I agree with you in a way...although Gilby stepped up big time and saved the band after Izzy split with 2 weeks to go before a MASSIVE tour....Gilby learned 40 songs in less than 2 weeks....but I do think Steven has more of a right to the GNR name than Gilby...actually on supernova Tommy Lee was the only one who had a real right to use his bands name...Jason Newsted was Lars and James bitch for 14 years and Gilby was in the band for a little over 2 years...they just used the name to get viewers...my only concern with the VH1 thing is that is a show that features Vanilla Ice, Ron Jeremy, and China....not too thrilled to have a legendary name like Guns N Roses mixed in with it..

I really hate being classified a GNR fan with some of u on this forum who know jack fucking shit about this band even though u think u do.


How can Brain and Frank and these fucking guys be better than the guy who has some of the greatest drumming ever Laid down on a fucking CD?


Sayin this is almost as fucking dumb as sayin Bumble or Robin are better than Slash.



Have u ever listened to Appetite For Destruction?

I dont mean listen to Axl sing or Slash p lay guitar, I mean Really fucking listening to the CD where u hear everything.

Steven has some of the greatest Drum riffs EVER.  His drumming u can actually sing a long with. He has some iconic fuckin Drumming ability.

The drumming on the Illusions is nowhere on the level of AFD and nothing I have heard from Brain or Frank live measure up to Adler's brilliance.


I hate Steven Adler with a passion. I think he is a piece of shit washed up loser who blames everyone but himself for his problems BUT I REFUSE to discredit what an amazing drummer and what a great contribution he made to one of the greatest albums ever made.

So called GNR fans need to show this guy's skill some Fucking Respect and need a lesson on GNR history.

I dont mean to sound like an Asshole or to sound rude, but WHO cares about TEchnical ability.

Jesus Christ I get so fucking sick of this.


The drummers at Nebraska were all way TECHNICALLY better than Tommy Lee on that TV show Tommy Lee Goes To College but are they ever gonna be or make up some of the greatest drum riffs EVER?


What the hell has Brain, Freese or Frank ever wrote that will stand the test of time?


Adler's beats on Appetite For Destruction are legendary and amazing and have yet to be duplicated since.  Is it a coincidence that the GNR Feel left when he got fired?


UYI songs do not have the swing, they dont have the groove that Appetite has and that is cause of the drumming.


U don't have to like Adler, LIke i said, I hate the guy, but at least give the man some credit.

had he not fucked his self up with drugs, he very easily would be considered one of the greatest rock drummers ever.

Stuffs on a forthcoming album called Chinese Democracy.

UYI songs do not have the swing, they dont have the groove that Appetite has and that is cause of the drumming.

Agree, but that's also because the band didn't wanted to rewrite AFD again. They went for a new sound.

had he not fucked his self up with drugs, he very easily would be considered one of the greatest rock drummers ever.

Probably, yes.

Wow, loads of people bagging on a guy who played on AFD! Well done. They guy might be messed up but hes achieved more in his life than I reckon most of you bashers have or will.

He was in Guns n' Roses for like 7 years. Playing on three albums + Live Era. Don't you think he deserves to be on Behind The Music? I think it's only interesting to hear what he has to say about his position and the band. And what's the problem with the rise of VR? ::)

Steven Adler's groove is awesome. The catchiest drum beat ever has got to be Paradise City.

Yeah, you can't deny what Steven did for Guns.


I just got done watching it on TV, I was all, "Wtf, is that Steven? And it was. I saw him back in January 2006, so I recognized him almost immediately although he looks so different than he did in 1987. Kinda cool, trashing a "room" in honor of GN'R. So I came on here to post it, but there was already a thread.  : ok:

Did u even watch the Rise of VR show?

He just acted so snobbish to the guys trying out like he was up on a superstar pedestal and they were beneath him and like in The "fall To Pieces" video, Its a real deep emotional song and video and Matt has to pretend to be a superpimp with his chicks in the corner........... I just don't care for him.


It did piss me off on BTM when he acted like he was offended and like pissed cause GNR had pianos............ I signed up for a rock band not this.......... COME ON, he wasnt complaining cashing those fat checks was he?  Just seemed so arrogant and ungrateful.

Fuck if he didnt like the pianos he should've quit. Drummers of his ilk are highly replaceable.

