You say that out of the fact that he left G&R's, or b/c of his get up? Or just maybe you can't handle the all around creativity of his talents? Well all I have to say to that is you don't know what your missing.

another Slash worshipper. I bet if Slash changed his name, shaved his head, changed his clothing style and stopped wearing the top hat and rejoined the band you people would still be saying "Guins N Roses isnt the same without Slash". Axl put on the best show I have ever seen when I went to to the conert, not to mention the new stuff was amazing.

There'll be plenty of guns, but theres only one Rose

Very old news Im aware, but I was just thinking and Im now convinced that Bumblefoot is Buckethead, just an alter ego, there playing styles are somewhat similar....
