Lose Your Illusions Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Kurt Loder called Paul the "normal guy" between a baldish headed Finck and Buckethead. Axl called Paul instrumental in keeping GNR alive in the "dark days" of the band. He played several live shows but did not want to tour. His band "Mank Rage" (the only non-GNR band I am aware he was in) put demos on their Myspace page in 2006, but nothing else. On his Wikipedia page it states " It has since been stated that he will continue to work in the studio with the band as a member even though he will not feature as an official member on the band's touring schedule." Does anyone know what truth their is to this? Also, I am wondering does anyone know if there is any other bands he worked with or are in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 (edited) I hope he's still involved in some of the writing process. Back Off Bitch, TWAT, Catcher, IRS and Prostitute? Great songs. Edited June 11, 2010 by Conor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lose Your Illusions Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 I hope he's still involved in some of the writing process. Back Off Bitch, TWAT, Catcher, IRS and Prostitute? Great songs.I totally agree. I found this 2004 Dizzy interview talks about Paul.Dan: During that time in the mid and late 90's, when there wasn't much talk of anything going on, was there a lot of down time?Dizzy: I was down in a rehearsal studio recording ideas with a couple other guys, a guy named Paul Huge who was in the band for a little while, and basically that's what I did five days a week. Five or six days a week, I was just down there recording ideas. A lot of great songs came out of that. Its all still there. Something will happen with that stuff eventually. That was a very cool creative period and it was great working with Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graveyard Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 he was so important to the band during the silent era of the late 90s early 2000s. and he made so many great contributions to the album. I hope there is more to come from paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seely Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Paul may not have been much live (and he really wasn't..), but his importance to keeping GN'R going and his contributions to CD should neve be understated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOOSIER GUNZ Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 He is another Indiana boy like Axl, Izzy and DJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sweet Tooth Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Love all of Paul's input in every song that he's credited to, they're all so good! Hope he sticks around, maybe get izzy also? Getting a whole indiana band might have a cool vibe to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plonker88 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Axl said he still helped out around the studio. Considering the writing credits on the album that ain't no bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
