GN'R Member Chris Pitman Blasts Reunion Tour: 'A Money Grab, Fuck You!'
Guns N' Roses multi-instrumentalist Chris Pitman blasted the band's latest classic-lineup "semi-reunion," calling it "a money grab."
In a subsequently-deleted post, Chris said: "This is a nostalgia tour. Please don't mention those who are there the last 20 fucking years ... oh god no!! ... (a money grab) FU."
Pitman already took a jab at the band's management last month for forcing him to deny that the reunion is happening.
Although Chris is not associated with the band's strongest, classic years, he did spend 20 years in GN'R, which is longer than Slash or Duff ever did.
Whether or not this outburst means that Pitman is no longer in the band yet remains to be seen.

Guns N’ Roses member Chris Pitman blasts “money grab” reunion tour
"Please don't mention those who are there the last 20 fucking years ... oh god no!!"
In a little over a month, Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagan will reform Guns N’ Roses’ classic lineup for a long sought-after reunion tour. While the rest of the touring lineup remains unconfirmed, don’t expect multi-instrumentalist Chris Pitman to be part of it.
Though Pitman was not involved in Guns N’ Roses’ golden years, he has been a member of the band / put up with Axl Rose’s bullshit for nearly 20 years, far longer than Slash or McKagan ever did. So you can somewhat understand his frustration when recently asked about his status in GNR.
In a since deleted post on social media (via Reddit), Pitman referred to GNR’s reunion as a “nostalgia tour,” adding, “please don’t mention those who are there the last 20 fucking years … oh god no!! … (a money grab) FU.”

In hindsight, it seems Chris was right.
