Title: What About RIR? Post by: MeanBone on March 17, 2004, 07:24:43 PM is the show canceled?? i can't believe this. even if the show's canceled they won't say anything, cuz apparently BH left over one year ago and only now this is in the news.
and i don't think they refund tickets! THIS SUCKS Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: slashnbuckethead on March 17, 2004, 07:32:25 PM i guess the fact that buckethead has left would mean the show was off but if he left so long ago maybe there is hope that the record is or has been worked on. i think fink is plenty good so if its fink fortus axl and some other dude on drums i think we are still in good shape for lisboa.
Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: Izzy on March 17, 2004, 07:35:12 PM Who said BH has been gone a year?????
No way will GNR be at RIR4, no fucking way Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: jarmo on March 17, 2004, 07:37:09 PM When we found out Paul Tobias had left, Richard had already joined the band.
I don't think it's impossible to get a replacement if they need one before RIR4. Also, Gilby had to learn a lot of songs in a short time when he joined in 1991. /jarmo Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: badapple81 on March 17, 2004, 07:40:22 PM True..
And how long ago did that guy at the Bucket show say "no buckets at GNR?" A while ago.. Buckets could have been gone a while now, and a replacement already found ??? Title: Re:What About RIR?

Gilby will be fine... Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: Kiki on March 17, 2004, 07:42:08 PM Exactly, and if the story is true, GN'R knew already after Philly that Buckethead wanted to leave, so why bother to book RIR4 if they knew they're not gonna be there?
Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: //JK75 on March 17, 2004, 07:47:05 PM According to Mysterion RIR is still on !!!
and BH left in 2003 I understand Title: Re:What About RIR?

U could say the same about the aborted tour...why go on tour to cancel half way through??? Title: Re:What About RIR?

Maybe they booked in RIR4 after the tour/after Bucket left, knowing who the replacement is and that it'll all be cool? Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: kockstar99 on March 17, 2004, 07:54:52 PM They never confirmed they would be at RIR..
So if they dont show you cant say they ever broke their promises or didnt show.... Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: Will on March 17, 2004, 07:59:56 PM It always surprised me that the date was never confirmed by Sanctuary/ Geffen officially (not via Mysteron -- I trust him but they can tell him whatever they want, when they know they don't have to be quoted on MTV.com or anything)...Supposedly Bucket took his decision around dec. 2003...the Rio-Lisboa date was confirmed (in the RIR's camp) on dec. 6, if I'm not mistaken...which means Bucket might already have told Axl he was leaving at the time. It will be different but I'm pretty sure Robin and Richard can handle that, they're good guitar players. I'm more concerned about Brain leaving (which is very likely).
As for Lisboa, keep your fingers crossed gunners! :) Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: jarmo on March 17, 2004, 08:00:05 PM They never confirmed they would be at RIR.. So if they dont show you cant say they ever broke their promises or didnt show.... I think they know about RIR, it's not another Hungarian "show" where the tickets were sold at some mall and the RIR organizers wouldn't advertise GN'R unless there was a contract. /jarmo Title: Re:What About RIR?

Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: Malcolm on March 17, 2004, 11:21:15 PM GNR know about rio,they will be there,and itl be an awsome show theyll have a big announcment about how there gonna debu there new guitar player at rio
Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: Flyguy_1ca on March 17, 2004, 11:25:57 PM Buckethead became fed up with GUNS' inability to complete an album or tour and stopped working the group late last year, his manager said.
and if indeed GNR did confirm the'd do RIR 4 on Dec 6th. That means Bucket left right around the time they confirmed that.....now the question is what happened first?.....did bucket leave then it was confirmed as a plan was already in place to replace him? Or did they confirm it..hoping it would be enough to keep Bucket around...only to find out it wasn't...this may also help explain why GNR has not confirmed there appearance at RIR4 themselves. Unfortunately, I believe the 2nd option more likely. Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: MR.BROWNSTONE on March 17, 2004, 11:33:29 PM You never they might have a replacement for BH already. No one ever knows what's going on with Guns N' Roses. Rock In Rio would be a great place to show off a new member and album. 8) We might not get any news intill May around RIR.
I'm sure everything will work out just fine. :) I'm just wondering what about all the part BH did on the album. :-\ Title: Re:What About RIR? Post by: Flyguy_1ca on March 18, 2004, 12:03:56 AM you still have hope?..... ???
Based on Axl's previous history..he's no doubt deleted all of BH's work and is currently re-recording them himself with the aid of Gary Sunshine :) |
