Earlier this week, the band revealed that they're parting ways with Ferrer, and will be joined by a new drummer, Isaac Carpenter, for their upcoming tour.

> "Frank Ferrer is leaving Guns N' Roses," the band's statement reads. "The exit is amicable and the band wishes Frank all the best in his future endeavors.

> "Taking over the drum duties is Isaac Carpenter, who has been a member of AWOLNATION since 2014. He will be joining Axl, Slash, Duff, Dizzy and DJ Ash Fury on the upcoming 'Because What You Want and What You Get Are Two Completely Different Things' tour, which will see Guns N' Roses play in Saudi Arabia for the first time ever. The tour kicks off May 1 in South Korea before heading to the Middle East, Europe and the UK."

Ferrer, who joined GNR in 2004, shared a statement of his own, expressing his "disappointment" in the departure.

"The outpouring of love I have felt from the incredible fans of Guns N' Roses and my peers over the past 24 hours has been tremendous," he wrote. "I will have immense gratitude and love always for Axl and the band while at the same time, disappointment that this chapter came to an end. It has been an incredible 19 years. Guns N' Roses has given me life-changing memories and experiences. A huge thanks to management, the crew, and fans for giving me memories that I will cherish for my lifetime. I hope I see you all again soon!"
