Powerage5 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Is anybody else reminded of all the actors who've played James Bond when they think of GNR lead guitarists? SlashThe original classic lead guitarist of GNR. He's definitely the Sean Connery of the lot. Played on their biggest albums and will always be the definitive GNR guitarist. Like Connery in Highlander, The Untouchables or Indiana Jones: Slash has found success outside GNR in his work with Velvet Revolver, Michael Jackson and Lenny Kravitz. No matter what he does though, the public will always see him as the lead guitarist of GNR; just like how Connery will always be seen as being James Bond. You forgot one thing; technically inferior to the new guy.not relevantI forgot to add the "/trying to stir shit" at the end of my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brosnan tried to be in essence a modern version of Connery in style and attitude...DJ acts and dresses (top hat and cigarette) like he's Slash, Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Tommy Stinson is Daniel Craig.I think Clive Owen will be next Bond so the next GNR guitarist could be Mick Mars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
