Let's all just be thankful that we didn't get an Ashba/Bumble version
I'm still not convinced. But how can Robin and Bucket fans move on when there is nothing to move on to? Robin and Bucket won't be on the vinyl. What Chinese Democracy releases do Robin and Bucket fans have to look forward to? You have a vinyl in December. What do we have coming in December?
With the Village Discs we got to hear more from both of them than we realistically could expect after them leaving even before CD was released. Actually I'm more bummed out that Robin has abandoned his solo record. I would have loved to hear that..
hey man. I still think it's Robin on the demo. As I said in The General was played thread, I hear body and low rumble from Slash live and you don't hear any of that on the demo. Slash isn't on The General demo. And this to me puts Monsters in question too. I question the Slither and VR comparisons. Because I like the solos on Monsters and why would I like solos that are from Slash? Does that make sense? There's no way I would like solos from Slash whether I knew ahead of time or didn't know. I didn't like Slash solos on Perhaps, Hard Skool, and Absurd. Why all of a sudden would I start liking Slash now on Monsters?

Oh The General demo it is Super Strat on high. Big difference from the demo and live performance. This tells me it is Robin on The General demo. Do you guy based on my new audio evidence still say I'm nuts and ready for the looney bin?
Get to the punchl1ne
The punchline is Robin doesn't play live songs with body and low end rumble like Slash did last night on The General. Robin does Super Strat on high on the demo.

Okay guys. Listen to this. On the live performance from The General I hear body and low-end rumble from Slash on the live performance. That is a classic Slash signature Les Paul sound. Not a Robin Finck thing. On The General demo it is Super Strat on high. Big difference from the demo and live performance. This tells me it is Robin on The General demo. Do you guys based on my new audio evidence still say I'm nuts and ready for the looney bin?

That's cool for the Slash fans with the vinyl. But what cool stuff do the Robin and Bucket fans get? Do we get left out in the cold by Axl and Fernando? Do we get nothing but misery and pain?
#26 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns n roses played the general » 86 weeks ago
I can't hear the guitar over myself saying JESUS AXL WTF when I'm playing this.
Sigh.
I hear Slash fumbling, bumbling, and stumbling over the solo like he fumbles and stumbles over the Perhaps, Hard Skool, and Absurd solos from Robin and Bucket live.
#27 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General and Monsters » 86 weeks ago
I think people are hearing what they want to hear.
Well, I think I'm hearing Robin and others say they hear Slash. Since the debate isn't settled, we need official confirmation to settle the debate.

I put on my headphones like I did with the Monsters song to get the lyrics right and on the headphones I hear Slash playing it differently than Robin. Robin plays the solo on the high end. Not piercing and strident lol but still on the high end. If you know about the Super Strat guitar you'll know what I mean. Robin is famous for using the Super Strat guitar. Slash is famous for using the classic Les Paul. I hear this as another case and example of Slash trying to be Robin again live this time on the General. And Paul Huge? Where did Paul Huge come from? Paul's been out of the picture for years. I would assume Robin not only recorded the solo on The General but I would assume Robin wrote the guitar solo he recorded too. Why would Paul Huge write guitar solos for Robin to play in studio?
Dude, slash never plays a solo note for note live, an plus the earlier demos an the final products have all changed some how. The leak is too close to what they played live. An I have a super strat, an slash uses fenders in his recordings. Sucker train blues used a tele an strat, no Les Paul at all. An Paul comes in just simply cause we can all make absurd statements, isn’t that absurd?
It's not absurd. I'm listening to the demo and not previous songs. On the demo itself the solo is played with a Strat on HIGH. And that is a Robin Finck signature. And that's not absurd either.
#29 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns n roses played the general » 86 weeks ago
Your obsession with Robin Finck is out of hand. We get it, you don’t like Slash, and you love Finck. Still doesn’t mean he’s playing on any of these songs.
How is hearing Robin play a Super Strat guitar on the high end on The General an obsession?

I just forced myself to sit through my ULTIMATE NIGHTMARE of watching Slash live and after watching and most importantly LISTENING to it I can say that Slash played the solo DIFFERENTLY than Robin plays it on The General demo. It's still Robin Finck on the original 2006 demo of The General.
Finck? Are you mad? After watching slash play this live there is only one conclusion, Paul Huge actually wrote the whole song. Sorry bud, not finck
