AxlRoseCDII Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Keep in mind whether you like Frank or not, he, as of 2006, is the current drummer of Guns N' Roses. Call him whatever you want, a hired hand or a "scab" that's not the argument. They weren't just going to kick him out, Axl is a loyal man and saw him as crucial to CD and the new music he one day will consider working on. Slash and Duff also decided to work with the current band instead of making it their way. It's not fair to anyone to kick Frank out when he's been there for 11 years and has credits on an album of the band. Like him or not, it's facts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea of two drummers is fucking silly. That would fuck with the chemistry of the band in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vloors Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Pretty cut Steve chose not to come to the Australian shows. They asked him Japan, Thailand or Australia and he said no because he didnt want to choose just one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerInThisTown Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 All I can say is I am glad Izzy decided against this aswell, the only thing worse than what we have now would be if Izzy was there win them and Adler was swept to the side like this. They are treating a guy with the biggest heart like this it's just unbelievable to me. Sure he had his problems but as Tomass said he wasn't asking for much..he just wanted to play his songs with these guys. And Frank would have been there as a backup anyway! They just basically told him no you can't. What reason is there to not have him play when Frank is there that is NOT bullshit? I am feeling Axl had a very strong hand in this and slash and duff just sided with it not to make the whole thing blow up again before it even started. I have lost a lot of respect for these 3 and they don't deserve Izzy on the stage either aslong as Adler is treated like this. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like he got a corticosteroid injection for the pinched nerve. It's not major and if it took he could've been back to playing in a few days. He said that in the second rehearsal in March he had the back pain. A week later he got an epidural. Then two weeks he had the surgery (meaning two weeks after the injury, I think). The L4 herniated disc surgery is relatively minor (if that is what he had). My step-sister had it and it barely took 45 minutes. They had her up and walking and sent home all in the same day. Of course healing from it takes a little longer. Even walking twice a day as recommended by her doctor to help the healing process she was still moving like a china doll two weeks later. Steven is Ironman if he was good to go in time for the Troubador show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangerInThisTown Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 If it was really Axls decision (and I believe it was after that story in Argentina) then nothing in the universe was more deserved than Axl breaking his foot at the first reunion show he decided to boot Steven out of because he injured himself..karma, motherfucker. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Cavalerra Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 This is a band not a sports team, putting some known dude as a reserve for entire tour is laughable concept, it's equal to slowly ditching him, the only backup that is acceptable is the unnamed drum tech replacing him when something goes awry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one here is a doctor, everyone is different and each body behaves differently when it heals, I see no reason to question it when he says he could play again after 2 weeks. There is no reason he would make it up and fuck his first reunion show in 26 years up. He could never live with that.

But those 2 drummer concept it's just stupid, not good if they wanna go record an album, even if they don't, it just still absurd as hell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever happened between that and the Troub that made those three change their minds? I doubt Steven was in it for the money so I don't think money was the issue there. Axl got involved. Before then it was just them and rehearsals. Who cares what Steven says here. The book was already closed on the original 5 with him and Izzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
