Subtle Signs Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Mother Goose has flown the coop. I have no problem with the guy but some people on here make it like he had relations with their mother. That's a lot of hate for someone you don't know in real life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I'm only speaking for me personally, but all I can say is that I've never had a bad interaction with Chris prior to this. He reached out to us with a question, we answered it the best we could and apparently that wasn't good enough for him. If we could have helped him, we would have and we had absolutely no interest in engaging in any sort of war of words with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bio on the other hand is harmless We had been discussing these things with him and even tried to help him get it changed. Came as a surprise that he did this because we have told him many times we have zero control over mygnr.com. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Man,some people on his Facebook posts take "GNR message board loyalty" way too seriously. Anything this guy says they not only agree with but they straight up kiss his ass like he's handing out unreleased GNR songs. If he wasn't hacked,he's got to be out. I like Pitman but there's no reason to insult the fan base like that. Being a professional musician for as long as he has,he should know that KEYBOARD WARRIORS come with the territory.

Eddie Money Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Does this mean that I'm am also a cunt? A big fat juicy one with puffy lips I hope. I would like to express my sincere condolaces to him. I'm sure he'll find a much better gig now that he's free from performing with GN'R. Finally, his statements say it all. This forum is important in the GNR world/inner circle and there is band interest in everything we say, no matter how big or small, no matter how true or false. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I can't believe I'm going to defend/try to clarify Chris' comments but I don't think HE is calling it a cash grab or nostalgia tour. I think he's saying that's what others are saying and the "FU" at the end is for those saying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoke Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I feel bad in that he's part of the period of the band that I hoped like hell would live up to its potential, but never really did. Not his fault. His contributions in the early 2000's were promising. But for this reunion, he doesn't fit anyways. They may not have a firm lineup (at least publicly), but stripping the candidate list down is a move in the right direction at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Słash Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I assume at the moment he himself doesn't knows if he is in the band or not, he thought he could speak on behalf was the band, but he was told to be shut up lol There are chances of him to be there, but at the moment, the only official members of the band are Axl, Duff and Slash. I guess pitman and others will be informed a few weeks before the show if they have been hired or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he's pissed a the press and parts of the shitty fanbase, but he's still in as far as we know. I know you aren't calling the fan case shitty, but I'd like to defend that fan base. There is NO excuse for how GN'R is handled. None. When you have the amount of fans that boards like this have, what else are they supposed to do when they're constantly in the dark? So many people on these boards honestly hope for nothing for the best for GN'R but we know nothing, so sometimes it's easy to assume the worst especially given the past track record. I mean.... a bunch of us have bought tickets, made travel arrangements and worked our lives around these April shows. All of that is amazing considering the fact that we know exactly JACK and SHIT outside of the fact that Axl, Slash & Duff will be there. It's super easy for people to assume it's a cash grab or a nostalgia thing given the facts. If it's not, or there's something else going on, it's on GN'R to inform the fans of that. The fact that dedicated fans are still being insulted because of a situation they've been put in by the band itself is nothing sort of shameful if you ask me. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
