fabrph5 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Adler and Matt should be the only members associated with a re-union. They could easily learn the 2 or 3 songs they might play from Chinese. They both contributed to the greatness of the band. All the others after make no difference IMO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babooshka Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Well if we get new material with Frank, that could change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What UYI songs are linked with Steven in the band other than Civil War, Don't Cry and apparently Back Off Bitch?

DR DOOM Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I love (well, actually I fucking hate) it when people on GNR forums say that Adler isn't capable of playing the UYI material. Get a fucking clue, seriously...it's so dumb. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovim Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Every Appetite tune, Used To Love Her and Patience, Civil war with Adler. And of course he can play. He's still a great drummer. How many more youtube clips will it take? still got it. Edited March 29, 2016 by Rovim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven definitely deserves to be up there more than any other drummer Knockin On Heavens Door as well... I am sure he jammed on others as well at some point. He also played Down On The Farm live with the band and had never even heard it or practiced it before doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supercool Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) to those who never understood steven's relevance in the band, and why something essential was lost with his departure : Carducci relocates music's meaning in sound, specifically the real-time interaction between "the players of a guitar, a bass and a drum kit." For Carducci, rock's sparks fly only via the combustion engine that is a band. Temporary configurations (the singer/songwriter plus backing musicians, or the producer plus session hirelings or machines) are tainted because pop's producer-led esthetic can have no access to the rock epiphany: "multidimensional simultaneity," a.k.a. "the jam," that "superheated nexus in performance where each musician, while playing his part in the material, hears and feels and anticipates the greater whole as it is being reincarnated." In rock, there are so many mediocre drummers you might as well have a drum machine as some of these guys. But when you have a good drummer, it's a living system: he's playing with the wrist, responding to what he's hearing in a million different ways, and that's something that very hard for a computer to duplicate." http://reynoldsretro.blogspot.com.es/2007/08/joe-carducci-rock-and-pop-narcotic.html Edited March 29, 2016 by supercool 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Frank have that special something? I didn't see it with Ashba and the boys but am willing to give him a chance with Slash N' Duff. Was watching Rio '91 last night and was reminded what Matt brought to the band. Dude is an animal and Slash N' Duff were playing UP to his level.

And then when the curtain drops it's the 5 original guys up on the stage. Come on Izzy!! Make it happen That would be the absolute perfect way to open the show. Even if Adler and Izzy are only there for WTTJ it would be worth it! Of course I hope they will do the full show, but it's more likely they will just do AFD songs. Of course it remains to be seen if Izzy is on board. Crossing my fingers.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunners fan Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 It was not my point...I agree with you. The point is I want Frank and NOT Adler.....Adler cannot handle that job...Duff and Slash know it... Maybe for a few tunes...guest spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunners fan Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Ohhh please...either you are stupid or delusional ... a 12 song setlist at 1 am at the Mississippi Moon Bar doesn't make this "recovering" drummer hot shit ready for a world tour ...let alone stadiums. http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/adlers-appetite/2011/mississippi-moon-bar-at-diamond-jo-casino-dubuque-ia-43d0cf5f.html Slash, Duff, and Axl know they will be safe with Frank...than to risk embarrassment.

CardinalGunner Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Add me to the camp that prefers Frank be the full-time drummer. Much respect for Adler and Matt, but better to leave their time in the band to GnR history. Let Frank carry that torch now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
