axl666 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 What did this guy actually write in GNR? I know he has a song writing credit for Madagascar and If the World. Did he write all of the music for these songs, or just some of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archtop Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I don't understand how a gag order works if he's out of the band? Kind of hope the Duff story is true. He comes across as really mild mannered, but seems to have an edge, not somebody I would mess with.? Ha, Pitman probably shat himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Money Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 1 hour ago, Bono said: He is an absolute docuhebag and a flat out liar. He was obviously fired. Also isn't he the asshole who said there's no point in making new music because nobody buys it anymore. Seems this douche was more than willing to leech off the legacy of GnR's past hits while he was in the band but now he's criticizing them for being a nostalgia act? Well then what does that make him? A Never was, never will be act. Fact is Pitman was the most pointless and useless member in the history of Guns N Roses. Tracy and Roberta contributed more than this jackass. There should have been Tracy and Roberta statues in the pop-up GN'R museum at the Troubadour. Legendary status for sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patience 4 Axl Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Awww, where's the love Pitman used to get on here for all those super funky techno beats people used to gush about? Have they all suddenly become AC/ DC fans? Well, at least we'll always have Silkworms. Thanks Pitman. Thanks a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalGunner Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Pitman seemed excited about these shows when they were announced.. something happened. Might have been a money thing. He knew a much larger amount of $$$ was to be made here and thought he was entitled to a pay raise.. got pissed off when that was denied and was subsequently replaced by a younger (cheaper) Melissa. Maybe his dismissal was a compromise with Slash.. I highly doubt he just walked away from the best gig he's ever had. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish Pitman all the best. I really enjoyed Lusk and to a lesser extent Sextapes. Are there any statements from those guys stating that is why they left? It could very well have been a factor. I think Robin left because he got his job back in NIN while GNR was on a break.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittiara Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 (edited) I can't really see it being the case for Pitman, though. I mean, he was apparently happy enough to do the regrouping promo video. He promoted Coachella on his social media profile. I presume he knew what the regrouping would be about at that stage. What happened afterwards, who knows? The odd statements, which looked as though he'd been told off. His removing his ties to the band on social media. I don't know. It seems to me, as an outsider, that there was a fall-out of some kind. But as said, I doubt it was over a lack of new music, considering the above. Edited April 19, 2016 by Kittiara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i recall correctly, he had a good amount of contribution to Silkworms, played the beginning of If the World, and flicked through a couple of sounds until Axl chose the horns for Madagascar. So... not a whole lot really. Edited April 19, 2016 by Live Like a Suicide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnfnrs1972 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Met him and Frank at Hard Rock Cafe before a show in 2011. Frank was nice and gracious and talkative. Chris just sat there like the ass he seems to be. It's bad to judge someone based on a couple of minutes but that's how he came across to me.

uncivil war Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 So let me get this straight, Mr Pitman. You have too much artistic integrity to continue playing "30 year old hits", (a job that you until quite recently seemed to enjoy) in a band with 3 of rocks biggest names in a much anticipated and arguably historic tour, and your walking away to play with a tool and a puppy in a band no one will ever hear from again. Hmmm... sounds legit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlashisGOD Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Good riddance. This guy is a fucking leeching scum bag. Teddy Zig Zag is more worthwhile in the band than this nobody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
