I think Slash is good at what he does but he has no range whatsoever. I saw him with Slash's Snake Pit long after the GnR days and he was still rehashing the same old thing.

I think the realty of GnR is that during a certain period they were more than the sum of their parts. I have no interest in solo output from any of them, but together during a particular period of their lives, it worked. I think there are quite a few bands out there like that. Jane's Addiction comes to mind.