YOU are going to give ME a lesson in GNR history....I would love to hear this lesson coming from someone who thinks Steven Adler is the greatest drummer in the history of GNR....Dude he was a mediocre drummer...EVERYONE knows that...Part of the reason Axl re-recorded "Appetite" in the late 90's was to get rid of the drum parts...which he said sounded "too 80's"...Sorum, Brian and Frank have all played his drum parts from the "Appetite" songs better than he did...and now he is pimping himself out on VH1 with Vanilla Ice and Ron Jeremy...he makes me want to throw up....

The drumming on the Illusions is nowhere on the level of AFD and nothing I have heard from Brain or Frank live measure up to Adler's brilliance.


I hate Steven Adler with a passion. I think he is a piece of shit washed up loser who blames everyone but himself for his problems BUT I REFUSE to discredit what an amazing drummer and what a great contribution he made to one of the greatest albums ever made.

So called GNR fans need to show this guy's skill some Fucking Respect and need a lesson on GNR history.

YOU are going to give ME a lesson in GNR history....I would love to hear this lesson coming from someone who thinks Steven Adler is the greatest drummer in the history of GNR....Dude he was a mediocre drummer...EVERYONE knows that...Part of the reason Axl re-recorded "Appetite" in the late 90's was to get rid of the drum parts...which he said sounded "too 80's"...Sorum, Brian and Frank have all played his drum parts from the "Appetite" songs better than he did...and now he is pimping himself out on VH1 with Vanilla Ice and Ron Jeremy...he makes me want to throw up....?



Part of the reason he re-recorded appetite?


U show me that fucking interview where Axl says this and Ill delete my fucking account.

U are making THAT bullshit up.

His drumming sounded too 80's? What the fuck kind of comment is that? That is retarded.

Rose: Yes.

Loder: Whoa.

Rose: Well, with the exception of two songs, because we replaced those with "You Could Be Mine," and "Patience," and why do that? Well, we had to rehearse them anyway to be able to perform them live again, and there were a lot of recording techniques and certain subtle styles and drum fills and things like that that are kind of '80s signatures that subtly could use a little sprucing up... a little less reverb and a little less double bass and things like that

How anyone can argue that the other gnr drummers are better than steven is beyond me, they all lack a certain groove/feeling that steven had.

U guys ac ted like Axl said Adler was mediocre and the drums sucked and this and that.


Axl said some parts could use a little this or that but in NO way did he suggest Adler was mediocre or a shit drummer.



I guess Slash's solos in PC and SCOM should be redone also since they are too 80's?


I love Axl but he was an absolute fucking moron with that statement.

How can something sound TOO 80's or TOO anything.

AFD is a timeless masterpiece and he shouldn't fuck with it either.

I find the fact that he would waste so much time re doing that kind of sad and pathetic.

As if he hoped having the new members re-record Appetite would make them better players and figure out how to write great songs themselves.

Post by: AMS on February 03, 2007, 08:43:17 PM
Axl is an egomaniac now. It started during 1989, and it grew during the Illusions. He is whacked out of his mind now.

All the original GN'R members are fine now except for him and Steven. Steven blew a (what was it, $2 million?) royalties check from AFD on drugs. Even though his drumming was irreplacable on AFD, he is kind of a loser NOW. But back then, he was my favorite member.

Axl doesn't know what he's doing messing with the original GN'R material. He had the original "It's So Easy" music video, in which he punches out Erin Everly,? mastertapes destroyed in fears of getting sued. He re-recored Welcome To The Jungle for the Live Era CD. And either Axl or the record company, probably Axl, got rid of the original Sweet Child Of Mine video, and made a black and white one, which was completely cheesy.?


And by the way, Steven Adler in the AFD era was the perfect drummer for GN'R. Without Steven Adler there would probably be no Slash. He taught Slash his first chords, and started Road Crew with him.

Adler's drumming on AFD is great. Way better than Sorum could ever do. Listen to his drumming on Contraband.. ew.. even on the UYI records.. sounds like a robot is hitting the drums on a bunch of the songs.

Don't see how you can hate on a drummer with a great groove like Adler.

And dude your "Axl must agree with me too because he wanted to re-record AFD" comment lacks logic. He wanted to re-record ALL of AFD. Does that mean he hated Slash's work too? All he said was that he wanted to get rid of some of the reverb and double bass. Was he gonna tell Loder EVERYTHING they were gonna do to re-record it? No. He just told him something off the top of his head. And even then, that's a production complaint... he doesn't like the way it was mixed and produced. Doesn't comment on Steven's playing ability at all.

Adler > Sorum
Sorum = Drum Machine

As for the new GN'R drummers.. Brain and Frank. They kill Sorum too. Probably better than Adler too... but even then, Adler put his own touch on Appetite and it's a classic partly because of the groove he and Duff gave to the rythm section.

