First listen: I like it. The fast parts are surprising!

All cautions made All things consideeeeered You know, that was the original lyrics, which Slash wrote, but then Axl changed it, they bickered about it, and that's why they finally broke up. More info in Dizzy's upcoming autobiography.

True, the only rule is: with GNR, one never knows. If somebody asked a few years ago, guess what their first single will be? How many would have said Silkworms? Plus, how many would have said Silkworms without getting laughed at severely...

The black-and-whiteness again. How about a mixture? Half and half, more or less, or at least some proportion? Don't expect all new songs / all new vocals as that's crazy and nothing suggests that; don't expect, however, a solely reworked CD either - cause Slash didn't return to his super famous mother band to just noodle over fucking 20-year old demos recorded by some replacements. Clearly, it needs to be an approach that combines both of these components.

Hey @Dexter, how about some chat again? Didn't you say something like same time, same bat channel some thirteen years ago? Looks like a dead season ahead of us. Come on man, don't be like that.

Spot on.

Here’s some inspiration as to how to do things: Ghost’s Tobias Forge says "The idea is for the album to be recorded in January. The actual recording will last around six weeks and then there’s two to three weeks of mixing and mastering. So sometime in March the record should be finished, but it won’t be released until after the summer." Btw #1: He's also said "I was always a big fan of Slash and Keith Richards. I wanted to be the cool guitar player rather than the singer. It’s so ludicrous because I know nothing about telephones or computers. I just mastered the art of bullshitting. I was sitting there just wishing for another life. Towards the end of 2009, I felt I needed to take the little time I had and focus all of it on one thing. And Ghost was the best thing I’d ever done." Btw #2: This guy is so fucking cool I can’t even fathom it. Long live Papa!

Anything, as long as it's not about effin Covid.

I'm not even gonna bother.

Stay of Execution starts now

These are cornrows, you can undo them and end up with still having your hair, if a bit messed up for a while.

Ha, I’d say the other way round, but ok. Come on dude, it sounds like the good ole "the band doesn’t owe you anything". I mean, you don’t have to always defend them like we’re at htgth. Look at it from those casuals’ p. o. v. They’d been put off by whatever Axl was doing during all those "Nu" years, which – as far as they're concerned – were years when GN’R didn’t exist; then they heard the wonderful news, finally saw those two or three together on one stage, nicely standing next to each other; and having expected some first good rocker, some indicator this is the real deal, they got slapped in the face with Silkworms (I don’t literally hate the tune, the lyrics are quirky, I just think this would be the last song to go for out of all the shelf stuff) – and not only as the first single, but also as the heavily expected, prayed for reunion/comeback album opener? I’m telling you, they’d be quite annoyed. And from the musical point of view, Absurd would be a terrible opener anyway. Good on you! To each their own, after all.

Putting Silkworms as an opener would be the biggest FY to all these so-called casual fans that made them multi-millionaires by repeatedly buying tickets (and merch) to hear SCOM and the likes.

Back to inactivity, jokes, and weird new threads...

Seriously, how hard is it to make a DVD? https://www.facebook.com/gunsnroses/videos/1493253241029775/
