He's got astonishing feel and groove. 1.39 in that clip says it all better than i ever could. like bonham, he never got a lesson and he developed a style all by himself. it takes a hell of a musician to do that. Matt may be a technically better player. however i would argue that matt is the lesser drummer BECAUSE he is technically better. Rhythm is about feeling, groove, NOT about mimicking a metronome. You have it in you or not, you can't "learn" it. many people forget that. Edited April 28, 2016 by action 3
Havoc907 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 I was in LA earlier this month and ran into someone who I know is very close to Steven. I doubt they want me saying their name, so I'm gonna keep that to myself. I've seen a lot of the rumors and all the "insiders" that claim Steven had back problems and that's why he isn't a part of the reunion. This person told me that wasn't the case (the back problems part might be true for all I know). They claim "GnR did him dirty" and Steven was never asked to be a part of the reunion. I asked about Steven's recent silence and they claim Steven is embarrassed about not being asked and that's why he was laying low. He didn't want to be bothered with all the questions... This person also told me, if I wanted to see an Adler show, they would be in Baltimore at the end of April (not sure if that was a secret or not, but it turned out to be true). This all took place at the very beginning of this month. I wasn't planning on saying anything, but I figured if I keep this person anonymous, then it's all good 1

I hope it NOT true and we all get Steven at some point. But come on, look at the signs, not what anyone is saying (even me). It's becoming obvious... 2
StrangerInThisTown Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) So now we have 3 stories 1) Steven rehearsed with them and threw his back 2) He was never asked 3) Duff is responsible for not letting him back in due to his druggy embarrassment opening for loaded Yeah I'm sticking with canter aswell Edited April 29, 2016 by StrangerInThisTown 1

Stress Fracture Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Steven has shows of his own to sell. If GNR 'did the dirty on him', he'd have the perfect ammunition to be all over the media and help draw attention to those shows. I believe that he is at least on good terms with the camp and will get to be onstage again with Axl, Slash and Duff at some point. Not sure the same can be said of Izzy anymore. 2

Nor did he confirm that Steven had surgery as was also claimed. Edited April 29, 2016 by stella

tsinindy Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 6 minutes ago, CheapJon said: Maybe, just maybe.. he's actually sober for real? He had a stroke, speech issues are quite common in that case. His speech is getting better over time bc it takes time not bc he is or is not sober.

My dad has an identical twin brother, they've both had several strokes but my alcoholic uncle is in way way way worse shape.
KURT19 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) I found the set times for this festival! 1:00 - 1:30 PM tomorrow! Less than 24 hours until all the Adler questions get answered... GO STEVEN, GO! Edited April 29, 2016 by KURT19 Assistance from Google/Facebook ;) 1
