Hmm. That's kind of interesting. Would you be ok with Axl doing a thank you like this: "Thank you to Buckethead, Brain, Josh, Robin and of course the current members of Guns N' Roses for helping me keep this thing going"
For sure. I mean had they actually released three albums (new era GN'R and had some success) I might say well that era should get a camera pan.
It should really be about the seven guys: Axl, Izzy, Slash, Duff, Steven, Dizzy and Matt.
None of that two drum kit shit either, that is cheesy. Just have Steven do the Appetite and Matt the UYI.

I would say it is best for the CD era and DJ Ashba to stay at home. They don't deserve the cameras to pan in on them.
It should be about Guns N' Roses 1985 - 1995. Those guys deserve to be on stage.
None of this playing any Chinese Democracy songs.
If Axl wants to thank them in his speech cool, go for it.
Even though I think Steven Adler is a clown, the show should be about the Appetite core guys.
Matt should likely get inducted, as should Dizzy.
Uh Gilby stay at home, he was a touring musician.
#393 Re: Guns N' Roses » Robin vs. DJ Ashba » 719 weeks ago
I guess it is because I am a more of an alternative fan that I favour Robin.
I can't stand crap like Motley Crue.
Hope Axl keeps Guns in the Alternative / Industrial / Queen (styled Rock) direction.
#394 Re: Guns N' Roses » Robin vs. DJ Ashba » 719 weeks ago
I would like to find out the reason why Robin left the band for a second time and is he in Axl's I hate Slash book styles?
#395 Re: Guns N' Roses » Robin vs. DJ Ashba » 720 weeks ago
The band needs a third time is the charm for the Finck Tank.
#396 Re: Guns N' Roses » Robin vs. DJ Ashba » 720 weeks ago
I firmly disagree with the Robin bashing.
If memory serves me correct he has seven co-writing credits on Chinese Democracy.
I am not talking the albums line notes that are not right. I remember a thread being all about the real credits.
Robin was accessible during NIN's last tour, from pictures I saw.
Robin to added a seriousness to GN'R and the guy is a talented songwriter and someone that is non-flashy.
DJ embodies what I hate. He just comes off too contrived and is trying too hard by putting on a big show.
The real reason on why Robin Finck left hasn't been given.
And I really think it is total bullshit to say that Buckethead and Robin Finck bailed for no reason on the band. How can you lose two of your guitarists from your revamped line up and in my opinion the axe falls on Axl for that one.
The band in my firm opinion has been taken down a notch without Robin on board. Bad enough Buckethead left.
Yeah they put on a good live show apparently. But the two lead guitarists (Sorry Ron, I do actually like you), are covering superior musicians work.
Also you don't see DJ jumping into the crowd like Robin did in 2006.
I'll take Crab dancing over an asshole smoking a cigarette with a top hat trying way too hard to be from the 80s and like Slash any day, thanks!
#397 Re: Guns N' Roses » Hamilton, ON - Copps Coliseum (Nov 28, 2011) » 720 weeks ago
I was really tempted to see this gig. But I think it would be ruined for moi personally, as I last some them in New York and Robin was in the band still.
Hope it is a good show for all that go.
However, I couldn't put aside my dislike for DJ Ashba and the lack of the Finck Tank.
#398 Re: Guns N' Roses » Testing a GNR Fan theory » 723 weeks ago
Yeah Madagascar I had the Rock In Rio III boot.
It has been my favourite from the CD era next to Oh My God.
To be it is about rising above all the shit that is thrown your way and moving on.
#399 Re: Guns N' Roses » What's Different this time? » 723 weeks ago
Robin's image in 2006 was pretty rock n' roll.
He has a uniqueness and doesn't look like a poser like DJ Ashba.
The guy also is all over Chinese Democracy as well.
I think it is a laughing stock that no Chinese Democracy guitarists are with the band and that Brain is gone.
Wish the tour all the best though, just not my cup of tea.
If you can't keep one of your Chinese Democracy guitarists in the band it is a reflection of oneself and not the guitarists.

I saw the End of Days and then bought the End of Days soundtrack. Oh My God was what got me into the band.
