Buckehead was a heart of newgnr

[Eternal Flaming Sword of Death...]

Buckethead was brought in when Robin left. Robin was Axl's initial choice and he is still there, so I think they are gonna be fine. Fortus is equally as capable. Hell, Buckethead didn't really have that big of a role in the shows that I saw, except for his solos. I don't think that he was in any way the heart of the new Guns.

I wondered how long he would last. I think Finck is a better fit anyway, although I did like Bucketheads playing, I think that Guns will survive without him.

Axl is trying to make these guys into Guns N' Roses. He wants it to be a band, and it seems to working for the most part, seeing as no one has left except Bucket. I think if any one signed up not thinking it would be a long haul,especially some of the newer guys, then they were crazy.

You guys are so pathetic, i made a post a while ago that if Buckethead was not in GNR then nobody here would know or even give a shit about him, well it looks like i was right.

I bet some of you still think CD is coming out as well.

I think Buckethead is an amazing talent, and for that it's a shame he's gone.

But, I think the people here who are really upset about him leaving are refusing to admit the truth, which is that newGNR is Robin's band first. Axl is the heart. It's Axl's band and Axl's project, but Robin is the lead guitarist. Buckethead was brought in when Robin left, and I bet when Robin came back there was no talk about not welcoming him. Since Bucket was already on board, GNR ended up with 'two lead guitarists,' which was cool, but let's face it, we've all seen them play live, one of those two leads played a lot more. Robin.
