Well, Del definitely kind of knows a little about things, and according to the mods/admins here some people in GNR land are aware of the situation, so I would say spamming her probably wouldn't help, plus she isn't GNR management so I wouldn't feel good about spamming her Instagram with forum war stuff lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although he did pop up on mygnr not too long ago and was here for a decent amount of time replying to people's questions so I am not counting it out that hopefully we can get in touch with him and talk about the situation Yes , i remember he appear here.I think make a statement is more appropiate to Fernando that he know this forum and don't many to Del James.

Popular Post downzy Posted August 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2018 Please do not start spamming various members of GNR asking for clarity on the matter. It will do no good. Again, a thorough investigation is underway. I’m hopeful that once the investigation has been completed that a statement will be issued. Expecting ongoing updates will only lead to disappointment. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slash and Duff coming back led to a lot of annoying things about following the band getting brushed under the rug, like Del James being an ass hole. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downzy Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Also, Del isn’t someone who can shed any light on the matter. It’s regrettable he responded to a stituation he didn’t know all the details, but this is exactly why we shouldn’t expect a comment or statement until all information provided can be vetted and a legal course of action is determined. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm nearly 48, and I've always paid for my music. I don't even know how bit torrent sites work, never mind stealing anything off them. There are people I work with that steal music and movies all the time. Millenials are always wanting their stuff for free, which is why concert ticket prices are insane, and movies are out on blu-ray three months after premiering in the theater. It's killing both industries. If music wasn't out there to be stolen, I'll bet these box sets would have been a whole lot cheaper. I'll also speculate the band would be more willing to release new music if they believed it wasn't going to be stolen off a torrent site before the physical copy can be released. I can't fault whoever's responsible for the You Tube clips disappearing. Some things are worth opening up your wallet for, which is why I own both the Locked N' Loaded set, and the Super Deluxe Edition. Call me Mr. Morals or whatever, but my love for this band and the joy they have brought to my life is why I'll always pay for what they're selling. 2 I was curious about this, is there any indication anywhere of how the boxset sold/whether it met expectations? I know AFD charted on billboard the week after, but otherwise, I haven't seen much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same fucking thing with ACDC and Van Halen. One does not even know if those bands exist anymore. So frustrating Its extremely frustrating because those are pretty much my 3 favorite bands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you’ve unearthed and shared some amazing stuff (not just merch). I would think if there is one person who could talk sense into Mofo you could do it. Alfred is a lost cause. I am beginning to feel that Alfred is a lost cause as well. Many people have asked why I haven't banned him from the Facebook collector's group yet. Only because I haven't seen any PROOF that he isn't working for the band/label/mgmt. I am not saying that he is of course. But I don't believe in acting on allegations and accusations alone, dependent on circumstances. I will talk to Mofo. I will say this - he is not someone that always tows the line. He has made some posts on the Nightrain forum that were quite critical of the fan club and management. Of course I agree that regardless of it all, there is absolutely zero need for any threats of any kind from anyone to anyone. I know who made one of the threats (the one to axlrose4life), but who made the threat to Gambit? Does anyone know for sure or will it take a cybercrimes unit to figure out I wonder? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) I cannot believe people are slagging of DC, as if they're akin to Guns. DC don't communicate between releases generally and they have been hammered with tragedies recently, Malcolm, the Rudd thing, Brian's vocals. If there is a band who deserves to be on a self-questioning ''hiatus'', it is DC! And when DC do start the engine, it operates as per normal: you'll get a brand new spanking album in your hands in small amount of time and a tour and live release to follow. Van Halen I cannot comment on. And if it is the end for AC/DC, well it'll be the end. They have had a good innings and we all know why it ended.

smiley Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 As much as I love and support this band... haven't we learned in the past 30 years how they treat us fans Sad but yet we keep taking it... How many interviews has the band (members) publicly made since NITL started? I don't expect any support or even a statement about this topic from the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
