Feel like with any band like this the issue comes down to money. Maybe Frank was asking for a raise? Even with the best drummer in the world, do they think the product would be so much better they’d sell more tickets? Probably see a marginal increase with a Matt or definitely Steven, but a relative unknown? Something doesn’t add up that they’d go 9 years with the guy then decide to can him. I’m not buying it’s just that Frank “can’t play.”

Hypothetically if there were only 2 options and it was frank stays or frank leaves and it’s NOT Matt or Adler, I’d rather Frank stayed.

I think the most recent tour was We’re Fn Back or something. Like post covid. But yeah, absent an album, it’s the tour they’ve been doing for 9 years now.

Basically a quarter century of being on GnR message boards and we’re still doing this shit. Good on them. They win.
