Robin leaving? Just touring?

[leatherebel]

You guys should leave this to rest. Robin is so happy with what he is doing right now. Why can't you be happy for him? He deserves at least that.

For all those so called fans wanting Robin to not tour with GnR tells me two things   1. They don't know what there talking about   2. they wish there top hat friend would comeback.

I am perfectly aware of the fact that Axl wants absolutely nothing to do with Slash and probably vice versa. I'm just saying that there are way better players out there than Finck, players who are probably capable of doing Slash's solos justice instead of brutally murdering them. Besides, Finck only co-wrote one song out of the fourteen songs that ended up on Chinese Democracy, namely Better. So atleast in my opinion he could be replaced, since he is currently unavailable anyway...

There are no ''Slash's solos'' in GNR. Slash doesnt own any solo. The guitar solos featured in November Rain, SCOM, PC, etc are GNR's solos, not Slash's.

Slash is no longer in GNR and he will NEVER return to the band. Face it.

And I think Robin plays them all way better than Slash.

[Limulus]

ahhhhh, come on. Slash himself wrote killer solos like in SCOM, Estranged etc. no need to take away credits where they belong, in this case to Slash.
Finck playing better than him? sure, exspecially SCOM
on topic again:
Finck might be out: "move on", next hired musician please!

[estebanf]

Well...

if you can find one SCOM solo done by Slash with half this energy, adrenaline and power... gimme a shout

please, dont bring any of those sloppy, slow-motion, boring vids from Tokyo 92 or Argentina 92 (*)...

ye ur right bout energy and adrnaline but nothing like Slash playing his own music, dont get me wrong, love how Finck plays and hope see him on stage again, but SCOM was born in my heart with Salsh in it, and the Chinese Dem. album with Robin, BBfoot & the Bucket, I dont think Slash will play the new songs like these guys do, bcuz he didnt create them.

I get you. You're just trying to stir shit up here because you hate Robin so much that you like to take cheap (and dumb) shots in this thread to express how much you'd love to see an average Slash wannabe instead of him. All because Axl prefer to work with Robin instead of your hero.

Yeah, sure.    I'm just speaking out my honest opinion rather than being Axl's yes-man and taking a dump on all the people who made GNR famous and because of that I'm not a real fan, don't know shit about shit and am just trying to stir shit up?

someone should take a dump on you

Garry would do it for only 5$ 

[thesloth]

i think if you want to talk about that fucking guy you should go to the ex-members section.

Yeah I guess it's pretty safe to say Finck is out.

it's pretty safe to assume that he will be back for GnR Tour... Thank you.

he definitely has a better shot than that other guy, whose chances are ZERO.
hate idiots who are stuck in the past.

When Tix go on sale for tour, they usually go onsale atleast 5-6 months ahead of time.  That saying Guns N' Roses have not made a announcement dates, there for nothing is indicating that Robin won't be stuck with NIN the same time.   Robin is done in August, so I doubt NIN will interfere with GnR's plans to tour.  For all those so called fans wanting Robin to not tour with GnR tells me two things   1. They don't know what there talking about   2. they wish there top hat friend would comeback.

Most U.S. and Canadian bands do about 3-4 months announcements with exception of festivals ect.  After all NIN just announced the full tour lineup for June in March which is 3 months.  With some of the larger bands especially when it is a World tour then often one will see a spread of shows for the entire year anounced at the same time so some are 3 months away and some are 12 months.

Axl's yes man    so your saying that your heartbroken that Slash decided to leave GnR. When in actual fact you wish he was still in the band, when in fact its nobody's fault but your own top hat recycled riffs hero's fault, but lets play the Axl blame game.  Pretty much your dissing all the fans of GnR of today when write your post, so when VR goes on world tour with Clay Aiken you can start posting again in the ex members section.

No, that's not at all what I'm saying. I just refuse to blindly back up every single decision Axl makes, including takin fifteen fucking years to make an album, demanding sole ownership of the GNR name and turning the band into a dictatorship, making it impossible for his old bandmates to work with him anymore, not showning up at concerts which leads to riots etc...

When in actual fact you wish he was still in the band, when in fact its nobody's fault but your own top hat recycled riffs hero's fault, but lets play the Axl blame game. 

Is it? Axl wasn't to blame whatsoever? It usually takes two people to feud...

I'm not dissing anyone, again I'm just speaking out my opinion. Freedom of speech. What you're doing is taking childish cheapshots at me and I refuse to go along with that...

This argument really does belong in the Dead Horse section. So I'm not going to continue it..

As for the current GNR lineup, regardless of some of the stuff I've said in earlier posts, I actually liked Chinese Democracy, it has a lot of potential and some great and beautiful moments on it. Just takes a while to grow on me..

[ppbebe]

I never can get slash nutswingers line of thinking...when we'r e simply speaking out our minds like we love robin's tones, we're called Axl's yes men.

And if some doesn't they are a slash nutswinger???

[ppbebe]

doesn't do what?

[Alan]

if someone doesn't like robin's tone they get called a slash nutswinger....

[ppbebe]

na but if they call people who like robin's tone as axls yesmen

[Voodoochild]

Yeah, sure.    I'm just speaking out my honest opinion

You know what? It's not an honest opinion because you refuse to understand WHY Robin is/was in the band. And it certainly wasn't just to replicate Slash's playing, so you're demanding someone who can play it note-per-note is useless and non-sense.

If you just say "ok, I don't like Robin", it's your honest opinion. But then explaining how there could be a replacement "capable" of playing Slash's work is being a smartass.

rather than being Axl's yes-man and taking a dump on all the people who made GNR famous

Please, explain how someone who likes Robin Finck is an Axl's yes man. Also, explain how did I take a dump on the ex-members.

and because of that I'm not a real fan, don't know shit about shit and am just trying to stir shit up? 

You're not a real fan because you're posting on the current band section about the old lineup. And yes, you're trying to stir shit up. To be honest, you did quite well, hence your last post about the blablabla its all Axl's fault.

[Koskenkorvasieni]

Okay, forget everything I said earlier. Here goes: I honestly don't like Robin's style of playing the old songs, even though I do think he does quite well on the new ones. I grew up listening to Guns N' Roses, been a fan since 1991. I learned to know and love the old songs and the solos the way Slash played them and Robin's style is just way too different for my liking. Honest opinion. Happy?

Because Slash fans can't hide the fact that they hate it when people praise the new band.  It's not the real Guns N' Roses yada yada ...
