Estranged Reality Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Not laughing at Ron per se, but that GIF is hilarious. If this is true then yeah, it's sad. It's also a bit scary to wonder what kind of guitarist is going to replace him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantomas Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 This could be one of two things.1) He puts the years he is active. So next year it's 2006 - 2015. Like how a website copyright is generally year of creation - current year.2) He's quit and this is an extremely lame and passive aggressive way of announcing it. If it is 2, then he needs to just leave and stop all this is he/isn't he bullshit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Estranged Reality Posted August 7, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2014 I've reached out to Ron. I'm gonna see if he can confirm or deny the rumour. Not sure if I'll even get a reply, but worth a shot. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Just touting for a bigger pay check. Typical Ron.This could be one of two things.1) He puts the years he is active.

magisme Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 This is a win for TB. One less paycheck to cut and a built in excuse for the next few years of Axl doing nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maynard Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 In this interview:http://www.khaleejtimes.com/citytimes/inside.asp?section=citytimes&xfile=%2Fdata%2Fcitytimes%2F2014%2FAugust%2Fcitytimes_August6.xmlThis part is interesting:While Thal is effusive in his praise for Point of View, he’s rather more tight-lipped about the current situation of Guns N’ Roses. He labels the band’s schedule “completely random”, shrugs helplessly when asked about the state of a follow-up album to Chinese Democracy (2008) and refers to the notion of another LP with the band in the past tense.On whether he has submitted compositions for the group to record: “I wanted to get together as a band, I didn’t want to submit my songs for the band to play. I wanted the band to write as a band so it would truly be a band. But we’re just too busy with touring and other things, and it just didn’t happen."

DieselDaisy Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 He seems to be under the misguided premise that he is a band member and not a scab. In fairness, it took Buckethead about four years to work this fact out. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoGer99 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 But somehow I can understand Bumble.... Who wants to be in a band for 8 years with 1 album without writing credit ? (Exept Ashba) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManetsBR Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Good point. But why wouldn't he add "former guitarist"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lio Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 It's everywhere. Facebook and Twitter too. Why would he edit all his profiles for nothing?This. Unless it's a way to put pressure on TB or whatever, as was suggested with previous posts/comments.Basically, all the signs point in the same direction. But if it's true, it would be a lame way of saying you're leaving. How did that go in the past, with BH and Robin ? Was there some kind of official statement when they left ?

DieselDaisy Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 100,000 to 200,000: he is back in the fold.This stuff has been going on since day one with BF. BF likes to moan to look cool but he never ever leaves which probably means a pay increase. So its a pointless discussion. He never will carry through with his moaning and cryptic puzzles aimed at the fans. He likes to do this stuff for some reason. At least Ashba just says, ''I am a cock rocker, give me the cash''.

Robert G Durant Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 That's a heartbreaker. Ron is why GnR plays Don't Cry and Estranged again. He was the only one in the band who thought Chinese Democracy should sound like Appetite instead of 90's industrial. He's the only one who aggressively, publicly stood up to Axl. And he's the only one who communicated with the fans.I really hope he reconsiders. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
