Mr. Oral Sex Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Everyone's praising Pittman like this is his deal. Like Axl's not even the focus anymore, or the rest of the band for that matter.Is this sarcasm, or are people really looking at this guy that way? He doesnt seem bad, and maybe he is amazing... time will tell. But so far it doesnt seem so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukinx Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Sarcasm. It all started with people wondering who the fuck (and why the fuck he was in the band) Pittman was and suddenly we had some wise asses name dropping him in every thread. A little more time passed and elsewhere appeared and I think they started as sarcasm and then went deaf and truly started loving the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnr-dave Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Like I have said in the past. Pittman is underrated in this band. He does A LOT on the new songs. Just listen to better, and maddy as two examples. he has a lot of things he does for those songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen8R Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) Like I have said in the past. Pittman is underrated in this band. He does A LOT on the new songs. Just listen to better, and maddy as two examples. he has a lot of things he does for those songs.But seriously, if Dizzy couldn;t handle all that, he is waaaaaaaaay over paid. I really don't think that the band needed a second keyboardist/effects man. Thats where the joke came from. Really he is just a soundguy when you think about it.A8R Edited November 12, 2006 by allen8r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackamo! Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) I'm not suppose to plug the site but go to http://www.piczo.com/elsewhereDownload some ZAUM or REPLICANTS from there and you will see why Pitman is a GOD.People assume it's a joke but it's not.He's alot more than a sound guy and Chinese Democracy is gonna prove it.

nugdafied Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Whatever, I'd like to see you noob's push a keyboard around like that!!! Pure rock n' roll that boy is!!! :xmassrudolph: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EccoTides Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 All the Pittman worship was funny last year... But the joke's gotten pretty lame, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackamo! Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) If you bash Pitman and call him untalented & useless- then you haven't heard "Merkaba"the poster above is the perfect example- he is not a joke and you haven't heard "Merkaba" before obviously.

bluesy Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 He's a band member for a reason. You're not entitled to judge his contributions to the band if you're not a part of the band. Honestly, all this "we don't need three guitarists or a keyboard player" bullshit is irritating. Like any of you idiots are more qualified than Axl to know what the band needs.

Jackamo! Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Axl hired Pitman for a very important reason. Axl wants a new direction, and Pitman is very experimental in the studio.My fear when the album comes out, is people giving Axl TOO MUCH credit for the super funky cool music.

Jackamo! Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Pitman doesn't contribute much LIVE, but he shines in the STUDIO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukinx Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) All the Pittman worship was funny last year... But the joke's gotten pretty lame, IMO.Agreed. It´s gone too far. I mean if someone (not saying someone should) should drop out of the band I´d prefer it to be Pittman.Pitman doesn't contribute much LIVE, but he shines in the STUDIOWe´ll just have to see about that when the CD drops. You could be in over your head here and I think you are. I mean how come he doesnt contribute so much live? If he´s just a studio musician he could´ve stayed in the studio.

bucketbot101 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Pittman will probably feel pretty damn shitty if he reads all of this crap people say about it lol i genuinely like what i can hear of his work on the new songs. and he must be worthy of a position in the band otherwise Axl wouldnt keep him. And i actually like Silkworms lol well, the lyrics anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, Jackamo, where's that Interview you told us you were having today that would confirm CD as the 21st, i could use a laughelsewhere's reviews are fucking hilarious.

But I will put something up soon. Nothing special though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnfnrhead Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 All the Pittman worship was funny last year... But the joke's gotten pretty lame, IMO.Agreed, it was fun but now its boring. Someone says he shines in the studio but not live, we havent heard enough from the gnr studio to judge if hes good enough for all the praise hes getting from some members on here.
