Live chat with Bumblefoot - March 27, 2012

I attended a live chat with Bumblefoot yesterday. From the top of my head, here are some of the things he mentioned:

- Regarding the next record, he would like to get the remaining CD sessions songs out quickly and then write a new record with the current band.

- Frank is a surprisingly good bass player.

- When Izzy joined for a few shows (in 2006?), Bumblefoot had to turn the volume on his guitar down and show Izzy all the chords to Patience as the song was played. Bumbles was not sure if Izzy was just having fun with them or if he really had forgotten the chords.

- Bumblefoot is receiving therapy and there is some progress. Surgery is not an option. He is looking at a life with pain treatment.

- Bumblefoot has never seen Axl play guitar. But he is a good piano player. And a greater singer.

- Bumblefoot is open to changing his solo spot, but ideally he wouldn't play a solo at all and rather that they do another GN'R song.

- They have no unheard songs prepared, except for the new version of 'Oh My God'.

- "Going Down" is a song written by Axl which Bumblefoot described as "earthy", in the meaning of "organic" in contrast to "instrumental".

- Richard is the biggest guitar nerd in the band.

Bumblecool added this:

About Going Down
''Going Down is Chi Dem era, kinda earthy, but let Axwell talk about it when he's ready''

About OMG
"Will prob do OMG eventually, we all know it.... don't know when, will be spontaneous"

About Izzy
"Izzy, lol! I remember facing him each night during Patience, with my volume knob down........I'd be showing him each chord before he had to play them, lol! And he wrote the song! I'm still not sure if Izzy was doing that to fuck with us or not. He seems like the kinda dude that pretends and is laughing inside. "

"Outta nowhere Izzy emailed me a picture of a new truck he got and asked me to email it to Axl. But the pic was like 100x50, this tiny little pic, wtf?"

About Axl
"Never heard Axl play guitar. And hopefully never will, lol. He's a great piano player. Greater singer"

About Old GN'R Songs
"Fave unplayed GNR song? Hmmmm... a few... would like to do Perfect Crime, We had it down in 07 with Robin along with Riff Raff but never played em"

About Kat
"Katarina is the first photographer to have her work seen.... she's fantastic, she gets more good shots in one show than I've seen some get in a whole tour."

About HOF
"RNRHOF? Waiting for them to induct Kiss."

About Back Injury
"Ditched my doctors and started fresh in NYC, got immediate results."

About Brain and Robin
" saw Brain in January in LA, had a few drinks at NAMM, been years....... Robin too, not since NIN was in NYC.. We'd email from time to time "

About a 2006 show
"Sebastian tells me the next day, "Dude, I got a text from Axl that said.....Bumble just tried to kill half the band. I finally feel like I'm in a rock band again."

About his Solo Spot
"Here's my prob with solos - people are there to hear GNR. But if I play GNR for a solo, they'll want it with Axl (of course....!) "

"I'll think about it.... plus I don't wanna bug the guys to learn my wacky songs. And if they fuck up my song I'll stab them again, so it's best to just avoid the whole thing. lol"

[4:01 PM] axlmorris: Someone crashed into you right?

[4:02 PM] bumblefoot1: But at least they're more effective, and don't destroy my organs and brain the way the

[4:25 PM] ashbasab: nooo

[4:25 PM] soulmonster: you know us, we always want somethign new

[4:25 PM] bumblefoot1: If there wasn't fkn YouTube all this stuff would be exciting.

[4:25 PM] sixgnr: on tour

[4:25 PM] zqyx: I wait ages for this

[4:25 PM] axlmorris: I love panther, I loved don't cry.

[4:26 PM] soulmonster: bumbles: do a Stinson, play a Bumblefoot song as your solo spot

[4:26 PM] fabiognr: yeah Ron,plays some of your tune like solo!!

[4:26 PM] bumblefoot1: Not sure what's going on with Dizzy's stuff. Told him I'd help get it finished if needed

[4:26 PM] ashbasab:

[4:26 PM] estebanf: what about doing ''strawbery fields''? You did it amazingly good in your single version!

[4:26 PM] zqyx: maybe Perfect Crime on solo It's unexpected

[4:26 PM] soulmonster: estebanf: good idea!

[4:26 PM] soulmonster: or just an extended jam on the Locomotive riff

[4:27 PM] bumblefoot1: Here's my prob with solos - people are there to hear GNR. But if I play GNR for a solo,

[4:27 PM] voodoochild: hey esteban, don't steal my idea!

[4:27 PM] bumblefoot1: they'll want it with Axl (of course....!)

[4:27 PM] zqyx:

[4:27 PM] fabiognr: No!it's better some Ron tune like solo!don't u think guys?

[4:27 PM] soulmonster: bumbles: yes, and??? It worked for Don't Cry

[4:27 PM] axlmorris: Are you a leslie west fan, ron? do some mississipi queen.... Random I know, just listen it

[4:27 PM] ashbasab: like D.J. solo

[4:27 PM] estebanf: hey! but Tommy plays ''Motivation'' and everythings fine with that!

[4:27 PM] bumblefoot1: And if I play a *song* that isn't GNR, it'd be like 'why not play a GNR song'?

[4:27 PM] zqyx: and it worked for Estranged

[4:27 PM] sixgnr: yes... but you did with Don't Cry and Estranged and it works ... Axl sang

[4:28 PM] soulmonster: damned if you do, damned if you don't

[4:28 PM] fabiognr: yeah right Soul!

[4:28 PM] guest-448863 entered the room.

[4:28 PM] guest-448863 changed nickname to jrzygrl33

[4:28 PM] bumblefoot1: So what I'd really like to do is NOT have a solo and play another GNR song instead, lol.

[4:28 PM] soulmonster: bumble: then play a mash-up of GNRxBumblefoot

[4:28 PM] fabiognr: Ron play what U wanna!!

[4:28 PM] bumblefoot1: But that won't happen.

[4:28 PM] zqyx: You can play Your own song as solo because they're great

[4:28 PM] zqyx: You don't need another reason

[4:28 PM] fabiognr: i agree zqyx

[4:28 PM] bumblefoot1: I'll think about it.... plus I don't wanna bug the guys to learn my wacky songs.

[4:29 PM] estebanf: if Bucket played the fucking star wars theme, you can play whatever u want!

[4:29 PM] voodoochild: lol

[4:29 PM] bumblefoot1: And if they fuck up my song I'll stab them again, so it's best to just avoid the whole

[4:29 PM] bumblefoot1: thing.

[4:29 PM] bumblefoot1: lol

[4:29 PM] zqyx: and anyone who doesn't agree can leave and listen Justin Bieber

[4:29 PM] sixgnr: lol

[4:29 PM] soulmonster: bumbles: you're a great singer, pick a GN'R song that had Izzy on vocals, like...

[4:29 PM] soulmonster: ...Double Talkin' Jive, and sing yourself...there's nothign Axl can do about it

[4:30 PM] bumblefoot1: I'll do a Justin Beiber song. That's all. lol.

[4:30 PM] sixgnr: Ron don't take the chainsaw... again...

[4:30 PM] soulmonster: haha

[4:30 PM] zqyx:

[4:30 PM] sixgnr: wtf!!!
