Popular Post ZoSoRose Posted September 14 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 14 Show was great! I was right up front and it was a good turnout- about 120 people. He was very friendly and sounded great. Got to meet him after, got a pic, and got a copy of Let it Be by The Replacements signed. Told him Chinese was one of my favorite records. That was my first time meeting him and seeing him outside of Guns N Roses What a crazy thing to stumble upon for me! I live 4 hours away in a different state and happened to be in town. Then I had no reason to go into that store (decided to kill times after passing it in my car) and had no idea he was playing there. Sometimes fun coincidences just happen! 24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitarpatch Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Love Tommy’s solo work. The two Bash and Pop records are great listens. His last one under the cowboys in the campfire name is good too. I also played Village Gorilla Head to death when it came out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was like 2 feet away so he probably heard it and ignored it lol 2 hours ago, JimiRose said: I'd take a NUGnR reunion show and setlist over the threeunion. seen it now, it's done. bring back stinson, bucket and finck. It’s clear to me all these guys are just so far removed from that period of their lives. Tommy’s current path couldn’t be further from his GNR days. Same with Ron, Bucket, Robin, Paul (probably), etc Id bet Tommy is probably happier doing this. Everyone there was there because they liked Tommy and The Replacements. I was probably the only one that cared about his time in Guns N’ Roses Edited September 14 by ZoSoRose 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ericstacey Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 His solo stuff is great-I've seen him live 3 or 4 times-I paid to attend one of the meet and greet things before a show and asked him about Roy Thomas Baker (he hated him). He mentioned a song he wished he could get back from GNR-I'm assuming Going Down? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy seems like a guy who likes who he likes and doesn't always minces words. I actually like that about him, less the bullying though, especially of Bumble. it wasn't cool imo but I admire the guy. Bumble is more of a class act. Tommy is honest as hell it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we know Bumble was bullied, and by Tommy, though? We know Bumble's side to the story (and he seems to have indicated Robin and not Tommy), but I am reluctant to just accept someone's story without having heard form the outer part. Bumble was always a bit whiny. But yeah, Tommy is direct and don't mince his words much. Maybe he was a bit too rough for Bumble. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an afterparty video yeeeeeeeears ago where Tommy is sat a table with some drinks and some of the other guys and asks "Where's Bumble?" with what seems like genuine concern? If anyone has a link to this video it'd be much appreciated, I have no idea where it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Bumble especially after what the rumor was about how he treated Bucket, but its still doesnt prove anything, just looks like it to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rumor about Tommy and Bucket is also interesting and something I would like to know more about. I know Tommy wasn't complimentary towards Bucket after Bucket had left, but is there more to the rumor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resent? Yeah, the disparaging comments about Bucket came closer to when he left the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
