From 1997-2008, I want you to list everything Robin did to communicate with the GNR fans.
Lame poems on his site don't count.
Ron did more for the fans in his first month as a member than Robin did in 11 years. Hell, he joined our site like 2 weeks after joining the band and he knew there was a heavy Bucket fan presence. Finck wont even join his own little fan sites filled with nothing but nutswingers where his participation would have done wonders for those communities, causing them to die a quick death.
Hell, back in 2004-05 when all the members were actually giving interviews on various sites, guess who the only person was who kept his trap shut?
you avoid the points too. axl did no promotion months in advance. axl let robin go back to nin. axl couldn't keep the band together just days before the album's release. axl didn't live up to his responsibilities as a leader of the ship. axl failed in every aspect of the process. yet you talk about ron. ron's a tool. he's not issue. axl is. axl failed getting the job done for the fans who waited 17 years for the album

Axl did a chat. Even if it was damage control, it was still more than Robin.
Axl doing the Eddie Trunk interview in 2006, was still more than Robin.
you're avoiding the questions. did axl do advance promotion months in advance like anyone lead singer would do so their new album or debut album would be top selling #1 hit on the album charts? did axl do this for chinese demoracy? did he do it or did he ignore the fans? don't avoid the issue. give me an asnwer: yes or no

Robin will likely never get the chance to shine in GnR, but that is is own fault as much as it's anybody else's. He made the brutal first impression, he left before CD was released, and he ignored the fans. I'm not sure what you expect as a result of that...
that's axl's fault. axl dropped the ball on robin. axl failed to keep robin in the band upon the album's release. axl ignored the fans. axl is to blame for this nightmare

slash was appetite. but slash was all over 4 albums. slash was already established. slash had his chance to shine with the fortune and fame in guns n roses with the public and media. what about robin? when'll robin get his chance?

bumble is bush league. robin plays golf @ the country club. DJ hands robin his clubs before each hole
#48 Re: Guns N' Roses » Who's DJ? » 835 weeks ago
bumble says what axl tells him to, which makes him a tool

Now I can agree on part of this robin thing.
To me his finest hour with the band is his playing on some of the CD songs, I thought he added some good stuff to them. Yet most of his public attention in GNR came from his live peformance of mostly older songs. So yeah - that kinda sucks for him.
We can't really speculate further as we don't know his actual motivation for leaving. Was trents offer just too good? Was there a secret Axl/Robin fight? Was he just sick of waiting? No idea.
The problem is you can't blame DJ for not being Robin - before he plays.
Just as one shouldn't have blamed Robin for not being slash - until he played.If Axl and Slash can't sort their shit out that isn't robin's fault. And if Robin and Axl can't work out a deal to get him back then that's not DJ's fault.
I was open to giving Robin a chance...i just didn't like that he replaced Slash once i heard his rearrangment of the parts. Likewise I'm open to giving DJ a shot....if he gets up there and plays the Slash/Robin parts in a way I think is disrespectful or worse than the records then I'll be the first to say he sucks.
But right now...all we know is that he's a competent guitarist with an interesting history of la rock stuff, which makes me look forward to giving him his shot to impress me!
i speculate there was a fight between robin and axl about when the album coming out. robin wanted it out in 2006. axl wanting continuing perfecting it. that was the end of robin. the shaft. thanks, axl
