Topic Steven Adler

[Koek]

Yesterday I read here a message form someone who contacted the booking agency for Adler. He stated that he cannot say anything due to legal issues, but only that Steven was OK.

I noticed this message is vanished! Was it bullshit?

Also a new article popped up on the net which states that Steven injured his back and rehearsed with GN'R (Mick Wall), see link below:

Hope he's OK and we see him soon, wether with Adler or GN'R.

I really appreciate the respect and privacy rules and I totally agree it was way out of line to contact the agency for this matter.

[GeorgeSteele]

Whatever health issues or injuries Adler may have suffered, that's certainly private, but the rumor that he was rehearsing and set to perform, that's fair game, no?  I find it hard to believe, but regardless, that's quite a BFD.

I knew Mick Wall would crawl out from under his rock eventually

It would be great if Adler was in at least as a guest appearance on a few gigs,More importantly where the f##k is Izzy,just because Slash is back in it's seems to have appeased all the Johnny come lately fans who deserted them from 94 till  now ,no concrete facts have been revealed as to why he is not on board just speculation and so called keyboard warriors giving their so called expert opinions.If he's declined it fine ,but hopefully he might play at a few shows during the tour.

Well really hope this injury to Steven isn't too bad and he can guest some songs soon. Hopefully either in Vegas or Coachella. Wonder what these other surprises Mick is talking about. I'm thinking many guests on tour. Not just from Matt and Gilby but other stars. Angus wouldn't surprise me. Nothing would at this point.

Honestly this steven adles stuff is getting tiresome as a human being i hope all is well with him health wise but i could care less if he plays 1 song or none at all i like the diversity of this current band old and new

Agreed.  I'm tired of talking about it.

I stayed up all night to watch some dude Periscope from across the street.  And at no point did my mind wander to the topic of Steven Adler.

I don't think it's ok to contact Alex Grossi unless you want to book one of his clients or you need him to replace the lead guitarist in your 80's metal band.

Well said.

I think there are far more interesting things coming over the next days and weeks.
I hope he can get his life running the right way.
I do not know him personally nor do I have the any insider infos so I can't say anything else than that.

I think we should focus on the music and enjoy it - everything else including these assumptions on someone else's health is in my opinion stupid and not needed right know.

So you'd be annoyed if I posted Axl's cell number on the board?

[Thorned Rose]

Maybe the topic is annoying for some of you because people just truly want to see the "happy go lucky" fun drummer Gn'R had at one point get a fucking show or a few songs or something?

He has wanted this longer than anyone else... it is happening, so naturally... fans want to see him play drums a few times. It isn't that tough to understand.

I mean who "doesn't" want Adler to play like 1 show or a few songs on some shows? Why would you not want that?

Annoyed is the wrong word.

No matter whose phone number you post without their permission.

My own issue, and I'm a nobody, is a quote from Axl years back about how even something small with Steven isn't worth it because of the headaches with all the lawyers and his mom getting involved. That could be one. Or it could be he was rehearsing with them and got injured and needed surgery.

I love Steven and I wish him the best. I hope he comes out ok and even better then before. And if he plays with them, I'd be more than happy. But Frank is an amazing drummer, he's been doing a kick ass job, and I'm very, very happy he's here!

[D-GenerationX]

When Steven lost even Duff's support, that's when you knew he was cooked.

That story about him getting shitfaced at the airport before their flight really summed it up, I think.  Dude needs to grow up in a big way.

[dmathski]

Really bummed to hear Steven and his back injury. If it's true and he needs surgery I would assume he's out for the tour but just doing a quick google search it seems it really depends he very well may be back in time for some shows.

Show of hands.

Hahahaha. I injured my back once.
Falling off a bar stool.

not really. unless one of the other guys broke his back because he pissed off everyone during the rehearsals.
