Just listen to Bayou at Red Rocks. Its fun to watch for sure, but if you actually listen to the song he adds nothing musically. Its just him rocking out playing jumbled notes that, in all honestly, don't sound very good. Maybe he will be different in the studio, but if they are going to bring any guests in then they should bring in Tim, Bela or even Rashawn before Randolph since they are able to add something that actually makes the band sound better.
Don't know if this is old news

i haven't heard enough of RR to make a fair judgement - but guests in the past have done a great job - bela and alanis on spoon, timmy on everything decent - in the past DMB has guest parts be big enough to appreciate but small enough to still showcase the band and not the guest - i think thats the only acceptible 'format' if they bring more guests in the future

Probably not, tim has become a novelty act with the band these days.
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away
