The label appears to still own the rights to the songs that are on the Chinese Democracy album, whereas the rights to the "NITL" singles are registered with the US Copyright Office as owned by Gundam (the GN'R business entity).

Hope u're OK Hun. Hear if you need me x

The next conference/hearing (which will be the compliance conference about the progress/status of the case) is set for Sept. 24, 2024, and the NOI due date (= the date that a form affirming that the depositions phase is completed and the case is ready for trial) has been moved from Feb. 22, 2025 to Oct. 21, 2024. So I guess there are no service issues, and the case is proceeding with discovery (witness depositions etc.) which should be completed by September.

I doubt Slash is going to be pissed off about shit that went down more than 20 years ago. Anyways... I know this is stupid, but I hope the launch of his personal website has to do with music. There are probably songs in the vault he really wants to release at some point, but that just don't fit with the current incarnation of Guns N Roses. Maybe he finally came to terms with it, and is going to release the more experimental stuff under his own name. And maybe, just maybe, release a classic GNR rock album with Slash and Duff. This might make too much sense to happen Another crazy idea: maybe his high pitched voice is actually done for and he'll reinvent himself and release solo stuff with his lower register. As a perfectionist he probably doesn't want to do that with GNR, so it's more ideal to do that as a solo artist. In which case we might get more piano driven songs. Anyways... with Axl and Duff doing their own solo stuff, it makes sense if Axl would do the same. However big or small that may be. It could just be a intimate piano tour... whatever. It can be anything. But it makes sense that he'll do something. Every year counts at his age and doing nothing is going to end in retirement at some point.

I don't think we'll see Bucket back ever. *If* (big if) Axl would release solo stuff, we might see Richard Fortus on it though. Or - and people are gonna hate this - DJ Ashba
