I thought it would be fun to count how many members have been in the band

* are still in the current lin-up

vocals

W. Axl Rose*

Lead guitar

Slash

Finck*

Buckethead

Ron BBF Thal*

Zakk Wild? or whatever his name is?

Rythm guitar

Izzy

Guilby Clarke

Paul Huge

Richard Fortus*

Bass

Duff

Tommy Stinson*

Drums

Steven Adler

Matt sorum

Josh Freish

Brain*

Frank*

Keyboards

Dizzy*

Pittman*

For a total of 20 members.

I might be wrong about that Zakk dude, i'm not sure about him, so feel free to correct me if i'm wrong. And I didn't count the pre "live like a suicide" era, before they actually had any kind of an album.

I honestly don't think people will ever take GNR seriously anymore. (of course except for the hardcore fans like most of us) and the reason is listed above.

At least they still rock like hell on stage and hopefully put together a new album that rocks as well. But the new album is going to be another confusing thing. Think of how many people are going to be playing on it. Counting the members that may have contributed waaaay back in 99 or even before. there might be some of the original GN'R on it for all we know. Fuck I think they are going to have to release this CD in a double CD case. One part for the CD itself and another part for the Credentials and shit.

And then theres Dave Navaro... wasn't he on the OMG song. There was Tracii Guns hence the names GUNS, Chris Weber was somewhere in the far past for a time. Then there was Teddy "ZigZag" on keyboards and the 976 Horns.

Zakk was brought in to push Slash along during the recording sessions following the UYI tour. Did'nt really work out.

I'd say more like 25 or 26 people.

I think you guys missed the part where I said I didn't count the Pre-"Live like a suiced days".

you count Zakk Wylde but not Ole Beich? :huh:

Like i said, I wasn't sure about Zakk...I thought he was there about the time Finck came in, but I think that was incorrect.
