Which former GN'R members are the most pissed off or annoyed about GN'R and for what reasons? eg. no longer being in it, maybe how they left or were fired or other specific events, maybe because they didn't get much financial or other reward out of their tenure, etc... Feel free to supply proof - quotes and so on.  I included Brain because he doesn't seem too keen on being in the band, and he has also made some smartarse comments.

Adler...every few months he mentions how a reunion should/will happen, as if it'd be that easy.

Slash, Adler & Tracii Gunns never do an interview without somehow mentioning GN'R, hence reminding everyone of their past association. They will forever milk the cow. But is Adler as calculating or adept as the other two when it comes to giving it some negative twist to crap on the band, intending to make themselves look good in the bargain? I doubt it. And since his recent therapy and book he loves everyone.

It's interesting that among the original alumni the coolest of them (Izzy & Duff) are at peace with GNR, while the others obviously exude bitterness.

Short-term replacements don't really have much to be pissed about - Sorum, Gilby, Tobias - they should be grateful to be counted among those who have once been in the mighty Guns N' Roses. Still, I'm interested to hear why they were pissed off if at all.

What bothered me the most however is how latter-day members just dropped out without any real explanation - Buckethead, Finck, and Brain it now appears. Maybe some reasons will yet surface about their leaving. Finck's leaving was the worst, the way he left everyone hanging to see what he would do. It pissed me off. It made me think there had to be something very fucked up about it.
