GNRfanMILO Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Do you guys think Axl will say something about it? I was not here the last time someone left the band publicly. In those cases did Axl say something, or he just kept hidden until the next tour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert G Durant Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Why the fuck is everyone in the band making music but Axl?! DJ wrote and recorded two albums this month alone. If Axl can't find a way to make music with him, he can't make music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gackt Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Is Bumble still undecided? If so, maybe this news will make him want to stick around and be a power guitar duo with Fortus (as it should be)Either way, it's party time 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AXL: Thanks Socky. *massages his bollocks with the sock on his hand* This band has been Axl and a bunch of sock puppets since Chinese Democracy failed to come out in 2002. And eventually Buckethead quit in 2004. Edited July 27, 2015 by username 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomfriend Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I also completely fail to believe that after the CD debacle the label are going to let Axl release a follow up with no tour or TV performances to promote it. Seems to me he'd need a band for that....So the only thing not pointing to 'no future' is a vague claim of Axl tinkering in the studio, much like he was for the latter half of the 90s and the early to mid 2000s. Hmm, not exactly reassuring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Why was Bumblefoot asked to 'respect an agreement' but Ashba was able to share that he no longer works in Axl's band?I assume different contracts, simple as that.That's really the first thing I thought about, but why would Bumblefoot be forced to respect that part of his contract when his bandmate is able to freely say he has quit? It's not "right" to put Bumblefoot in that position, tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magisme Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I don't buy the whole "Axl's priority is working on new material." Axl is focused on new material and wants to complete an album, right? But... he doesn't care if the musicians that work with him performing part of that material live come and go? He now needs 2 lead guitarists.I have a very hard time believing it too. We've just been through this so many times. And the one thing that continues to stick out like a sore thumb to me is that Axl said the fucking album was finished. It's like the one thing he's said in years. So which is it? Is the album done or is he working on it? Which one is the lie? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padme Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Some one should message Ron that Ashba came out and said he left, now you also be open about it.That´s what I was thinking. If DJ wrote a letter to make it official the why can´t Ron? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoSoRose Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) WOW#integrity #friends4lyf #takeabulletOn a serious note, I'll give DJ some thanks. He contributed in some capacity to my best years of following the band and all three GNR gigs I've seen were with him. Honestly, with him and Ron gone, Tommy not giving a fuck, Richard having other projects, etc then what is the point?Unfortunatly, I don't see anything else from the Chinese Democracy sessions ever seeing the light of day. It seems that a reunion is the only place to go. Edited July 27, 2015 by ZoSoRose 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
