best gnr drummer...

[CalumFarq]

freese was only ever going to be a session drummer for gnr,
But Brain nails every song live, Can't say the same for Frank or any other previous drummer.

+1 Agreed

Never had a chance to see if Freese could do better, sadly. I believe he could.

Steven. He might not be the most tech but when he played he played straight up, hard, fast and out of all of the above he seemed to be having the most fun.

Freese and Rob are irrelevant. Seriously.

Chinese Democracy's drums aren't mind blowing. In all honesty, I don't even notice them much. Nothing like what we heard Mr. Adler do to a song like Mr. Brownstone. Nothing like what Matt did for You Could Be Mine.

Rob was part of a band while the band was trying to create a solid lineup. He didn't make the cut for whatever reason. He didn't do the hard touring which put them on the map. He wouldn't even trek it to Seattle for their first "tour". Dude is just a dude who missed out on a big thing before it got big. Thats it.

not that i think the song itself is mind-blowing, i think the point was that josh wrote a bit part of the song itself not just the drums.

[alix-rose]

yeah that's what i meant.

So the dude worked on 1 mediocre Gn'R track and he gets nominated (and voted for!) for best all time drummer?
And the logic behind this is?

i dunno. i didnt vote for him. all i was saying is that in saying 'he helped write cd' doesnt mean just the drum parts.

[rds.06]

I vote Steve because I feel sorry for the guy.

Best drummer in gnr...I think he was the best drummer in GNR. The rest of the drummers did better work in GNR but he is the best one as a drummer and not part of the band.
