Bach is not going to front Velvet Revolver. I don't think this is the big news either cause like russ said it was reported a while ago.
I'm pretty sure the big news was he and the Nuge getting back on good terms and Baz getting sober again... Nothing to do with VR.

in which case bumblefoot may be done for the time being as well since he was replacing bucket.
IMO bucket/fortus is the best combo available so that would be cool with me
Would be cool to go back to a guitar tandem. If they do that and drop a keyboard player, it would look like a real band again.

They should get Seb's younger brother Zac to be the singer... his days as a goalie are over, a change of careers would be great. haha

Maybe he was pissed when he found out Bucket's parts were still on there.
i don't know richard plays bucket's parts live. that shouldn't affect the finckster. besides, didn't he say bucket would remain on the album a while back also?
I was being sarcastic. 
I'm of the opinion right now that Finck's still in GNR and everyone's freaking out prematurely.

So Pittsburgh lost and Montreal wins the east. I don't know about what everyone else thinks, but I think Pittsburgh played to lose today. They knew that Ottawa was in trouble and decided it would be easier to face them instead of a healthy Flyers team in the opening round... They didn't even play Crosby today. In any event, it's great to have Montreal on top after all these years. Mission 16 W starts Tuesday.

oh no, richard's leaving the band!!!!!!!!!1111111
The band has a tour planned and Fortus mentioned wanting to play with them. If GNR doesn't have anything planned for this year, it wouldn't surprise me if he continued with X Japan on tour. Of course, that wouldn't mean he's out of GNR.

Richard commented on these performances:
GUNS N' ROSES Guitarist Comments On Guest Appearance With X JAPAN - Apr. 6, 2008
GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Richard Fortus has commented on his guest appearance with reactivated Japanese rockers X JAPAN during their three reunion shows at the Tokyo Dome at the end of March.Also performing with X JAPAN at the Tokyo concerts was former LIMP BIZKIT and current BLACK LIGHT BURNS member Wes Borland.
"I'd like to thank X JAPAN and their fans for the kindness and generosity they showed me while I was in Japan," Fortus wrote on his web site. "It was such an incredible honor to be asked to share their stage! This was an event that I will never forget. The last night especially was very magical and incredibly emotional.
"Hide [X JAPAN's influential lead guitarist Hideto 'Hide' Matsumoto who committed suicide in May 1998] was a star of such magnitude that nobody will ever fill the hole he left. It was an honor to be able to pay tribute to him.
"I hope that i am able to do more shows with X JAPAN in the future."
X JAPAN will play its first-ever concert in the U.S. on September 13, 2008 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The band will also perform in Paris, France on July 5.
Video footage of X JAPAN's performances at the Tokyo Dome can be viewed below.
Fortus and fellow GN'R guitarist Robin Finck played X JAPAN's "Endless Rain" as part of their guitar duet during some of GN'R's Japanese shows in July 2007.
X JAPAN's new song, "I.V.", topped iTunes' daily charts upon its release on January 23 in both Overall Sales and Rock categories.
X JAPAN is the first Asian artist to chart high worldwide on iTunes and the Billboard music site Billboard.biz.

And I haven't even mentioned the moral dilemma of playing in two big bands at the same time. Maybe Axl is just nicer than what I am.
He wouldn't be... GNR isn't doing anything. It would be different if they had a tour planned or something. But as of now, there's nothing planned... it's like when Tommy played with Soul Asylum. He didn't leave GNR, the band just wasn't active.

I know, it's a fucking ripoff... soon enough the cell phone providers here in Canada will get in trouble for anti-competition and conspiracy. They've been doing shit like this for too long.
I want the Sanford and Son theme! that would be sweet.
