This is a fucking Happy Day for me!!! Just came upon this on youtube and wanted to post the news for everyone! Watch now, we all know how these things tend to vanish out from under us!

In case there was any doubt: Original instagram post: https://www.instagram.com/p/C5VV5yTs8o3/ Seems like the first 'fresh' recording since the reunion is in fact a cover, is Axl/Slash/Duff and Zak (Ringo Starr's son), and may be released soon.

He "hopes" Axl is mixing the track right now? great lol

The version Buckethead and Robin Finck would have recorded in 2000whatever would have been so much better!

It's not a true Guns N' Roses song without Frank Ferrer on the drums. Hard pass.

some fans...

We feel generally speaking that despite the best efforts & F'N attempts from those who would wish to position themselves as shall we call them ..... "insiders" That "digs" or otherwise negative assessments on the character of either myself, Guns (as an entity either in part or whole) serve only in the long run & the F'N short run as well in all honesty to be nothing more than an attempt to "sap" or "cloak" the energies of all involved..... At the expense of both myself......and you the fans.... I say fuck that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We sat down.......... Idea's on my (our) website were shared back N' forth N' by both myself & ""Interested parties" in a 3 hour meeting some years ago.... Fernando took the ball & walked very slowly with it, passing it to a dedicated team who understand the cutting edge of the "world wide Webs" Fernando had wanted (to his credit) to be part of the website (designed to promote a sense of progressive healing & serenity) however his computer, phone, wifi roota, & F'N otherwise assorted electrical paraphernalia's were taken away by the F'N PO PO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We feel the book will happen at a time best in the interests of both myself, Guns, NuGuns, management, Previous management, Bookshops, online retailers, Print setters, & cover artist A, Cover artist B, Cover artist C, Best Buy, Wallmart ect, ect. As soon as all those assorted parties fall into place and shall we say otherwize "click" You will see it... PEACE OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW M'F'N' VOTE!!!!!!!!!!! PS....Check NIGHTRAIN FOR LTD EDITION GN'F'N'R PLASTERS/ & OTHEWIZE ASSORTED BANDAIDS COMING SOON IN 2028

Of course it's official. It's unmistakable amateurish with lower case "rose" and one-sided quotation mark:

Time to add my three cents on Katowice, Poland show. Me and my crew were there at the venue since 10:00AM, preparing the surprise for the band. We pumped 200 balloons in the form of '4' to celebrate newest SMKC album, also called '4'. We brought those up after Mammoth WVH, shortly before the SMKC show started. Handed them to people in front rows. Even though a good part of balloons didn't make it before the show started, it's been quickly noticed by the band and later during the set Myles appreciated it once again, talking about polish fans always being special to the band. Around 4:00PM we've been invited by Cheryl Hall (SMKC Tour Manager) and Slash's new bodyguard Mike to the soundcheck. We could watch it in full - not my first time but hearing Slash's guitar alone and raw is always something unique. There we have had a scheduled meeting with the band, where guys signed the middle section of our 2013 welcoming flag (check video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k9DQVH0YeA&ab_channel=LiveMusicPL), which at the time was 12 meters long. Eleven years ago we cut it in few parts and sold all of them for charity, current owner of the middle (biggest) section of the flag reached me and I arranged the meeting. Entire band signed it and we will auction it for charity again early next winter. Here are some photos of guys signing it: The show itself was really good, band as always was super tight and the chemistry was obviously floating around. Myles has been sick for few days already which you could hear while talking to him, but he did a really good job on the show itself. It's a nice addition to have Todd singing 3 fastpaced songs, those were like nitro boosters to the audience. Rocket Man is something that any Slash's fan should hear live, both pedal steel and Myles' vocals makes it a magical time in the set. Guys were tired, you can tell that playing a show each day in different countries isn't for them anymore, you won't fool the clock. They aged and you can see it. I was hoping for some private moment between SMKC and the audience, Slash even teased us with Paradise City intro after Myles thanked us for the surprise, but nothing happened. I rate the night 10/10 though, guys, the management and security were super kind to us, Slash got late to an interview because he did not rush our meeting with the band. Super guy, amazes me everytime I meet him. R.

this was actually convincing I thought it was real

A book is forever, a podcast or tv show is not. An autobiography would be for the fans who would gladly invest some time into reading it, instead of having a podcast on in the background or watching a tv show after work. Some things are worth your time. I would be devastated if they split tomorrow. Well, maybe devastated is a strong word, but I would be very sad at least. I still enjoy the shows, as do many, many people.

Full performance of Perfect Crime

https://www.officialaxlrose.com/ this is operated by Live Nation and himself or someone else has added it to his Twitter bio though so I would say it’s legit

Oh no, we can’t see Dizzy Reed

That's not a mistake. Axl (the man) rose (ascended) to fame

Not the best quality but it’s a first look on the album cover sleeve

Hello, I searched for a thread about GNR related tattoos and couldn't find it... So, if you have any and want to share yours, here it is I just got mine done, I've been wanting it for a long long time

Of course not everyone will know who he is, but he's more than 'broken into the mainstream from time to time'. Being at the oscars doesn't mean much, but he's played the superbowl, was the face of a massively successful video game (Guitar Hero), played with everyone from Eazy E to Michael Jackson to Lemmy. He's literally the 'classic rock guitar player' halloween costume lol, his look is even more iconic than the music he's played. I could go on, but if there's any guitar player that's managed to keep their pop culture relevance as high as other (older) pop stars, it's Slash.

10 bucks says this will literally never be updated again or lead to anything. Axl starts projects, probably does put serious work on them, and then does nothing with them or it fails to materialize. This is a pattern of over 20 years and until proven otherwise I will assume nothing will change.

