Top-Hatted One Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 20 hours ago, soon said: Brain talked about Axl inviting him back and declining out of respect for his understudy, Frank. Frank must know about this. So Frank would need to step down. Hopefully Brain is the only of the two to be on any recordings Axl has. Or even, wishful thinking, that the 3 are making new tracks with Brain ghosting for Frank on the sessions. Its not all that rare in rock in general. Adler, Matt and Brain are all incredible in my books. For what GNR is today, Brian has a lot to offer in studio. It's a good thing Slash do what Brain did. Turn down a reunion with Axl in honor of DJ Ashba! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gackt Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I'd welcome Brain back into the band anytime, very underrated professional drummer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guitto Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I like him, more than Frank 10000x. Even with the assassination of "You could be mine" intro at RIR 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rendestroi95 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 (edited) Freese* Combine Adler + Brain and you'll have Freese's right arm... even tho Adler is the best drummer for GNR, Freese is, technically, miles away from everybody who drummed under the GNR name Edited November 11, 2017 by rendestroi95 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F*ck Fear Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 (edited) I never cared for his 'You Could Be Mine' intro. That is all. Edited November 11, 2017 by F*ck Fear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F*ck Fear Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 During the 2002 tour it sounded flat, totally missing the vicious punch that intro needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASLayerAODsk Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I think the real question would be, would he WANT to come back? ..and in history, how many former members, other than the originals, have been invited back to the fold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we do I remember reading that interview. It had something to do with Josh Freese originally playing all these tracks, but Axl liked the way Brian sounded, so Axl hired someone to write out the entire drum track portions of every song on sheet music so Brian could learn to play them exactly like Josh did note-by-note Brian is cool, but I would love to hear more of Freese's work with GN'R Edited November 19, 2017 by RJ88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I know he technically is but I never really considered Freeze a proper member of GN'R. He never played on any live shows, had no playing parts on Chinese, and was only featured on one album-less solo (being Oh My God). Don't get me wrong, he's an amazing drummer with great talent but I always considered Brain the Chinese Democracy drummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means some guy from Sony has cd2 sitting on his shelf somewhere. If only we knew who he was... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL He has proven that he's still the best for Guns and to be fair... Steven could be in delirium, having a stroke and a heart attack at the same time and he would still be better on drums than Frank Edited November 19, 2017 by Free Bird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like his groove on the AfD songs and the way he played the CD material. He is basically the perfect drummer for GN'R And people actually complain about Matt Sorum's solos ?? What a disgrace this was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
