A few years ago at lost 2 at concerts in less than a month! So? The audience was also fine with Pitman, Paul Huge, Dj Ashba, Melissa... What does that mean? And more importantly, how is that related to your constant attacks to Steven? Criticizing Frank at every opportunity is fine but mentioning the valid reasons Alder isn't the full-time drummer is an 'attack'? I just think it's ridiculous that Axl and Slash are back together, playing stadiums, sounding great, and everything from the reviews to the band's demeanor to the detail put into promotion and the merchandise is overwhelmingly positive and some people are bitching because the drug addict drummer from 1990 is only getting guest spots. Just now, Kasanova King said: People outside the stadium are saying it was a perfect show. Wow wow wow. Do they know Steven Adler wasn't the drummer and they played some Chinese Democracy songs? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They updated it so it says the full words now. See my attached video. But the clip they use is at an inconsistent tempo, so it makes it hard for the fans to get it right. I don't know why they don't have it at a consistent speed. Maybe they try to have it start slow and then speed up, but they're not going to get 50,000+ people do be able to do that right. IMG_1151.m4v Edit: the attached video doesn't seem to work, but take my word for it, they replaced the G N R with Guns N' Roses.

Frank is playing in the fn' band, some people complain 'cause they're watching the show and they don't like the way he plays. You can agree or not but they have a reason to make those comments (not saying they're necessarily right), unlike you who always talk shit about Steven out of the blue. Someone says "Frank is messing up the tempo" and you answer that Steven is a drug addict. You never mention any valid reasons as of why Steven isn't the full-time drummer, you just bring up his disease every single fn' day, which makes you a piece of shit of a human being. You can twist it all you want to try and make it look like you have a valid point, you don't. If you disagree with those who state that Frank has tempo issues then tell them that, but stop bringing Steven and his demons when that has nothing to do with what's being talked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I've mentioned the valid reasons why Adler isn't the full-time drummer before, but if you'd like I'll do it again - he's a raging drug addict, to the point where band full of raging addicts thought he was unreliable and fired him 26 years ago. He spent the next 26 years ranting, and raving, and whining, and complaining, and filing lawsuits and going on television shows blaming everyone but himself for his problems. Three years ago, Duff asked him to open for Loaded and he went off on a bender on that tour, and then, as usual, criticized Duff for getting mad at him for it. He has proven, over, and over, and over again that he's erratic and unreliable and Duff, Slash and Axl decided not to have their multi-million-dollar reunion tour depending on him because he's unreliable. Good enough for you? Because that's a valid point. If Frank has temp issues, which 90% of the audience doesn't seem to know about or mind, that's fine - you can point that out as your reason for why he shouldn't be the drummer. And then I'll point out the reason Alder shouldn't be either. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just one of those things he throws in there sometimes, like 'Home fuck'. Not a big deal really No It really Is not a big deal and I don't think the casual fan who has been tailgating In the parking lot for three hours prior to Guns N Roses and who are now shitfaced Is thinking my God he needs to stop using that line because It Is ridiculously stupid and It doesn't fit the theme of the song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone, while watching the gig, complaint about Frank claiming he has tempo issues. He NEVER said Frank should be fired for this reason and I swear to god, he never said Steven should be brought back neither as the full-time drummer nor as a guest. So you didn't need to point out any reasons for Steven not to be considered, which you didn't anyway, you just made a sarcastic comment putting Steven down, as you always do. So, from what I understand, what you're saying is every time someone criticizes Frank, you'll answer mentioning Steven's disease. Are you really that stupid? 10 minutes ago, Kasanova King said: Axl nailed Coma....fucking nailed it. He didn't seem to struggle with the final part this time, it was awesome.

Although It Is hard to Imagine him screwing up this time If given the opportunity. With drugs, I guess you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People pointing out that Frank has tempo issues isnt being mean spirited. You on the other hand, constantly shitting on Steven Adler is in poor taste and annoying. everyone on here knows his history already. You dont have to keep using that as you excuse to be an asshole. straight up. It doesn't change the fact that he still kills it on drums after being a hardcore addict for 25 years and having an 8 ball induced stroke. The homes is right, no one brought up Adler until you did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recapping Adler's storied history of addiction and erratic behavior is "sarcasm"? He wasn't considered because he can't be trusted to be the full-time drummer of a tour of this magnitude. That's not "putting him down", that's just reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
