Goodbye Ron (???)

[rebelhipi]

True. Students don't use wikipedia as a source. Not reliable enough.

Depends on the student

Wikipedia was the first to break the news for the appetite for democracy release last spring, remember.

Im not saying its wiki is official but i think its the next best thing.

Theres a very interesting rumor being floated around on the other sites about a possible replacement for Ron....

I will seriously lose it... I'm not sexist... but please be false.

Explain this "rumor" as opposed to being like Ron and GNR by being so vague.

it's not hard to find... I don't want to link another site on here... but admin's from other forums have been discussing some chick named Oranthi ( I had never heard of her)

and obviously its just a rumor ... i have no clue as to how or why it started

[Sosso]

Bumblefoot telled it by himself so i assume it's not just a rumor.

The really important question is: Will he come back to be band or not?

Robin Finck has left the Band in 1999 but he came back in 2000.

Once there was this Rock N Roll band rolling down the street. Time went by and it became a joke!!

Not a joke....

Just very very altered. Ha

If the rumor ( which it's a rumor) is true, she doesnt really bring anything to the table besides being a good touring guitarist. Her resume is filled with her playing guitar on tour for legends.

Don?t worry. She has a really good resume. She has palyed with Alice Cooper, Carlos Santana, Michael Jackson and recently with Richie Sambora.

I Heard a Little bit of her playing but she is really good at playing rock. She has been playing guitar since she was a little girl

IF she is the one. It is still a rumor

that's all fine and well... I have adjusted to all the lineup changes and departures over time with Axl...I have long come to terms with all of it but if he has a female guitar player... I can't roll with that...

I hope its bullshit.

This is Guns N Roses right? If you guys are cool with it... all the power to ya.

If Ron does not come back for the next tour, I hope Richard takes on more of a lead role... no additions.

I don't see anything wrong with a female member.  Guy with a top hat, guy with a mask and bucket, guy totally emo, very strange guys.....it's all the same.  Nothing would ever really surprise me.  If the music is good, I could care less.

Well this is not Guns N Roses and it hasn?t been in like 20 years. Axl can call his band whatever he wants. That?s how I look at things. So  everyone comes and goes. That?s part of the deal, fine I?ll take it. I?m not gonna miss BBF the same way I don?t miss Buckethead, Fink, Brain or Paul Tobias.

Well, some youth could be good.  DJ is younger as well.  Maybe GNR will be like Little River Band....a band that has seen members come and go more than GNR and have lasted a very long time.  The one thing with keeping the same members, or only getting members who fit a certain age range is that eventually, they get old....possibly lose touch with musical tastes, popularity, have less energy, desire, passion, and ultimately die.  Maybe having much broader age ranges in a band could be a good thing and create buzz from all sorts of age ranges, and people...as opposed to being a band full of aging rock stars who appeal to only those at the same stage in life as them.

[rebelhipi]

Do people really care if a GUITAR PLAYER is a man, woman or a tranny?

I only care about the music, and band chemistry.

And no i have no idea who this chick is.

[RnT]

So, Ron updated his Instagram account and "Guns N Roses" is not there anymore.

[JeffK]

His Twitter account doesn't say Guns N' Roses anymore either....just solo artist and producer.

[GnR-NOW]

If Ron doesn't want to continue in the band that's fine. The show will go on

    Why don't they make an announcement one way or another instead of all this guessing and rumours? It happens with any job when there's going to be changes made - everyone speculates & usually it ends up being right. Tell us if he's in, out, considering whether to continue, he's going to get sooo many questions from fans until something is announced. I will be sad though, he's very approachable & caring & his personality will be sorely missed in the band.

It is absurd, I know. This band operates like Area 51.
