I'm going to be seeing Robin with Nine Inch Nails in my hometown (Birmingham, UK) on the 18th May, can't wait to see him live again. As you guys know I'm a huge Robin fan, and the last time I seen him live was actually in Las Vegas in 2006. I flew to Vegas to see GN'R twice at the Hard Rock Hotel, little did I know he would of left Guns by the time I saw them again which was in 2010.

So can't wait to see him again, love this guy with all my heart... and he's easily my favourite guitarist ever. 

And to be honest, it took me a while to get over him leaving Guns. But have come to the conclusion that it's better for him, and I want him to be as happy as he can be. 

I'll definitely upload my pics from the show here too, going to take some HD video as well.

Guys and girls, I have dizzy memories about this...

It was Robin who help/ask/request/suggest to put "This I love" on the spot again and finish it?
I have blurry memories about this particular thing, don't know if Axl said something like that when he was on the forums, or he said something on tour at some point.
anyone remember?
thanks!

[Voodoochild]

Yeah, I think Axl said Robin and maybe Pitman conviced him to put back This I Love on the tracklist.

"The songs were chosen by everyone involved. I didn?t want to do This I love in anyway shape or form and Robin and Caram insisted gaining Tommy?s and the others support. "

It is indeed. But just imagine a killer Robin solo on top of that.

[Sosso]

I heard that he was planning a solo album a couple of years ago. That would be very interesting to hear.

Didn't know where to put this pic, but I found it on Josh Freese's instagram.



Robin and Josh in the studio with GN'R in 1998.


Although I am way happy with the current line-up and the last year's development. It's the best thing that could've happened. I still think the behind-the-scenes story of this era needs to be told. Particularly the 1996-2001 years. What went on in the studio, how big a body of material did they record? How did the first cut of the album sound? Was it in the vane of Oh My God throughout? It was such a mystique.

Would love to hear the story behind the robin days

I...would absolutely love to one day hear all the Sean Beaven produced tracks.  My dream has always been for Axl to put out like 3 different versions of Chi Dem in a special edition, featuring the Sean Beaven, Roy Thomas Baker & The Caram Castanzo cuts, with maybe a couple unheard tracks on each version.  Fuck, make it available on the website for hardcore fans.  ::sigh::

Unless someone like Bumblefoot (who I thought always seemed pretty down to earth and in touch with fans and their perception of things, writes a 'tell-all' book I doubt we'll ever know what really went on in the studio all those years and behind the scenes. I doubt he or anyone else would do that- but I'd love to read it!

[Johnnyblood]

Wasn't there also supposedly a fully re-recorded Appetite with that group of players?

Bumblefoot came in way later though.

Josh Freese has been pretty open during interviews, and has told a lot around the hiring of Buckethead.

As per Axl (in a 1999 interview with Kurt Loder on MTV News) they did record the whole of Appetite except Anything Goes and You're Crazy I believe. They switched those two with Patience and YCBM.

Mostly for rehearsal purposes though, maybe as a help to find the "right" sound. Sort of an updated sound to the classic tracks.
