Monkey might like this.
I do indeed. Big fan of fortus - love his playing! I think GNR with him and Slash will be great!

I sort of hope some more music surfaces from then or is redone by the new-old-band.....
Only because only getting CD out seems like a poor use of time in Axl's legacy....
Bottom line is they will hang up the boots soon for age or death...so it's time to get serious about putting out some more records before it's too late.

I will secretly admit... my favorite versions of Mr. Brownstone & YCBM was UYI-era, BECAUSE of Sorum's drumming. I just like his sound on those live.
Yeah that's what it's about for me! I love steven cos he was the first..but at the end of the day the band has always sounded best for me with Matt.
But maybe I'm one of your Zep people....I just like sorums massive drum sound.

I hope it happens. I think the last piece of the puzzle is the music question.
Without recording this seems more for novelty value. Recording adds to the legacy - it makes it a real band not just a run of shows in between other projects.

It blows my mind that we were all chatting here 8.4 years ago - what a journey this has been.

lol 438 weeks ago - although I agree with what I said then - I love the CD songs and was glad they came out - but you can never go past Axl and Slash together.
#1869 Re: Guns N' Roses » Do you want Adler to be with GNR in Vegas, Coachella, Mexico City..... » 528 weeks ago
OK..I'm sort of half way with you on that....I agree that the AFD line up would have been just as good with some other drummer (although I know many who praise steven's swing style or whatever) and I agree about Brain - he's awesome technically but it doesn't do much for the songs. And I agree that Gnr is a guitar/vox band and you can basically swap in and out drummers...
But to me the hidden drum talent in GNR was Sorum...I think he's underrated in terms of his contribution....his drumming on the UYI and TSI records was awesome....and he was also really distinctive in VR.....

To me Frank Ferrer is the definitive GN'R drummer
You know I love you, but how does that figure?
The line up that got them famous and recorded their biggest album - AFD - had Steven.
The era where the band achieved the greatest global fame, recorded a world first #1 and #2 album drop, before going on one of the most notorious and epic tours of all time was presided over by Matt.
The mythical Chinese Democracy album features 86% of it's drum parts played by Brain (and perhaps inspired from Josh Freezes earlier work).
The most bootlegs of the bad feature Brain - Including Rio 3, the whole of 2002 and all the important shows (Like RAR) of 2006.
Frank only plays on 2 CD songs, and then the 2009-10 tour, and then the 12-14 vegas shows in recent times.
To me it seems like far from the most definitive GNR drummer, Frank is actually the most inconsequential (not his own fault mind you), but he is far less significant than either Adler of Sorum to the legacy.
