joined the band would say Ron is a freak guitarist.

about the future, Who knows. But that's not my point.

There is no indication of bad blood as far as anyone can tell and yet your previous post sounded as if there were differences they should settle before doing anything together.

In reality BH is basically mute and BBF has commended bh. So has Richard. Likewise,  Brain's commended Jose.

[gunns1]

what I basically ment was, In a perfect world, where bumble and bh could play together and put differences aside which Is gnr -contracts etc...
I mean, If Bumble went and played with Buckethead, I think that might course some uproar in the gnr band.. but
then again, I would love to see these 2 guirtarists jedis battling it out in the studio, it would be infuckinsane,
I just doubt very much that that would happen...

aren't we sorta seeing it on the upcoming GNR albums? 

You're assuming that GNR is stopping them but
BBF and BH thought of their collaboration that hasn't materialised for some reasons on which GNR has no bearing whatever.

It's not as if GNR members would be disciplined for what to do with their spear time Or GNR got to hate whoever out. No.

[grog mug]

Every clip I watch makes me want to buy this more and more...damn I miss Brain and especially BUCKETHEAD!!!

this video made my day

[fuckin crazy]

But im still wondering why brain hasnt been in gnr the past 12+ months, where he has been in other musical roles etc,

He pretty much laid every track(minus, perhaps two) on Serj Tankians latest album.

And yet he didn't tour with serj.

This should lead to the most reasonable conclusion that he hadn't been available for a tour then.
