This is really a sad news - if proven to be true - for me.

I enjoy Bumble being in the band, what he brings to the shows, the songs. I'd understand why he would leave though. He must have had high hopes when he joined, willing to help the band move forward and making new material. 8 years down the road it must be a bittersweet experience. Knowing all that could be and seeing nothing happening.

It will be a loss and if a new guy joins, it's gonna add more fuel to the endless revolving door perception - that for me was gone with this lineup being stable since 2009.

Sweet child heeeeeee

What the fuck was that?? Ashba God damn it, seriously what the fuck??

Any links to catch this now that it's over?

Good to read that Tommy is still in the band!

I thought it was an idiotic comment (if he ever said it that way in reality), especially the "fucking six-level palatial rock star estate with two elevators and my Porsche" part.

Anyway

It's cool that Duff's there, but all this stuff about replacing Tommy is silly. Not to mention horribly respectless to Tommy imo. "Thanks for the 16 years of loyal service but the old guy wants back in." On top of that I don't want Duff in an unproductive dictatorship.

This. The Replacements stint is over no? So why not have Tommy there? Or he'll be there and Duff will just be there as well for one song.

How come Tommy won't be at the show??

Don't get me wrong I'm happy Duff is playing with the band and all, but what's going on with Tommy?

Also it looks like - as always - some people want Axl to fail...

I hope they play at least one song off Democracy. A new one on top would be ace

Don't think he will, besides BJA didn't say mean things during his speech at HOF, he said Axl was a badass singer and fucking crazy. Which is true.

And then he deleted it?

Man, Ron does like to stir shit up

But do you know what the countdown thing is? I see no tweet from Ron speaking about 67 days.

Can someone explain the 67 days countdown thing?

I asked on HTGTH but my post was deleted.

1-Bumble, like you said he really brings great stuff live, and I like what he did so far in studio with the band.

2-Richard, because I think he rocks hard - it's time to let him shine a bit and I think he can pull it off.

3-DJ, some of his solos on Sixx: A.M. I like, and I think he can indeed do some good stuff with Axl but I don't like his persona too much.

Amazing version (Philly '12, UCAP tour).

What countdown tweet? I don't see it

I always love the moment when Ron throws his arms up at the start of the song. He knows it means so much for the fans.

And he indeed nails all his parts. He's just great.

Seeing it live in 2012 is a great memory.

It sounds great! Well done Evader, the band should hire you.

Slash played on a Dead Daisies song, I see no problem between Rich' and Axl.

That Nightrain @ Rock Am Ring '06. All the way.

Best Nightrain ever - I even couldn't listen to the studio version after that - still can't!

The Replacements are only playing Coachella right?

I hope he'll be back!

Have they ever opened with YCBM at all?

That rendition of Sorry was just great.

Bumble's amazing talent is so wasted in the band, it makes me sad to think about what they could accomplish.

Also now I don't want to hear Ashba playing it anymore.

Stupid hat, stupid tee with his name on it.

God why is he in this band...

Happy birthday Marc, thank you for everything!

Because he likes them?

He does have a beer gut though.

I could do without DJ.

Ron and Richard are amazing players, they should both be trading leads parts.

If Tommy left then Duff would be the logical choice - it's great to see and hear him on stage.
