    Sorry, all of a sudden I´ve turned blue. Why I got magism´d? :question::blink::huh:

    In the Announcements Downzy posted the following:

    I have begun to transition certain members over to Club Member status. Those who purchased a MYGNRFORUM t-shirt previously or donated $25 or more between November 2014 and present are automatically awarded Club Member Status.

    Those moved from Silver to Club Member status will receive all the benefits formerly associated with the Silver status, plus a whole lot more!

    The Members Club section of the forum will be opening very soon!

    My guess, you've either bought a shirt, or donated more than $25

    Why all the Ashba hate?

    in CIVIL WAR

    Posted

    I don't hate him, but I really don't like his guitar playing. I don't like that he's in GnR. I think there's a thousand other more suitable and accomplished players that Axl could have hired instead of him.

    My reasoning:

    1. He's not a good guitar player, capable but not good. Band bends, bad timing and unimaginative melodic and rhythmic ideas.

    2. He's a yes / company man.

    3. The music he has written and released is generic radio rock.

    4. He's really embarrassing to watch on stage (that walking on the spot thing for one).

    I couldn't care less about his personal life, or his SWAG company, although the SWAG company is pretty embarrassing. I can get past almost anything but if the guy can't play then I see no reason why he as the gig, or why people shouldn't give him a hard time. Is DJ Ashba the worst musician in the world? no, but he isn't up to scratch to be a pro player.

    I accept your reasoning, but i feel compelled to comment on a few things

    1. While you say bad bends and timings. Keep in mind for alot of the UYI Tour Slash was wasted and could hardley keep time himself. A prime example is Tokyo 92, During Nightrain, in the first solo as it switches from Gilby's half of the solo to Slash's you can hear slash is behind.

    2. While he is a yes/company man, and the end of the day he needs a job and i am sure a few other people would admit to agreeing with the boss when he is completely wrong. (i have on many ocassions in my previous job)

    3. His solo music shouldn't be a problem with his Guns N' Roses career.

    4. Yes, his onstage antics can be embarasing. But it adds a bit of entertainment to the show.

    You look at his personal life and he's done quite well. It takes hard work which is clear he's not afraid of.

    Readin over the board as of late, why does everyone seem to hate on Ashba? As far as i can tell, he's putting on a show for the fans. There has been Technical difficulties for him sure, Such as Golden gods show. But technically i'd put him on a par with some of the others.
