    One I could make out:

    April 18, 1995

    - Machine Gun and Toothpuller

    It says GNR DEMOS REELS 3

    I remember a Dizzy interview talking about Toothpuller:

    On Izzy: [...]I saw the guy a couple years back in the studio… and he was showing me a song he had just written called "Toothpuller" – it was literally about him visiting the dentist and getting a tooth pulled out. [Dizzy then sings some of the lyrics] I mean… this is a guy who wrote some badass songs and now he’s writing about getting his tooth pulled… I mean come on… can you imagine Axl singing that live?’

    Hi all,

    First time in Africa for me, coming from the UK and excited for this one.

    No idea what I am doing really, flying solo and unsure as to best way to get to and from the Stadium post-show. If anyone can help or wants to meet up, please let me know. This will be my 36th show.

    Hi Greg

    I'm flying solo too. I'll write you a pm later today

    I was really surprised when they announced there'd be 10,000 of these things at $1000 each. Maybe a 5000-limited run would have sold out but no way were they selling 10,000 of these boxsets at that price.

    According to Troccoli's contacts:

    At least 8000, but probably closer to 8500.  According to my contacts at the label.

  4. Something like this:

     

    Call...
    Call it The Plague
    Call again, call ... ... call (the names?) that you want
    Cause you know that you are but you just won't (bleed?) me

    So you've been nailed to a cross
    What it cost?
    What's your loss?
    But you know that a cheap imitation just won't free me

    I don't know what you been (putting me through?)
    But I will put it (to an end?)
    You been walking on (thin ice?)
    You are on the (scheme?)
    I said (...)

    I won't take it anymore
    I won't take it anymore
    I won't take it anymore
    I won't take it anymore

    Yes he was crowned with a spike right through his brain

     

    Actually, Axl sings "Izzy was crowned..."

     

    In case you haven't noticed, the lyrics of the version included in the Alan Niven CDs is a little different, Axl mentions everyone!

    Slash was drowned, he was washed up and left for dead.
    Steven scowled, at the sight of the crust of bread.
    Duff looked around, there was no sign of our friend.
    Izzy was crowned, with a spike right through his head

  6. ^^ You don't need to "crack" anything. Just extract the dts audio from the m2ts files and convert it to wav. There are plenty of software capable of doing this.

     

    By the way, I was just messing around with the files in audacity. Did you hear Izzy's backing vocals in Mr. Brownstone??! Those are amazing! love his falsetto lol
    I also like the backing vocals on ISE, PC and UTLH, nothing fancy but so punk rock :headbang:

    So cool to being able to discover these little pieces here and there I didn't even know were there.
