Blame it on the Bucket

[Caligula13]

I understand that a lot of you want to forget that Buchethead has worked with Axl Rose but you don\'t really have to hate GNR to love BH. you can love them both, like I do.

in this interesting interview Dizzy Reed is asked if BH is officialy out. He answers: "For the time being, yeah."

call me Bush or Blair but this gives me hope.

Wow looks like he could break her over his knee they make a fine pychotic couple wander if she likes Taxidermy...

personally I\'m glad Buckethead is out of Gun\'s N Roses I herd Axl\'s realising his enablity to work with Guitar players so He\'s taking up the Insterment that should really be his downfall by bye Axl hello slobbys...just thought I\'d throw my two cents into this argument

some people, many of them artists of one level/type or another, just don\'t play well with others.  

many people who play well with others have no souls.

there are rare creatures who come along and can play well with others without losing their souls in the process.  they have to fight hard to hang on to themselves and sometimes they have to walk away from things/people/situations that seemed like a good idea at the time.

they\'ll both remain loved by those who truly loved them, and be reviled by those who either never did, or worse yet, loved only the idea of them.

Yes Travis, please keep us informed! Info like this,It\'s better to here the real word,instead of mere gossip.From what I\'v heard BH wouldn\'t do that.

Sorry for the belated post, but I really feel for fans of GnR, I mean these fans are some of the loyalist people around, and Axl keeps bastardizing their blind faith.  I was completely for Buckethead getting some notoriety from his stint with GnR, but Axl made it impossible.

I really think that Axl\'s demons are uncontrollable and they will eventually destroy someone who was(like him or not) great.  It\'s only time before Axl has an irreversable emotional episode, and I suspect him to suffer from manic depression.

Buckethead has how many releases, and how many cancelled shows?  Buckethead\'s lack of integrity has resulted in how many riots?  Buckethead has had to fire how many musicians he has worked with?  The obvious answer is(as far as I have heard) zero!  I don\'t find it a stretch to believe that he left due to lack of production.  Buckethead has put out more material since he joined Guns, than Guns have in their entirety.  I can\'t believe anyone needs to hear Bucket\'s side, considering Axl\'s track record!  

I really believe that Axl is Bi-polar(not to sound mean), and he has kept everyone waiting so long for this release that he realizes that it is impossible to live up to expectations.  In a way I feel sorry for him, but after all it was his own demons doing it to him!  I think Axl will subconciously find a way to get out of his obligation with the public, and It may mean his demise.  Just my thoughts....I do, however, feel so sorry for the die-hard Guns fans, and feel blessed to be a Buckethead fan!

just because they may be your own demons does not mean that you have any control over them.  the worst sabotage is that which we do to ourselves.

Axl being bi-polar is certainly a possibility - why would suggesting it be mean?  it\'s a medical reality that many of us are.  

[Morbidparable]

Actually when I said "not to be mean", I was referring to the fact that saying mental illness makes one less of a person is completely a fallacy, but as I am learning on these boards, everything needs to be spelled out nicely!

Also, I didn\'t want to sound like I was vilifying or denigrating Axl\'s work, due to my assumption....so relax, I meant no harm.  I had just gotten home from the taverns, and wasn\'t as contrived as I should have been!

Take Care,
You just received a MorbidParable!

I think we all have our demons. Some people show them,some don\'t. I think Axl might have some resentment here. I would think he could still get it together for that new release and get it done. I guess thats what I think anyway.

[Chris DiCicco]

  I got happy fun loven Demons yipey! doodlday! Grah GrahR!

I think Buckethead done good by getting out of GNR\'s and playing with CCBoBB\'s and Viggo for nice bright future.

were demons run an play all day. weeee.?!

it\'s GNR time again.

it\'s been posted on htgth.com (or whatever) that Brain will be touring with CCBBB till November, then with Tom Waits till January and then return to the GNR camp. so, BH is out of GNR and Brain not. crazy. they joined together. Axl accused BH of joining just for the money, trying to destroy his reputation and his good friend Brain returns to GNR?

[gkg]

can one ever know what actually goes on between individuals?  especially those who have paid hype machines?  i\'d say let it go.  BH & Brain probably have talked about the sitch, and if Brain\'s playing with GNR hurts Buckethead, that\'s between them...  i haven\'t heard of his saying anything against it.  he\'s letting quiet karma do it\'s thing and i\'m sure it\'s the wise move.  it usually is.
