Interesting. I read somewhere that Matt Sorum was the one to put Bucket on Axl's radar, after they worked together on the Power Rangers movie soundtrack which was recorded at Rumbo.

It was Robin who was on Matt's radar.

The timeline did seem off for that to me since the Power Rangers movie was 1995 and Bucket didn't join until 2000, but it is interesting they played together 

Haven't they played on two different songs, though?

They both played on the main Power Rangers theme, although Buckethead isn't/wasn't credited for years but was confirmed by multiple people to be the lead guitar player on the track.

I am right.

 

I'm over here less concerned with who's right in this debate and more concerned with whether or not the artist behind Chinese Democracy (2018, Completely New Original Piece of Art Version) is coming by to spin records tonight or not...

well they have a minion to do their job :) and since TB doesn't bother telling us and let someone else to get his hands dirty... we can easily assume that they are indeed behind it all.

We've reached a point where I think we will have to believe the looney :shrugs:

I just picture this clown every night sitting down at his desktop with Windows 95 still cranking away, cracking open a Henry’s Hard Soda and then watching all the forums like pedophile scoping out an elementary school.

In the old thread we had on this, from about 2013, that Uzi Suicidal LLC account was basically confirmed to be warchild.

dont take my word on this but i think Uzi Suicidal LLC is a joint venture that bagel boy, warchild and warchilds cross dressing brother all have involvement in. 

when things got hot and heavy a few months back when Gibbo had his YT strike overturned bagel resorted to using his own name on legal threats to get content removed.

I was super concerned about it. :P

Thank goodness you didn't infringe on my copyright! Phew. What a close one.

I'd love to spin records but I've been awake 30 hours now and am getting loopy.

I don't think I'd be good company in such a state / worried I can't top my cabaret act from last time.

You treat your fans like shit! You OWE us a visit!

So, if I understand this correctly, this kid:

1) Claims to work on behalf of Team Brazil, a professional management team responsible for Axl Rose and Guns N Roses.

2) Utilizes said power to pull videos from YouTube (and other sites) that Guns N' Roses record company, UMG, have previously flagged to ensure they (UMG) receive profits from running ads on these videos; thus costing UMG, and presumably GnR, actual $.

3) Does this because he is upset at other fans who actually want to watch & hear GnR performances and unreleased songs that he and a small few others have access to.

4) Directly threatens another man's children.

5) Publishes the address of the mother of said man.

6) Has previously impersonated Izzy Stradlin' (I remember this all too well...:lol:)

7) Created a fake Tommy Stinson Facebook page (yet claimed he wasn't impersonating Tommy:facepalm: after getting called out publicly)

 

And Team Brazil is not denying that this kid is working with their authorization a full week after receiving this information?

Yes. Probably shares the ability to yank videos down with Mofo

point 4 and 5 are not correct. the mans children and the address of mother are 2 different people/incidents.

both of course should never have happened.

Buckethead's introduction into the band actually is pretty baffling, in the sense that I wonder how Axl knew about him to begin with. Same with Bumblefoot. I'm inclined to believe that he knew of BH via his work with Viggo Mortensen for some reason

"According to Josh Freese, drummer of the band at the time, Axl made the invitation to Buckethead, which wasn't sure about joining the band. It was during a Christmas dinner that Axl, inviting the guitarist to his house, offered him a Leatherface doll - everything Buckethead wanted. The last myth began during the recordings of Chinese Democracy, when it was said badly that Buckethead had a giant chicken cage, where only he could enter. In this cage was a television, which passed hardcore porn 24/7. But the conspirators went further: one day, Axl's dog pooped inside the cage, Axl wanted to get it out and Buckethead insisted that the feces stayed there. One thing is certain: the fact that Buckethead never took off his mask, deeply irritated Axl Rose; and Buckethead was annoyed by Axl Rose's inability to finish a record or a tour."

Actually....Buckethead took off his mask one day. More on that later.
 

"Axl invited Buckethead on Christmas Day. The guitarist was upset because no one had gifted him with a rare doll of Leatherface(n. Of the movie "Massacre of the Saw") he had asked for as a gift. Buckethead himself tells the story: "I was invited to go to Axl's house on Christmas Eve, I had never met him before, I was sad that I had not won the doll, but it was still sad, I went to Axl's house , he presented me with a wrapped package.The Michael Myers version had already been released some time ago, I knew it was the same box. I figured it was Michael Myers and opened the package.There was Leatherface. "

To Buckethead, that was a sign that Axl understood him-he was inside. Another year had passed."

right. and the Christmas time could only have been 1999. remember Robin's 2-year contract ended Aug 1st 1999 and they were looking for other guys. 

including certain Richard Fortus, who was already on the way to show what he can do.

in the meantime, Axl met Buckethead and cancelled all other meetings, including Richard's.

Walker Alford lives a sad existence.

Keep him in your prayers.

hard to tell. there was the SCOM from Big Daddy, which was released in July, that definitely has Robin on it (altough I've never seen any proper credits).

then on Aug 1 Robin left, leaving the band only with Paul Huge as a full-time guitarist. Axl probably tried to play guitar a bit during that time.

then after Robin left, there was the "OMG era", which resulted in release of OMG, supposedly without Robin's previously recorded parts. they had Dave Navarro as a guest on lead guitars there, in addition to Paul Huge, Axl, Gary Sunshine.

then, around Christmas, Axl invited Buckethead, and for some months the guitars lineup was Paul and Buckethead.

only later in 2000 (Fragility Tour ended in July 2000, but probably it took some more time after that), Robin rejoined the band and the three-guitar thing was born.
