alfierose Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I don't remember hearing that. I know it's been suggested many times that they should contact him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 A long while back I saw in a thread that GNR contacted evader.Never heard of that before but if they did, it was probably to sue him for mixing copyrighted material. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 They thought our cover of catcher was Axl singing the song so they killed him for leaking it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnfnrs1972 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 Well hell maybe I'm crazy but I do remember this. Maybe it was a cupcake thread. But I thought they were serious about working with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evader Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Thinking this is about me. I don't remember a thread. Nobody from GNR ever tried to contact me, nor would they. I'm not a musician or sound engineer. I'm just a hack who throws shit at the wall until something sticks, and I throw a lot of shit at the wall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hack would be the creator of remixes like Better Gone, Blood in the Water, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManetsBR Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Earlier this year I handed a few members of the band a "Best Of Evader" bootleg. It had a case, cover etc. Pitman was very interested. Is that what you're talking about?Im sure they were already aware of Evader's work before that, though.

gnfnrs1972 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) The thread was like he had been contacted and in a good way and said details would be posted later. But anyway the guy in this thread that says he's evader to you I say good work man. Your remixes are better than the originals. I would search for the thread but I don't see a search bar on here like there used to be. Edited December 16, 2014 by gnfnrs1972 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evader Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Yeah, your Silkworms doohickey was the best I've heard yet. Background vocals in the chorus sounded real at first!They are real. Just borrowed and rearranged bits from CD and Better, I think.I'm not a musician or sound engineer.You should consider to be one then. Your work is great for a "hack".Much appreciated. I assume you are talking about the 'sound engineer' thing since I still need sticky notes to tell me what notes are what on my piano and acoustic guitar.Evader since you are here did you remix This I Love with drums more guitars and bass throughout the whole song?Yes. Numerous times, numerous versions.Your version of Silkworms was brilliant to me. I loved it and would like to have an MP3 version of it.I'll try to remember to send you a pm with a link tomorrow. Want the long intro or abbreviated?AIO and Softie, thanks. I'll probably keep throwing shit at the wall. It can be quite entertaining at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modesty, self deprecation, and being humble are far too rarely seen nowadays. So in the internet world were false bravado and chest puffing seem to rule this was a breath of fresh air. Cheers < that was to be a guy holding up a drink, this is the closest I could find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
