But hope the band dont half ass it in terms of product. I reckon all they will do is remastered illusions, remastered tokyo DVDs and that will be it. I hope im proved wrong because i want to billboards, merch, dvds etc and the band really go all out for the fans and not an overpriced boxset again.

They could literally release a pro shot of the entire tour 30 years to the day of every show for 3 years from 2021 to 2023. But this is GNR they don't release shit 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Loose your illusions" would be a very good name to a new album. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shepP Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Not sure if this was mentioned but a cool trick is you can download a sample of the book. I just did via itunes. Gives a taste of what’s to come in July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives a taste of what’s to come in July. Anything good worth mentioning? I'm particularly curious about any insight (unless it's a rehash of what he's previously commented on) as to the 1994 - 1997 era, leading up to his departure. Funny how he and Axl met up in 2006 but Matt never really elaborated on exactly what was discussed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 There's a sample on Amazon, too. It's mostly the parts about his childhood and The Cult. There is a story about Axl supposedly saying that he wanted to fund the army in Nicaragua. Sorum mentioned something like that in the 2016 BBC documentary, too, only there it was Guatemala. Apparently Matt doesn't know anything about these countries or what he's talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From interviews I've seen Matt seemed to be the only one who challenged Axl on his lateness for gigs. It should be interesting. I'm sure Matt was offered a small guest spot on the NITLT tour but turned it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lim666 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 No, Matt said he wasnt asked for NITL tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themadcaplaughs Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 According to certain wrestlers (so believe it if you want) there's, for no real known reason, still bad blood on Axl's side regarding Sorum. Apparently, early in the negotiations, Slash and Duff even tried to bring up bringing Matt on board and Axl laughed it off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estrangedtwat Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I met Matt Sorum waaaaay back in the summer of 1999. Cool dude, he signed my UYI LP for me. I asked him about the SPIN artlcle tha had just been published and he laughed and said something like "Yeah, Axl wasn't too happy with me about that." Knowing how Axl holds grudges over the years, it could be as simple as he didn't like that Sorum was dishing dirt on him in the press over 20 years ago. Of course, Sorum has said much worse since then, so I can understand why Axl wouldn't want him around. He's a "Suppressive Person" as the scientologists would say.

Amaya Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) The Axl grudges are very stupid. He keeps his shyt list members for decades. It is a very poor reflection on him. He should have stopped that shyt by 2000, late 90s. He is to be pittied, well not pittied, but looked on as pathetic. Meanwhile Matt, Steven are living, happy, full, whole, healthy , adult real lives. I think Matt's book will very interesting and will sell well amoung GnR fans.

themadcaplaughs Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I've wondered what has happened to Axl's grudges that came about solely because of people associating with Slash. Back in 2014/2015, Josh Freese said he was bummed out about the fact that he ended up on Axl's shit list for playing on a couple tracks on Slash's 2010 solo album. So what happens now that Axl and Slash are cool again? Do people like Freese automatically end up back in Axl's good graces? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
