Robin Finck

[Jim Bob]

theres nothing to debate with slash fans.   i lost interest in that many years ago, much like his hardcore fans should do in regards to gnr.

if you lost interest, then why do you continue to post in threads relating to Slash?
And when people are discussing Robin, why can't you add any useful insight?

[Voodoochild]

Indeed. But you agree that when you write a solo or guitar work and it doesn't appear on the writing credits, it's still writing, correct?

yeah it is still writing and deserves credit

Thanks. Now please tell D about that because he just believe what he read on the booklet and therefore Robin sucks because he has only one song credited (even tho A LOT of people praises Better as one of the best songs, as long as D doesn't like it, that means it sucks).

And of course, no matter how many times I say that, he still use this songwriting talk to backup his statement to disregard Robin.

just you then, and one or two other Robin fanboys 

Again, that doesn't take us anywhere.

i also think that some people on this board REALLY underestimate the importance of writing.  Slash wrote some awesome riffs and solo's and had very good writing credits within the band.  and he was enegetic on stage.  Id take that over someone who looks cool and can play well but cant write for shit.

Yes, I agree... Slash should have received some writing credits for Estranged for example.  Also November Rain, Slash took a piano piece and really messed with the arrangement.  I know Axl wrote the words, but without Slash, those songs wouldn't be anything great.

This thread has nothing to do with slash but I beg to differ. The pinao only demo of November Rain is better than the final product as far as I'm concerned.

You talking about the one that repeats the same thing for 6 minutes?  No, its not "better".  You may like it more because Slash isn't on it.  But that NR solo is considered to be one of the more epic guitar solos in Rock N Roll history.

No it doesn't repeat the same thing for 6 minutes and it has nothing to do with slash at all. Overall its much more of an emotional piece of music with just the piano and vocals than with all the other stuff mixed in with it.

Hogwash!  Axl Sings it different, what the hell does that have to do with Slash's solo?  Slash's solo, like him or not, SCREAMS emotion.  Slash perfectly matches Axl's emotions, just like in Estranged.

Get the fuck out of this thread already!

Oh, and Merry Christmas.

HAHAHAHAHA, Merry Christmast to you to Jarmo!

It was the Finck worshipers that brough Slash into this.  Can't they leave that poor guy alone?  FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wasn't talking about slash solo at all, you brought up his solo saying the song wouldn't be anything special without him which is FUCKING BULLSHIT!. As i said in my first post, the demo of Axl on the piano singing it is brilliant WITHOUT slash even being on it.

[Genesis]

just you then, and one or two other Robin fanboys 

well you seem to care because you are posting in a Robin thread. 

Well, in that case, you must lurve Slash, since you post in all the threads about him.
Just admit it, VR is your favourite band rite?

dawg, if you think JB is acting like a jerk or whudevah in slash threads, why act like him in the robin thread?

You're right. It's getting hard to stoop that low. There isn't anything interesting for me to talk about Robin anyway.

[D]

hold on voodoo

me not liking finck has nothing to do with his lack of writing contributions on the album, i just don't like his style of play

as i stated, there are many other guitar players i don't like either.. its just personal preference


Finck does a good job on Better *cept for the intro which makes my ears bleed* but his solo in it is great and his solo on SOD is great

other than that... I don't like his play.. maybe its cause Bucket is a million times better so when it comes to a Finck solo.. i just expect more cause Bucket kind of dominates the album everytime he touches a track.

[Henson]

I don't want to rock your world but...
sometime during your life, you're going to have to try and understand anothers opinion,
instead of flailing poor rhetoric and disregarding it.

NOVEMBER RAIN:

Music By AXL ROSE

Lirics By AXL ROSE

[GNR4L]

WOW ! Robin sucks ? Makes me ears bleed ? LOL that guy was in GnR longer then your boy Slash....  NEWSFLASH Slash hated SCOM, November Rain, Hell he didn't even wanna do patience...  Robin was a great lead guitarist in Guns N' Roses and I miss him dearly and I don't like how people come here and disrespect him.  Guys like Jim Bob and voodo get shitted on cause they like Robin gimme a break, Robin put alot of work and time into that album.  He wrote probaly the best song and best single on CD so I suggest all of you just move on with whatever agenda u have.

I get you dislike his playing, but you said several times how he only had one songwriting credits and bla bla bla.

[Ashba Rocks]

dont mean to provoke any robin fans, this is just my opinion and view


Im quite happy robin has left, with ashba in the fold, it feels that GNR are more complete than they have been since slash left. for me, robin never fit in, his look and style of play didnt fit in the band for me, and thats why im quite happy he's gone

[Voodoochild]

Yeah, I got that in the other thread. I dunno why you had the need to post here tho.

Still, I get you dislike Chinese Democracy as a whole, since there's lot of Robin there.

Because its topic related, not everyone reads every thread.

I dont "dislike" CD, i dislike robins playing on it, the songs are good, but the style of play i dislike of him, IE his solo in TIL is awful, but its one of my fav GNR songs, cant wait till ashba gets on it
