I don't care if it sounds sexist it's just strange to me to bring a woman into this band. I guess pitman really screwed up Yeah, that's a sexist statement... I'''m really surprised about this viewpoint because if you look back at their earliest club days, they were more feminine (glam) than your average 70-80's glam band, lol Not to mention the band's name (Roses) and Rocket Queen which is originally written by a girl's POV etc... and since this thing is all about the AFD nostalgia, then i really don't see why iT's bad Edited April 2, 2016 by Strange Broue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She doesn't fit. It's like one of Duff's daughters is up there playing with them. i just find it so discouraging because it bloats the band and disrupts their identity even further. frankly, i find it embarrassing because of what it symbolizes. since the conclusion of the AFD tour, Axl's vision of the future was for a huge ensemble band that he would have complete control over. he took the necessary steps at that time and bullied his way into making that happen. thus a move like this is just a microcosm of the never-ending dysfunction and the rudderless ship that is 'GNR'. this is nowhere close to being a real band, it's just a trademark. "Team Brazil" (laughable name) is a group of enablers who've always been deathly afraid of losing their meal ticket. they have zero clue as to how the music industry works. i mean, it's just embarrassing. their only goal is to sell one huge 'reunion' tour and then cash out with Axl. it was the last card they could play to keep the trademark alive. Slash and Duff knew it going in, so they made sure to secure contracts in their favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) Pitman must have offended the Axl in a big way (presumably he was already out when he made his cash grab comments on facebook)! He was one of the original 'nu' members along with Stinson, ''playing the fuck out of the old stuff''. I wonder what happened? Perhaps Slash and Duff saw him for what he was which is of course a complete arse but the decision to chop him is always going to rest with Axl. PS Although maybe it is a simple case of Pitman, a bit tipsy online, speaking his mind in calling the thing a cash grab on fb and being sacked as a consequence? If that is the situation I am crediting Pitman with far more independence and bollocks than I had previously credited him with (although he did offer an apology later, blaming the booze). Also, when you think about it, Stinson/Bumble/Ashba ditched: these people did tour together and no doubt forged friendships. There might be some loyalty there, and resentment of them being jettisoned like an used tampon? (I'm sure Graeme agrees with this).

I didn't necessarily want him replaced at all but nevertheless at least that towel waving prick is out of the band. Now, I wonder if she's a full member or a "touring" member.

Changes Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 1 hour ago, bigpoop said: I don't see her being young and female as a problem. The problem is there are more people on the stage that weren't in the real GNR than people that were. 4-3. I have also always felt that, but if they desperately crave a second keyboard player I think a young woman is a better way to go, she is just so obviously not intended to be an additional "real" band member. I'd rather a woman with a completely different style than a seventh or an eight male rocker in his 40s or 50s. That creates a bunch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 This one even got past CSI:GNR Never imagined there was a totally new (female) member! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we'll even be able to hear her anyways, and it's a nicer face to look at than that kiddy gobblin lookin mother fucker. that being said, good night gang. Tonight's been so freaky and awesome. Holy fuck Time to take Shitman off wiki They had two keyboard players during the worst pat of the Illusions tour.. aside from the last couple weeks in 1991 it was only in 1992.. In 1993 they stripped itall back down and it was ten times better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Drama Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 It's weird how people can say she's a "great addition" or can give any opinion really if they weren't there. We have no video footage to go off of. Whether or not someone is right for a band should ultimately depend on how good their playing is and if they have the ability to compliment the playing of their band mates. We really have no idea at this moment. Welcome, Melissa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's really no idea (yet) for any of us to know if either are true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
