Uncle Bob Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 He almost always answer the Facebook comments/Private messages, I'm pretty sure he would be open to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbo Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 In all honesty, what's he gonna say that we haven't heard a hundred times already?Axls not worried about a new album being released, and I doubt he'll ever get the ball rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Bob Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 In all honesty, what's he gonna say that we haven't heard a hundred times already?Axls not worried about a new album being released, and I doubt he'll ever get the ball rolling.I can think in some interesting questions like:1-Ron, recently you mentioned a song that would had been on CD and that would be in "ChinDem2", do you know if ill ever been published the songs from the Chinese era? (He just have told us about NEW music, no old unknown music)2- Are you interested on GN'R music videos? There is any unreleased video from CD that is not a mix of concerts and documentary? Do you think we'll see someday any new music video from Gn'R?3-About the leftover songs from CD that we know, like "The General", or "Atlas Shrugged" Which do you think is better?, which do you like it most?

Estranged Reality Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 it would be cool to try to set something up. i'm not sure what his feelings towards the forum are though given what happened last time he showed up.i still think the fact that we nabbed a slash interview was awesome. i'd like to do it with more current members.

Uncle Bob Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 Well, my idea is just contact with him with facebook, and ask him if he would like to do an interview with some POLITE questions from the forum. Is not like "hey bumble come to the forum". Is just asking, he did an interview with a Brazillian fanclub, I'm pretty sure he would like to do something like that.The idea is something like the "5 questions for Axl", but the difference is that, this would be read by him, and there is not the same problems that we have to contact Axl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NGOG Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Bumblefoot is easily the stand out member of GNR as far as attitudes towards the fans. I have no doubt that if you formally approached him with such an offer he would oblige. What you have to respect however is that he cannot divulge any tentative plans. If you go into this process of interviewing without accepting that, you're going to be frustrated and have what you had here a year or so ago, bickering.

Uncle Bob Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 That's why if we do something, we should select some apropiated questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NGOG Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 What's the point though? Frankly (and with all due respect to Bumblefoot) GNR fans do not care about KISS tribute bands etc. They want one simple answer which pertains exclusively to new music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Bumblefoot does interviews all the time, I can't imagine there is much left to ask that he hasn't spoken about barring the things he cannot speak about. I think a Tommy interview at this point would be cool. Ask him some stuff about the upcoming Mats tour and gauge his opinion on Going Down. Getting him to do this might be trickier than BBF but he is on twitter so you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Bob Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) We can ask him about GN'R. He talked about CD leftovers before, he can do it again if we do a good question. We can ask how would he like to be the Gn'R's 2014. We can ask him about the leaks, when was the lattest time GN'R was in studio (If there's a DJ version of Better, maybe they made some nu songs in 2009). There's a lot of GN'R questions that can be answered without divulging any tentative plans.We can ask him why every single member of the band says something different like what Pitman said the other day.A Tommy interview would be cool, and I would support it, but the thing is, Bumble is the member who pays more attention to the fans, he even follows me on Twitter.

Guest NGOG Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I totally advocate the Tommy suggestion but alas I will not be leading any cutting-edge campaign to make it happen. Tommy's 'fuck it' attitude to what GNR management thinks is precisely what we need in terms of getting a good interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsh327 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 What kind of interview would you want? He was pissed off the last time he was on here and said he was done with mygnr. When GNR comes up he gets frustrated when people want to know more. He's happy to talk about what he's working on outside of GNR, he'll give all sorts of advice, but just don't nag him about unreleased stuff. He'd prob. talk about who snores and farts in their sleep, but Planet Axl's off limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedoGNR Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 If you have a question for Ron, just go on Twitter, or Facebook, or his forum. He will answer whatever questions he can. He is very accommodating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2112 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I'm not sure there's any point. If it's interviewing Ron about Bumblefoot music yeah that's worthwhile... if it's about new GnR music, we know where he stands we also know that he recently said that "the band seems to be on a break but that could all change with a moments notice" and they are not in the studio or even planning on going into the studio. Bumble will give straight honest answers but I think we're all going to be just as frustrated after it's over.Maybe we can petition for guns to get in the studio *joke* while we're at it, lets petition for Axl to get his vocal coach back and get him to sound at least as good as he did in 2006/07. I'm not sure I want a new Guns record with Axls current voice *not joking*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazey Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Somebody should PM Graeme if you're looking to do this. He's fairly friendly with BBF and he'd be sure to keep it respectful. Edited August 25, 2013 by Dazey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NGOG Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Bumblefoot has repeatedly made his position very clear to us. He isn't like Chris Pitman who is really indifferent to making new music and would rather exploit the old catalogue. Bumblefoot has explicitly said he wants to get in the studio and give the GNR fanbase what it wants. Why get him to reiterate that yet again?
