Its 3-4 albums of ideas and unfinished shit.. If it were awesome completed stuff, it would have been on CD.
DJ's "run it by Axl" line sounded like Slash 94-95....

That's not necessarily true, as many believe CD was a "leaks" album released to appease the record company and get out of the tremendous debt they had built up.

It's gonna play out like Slash '94-'95 too.

DJ has NO CLUE what he is doing right now.
It just doesn't work that way man. He could spend months writing stuff, walk in the door and have Axl throw every bit of it out in seconds. Not to mention, just because Axl approves some of it, doesn't mean he won't turn around and sit on it for years, before even dusting it off.
Axl can't even get his fuckin' vault out the door, let alone new shit, although knowing DJ's stuff with Sixx:AM, and that bitchin' single from Bumble coming up, they do have some chops potentially to write some good shit. So I feel a bit better about the creativity of the 2010 band than I used to. That's not counting what Tommy & Axl can bring.
I'd love to see the current band get from the vault what they want to redo, rearrange it, write some new stuff, and get it out there, and then just turn around one day in some down time and release the vault as 'lost sessions' in a box set, NIN-style.
It's pointless to keep re-recording Buckethead songs when he hasn't even been in the band for seven years. It's time to move on, if we're gonna move on. Otherwise reunite. You can't tour AFD & CD for decades on end.
Yeah, I have no interest in the current band reworking the Buckethead era (or older) stuff. They should just go though and find the best mixes and dump it all in a box set and/or iTunes edition. Maybe find one or two of the remaining "big guns" and polish them up enough for a couple of singles to promote the set, but just put it the rest of it all out there as-is. And then get to work with the current band on some new ass-kicking songs.
