Re: Guns N' Roses Names Dj Ashba As Band's Newest Axeman
very very very lukewarm to this....borderline not happy at all.
Who should they have picked? I know you're on my side of the fence in that you are interested in the core line up that recorded CD in 2001-02, but its pretty obvious in 2009 that there's zero chance of that line up existing again.
The Bucket/Finck/Huge era is officially over.
Is there some sort of middle ground that would have pleased you?
Re: Guns N' Roses Names Dj Ashba As Band's Newest Axeman
This thread at mygnr says that Ashba has done work on Slash's new solo album!!!!
that is a bit of interesting news
Thought Sixx and Slash were drug buddies after a fashion so its not surprising that Slash would've met or hung with DJ while he was in Sixx AM....nor that Slash woulda asked him to jam on a few tunes
Re: Guns N' Roses Names Dj Ashba As Band's Newest Axeman
also lends credence to the GnR/VH tour? this from a week ago
I just read this latest rumor,
http://www.metalsludge.tv/home/index.ph … &Itemid=42
Guns N' Ashba - could it be true?
We posted a Axl N' Roses update on March 5th >HERE<.
The post included a rumor that Ryan Roxie (former Alice Cooper guitarist) was given an audition into the Gn'R camp. This rumor seemed to have some validity based on direct phone calls we received noting our comments caused a "shit storm".
Now in more recent developments Metal Sludge has been on the receiving end of more rumor. This time it's naming DJ Ashba of SIXX AM as a likely candidate to play in Guns n' Roses. Believe it or not, there is also talk of a possible stadium tour with Van Halen.

Re: Guns N' Roses Names Dj Ashba As Band's Newest Axeman
So this was the final nail in the coffin for me.
I loved Buckethead, it was hard seeing him go. As long as they have Robin right? Cool.
Bumblefoot came, I was like nice guy don't really like him in GNR.
Robin goes on tour with NIN and doesn't you know confirm or deny his GNR status. I was alright with that, always a faint hope he might come back.
Now that this news has hit, I am done with this band.
It's bad enough this promotion for the album was terrible.
After seeing this new band with Buckethead in 2002 and the Hammerstein 2006 line-up. I can't support this ridiculousness.
I can't wait for Axl's blame game.
Long live Bucket and Finck.

I would have been down for Doug Aldrich, but he is too big for GNR.

I'm on the negative side of the fence here too but don't really care to go into details whilst the mood here is so positive 
Its nothing against DJ personally, just kinda see this as irrelevant until the band is actually out on tour playing live (and mixing up the setlist)
