according to his book, slash was pissed when axl fired gilby and started to force feed him guitarists like tobias/huge; b/c for whatever reason, slash just didn't like the dude and he saw no reason to fire gilby having toured w/ him for over two years

looking back, that seems to be the beginning of the end for slash, matt and duff and there stay in GnR


yeah, i dont think they were the same after izzy and steven (fired) left.  But once Slash left, that was it.  Apparently Matt left/got fired after someone made a negative comment bout Slash at rehearsal and Matt backed Slash up.  (after he left).

In all fairness, i can see Slash's frustration in all of this.

only that it really pissed off slash and may have contributed to his desire to leave the band

After Izzy left, it seemed to be Slash that had the say in getting a guitar player (Gilby), but of course it had to be agreed with Axl also.  However, after Gilby left/got fired, Axl seemed to be looking to bring in people like dave navarro and zakk Wylde.  Then came SFTD which you've just explained above and i dont think it all sat well with Slash.

Being a lead guitarist, you should be the one who chooses who is gonna play with you.
No, it should be a band decision.

I don't know the true conditions by that time, but Axl always said how Slash never brought someone worth to write with him. Instead, he wanted to write everything (like he did with Snakepit songs). Also, I can't believe Slash didn't know about Paul recorded parts untill the release of the song. If he cared that much, he could try to block its release.

Well, I don't know, but Duff and Matt stayed for long three years after that.

WTF? I was replying and you come with insults?

Robin left the band in 1999 and came back in late 2000. And Bucket left in 2004 just a month or so prior to RIR4.

Keep the facts straight before talking shit.

Robin interview is fake.  Funny how fans of the old band like to twist stuff around.

yeh, i can see how you would misunderstand about me wanting someone to leave-I just worry ron may get frustrated and end up leaving himself and I asked that question out loud....

As for the Finck interview, i read both last night; the 2002 interview seemed like a continuation of the one you pointed out; and i didn't know it was a fake as it was not clear to me-call me gullible Embarrassed  but the tone of the interview seemed pretty consistent and IMO, to say between 2002-06 that there is definitly NO WAY he could have left and came back seems to me, to be a bit far-fetched given his history

and i may have jumped the gun calling you a nut hugger and apologize Embarrassed hihi (not that you care) - i actually enjoyed all the new members contributions to CD, think the arrangements are excellent, and it is probably the best written, best performed, rock album since the Illusions and would have loved to see all the members perform this live (though buckets whole stage presence does absolutely nothing for me and I find it quite disturbing actually hihi-but his playing on CD is flawless, as is Robins.  I just think the way axl handled the entire 15+ year journey of the album made the GnR name into a bad joke; and if he's OK with that (and apparantly he is), who am i to criticize.  I just think it's a damn shame.

Someone got a little annoyed when he found out his interview "proof" was fake.


Next time you pull this insult shit will be the last.


Locked due to fake interviews and general insults from one "fan".
