They should seriously get rid of Melissa and her effects and Dizzy unless needed on a piano song. All of that crap adds nothing to the songs, which is why they always sound better without it. In my opinion that's not the problem with how Guns sound. Melissa is just fine, as is Dizzy. It all depends on Axl. If he sounds like shit, it's hard to listen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BorderlineCrazy Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 So it turns out everyone who's saying this is the best version of the song in years are lying and don't really think so. Everyone claiming they loved the way Taylor played the song are saying it because they have an agenda against Frank Ferrer but they actually thought it sounded like shit. Makes a lot of sense... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitman, Buckethead, Ron, Brain, Fortus, etc can't play wild and dirty rock n' roll. e-fucking-xactly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've talked to so many people who went to the NITL gigs last year and they thought the drums were spot on. Someone pointed it out already, but there's no winning if you're Frank. I won't stand here saying I enjoy everything he does in GnR, but I will say the majority gets a thumbs up from me, AND besides being a guitar player I'm a drum fanatic, if it's not right I'm not able to enjoy it. End of the day if you don't enjoy his style that's fair enough! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he doesn't play certain fills and things exactly like Matt or whoever but he's very consistent each show with what he plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been I don't know how many years since replacement Frank Ferrer was hired to play other people's material for money, so it's pretty normal that when you hear someone other than him on drums you are surprised at how good Gn'R songs actually sound. I know I was surprised. At one point I stopped watching the video and just listening to it gave me the feel of "damn! that really sounds great! how is that possible? it's the same Axl, Slash and Duff of the last 5-6 years, oh wait... the drummer, now I know!" Drums are an essential part of the songs, specially AFD songs. After listening to these songs for the last 20 years of my life again and again, your ear notices the changes. It's just normal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F*ck Fear Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Everyone has different tastes. While I have no problem with the way Frank plays, I hated how Matt Sorum made the AFD songs sound. Also, while so many praise Brain, he always ruined the You Could Be Mine intro. To each their own, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvH Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Matt's interpretation of the Mr Brownstone intro was as funny as his haircut. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying it for years and people always tell me I'm nuts. How can I be nuts about that, dude just plain plays it wrong every single time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wasted Posted June 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) They should take 4 drummers on the road, every guitarist, Tracey and Roberta to help us. Then re-create every song as it is on the record live. There’s a few CD songs that need Frank and Brain drumming at the same time. Bucket, Finck, Fortus, Ron, Huge. AFD has 3 guitar tracks on it so we need to clone Slash to re-create AFD perfectly. I never thought I’d say this but we need Gilby for the Spaghetti covers live. Bach needs to be there for Sorry.