Just admit it, you're a Adler hater for no reason.  : ok:

I just don't care for him.


It did piss me off on BTM when he acted like he was offended and like pissed cause GNR had pianos............ I signed up for a rock band not this.......... COME ON, he wasnt complaining cashing those fat checks was he?? Just seemed so arrogant and ungrateful.

Fuck if he didnt like the pianos he should've quit. Drummers of his ilk are highly replaceable.

what about when they were picking singers, and he acted like he knew more than duff/slash about it. he comes off whiny to me...

And yeah that's what I was getting at. Everyone has sold out.. so who cares? If Adler wants to show up on Surreal Life and hang out on VH1.. let him. I have no idea what the guy is like personally and would enjoy to see it more. Hell.. the show made me think Vanilla Ice is cool.. (and he is!)

Point is.. he's a great drummer.. lots of rythm and swing. I don't see how people can think plod and clod Sorum is better. But each to his own I guess.

His drumming was (is) catchy. He was (is) GREAT.  :D

Yeah, Matt is more of a machine-like drummer.   :hihi:
I liked the robot comparison.   :rofl:
It fits.
But he is good anyway.

I also like the kids that don't know shit about Adler and his playing and like to talk shit about him. It is funny how easy it is to bad talk a drug addict. And since these kids can NOT bad talk Adler for his drumming they always say something about "coke" and "heroin" and "drugs" to put Adler down.  :drool:
These are the same kids that would take Use Your Illusion to a desert island, because they think that November Rain and Estranged are the greatest GNR songs. I'd take one Nightrain to that island with an Appetite for Destruction under my arm. Oh, I would definetely manage to smuggle some GNR bootlegs circa 1986-89. Adler time. Izzy time. Good fuckin' times!

How is the following for a reason not to like Steven . . . ?    : ok:

Former Guns 'N Roses drummer Steven Adler was sentenced to 150 days in jail on Thursday for attacking two women in separate domestic violence incidents, which also violates his probation from a 1997 conviction in another domestic violence case.
He pled no contest to two counts of battery in a dating relationship and admitted the probation violation in West Los Angeles Municipal Court. Adler was also sentenced to three years of summary probation, with the conditions of undergoing a year of domestic violence counseling and a ban on using illegal drugs. Additionally, a protective order was issued by Commissioner Joseph S. Biderman in respect to both victims. Adler is required to turn himself in to the court at 1:45 p.m. on October 29 to begin serving his sentence or show proof that he's turned himself into a city jail.

The two incidents in question occurred on January 27 and on June 7, respectively. The first erupted from a verbal argument spawned between Adler and a 43-year-old woman in his North Hollywood apartment over his alleged drug use. The victim was allegedly thrown against walls and furniture during the attack. She called 911 for assistance, however, Adler had already left the premises and couldn't be located at the time.

He was eventually found in the spring, living in a condominium in Century City, California, where he was taken into custody on an arrest warrant regarding a probation violation. He was then booked and released after posting bail.

The warrant had been issued in August of 1997 for failing to appear in court for a February of 1997 domestic violence case, which involved the woman he was living with at the time. In the 1997 case, Adler pled no contest to disturbing the peace and was sentenced to four days in jail. He was also placed on three years of summary probation, with a condition of attending 52 Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.

In the spring arrest, Adler was charged with this probation violation as well as for the January incident. While he was awaiting his trial, he allegedly attacked another woman at his condominium on June 7. Adler allegedly pushed the 35-year-old woman's head into a wall and threw her clothes off a balcony during a dispute over money.? (Wikpedia)

This is the way Steven conducts his personal life, pretty fucked up!

Hi well I like Steve Adler and unfortunately I cant view the VH1 cause Im in the UK and even online it wouldnt let me view the link that someone kindly pasted in the adler forum.  Damn.  Maybe in time technology will advance a bit more.

Earlier on in  this thread some people were running Adler and each other down  (I havent read all through it, aint got time).  In his defence, I agree with the ones who said leave the guy alone, at the same time I know we all like to have a bit of a conflab on these threads so I dont read too much into it, I am sure Steve doesn't either, if he even bothers looking.  ;)

Sometimes I wish I knew Steve and could be his close mate but hey, I guess I live a wee bit too far away for that lol.

I for one wish Steve all the best in what he does, and all of you guys take care too, have a great weekend.  Hopefully I will get time this weekend to suss out my multitracker (not losing my rag of course, not !!).

