Guns N’ Roses are impressively free of bitch about guitarist Robin Finck’s return to his old band Nine Inch Nails. “Robin’s plans caught everyone in Guns, as well as our fans, a bit off-guard…. Neither we nor management, etc., know any more in this regard and we prefer not to speculate or offer opinions at this time. Robin’s Robin. We’re in negotiations for the release of Chinese Democracy and things are going well. When we begin to put tour plans together, we’ll see where things are. Until then, Robin’s touring with NIN and we’re working with management on our game plans.” I can’t imagine it’d be that hard to find a better Izzy, let alone a better Gilby. [gunsnroses.com]
