Leave Ron alone, everybody! He's a hell of a musician and somebody who really marched to the beat of his own drum most of his life. He's just making some real money for the first time in his career, playing stuff he could do with his toes instead of his fingers if he needed to. Bumblefoot's gotta eat, too... I decided a long time ago to filter / change the name "Guns N' Roses" to "The Axl Rose Orchestra" in my mind whenever I hear it. Works for me...

I thought GnR were a joke 30 seconds into Sweet Child of Mine when it goes from the intro to the heavier (read cliched) part. Up until that point they had potential. This was a one off playing of that single on a late night music show at about 2am. Nobody had heard of them in Australia. I said to a friend of mine the next day I saw this new band on Rage last night. They were crap. 2 Months later people started wearing t-shirts and stuff. When I say people I mean 13-14 year old kids, because that's the only appeal that crap had. We grew up with real metal and real playing. GnR were a joke.

He talks like he's doing a parody of himself playing the part of a Spinal Tap character.

I'm so glad Buckethead got out of this joke of a band... Think about it... a man who has a bucket on his head and a mask on his face seems more 'real' than these guys. This isn't rock and roll anymore, It's now 'I'm a 45 year old guy that wears make up and dresses like a high school drop out and doesn't even know my own gear but I like horror movies and trashing guitars'.

to cody: that surprises you why?
if you couldput atenth of an ounce of talent that came from slash and izzy in a bottle it'd sell for $10,000 a pop!!! (lol)- You can't buy that. Of course it takes that to replicate the talent that comes from the human soul. not to mention an intricate working human brain!
duh! (no offense intended to anyone really just putting the obvious out there)
