RussTCB Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I already own all the LPs that have been released, so honestly I wouldn't need a boxed set. I'd LOVE for Chinese to get a vinyl reissue that fixes the TERRIBLE inner groove issues but that's never going to happen :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I already own all their records (except Live Like A Suicide, which I wouldn't want a re-issue of anyway) so I'd pass. However, if they put out an AFD-30th Anniversary vinyl box I might be interested; could throw in an AFD re-issue with the cross cover, an LP of demos and alternate versions with the banned cover, a re-issue of the Live From The Jungle EP, and either a whole show from that tour (Felt Forum, please!) or a compilation from the '87-88 shows. That'd be better and more affordable than a box with all their albums in it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gackt Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I could see a 30th anniversary re-issue happening for Appetite next year, but a boxset would be nice for the Illusions albums Personally, I'd go for a 10th anniversary of ChiDem with improved mixing, with a 2nd disk of outtakes & demos, and a 3rd disk with the tracks played live at various venues (most likely with the current band) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be interesting too what songs were created when and with who and how they've evolved over time. Fill it with demo's for released songs and also all the unreleased material. There's supposed to be 2 more albums worth of songs. They could include a little book covering the history of the songs. You could have it span 1998-2008. I also still feel it should be called Chinese Leftovers and be packaged as: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always thought there should be at least some sort of companion set and it should be named Chinese Leftovers. If for no other reason than for rock critics to trip over themselves to get to a keyboard fast enough to be the first one to use a headline like "'Chinese Leftovers' Still Leaves Us Hungry For More" or something similar lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it's unfinished or not perfect they would easily get away with it. Then they can start fresh. I would love that headline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archtop Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 AFD-30th Appertite Anniversary vinyl box set with demos, live versions, and bonus photographic material from the era would interest me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I'm certain we'll get a 30th anniversary edition of AFD next. I swear though, if the word "remaster" comes anywhere near AFD, I'll cut someone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlRoseCDII Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I'd take any sort of release from this band at this point. Even if it was just a 3 second track of Axl farting, at least it shows the band cares about the fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silent Jay Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I'm not buying a single thing that isn't new. We want new songs. Appetite For Destruction doesn't even need to be remastered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure how that would show he cares about fans either... 1 hour ago, shotsfired cro said: what is the point of these 'what if' threads!? nobody ever mentioned a possibility of a vinyl boxsete in the first place It is fun to think about the possibilities that could exist and chat with other fans about them. And maybe a miracle will happen and someone from the GnR camp will see the desire and think, "Hey that is a good idea." Not likely by any means, but we can dream right?

JimmyPage Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) I don't need a vinyl box set of already released material. As a Guns N' Roses fan what I want is new material. Although, I do think a "Chinese Democracy" boxset would be interesting! I would love if they did something akin to the "Let It Be...Naked" project, some of the overdubs and mixing decisions on the released version of "Chinese Democracy" make me scratch my head sometimes. Why out of all the takes Axl must've done for the vocals of "Sorry" did he pick the take with the faux Jamaican accent? Why is there a random saloon piano in "Catcher in the Rye"? Why is there an audible bleep in "Chinese Democracy"? Why is there auto - tune on "Street Of Dreams"? I could go on and on, I love the album, it could be better though.

Live Like a Suicide Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Depends if it has any new content. If it's just all the albums tossed into a box, then no thanks. But if we get some rare behind-the-scenes stuff, or some new music, then sign me up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
