Maybe she would have to be in LA to take studios photos to the album artwork and/or to promo things...But yeah, I think the fact that she has moved or not to Los Angeles is something personal, nothing related to a supposed new GNR album or whatever.

To listen to Guns you'd have to put on a specialist ''metal/classic rock'' show on. I heard PC on the radio the other day, and SCOM last week. And this is the biggest pop radio in NI.

Maybe she is just the type of person who responds to emails or thinks it's polite to do so. I wouldn't read anything into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britain listens to stuff like Oasis, Radiohead, dancey stuff and rap. The only place you'd hear Guns N' Roses is on a specialist classic rock radio station and I think those are just digital (DAB) and have sprung up rather recently; there are two I believe, Planet Rock and Absolute Classic Rock. You'd find Guns on there but nowhere else - maybe Radio X occasionally. Britain rather worships Oasis.

I listen to the BFBS online radio and it's only British music Never heard Gn'R or any other American band For some odd reason, the other day they played "Despacito" Musta been a hacker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to remember Guns never achieved a #1 single here like they did in America with Sweet Child. Appetite only reached #5 in the album charts. In the States it reached #1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyMac Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I am firmly in the thinking this is 100% Guns, my guess is the producer is Mutt Lange. With Axl's love of AC/DC and Bon etc... the best AC/DC albums were Mutt Lange albums and he would have to be considered a top 5 producer. Just my .02 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my .02 cents I don't know that the AC/DC camp keeps in much touch with Mutt though. Brendan O'Brien has done the last couple of albums so that would make me think he's higher on the list of "Angus recommended" producers if Axl came knocking on his door for advice.

HollyWoodRose84 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 They are a billion percent referring to Guns. Anyone who doesn’t notice that is blind, dumb or both. However...... Whether it’s true or not is a completely different story. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard November Rain played on a mainstream Australian radio station... I don't know why some people think Guns aren't big enough for radio time. If they're big enough to have the fourth highest-grossing tour of all time, they're big enough for radio... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd find Guns on there but nowhere else - maybe Radio X occasionally. Britain rather worships Oasis. I'd say that was true until about a year or so ago. I've heard both SCOM and PC recently on R2. CDAN has it's fair share of bullshit but they do have a reasonable hit rate too. I think this could be equally true/untrue and it could also be about GNR or another band, their version of A list in any given situation has always been very flexible. So many occasions where they have revealed blinds that everyone thought was Tom Cruise etc..then turned out to be some soap actor. I don't think at this stage in the game it's impossible that all three parties would agree to have an independent person make some of the harder creative decisions. If releasing an album (and further touring) is important to them I'm sure none of them want to end up in a situation where they fall out again over creative differences. Given that the NITL tour happened and without major incident I'm willing to assume Axl has perhaps changed his stance on a number of issues in the last few years.
