And he's been with GnR since, what, the UYI albums?


I think he first worked with the band on 'Lies'. I think there's a keyboard on the last bit of One in a Million.

Got all these questions.
Don't know who I could even ask.
So I'll just lie alone and wait for the dream.

All those years & he's still just the keyboardist for GNR. Most people don't even know his name  :disgust:

No, that piano was Axl
He joined the band in 1990, just before Steven was sacked

It also means that Axl is not the only remaining long-time member. I know many consider the AFD line-up the only line-up and I can't help that. But Dizzy's been there long enough that he is just as much Guns and Roses as Axl Rose is.

Yes, but a lot of people don't know who the hell he is or how long he has been in the band. Dizzy's been there long enough cause he's loyal & seems to get a long with Axl.

Exactly. His first work with GNR was "Civil War".

Gotta love Dizzy.

For me the unsung hero on this song is Tommy.  His bas on the Rio version is what made me love this song.  If i could take that and add it to the 02 Osaka version and add the outro solo from the studio version it would be a perfect song for me

I Fuckin love this song. straight 10/10.
the demo version isnt all that good though. Axl had some good ideas, but his voice cant fully follow through his masterplan. it seems as if he is losing it in a way. ....

the studio version totally blew me away, juss like the first time i ever heard patience. FUCKN EPIC!
