What's all this hush-hush hybrid line up business?
pure speculation...
not even...
wishful thinking

i know they used to be pretty close...I think (from what I have read in published stories) they are still close, but Zakk wanted to work with Axl (basically had joined the band), and Axl wasn't ready to tour etc. in 97-99 (was trying to figure out how to make a record without Slash). So, I think Slash wasn't happy that Zakk was going to take his place, naturally. Zakk and Axl are pretty close though, from what I gather---hung out and recorded in the same studio over the past few years, and have mutual friends. There are stories to be found online where Zakk discusses hanging out in the studio with Axl and listening to the songs a few years back.
i also read in an interview with zakk when black rain came out, that he they were gonna call the record "chinese demOZcracy" cuz it took fucking forever to make the album.. then throughout the interview he kinda axl-bashed a little bit...

that's what puzzles me, bucketfan...
he'd be a great rhythm player for guns... but how on earth could axl have heard that solo in rehearsals and not have been, like.."robin.. take that acoustic... ron.. it's yours..."
"BETA!!!... call slash!!!"
oh, wait... axl doesn't really attend rehearsals, does he?

yeah.. some solo's are just iconic... hence the scom solo staying intact...
patience is another one... robin is a gifted musician, but based on his work with NIN, i don't see how axl thought he would have been a suitable replacement for slash on lead... but, then again.. he WAS kinda on a nails kick at the time....

Not bad. I'd replace Brain with Josh Freese though. But just my opinion.
ooooh... good call..
i just saw freese the other day on the cover of some drumming mag....
there was something on it so you couldn't flip through it at the newsstand...
but i peeked... and it said: Josh Freese...NIN..
the NIN was initially covered, and i got a little excited for a sec....then, SHIT..