He also predicted Instagram.

Some of my phone photos from the UK leg of the tour

Garden Of Eden. Because of this bit...

I would be disappointed. I broke my foot three days before the GNR show at MetLife. I didn't have the chance to see them last year. Additionally, seeing GNR is my enjoyment. When you work for a high pressure company and have to deal with some other stress, you want to do things that bring you enjoyment. Eventually GNR will cease to exist. Why would any fan want to rush the inevitable? Go to the concert and enjoy the music. There will come a day where either you or GNR will not be able to do so.

Perfect Crime got a run out in Budapest! Fuuuuuuuuck!

Axl Rose is 62 years old. It's fucking insane reading ya'll say shit like "years later" in regards to when GnR will get around to new music .... It's like there's no self awareness that this dude is 62 years old and has had a declining vocal capability for years now ... I swear some of you don't recognize the fact that this isn't 40 year old Axl from 2002 anymore ...

This dude is pretty good at making "studio" sounding tracks and NO he doesn't use AI! This shows what a cool little ditty WL could be on an EP .... Loving this 💜

Too bad he didn't predict that there would only be one more Guns n' Roses studio album after UYI (2 if you count TSI) so that fans could have been prepared.

Some fans are just weird as fuck. Collecting used band-aids is psycho behaviour.

Maybe he got laid?

Hope he's doing good.

On my way home from the show and I have to say it was A LOT better than I expected. Band was great (Myles included, even though I’m usually not his biggest fan). The crowd seemed very into it although the older songs were received better than the 4 stuff. Slash was awesome! My favorites were Driving Rain, Back from Cali, Starlight, Dr Alibi, Bad Apples, WOF and Rocket man. I’d definitely go and see them again.

No matter from which point of view I’ve ever thought about this guy, I don’t think it’s possible for me – or anyone else really – to just fathom his mind-set, or personality in general. I mean, he has to live in a very special kind of bubble. And by this I don’t mean just that classic rock-star business that we probably can very vaguely imagine (the omnipresent fame aspect, chicks in hot tubs, money, not having to work, parties with celebs...). This guy has the balls to do gigs in front of 200 thousand people. Like the Freddie M. thing, yes. Doesn’t rehearse or often attend sound checks, comes hours late while doing god knows what. Then he has studios booked, with musicians sitting in there while he doesn’t show up for months and the money is pouring away. But then he does a gig and nails it and people love him, even when there's nobody else from his heyday music pals in the band. He calls Angus and becomes the singer of AC/DC, with the whole world watching. I think you have to be a bit of a psychopath to pull something like that. He releases an album that became a myth even before seeing the light of day, and then only chats on the internet, never promotes it, and takes a whole year to even start touring it. He knows people grab at every opportunity to see him and yet tends to disappear from the public eye for years, while folks on the internet are left to speculate, analyse 20-year old photos, and download dubious leaks. Sets up social media but barely ever uses them and has at least months’ gaps in those that he does use. Never lets anyone tell him what to do. Drags along his surrogate family with him anywhere he goes, giving off a vibe of a small cult. Doesn’t talk to the media, treats everything as a government top secret, takes years to release anything, and then puts out a questionable tune, to say the least, as the first song. No, I don’t think he’s straight-up lazy (and definitely cannot be characterized by just a single word, whatever that would be), but he definitely is a hell of an idiosyncratic, bizarre, difficult to comprehend, crazy enigma of a character, that’s for sure.

CHAPTER 12 : He's in my ass, that's where Slash is, Fuckhead, go home!

This thread is the definition of irony.

I know a very creepy (and lucky) fan. His name is Jarmo.

maybe the lack of Myles Kennedy vocals and melodies

I noticed I had several of my covers restored from the dead. Maybe there's something finally going on with all of this bullshit.

Great show tonight, I'm home and I'm knackered. @Dazey what did you think?

This thread is going so bad that people didn't even had any jokes on April 1st.

Does the fact that it's Live Nation tell us more? I mean, could it be tequila or a book then? Or would it always be music related? No, it's a smart pun, Axl rose to fame

I wonder if a book could be on the way?

Has a gallery and a news section. This could be me being hopeful & it's obviously a huge stretch but if he now has a separate site to GN'R it makes me wonder if he has plans to do anything else separately

This comment from Youtube lol: @Nitromessiah 7 hours ago This is one of the worst version of this classic song I've ever heard. Slash wrote 1-3 great licks, and has made an entire career off of it. He's just average at best, but he looks cool doing it.

The production value on both songs we have heard so far is orders of magnitude better than anything I have heard from Slash since WOF or from GNR since the early 90's. I wish someone could get Axl locked in a room and force him to listen to how well produced this new Slash stuff is and ask him how on earth he isn't ashamed to put the GNR name on the last batch of songs they have been releasing. Kudos to Slash on this project though as it feels fresh and dynamic despite being an album of cover songs. He clearly didn't mail it in and just slap his name on it as something to release to keep his name out there. I think my favorite thing about him is that regardless of what genre he is playing he manages to kind of fit in yet still sounds like himself and how you expect Slash to sound. When he played with Michael Jackson even I marveled at that how it was still clearly Slash but not Slash at all if that makes sense. I think he could make a killer southern rock style album with a guy like Chris Stapleton based on how good this song sounds.

On my way to the show in Copenhagen, let's gooooo

What the fuck. That was perfect. An absolute demonstration of Force, Power and being the Guitar God. I'm a bit lost for words. Anybody who says that Slash has lost "it" should go and suck whatever he or she wants to suck.
