Holy fuckin' Hell On Earth this axeman is ABSO-FUCKIN-LUTELY incredible!!

You have got to be fucking kidding me. Where the fuck did he come from?

Some other planet where only Guitar Gods exist??!??

A soulful solo followed by the cleanest SCOM opening riff ever.

No disrespect.....but Slash who?? Robin who?? (I love 'em both!).

I'm a little pissed, just a little, pissed off at Axl for keeping this guy hidden from us for nearly a year.

Fuck it I'm goin' to Canada to catch a show....or two. Just in case they don't plan on comin' to the lame non-GNR-appreciatin' United States of America.

I've watched every video available of the Taipei show and I've come to the conclusion that DJ "Guitar God" Ashba is simple FUCKING AMAZING!

Let's hear it.......SHOW SOME LOVE for DJ..........

Well he wasn't THAT unknown. He played for Bands like Sixx A.M. or Beautiful Creatures.
But you're right, he was fucking awsome

I knew of him from Beautiful Creatures, but to perform LIVE like that.......his studio work just doesn't tell the whole story.

not going to do a vs thing but Thank God we have DJ Ashba in GNR

his solo before SCOM made my jaw drop


I cannot wait for the next album, I pray Axl cowrites with DJ, cause DJ is an amazing songwriter and mixed with Axl and his ability to wring every drop of ability out of someone... it could be SCARY what they come up with.

Axl has an incredible knack for melody. Seriously, his melodies will stick with you for days.

And judging from Ashbas solos (and his shining solo spot), Id have to agree that if they worked together on any future projects, the results would be nothing short of amazing.

I totally love Robin, but I knew DJ would be a great fit. He sounds freaking great. Axl sure knows how to pick them!

Haven't gotten to see much clips yet Sad 

I'm sure DJ is awesome in them, can someone be kind enough to PM me some of the better quality clips out there cuz I haven't had much time lately  Embarrassed

no need to make this a vs anybody thread.  DJ is the lead guitarist in the band now and it should be about him Smiley   And I'm one of Robin's hugest supporters.

This is NOT a thread about any former or other members of Guns N' Roses, this is about DJ Ashba.

Post about him, if you want to talk about ex-gunners take it to the ex-gunners section.


Thank you.

I had never heard of DJ before January of this year... but I was sold just a few days after. Have you guys listened to the beautiful creatures self-titled album? There's DJ all over it.

It was like this: in January there were those rumors that a guy named DJ was auditioning for Guns and I was like "wtf? DJ? what does this have to do with a guitarist?" I had no idea it was an abbreviation of Daron Jay. But I saw his picture posted at the forums and had a very warm and good feeling about him. Decided I wanted to check on the guy and I spent countless hours that day lurking at his site, forum, searching youtube and downloading songs, getting to know DJ. Thought he was awesome but held my breath because after all he had only auditioned, didn't mean that he'd be picked.

Two weeks later he was being announced as GnR's new guitarist and I almost cried of so much happiness. I literally jumped off of my chair and leaped around the house! I knew he was the right choice. He is just what GnR needed to be whole again. I was already his fan by the time he joined GnR so I decided to make him a fan site that same day, with the material I had gathered so far. And since then I was waiting so that we would see with our own eyes what to me was just a hunch... DJ is awesome and has the exact kinda feeling that GnR was lacking. He was the last piece missing on Axl's puzzle. I can't think of a better GnR line-up. After this tour, they gotta hit the studio for god's sake!!!!

One thing I really loved was his tone on Chinese Democracy. He played pretty close to the sound of the album and it sounded great.

Also liked his rendition of KOHD solo.
