GN?R Reps Confirm Ron ?Bumblefoot? Thal Has Left The Band

[FunkyMonkey]

The interview was conducted before DJ quit.

So you mean that the band might not have plans for 2016, like he said, because of it?

Loosing the only lead guitar player left in the band may change your plans. 

[jarmo]

Might change them, yes. Might not mean they changed completely.

I just said the interview was conducted before DJ quit so things may have changed.  

[jarmo]

Yes, and I'm curious what you think changed.

Since the interview was conducted, the last lead guitar player in the band quit.

[ITARocker]

This from Richard, however it's dated the day DJ quit so things may have changed?


LRI: Cool! Are there any immediate plans for Guns N? Roses or are you just doing your thing until Axl calls and says he is ready to go?

Richard Fortus: Yeah, there are no immediate plans for Guns N? Roses. I have heard from our management that next year we?re going to be working. I?m hoping we?ll have an album out next year. That would be great! Then we are supposed to be doing some touring. Until then, I?m staying focused on The Dead Daisies!

"i hope" "i think" "i don't know" "Maybe"...

Never embarassed?

Richard is a better lead player for Guns style than any of them....I am still leaning and hoping for Robin to come back....Bucket too but that is a way long shot. Robin and Richie Rich could have done it by themselves back in 2006....I think we will be alright.

[TheBaconman]

Yes, and I'm curious what you think changed.

Interviews are weird

When was in taken

Was it live

When was it posted

Was it out of context

Video interviews are always the best

[HBK]

GNR The Best !!!

Here's some fodder for you to chew over and debate.

Have fun kids... 

Good news!
bring on 2016!

[DeN]

ahah great post from Tommy

new LP for 2016 

[14 Yrs Of Silence]

I'm starting to believe that their intentions are to release new music in 2016 and follow it up with a tour.  I'm guessing that they're already looking for new guitar players as we speak to tour behind it.  DJ must have left in part because the new album wasn't looking like it was going to include any significant contributions from him.

Of course all of this is GN'R, so even this scenario is indeed their intentions, things don't always go as planned, so one can understand why they're not sharing more details. 

I just hope everything that they're currently working on now works out.

[Sosso]

Tracii was actually a part of the original line up 

But yes it would be interesting to see him with GN'R again

That is not Tommy Stinson's official FB page commenting ( https://www.facebook.com/tommystinson ).

It is a personal account by the name of "Tommy Stinson". I believe it's an impersonator. Here is the URL: https://www.facebook.com/walkeralford
The other account involved in the conversation is this: https://www.facebook.com/HappeninHarry .

On July 30th, "walkeralford" wrote on FB: "I finck its time for a GNR reunion of sorts. Who'd be the Brains behind that operation?!".
I think no one within GN'R would say anything like that on FB. Plus, a Brain return would be almost impossible at the moment.
There's a twitter account "@walkeralford", which is full of GN'R related content, but it's definitely not Tommy's.

So I think whoever posted these comments is not the real TS.

Spot On, Thank you for posting this 

No Rumors needed!

[jarmo]

Correct, just some attention seeker using the name Tommy Stinson.

Just curious why the news that GN'R has confirmed Ron has left the band is not in the "latest news" section, along with DJ's letter.

[sky dog]

Just curious why you care so much.....they are gone. The thread should be moved to Dead Horse at this point....arguing semantics with Jarmo on a daily basis doesn't change anything.

[FunkyMonkey]

It was just a question, not directed at you.

I wasn't arguing semantics with Jarmo.  I was not sure what he was asking from me.

[jarmo]

It's always tricky with unnamed sources.

But in this case, the news itself is kinda old....
