Popular Post RussTCB Posted October 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 12, 2021 Bumblefoot was kind enough to give me a clip celebrating the 100th episode of my podcast. He gave a GREAT quote about hearing Van Halen for the first time and the loss of Edward Van Halen. Blabbermouth picked up the story and featured my show (again) along with a spotlight on Ron's quote. No, this isn't directly GN'R related but hey, at least it's not a 10th thread about HS https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/ron-bumblefoot-thal-hearing-eddie-van-halen-for-first-time-blew-my-mind/ 22 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted October 13, 2021 Author Share Posted October 13, 2021 Meant to mention this: if you check out the article and want to hear Bumbles actual clip, it's right around the 44 minute mark. If you happen to want to subscribe to the show, I won't be mad either lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a few people point out (rightfully so) that I was promoting it too much in the early days, so I pulled way back 😂 In any case, yeah, I've got a music podcast and a vinyl YouTube channel. Both of which seem to be doing well, so I'm happy. It was VERY nice of Bumble to lend a hand with our 100th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You actually recorded your podcast in 1999 and are only just releasing it now after splicing Bumblefoot's parts into it. 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never talk about GN'R with him. He's got so much else going on that we haven't talked about GN'R in a very long time. 29 minutes ago, James Bond said: Don't lie.

I've even been told the vocals on my vinyl YouTube channel have zero rasp. 2 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he'd be open to something like that but he's just so far past GN'R in his life that I bet he wouldn't have much to say that would be interesting to fans. Plus he was so open with the fans while he was in the band that I bet there's not much to ask him that he hasn't already answered. Outside of GN'R, I bet he'd have all sorts of cool shit to talk about that most people don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 'hot ones' style interview with his sauces (or maybe just some of his favorites) would be fun.

He was always classy and kept a dignified silence about a lot of shit, but it was an important part of his career and I'd love it if he opened up a bit more about his time in the band, especially now with the benefit of hindsight. I guess it's just not his style, airing dirty laundry etc. I can respect that. Doesn't mean I don't wanna hear all the gory details though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I firmly believe "dignified silence" is exactly the stance he intends to keep regarding GN'R. Again, I never want to come off as if I'm speaking FOR him or on his behalf. It's just the impression that I get. The dude has so much else he's always bust with outside of GN'R. And it's all so positive and constructive. I can't see him wanting to revisit anything to do with GN'R. If nothing else, anything he says would get immediately taken out of context anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, he could tell 10 great stories about his time and 1 negative and the negative will be picked up and circulated. It would be interesting to hear about his time recording etc. but I know he won't talk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the ultimate question…..does Zodiac 13 have vocals?!? A yes or no answer would do! 🤣 A general chat either with yourself or the AFD podcast would be cool - even just some cool stories. There must be a few! 12 minutes ago, Towelie said: He's never done a full elaborate interview about his GNR years though.

A buddy of mine had a wings party where people were encouraged to bring their own hot sauces, so I brought all 3 of Ron's. I tried what's supposed to be his "mild" sauce and was quickly made fun of because it set my mouth on fire lol. So I didn't try the other two but the people at the party said they were great.

ZoSoRose Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I have Ron’s hot sauces. 2 are very mild but the hottest is pretty rough. My gf got them mixed up once and had a spoonful of the hottest. Wasn’t a good time 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BumbleF**ED is a fucker, the other two are so mild Bumblefoot told me he didn't bother to measure their scoville rating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnfnrs1972 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I'd love to hear about the Art of Anarchy album with Scott Stapp. That album was the best I've heard from any artist in a long time. Wish Scott would have stayed on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to go back and listen to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird how both singers bailed on the group. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
