Apollo Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 that's the way it should be!!! a discreet man .. a gentleman who doesn't need to promote himself with his past in the band I love that a former band member doesn't talk about intimate! Bucky you're great! ... (some mercenaries should learn manners )Do you actually know what the word mercanaries means?And you seriously think that former band members shouldn't talk about bands that they used to be in? Where is the logic in that? I love that you are a fanatic worshipper of Axl Rose and his band, but your lack of logic sometimes is disturbing.Oh, this should really set you and some others off. Speaking of ex-band members talking about a band they are no longer in. Izzy should SHUT HIS F*CKING MOUTH, as he hasn't been a member of GNR for what, 20 years? I love how instead of saying "no comment" to the GnR questions, he gives answers to them. Clearly just using the GnR name to try and sell his solo records. What a media whore sellout. He should just shut the f*ck up and ONLY talk about his current band. Right?http://chinese-democracy.blogspot.com/2008/11/exclusive-interview-with-izzy-stradlin.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtle Signs Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) I love Bucket's work on Chi Dem. What I never got was some people's obsession with his image. A good player is a good player,period. If you don't like Bucket because of his gimmick, you are not a fan of music. I also don't get people who have the need to bash Slash in this thread. Do you think you will get "party passes" by making fun of him? If Slash is asked a question about GnR, for the most part he answers it. Seems pretty simple to me.I also noticed the vast majority of people who bash Slash never saw him play with GnR. Maybe if they had,they'd feel differently about him.

A.J. Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 So let me get this straight: When Axl keeps quiet, he sucks and is an idiot 'n stuff, but when Buckethead keeps quiet, he's great? Hmmm ... interesting ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlRose14 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 God he was/is annoying.This,I will never understand the fascination with Buckethead.Weird guy, but arguably one of the greatest guitar players in the world. Though Slash is solid at blues, IMO Buckets a better guitar player. The guys a freak in life, and especially on guitar. His solos were phenominal, maybe too good for GNR. But IMO his playing made me forget about Slushy real quick.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's hard, cause some ex members haven't talent as Bucky.... so they can only talk about GNR to be in the news Bucky I love youuuuuuu Die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spunko12345 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 The best work he ever did was in Gn'R and that's not saying much.His best work can be found of his solo stuff. Epic at times.Maybe it will aggravate Axl that Axl spoke both good and bad words about Buckethead, all the while Buckethead stays silent on Axl Rose In that case he joins a long long list of people who aggravate Axl.

Redhead74 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) all in all the dudes a great player. but i never thought the begnining of this > suited GNR. i like how when the techno music starts and axl announces bucket it quiet as hell.i'm not a big fan of all of his shtick either - but think of it this way, what does the general public think of when they think of NuGNR? Buckethead. Sure, that was partly because of the VMAs, but that was also partly because Bucket was very unique and NOTHING like the old band. At the time, I don't think people were ready for it - but in retrospect the '02 lineup had their own unique image and sound and really did seem to be striving to be their own band. Even when Bucket played Slash's solos, he made them his own. Compare that to now, when basically they just play them note-for-note. I dunno, Bucket at least had a distinct image and for better or worse people still remember him as being one of the faces of the new band.Agreed. The public were definitely not ready for it! In retrospect you can see that someone should of taken responsibility to 'introduce' newGNR properly. There was such a contrast from the old to the new and the new had this abstract quality to it that was never going to go down well. It was destined to crash and burn even before it got started IMO. That was quite amateur on the part of the bands management and the record label. The only people that responded well are all here and have a much more open minded attitude to music. Lessons should be learnt from that.that's the way it should be!!! a discreet man .. a gentleman who doesn't need to promote himself with his past in the band I love that a former band member doesn't talk about intimate!
