Montrealer Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 or maybe hes not on there because he took some time off from the band to be with his family. OMFG!What a non professional person!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Lahey Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 If Brains really gone Axl needs to find a better replacement than Frank. Knowing Axl, he's probably downgrading the quality of the album even more by having Frank and Ron rerecording all Brain and Buckets work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Brain and then Frank live.. I tought that frank had a lot more energy and was having a lot more of fun to play than brain.. at least live.

Sames goes for Bucket vs Ron. Axl and Robin are better now than they were in 2002, but Ron and Frank have been a noticeable downgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Lahey Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 So you guys who prefer Ron and Frank to Brain and Bucket, prefer style over substance, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bin laden killed gnr Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 He's gone with the wind. I smell Buckethead all over his absence and delay....He stuck around long enough to get his writer's credit on the album and split. I don't blame him.

life_247 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 (edited) fuck brain and frank.axl should just bring in a drumming machine, itd be much cheaper and a WAY better experience for fans at his concerts.or just get pitman do use his magic wiggly keyboard and make a drumming sound.Dizzy plays bongos. He rocks them hard in Welcome to the Jungle. Too bad nobody can hear them. They should release a collection of GnR greatest hits with JUST Axl, Dizzy and Pitman. That would be the best album ever.Axl has a lot of trouble hanging onto guitar players. Maybe an all synth band is just the thing he needs.It's called Rock in Rio IVAnyhoo, i felt Brain sounds like a drum machine too much whereas Frank is more like a real life drummer. It will also take frank a little time to fit in with the guys whereas Brain has been about for many a year.

Spuffy78 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Maybe he's with his family at Buckethead land? Until it's offical that he's gone he's still in the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangelus Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Maybe he's "in Axl's ass"? That tends to be the hot vacation spot for most ex-GNR members So thats how Axl got his voice back in '06, must be easier to hit the high notes with a couple'a ex bandmates in your ass!

Outtagetme Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I met Frank in San Juan. Nice guy. Anyway, I said to him "so your the drummer for good now?" He said to me, "I don't know really what's up with Brian. I know that touring can be difficult and when I had my first kid, I took time off to stay at home with her. I think that may be what he is doing". Of course, to be in this band, you probably have to go to some kind of PR class and sign a bunch of documents saying that they can cut your balls off if you mention anything that is going on in the band. I didn't expect to get any real answer from him. Frank was cool nonetheless and I enjoyed talking to him. When I really think about it though, I'm in this for Axl and the other guys are still kind of background noise to me. I'm becoming a fan of all of them and think this is probably the most talented group of musicians I've seen play live, but I will not begin to really think of them as a "band" until I have the new album in my hands. I imagine that if I cared who the drummer was, I would still be pissed that the band doesn't include Slash, Duff, Izzy, or Sorum. Happy MLK Day. I have a dream today.
