Towelie Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Assuming that the current band isn't completely dead in the water and Axl intends to regroup at some stage without Ron Thal, do you think he still thinks it's a necessity to have a virtuosic shredder in the band? If Axl had any sense, he would realise that there's really very little Richard Fortus can't do and there'd be far more value in bringing Robin Finck back than just hiring another shredder who won't contribute anything creative or original with the band.Hopefully Axl realises this and gives Finck a call. I think what he needs to remember about these guitar nerd virtuosos is that they didn't spend 12 hours a day playing with a metronome only to spend their days playing the half of the SCOM solo that DJ can't handle.

It's not as though they refused to lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dando Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 You need one yeah if you're going to play 'newer stuff' (shacklers for example)Could DJ and Fortus do there was a time and estranged ? Sensible thing is robin finck but he's a bit hit n miss live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Richard could play the lead parts on all the Chinese tracks except for maybe Shacklers. He could do TWAT, that one really isn't all that complicated. Edited May 25, 2015 by Towelie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maynard Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) If Axl tours again one day, which I really doubt, he'll probably drop more CD tracks. He's been doing this since its release. This tour would not include new songs because Axl will not release new music again so the setlist probably wouldn't include any BH material. Ron Thal never recorded anything with Axl (except for his pointless CD crap) so, no problem there.GNR doesn't need a virtuoso but this is not GNR, it's Axl's band. So he can do whatever he wants (even calling it GNR lol). The old songs created by real GNR surely don't need any shredding, although BH did a good job covering them.Oh, I doubt Robin would ever comeback to Axl's band. He did a great job, he is an awesome musician but I don't believe GNR was ever his cup of tea. Edited May 25, 2015 by maynard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I don't know, how many people would stop attending cash-grabbing gigs featuring Axl Rose and his band if they completely drop CD songs? Let's see... around 4 or 5. No, I don't think Axl would care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silent Jay Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Could the band only do This I Love, Madagascar and Street Of Dreams live? If the next step is to be a "down to earth", two raw guitars band.But I guess Axl still want sto perform Better or Chinese, and they might be a shit load of BH/BBF with the new songs.

maynard Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Finck is supposed to be recording his solo album but he is as unpredictable as Axl, and a lot more mysterious too. Hopefully he will release it some day. Screw Axl's band, Finck deserves better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
