If BH quit, why did he do it? Doesn't really make sense to me.

[Booker Floyd]

why would the MTV report be so blatantly false?

Because they actually think blabbermouth has correct info...

I dont think MTV is going to Blabbermouth as a source...

Bucket isnt out people its a big joke. when are you gonna learn

Denial is a sad thing...

[Mysteron]

Where's Mysteron? He's disappeared suddenly...

AA.

Still here

I've not just been reading this thread

[grog mug]

So you still have faith of Bucket being in the band Mysteron?  I know I do...I just wish someone other than mtv would announce this like Buckethead himself/puppet or GN'R fuckin management!

Not caring really. Guitarists can be replaced. Like you, I just wish it was dealt with properly and officially

[grog mug]

I completely agree they can and will be replaced in this band obviously.  But I grew to love Bucketheads playing style from the start.  I thought it was perfect for this GN'R circus Axl has constructed.  I'm still hoping he's in the band...somehow.

[Mysteron]

Well, its good to hear that he did that...but its still not cool to try and portray that you're "in the know" more than you really are.  And the whole "mysterious identity" thing....well, thats just a good way to try and convey that you have some kind of insider credibility...to hide the fact that you're just an everyday joe/josephine like the rest of us.  I think most people on this board have had enough of bogus rumors.  I don't expect to see a new crop of Mysterons on here in the future...people just won't tolerate that kinda stuff anymore.

I is an everyday joe and am not in the know. I can just get answers etc (all explained before)......mysteron relates to childrens tv, not being mysterious

...wow - that's harsh.  Suddenly, your cartoony avatar looks a lot more menacing to me - you can laugh, but it does.

Musicians can be replaced, but at what cost?  If BH has/had an important role in the creation of CD, then will his parts have to re-recorded?  There arent many people in the world who can play like him.

And if he did not have a big role, then all these "I grew to love BH", "This new band has great chemistry!" and other such opinions seem superfluous if he turns out to be so unimportant.  Cogs in a machine.

If the Buckethead Merch were to suddenly be gone off the merch.com ...

That might be a sign... That seems to be the only site they do update....

[Lucky]

It was the official word, but I don't know what you mean by "covering up for Axl". If I remember correctly Doug Goldstein is not longer with GN'R because of that incident.

about that time the rumorrs of Axl's bad hair transplant came out..., and if I think Doug Goldstein was thrown out after he reschedlued the tour for fall 2001 "with out Axl knowing about it"...

BTW why did the say that the reason for the cancelation of the tour is buckethead if Axl didn't even know that there was a tour?!

[madagas]

It is now safe to say Bucket is done with Gnr. He has scheduled concert dates through August 1-alot with Giant Robot which I believe involves Brain. He could be gone too...This is really disturbing me as I hoped Bucket and Axl could work out the issues. Doesn't look that way at all. Another dead year in Gnr land.
