saber_ Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Why was he brought into the band? What did he contribute? Is he still on good terms with Axl? Is it possible he could join GnR on stage and we could have 3 keyboardists?Share what you know about the mysterious ex-GnR touring member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spunko12345 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I used to email back and forth with that dude a few years ago, his website used to have his email address so I just sent one off and we carried on for ages. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spunko12345 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 He was doing a tour or recording (I forget which)with Alice Cooper at the time so was on about that stuff quite a bit.. I remember asking him about the UYI tours and he said there was an insane amount of coke around that time. Nothing really that we don't already know but it was cool that he kept replying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRanOutOfIdeas Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Nah he was just a touring guy. Don't really know why he was needed other than the occasional harmonica part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moreblack Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 He helped recruit the backing singers and horn section as well, and he plays every kind of instrument, so kind of an all purpose extra player, did backing vocals too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshFromDetox Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I remember reading he was friends with Slash and he wanted him with the band. They went on to do a lot of stuff together since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DangerousCurves Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I thought Duff's brother was in charge of horns, since he played with them from time to time too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible he could join GnR on stage and we could have 3 keyboardists?Share what you know about the mysterious ex-GnR touring member.It would be best to read about things on Google and stop bringing up age old subjects that have talked about over and over.Actually to correct you- Teddy Zig Zag is not discussed that much here. I would go so far as to say he has the fewest threads made about him of any member, past or present. Secondly, "age old subjects" are brought up all the time on here. Maybe you didn't get the memo, but this section now covers all eras of GnR. So Teddy Zig Zag is fair game.Furthermore, if I just googled Teddy Zig Zag, I wouldn't have gotten the personalized fan accounts and opinions. I like reading what fellow fans have to say about Teddy Zig Zag. So if you could find it in your heart to forgive me for my redundant and age old thread about Teddy Zig Zag, I would appreciate it. I know you've had a link to the band in the past, maybe you can share a story about Teddy Zig Zag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Interesting that he said they don't use tapes in the interview. I think he's been pretty consistent in his own career as far as that goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
