I think anyone who says Scott was the bigger ego in this whole equation is making a bold statement.
After what Slash, Duff and Matt went through with Axl, i'm willing to bet they didn't tolerate a lot of ego well at all. Especially Matt.
#1402 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy number one on Itunes in multiple countries » 938 weeks ago
When I buy it it will go to No. 1 instantly. I have a lot of pull.
You're buying like 500 copies right? 
#1403 Re: Guns N' Roses » GNR Myspace Updates » 938 weeks ago
I honestly would not want to see Slash and Axl on stage together with the new members of this band.

No way is Maddy better than Rocket Queen in my opinion.
#1405 Re: Guns N' Roses » My guitar complaint *spoilers included* » 938 weeks ago
actually slash shreds pretty good on teh NR outro
But Slash shreds with EMOTION dude.
I will never understand these arguments. These people are trying to have their cake and eat it too when arguing about BH.
Buckethead can play any style of music. If you don't agree with that statement, you haven't heard enough of his music. Go listen and then come back with a more informed opinion.
#1406 Re: Guns N' Roses » GNR Myspace Updates » 938 weeks ago
No way Zakk fuckin' Wylde comes in and plays other guy's material. (same for Slash)
I would say Bucket, but without Brain, I doubt it.
Paul would probably be interested in SOME shows, and in the same breath, maybe Izzy would jam on some of the new songs. But even IF that happened, it wouldn't be long term for either, as neither would want to tour in a regular basis.
It's gonna be someone entirely new. Excluding the previous guys, I think John 5 would be a good move.
John 5's going to be touring with Zombie in the near future i believe. Or whenever Zombie's new album is released.
I can't see John 5 doing it to be honest.
#1407 Re: Guns N' Roses » To Bucket, GNR is a 'dirty word' » 938 weeks ago
Axl stagnated Bucket's art.
I just don't think Bucket ever liked the fact he'd never release an album (like the old band, Bucket is a do it and leave it kind of guy), Bucket didn't fit in with the band (rumored Axl & Robin both it was difficult), and he probably didn't ever feel comfortable doing someone else's guitar solos. Alot of what people call "screwing up Slash's solo", was more Bucket trying his best to do his own thing with it imo.
And the album STILL didn't come out.
What's there to be 'positive' about that experience? The only thing he could take with him is "never trust a cracker in cornrows".
I don't even know what to say anymore. I had something to add until i read that last line... and now it just doesn't seem important anymore.
#1408 Re: Guns N' Roses » more promotion - emails » 938 weeks ago
That's way better than the other promos we've seen for this album. That's one of the best album promo comercials i've seen.
#1409 Re: Guns N' Roses » To Bucket, GNR is a 'dirty word' » 938 weeks ago
In my opinion, Robin can't say shit about Bucket. His image was just as weird during 2002, if not weirder in my opinion.
It's not really unexpected to hear that his time in GNR was unpleasent, but you really can't help but wonder what exactly it was that made it that way. I think it's a combo of everything mentioned in this thread.
If BH and Axl had worked together on equal creative terms (ones where Axl didn't have the final say on everything) i think they could have come up with material that is better than what we've heard. I agree that BH wasn't fully utilized in the studio. It's a shame.
#1410 Re: The Garden » Obama calls for mandatory youth service. » 938 weeks ago
At my former high school, there is already a community service requirement to graduate, although i think it's 50 hours over 4 years, not 50 hours per year. That seems way too steep for me.
100 hours for college students? That ain't gonna happen. Most are too busy partying, working and studying (in that order of course) to fit in an extra 100 hours per year into their schedules.
I'm not saying this is a horrible idea, just that the numbers seem unrealistic to me.
