Should he not be rehearsing?

Rehearsing for what?

That reminds me, I'll have to go to the official site and see how that online shop (5 months and counting!) is coming along....

Yep that was country. 

Oh god is he going to get hell when he gets back to camp for that outfit.   Grin Not that it was wrong for country.  But if you see me smiling real big at him, I'm having a flashback.

No shit maN, they guy just has it... As much as I want him on lead, it says something when a guy like that takes rhythm....

Really in this case rhythm is just a "tag".... We all know he does so much more!

That's true  Smiley
I don't get this "he is only the rythm player" thing. First of all, without rythm, you have no song! Rythm is what makes the song and it is more important than Lead.
However, Lead Guitar is the "Star factor" in a band, because of the solos. But when you play only Lead, and not rythm, you play less than a guy who plays just Rythm. Rythm is like 85% of a song and Lead (solo part) is like 15%. Take Jungle, it's all about Rythm guitar and Guitar riff for about 90% of the song.

Anyway to come back to Richard,  he plays almost all the rythm, but he doesn't play the solos that make you a Star like Sweet Child O'Mine or the Novembre Rain outro etc...

Personally, if you add the fact he is barely not at all on the record Chinese Democracy (seriously, can you hear him play? I don't!), it seems to me that it's an Axl's choice. It seems Axl doesn't want to give him responsabilities and give him the "Star" spot. A LOT of people want Richard to play more Lead parts, or some more important solos, but it's like his role is limited in Axl's vision.

The only good thing is that he is center stage, because he is very spectacular and entertaining to watch.  But if the audience can't hear you play because you are lost in the mix and you don't play important solos... well...

On Mygnr, they are saying Fortus kicks some serious ass and that he should be the sole Lead Guitarist of the band. I want to watch this performance  Smiley
