Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
If You Got No Right was on CD it would be one of the best songs on the Album. If Slither was on CD it would probably be the best straight up rocker. If Beggars and Hanger Ons was on CD instead of Shackler's Revenge, again, CD is a badass album.
You Got No Right
Beggars and Hanger Ons
Slither
Fall to Pieces
Sucker Train Blues
Loving the Alien
Back And Forth Again
Serial Killer
Plus the good Izzy and Duff tunes you have a great album.

Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
I think 5 O'clock itself is much better than CD or all the other ex-Gunner catalogue combined. CD is No. 2. on my GN'R-related album list though, among with ALG. I think Izzy's material is weak, but he could put out a killer best of. I enjoyed Duff's Believe in me, even with its flaws, but the rest is just dumb punk music. Gilby's Pawnshop is a good album, too.
I almost forgot about VR... they had great material for one album, but it's sliced between two, not to mention that Messages didn't make any of them. (And the Mutherfucka riff is better than anything on Libertad).

I have no idea how you can go on and on about this.
That fucking video is over ten years old. Let it go.

Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
To all you Axl apologists who go on and on and on..
I have one point for you.
What did the many players who joined GNR with a career & a profile of their own end up doing?
Answer: Leaving.
No matter how you all bawl, babble and scramble to defend your idol against the evils of Slash, that inescapable fact remains and speaks volumes about the way things must have to work inside GNR.
All the snotty posts and carefully picked video clips ain't going to change what the entire world thinks went down.
It's time to see it for what it is and let it go.

Very poor choice for words on that one, given the guy with the biggest profile... http://www.gnrevolution.com/bandm.php?id=3328
Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
Agreed. Stinson's been with the band for over 10 years, and was an established artist, and people also forget Dizzy Reed was a nobody, just like GNR's original members were, Dizzy's been with the band for nearly 20 years. Brain also was an established artist, who's stuck with the band for nearly a decade.
Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
Yeah but those guys were receiving pretty big checks to sit around and not do shit though. So just because they didn't officially "LEAVE" doesn't necessarily mean anything.
who would leave a high paying job with minimal work?
Freese, Buckethead, Finck, Tobias
Freese- cause he's a session guy he likes moving from project to project
Finck- NIN is more fun
Tobias- Doesn't like lots of touring and stuff
Buckethead- Likes to release an album ever three months (not that that's bad)

Re: Slash Basically Blaming Axl
Finck was quite comfortable with doing nothing for years. But enough is enough, I think, even for a guitarist with minimal ambition. I don't know how long Tommy can stay with this band if the tour plans will fail or the tour will collapse.
