Chinese? It's got some pretty good musical structures.

Catcher is almost perfect.
If the world manages to maintain a whole track on a base of 2 notes.

I think that's the thing with GNR.

Axl provided the structure for a lot of songs. Then the band went and filled that structure with kick-ass musical "content".

The new guys just haven't the type of brain it takes to work like that.

Bucket is more a structure guy himself.
Finck was a textures guy cool atmosphere in his playing but that's about it.
Bumble seems to love playing notes but not be too bothered about how they sound.
Fortus who?

The perfect post slash lineup would consist of Axl laying down awesome musical structures.
DJ churning out cool riffs to hold up the structure.
Bucket weaving in and out of Dj's stuff.

And that's it.

Tommy Stinson's got it. Whatever it is. He's just an awesome player, on par with Duff if not better.

Drummers are drummers, I get the feeling Axl wrote the drum parts himself anyway, they seem integral to the musical structures in most songs.

Sounds more to me like Kim is contributing less. That everyone is giving guitar parts and he's just playing them like a guitar monkey.

It was mentioned in his DVD last year, the prototype restaurant has been open since at least 2010. Good to see that the model works.
I really like the idea of a scraggy bum sitting at a fancy candlelight table eating caviar.

I'd say that this experience could re-program a homeless guys entire psychology "If I do some work, I can get these rewards".