I couldn't care less about his personal life. People make mistakes. Specially Rock n' Roll people. As far as I know, in some point of their life Axl and Izzy also have been accused of beating on women. That's fuckep up. Some of my favourite musicians have done lots of stupid things in their personal life. As long as they don't kill someone or really hurt someone, I just don't care. What I care about is the music, and Steven's music is GREAT!

So do you hate fucking Axl?

He's been accused of worse.

You just hate Adler cause you're a punk! Everyone in GN'R has done stupid shit.

Axl has beat women (and if you read about his court case with Stephanie Seymour you'd know he did MUCH worse/weird things than Adler) http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/articles/showarticle.php?articleid=32

Izzy has been accused of hitting women and was an adict.

Slash was an adict.

Duff had a serious drinking problem and was an adict.

The point is that you know nothing about Adler besides some civil court case you read up about. I don't hate any member of GN'R based off something I read or don't know for sure. What I do know for sure is that Sorum's drumming and attitude seem nothing special to me.. and I know that for sure.

Let's face it, you have yours, I have mine and they have theirs.

Sure you have your view and I have mine. But OBVIOUSLY I am NOT saying it is okay to hurt people and stuff. Of course it is NOT OK. It is stupid and people who do that should be punished. But when I listen to music, I am not looking for great human beings. I can find great human beings in my home and when I am with my friends. They are great human beings.

What I am saying is that it is pretty stupid to bad talk Steven because of drugs or misbehavior. We all know (well, maybe some of you guys DO NOT KNOW) that ALL the guys in GNR did similar or WORSE stuff, just like -Jack- pointed out on his thread.

(-Jack-, I couldn't have said it better).

It is a very known thing that disturbed people (that sometimes happen to be alcoholics & junkies) can sometimes do great music. Guns n' Roses is a perfect example. I don't think there were as many disturbed people as Axl was. And I could go on and do a list for you: Dee Dee Ramone, Bon Scott, Keith Richards, Johnny Thunders, Aerosmith... These guys were fucked up on alcohol and drugs for years and yet they made great music. If being a great human had anything to do with great music, we would be listening to Martin Luther King greatest hits, The Nelson Mandella's Experience, and etc...

Good point made by Pugdog.  So have any of you guys or girls had any dealings with Steve Adler recently, now he is older I am assuming he has calmed down somewhat but not knowing him I dont know that.

Talking of people doing stupid things, I have done some pretty stupid things in my time, same as us all in one way or another, we wouldnt be human.  Rock stars, unfortunately are noticed more for this and of course media make a lot more of it than it really is.

I wouldnt say no to a fling with Axl or Steve (not both at the same time lol), but I would say no to violent behaviour towards me, been there, sorted it out and moved on but it isnt nice when it happens to you so I do sympathise with anyone who has endured it.

Right Ive waffled enough now, take care, Daff xx

IzzyDutch -

Of course, absolutely, no surprise there - they could have said that the sky was falling and you would agree, if only to disagree with me. 

And as I told Jack, I don't talk trash about the other guys because I do not know them.  I only knew Steven. 

And IzzyD, if you take a moment to read the Wikpedia chapter, please note that I am the woman first mentioned - the one that Steven lived with.  You are always telling people that I am this old broad that was only with Steven for 3 months.  In fact, that is the second woman mentioned in the chapter.  She lived in the same building as Steven in North Hollylwood.  So, I am hoping - only hoping - that you will get your facts straight and stop making statements about me that are untrue - true of someone else, but that is not me.

I knew you would reply on my short post! I bet you've missed me ;)

As for this line:

In fact, that's me repeating what other people have said to me who know Steven - I'm sure you know who.?
But I'm not gonna get into this whole thing again, Jack and Luciano have said it well.

That's nice you begin about this but I haven't even spoken to you in several months now on this board so stop coming up with that kind of shit and respond properly to Jack and Luciano's post!

Izzy D - I too knew you wouldn't be able to resist responding to my posts.?

With regard to Luciano and Jack - please know that I will handle responses to posts the way I see fit.?

You are correct in stating, however, that you and I have not corresponded in months, but you have responded to posts of others by talking trash about me and frankly I do get tired of you making untrue statements about me - even if your defense is that you heard it from someone else - yes I know who he is and his claims to be a close, personal friend of Steven's.? ? ?

I think a lot of threads are misinterpretated - having read through them I can agree, and disagree with points that each and every one of you have put.  We all have opinions and have our own ways of voicing them.  Afterall, be pretty boring if we all had the same opinions and ideas wouldnt it.
