Richard & Frank appearance in New York (Sep 17th)

[peter7411226]

Are Frank and Richard members of The Compulsions?

You're saying they're not?

Exactly.

I saw the band in NYC last December. Frank played drums, Richard wasn't there.

Frank seems to play with them when he's home and not busy with GN'R.

He plays on some of their releases, but not all of them. And I think Richard is on some tracks as well.

Dude, I gotta offer my 2 cents here. I play in a band and i KNOW i wouldn't want to go out and jam with someone who uses my band name ( in a negative way) on there myspace page. Honestly you say its a review written by someone else. What is the point of having it posted on there site? To garner publicity for there band? Thats lame and I dont see why Frank or Rich would want to play with someone who has to resort to posting shit about  there band on there site. If theyr'e true friends who respect there playing and appreciate them coming down to play every so often they would take the posting down. Just my 2 cents.

Thats a step at least... I'd like an apology from the leader of this band  on behalf of the asswipe who wrote it, if i were frank or richard...

Not saying they're not entitled to their own opinion, but they went way out of their way to piss on it

[IFINGLOVEGNR]

Hell yeah, cant wait I'll be there!!!

Rob told me about this the other night, I've seen The Compulsions a bunch of times with Frank but never with Richard, Rob told me Richards not really a band member but he is on a couple of tracks

NYC Rules!!!

Since they're playing in NYC in a few weeks, maybe you can go and tell them exactly what you think of that instead of posting about it on the Internet?

Tell it to Frank's face that you don't like the quotes he never said in the first place....

I would gladly tell them what I think if you give me their email or something.

LOL COWARD!  You write that angry email!  You tell them what you think about it!  Be sure and use angry emoticons!

(You could not go to the show since you hate Frank and Rich so much, but you could wait outside to have a word with them, seeing how this topic is so important to you.)

For starters it wouldnt be angry

WHy would I travel an hr or so to tell them this? It not something that I think about all that much

If Frank were to come through Detroit, I'd love to meet that dude and shake his hand. His contributions on CD are some of my favorites.

Ahhh, but YOU DO think about it A LOT!  You've dominated this thread with your sentiments, so perhaps it would be healthier to voice your concerns in person rather than through an electronic medium.  Dig?

I was the person who first brought this to this thread.  I did not do it to create controversy or get the BS flowing.  Jarmo u know this... I have had limited posts I am an ardent supporter of the band and am one of the few on this board who stays out of the soap opera.  I just found it insulting to Axl. I apologize but in no way was I creating hostility.  but I will not cower to anyone,  been to loyal  at this shit for as long as anyone on this board... i am 40. guess what changed my mind...NO APOLOGIES!!!!

I got a facebook invite from Frank for this show,as im sure anyone else who is friends with him on facebook did.  I'm checking it out..

Have a good time Old Man.  I saw Dizzy and Richard last Saturday, and it was so much fun seeing the GN'R guys play again.  It's been almost three years since I had seen them.  Fortus brings so much energy, it really is a joy to see him play.

I saw Dizzy and Richard play a club here in NYC back in 2004, it was a lot of fun.  They played "Pretty Tied Up"...cant ask for more than that.

I was hoping for PTU, but they only had time for 5 songs. 

I can't wait to see the whole band again.
