Pregunta: Muchos estuvieron decepcionados de que no salieras de gira con GN'R esta ocasión, pero en general la gente está complacida con como lo está haciendo Frank. Es difícil que otra gente tome tu lugar o GN'R es un esfuerzo tan colectivo que no es un problema?

Brain: No, no es duro... es colectivo ahora!

Pregunta: Sabes si estarás presente en publicaciones futuras de GN'R?

Brain: Sé que estaré en algunas canciones!!

Pregunta: Puedes contarnos alguna anécdota divertida de tu estada en GN'R?

Brain: Una vez me comí un bol entero de spaghettis mientras tocaba November rain.

Pregunta: Cuál es tu canción favorita publicada y no publicada de GN'R?

Brain: TWAT y SEVEN

Pregunta: TWAT es mi canción favorita de GN'R sin duda - y he sido un gran fan desde 1988 - así que estoy muy emocionado por Seven. Nos puedes contar algo sobre esta canción? Es rockera?

Brain: Es una balada eterna con un coro asombroso y un puente [insertar aquí adjetivo positivo, "impresionante", "increible", etc, no sé traducir las expresiones de Brain ]

Pregunta: Cómo calificarías el material no publicado de GN'R? Se parece a Chinese democracy o es diferente de alguna manera?

Brain: [insertar aquí otro adjetivo positivo, "va a volaros los sesos". etc ]

Qué grande es Brain, si se entendiera lo que dice en las entrevistas ya sería épico

Buena onda Brain. Hay mucho material listo para salir, esperemos que lo escuchemos pronto.

Muy buena la entrevista de Brain, Mike te faltó por traducir la pregunta de cual es su estatus en Guns N' Roses.

Respecto a los adjetivos positivos, yo entiendo algo así como va a chuparos las bolas, o sea que será algo orgásmico

No la traducí porque no dice nada, es otro chiste

Ojalá regrese algún día a la banda para que interprete una de sus obras en vivo, sería interesante verlo en acción ya que parece que está en la sección "reservas" de gn'r para llamarlo en el futuro.
