Subtle Signs

Agreed, needs new management lol 

What good would that do? If Axl is really calling all the shots it doesn't matter who the management is when he has final say.

do you think these will sell less than Slash's signature guitars?  

The average rock fan has no clue who Richard Fortus is. I'd imagine most fans on here can't really name memorable songs he's written. That's no knock on him though as the guy is probably a millionaire and is having signature guitar models made. 

Lol. This Forum rules. Half say it was awesome,half say Axl sucked. I'm more curious to know the live crowds reaction. Obviously they are there for the classics but the song is out so did anyone care or did it go over like a fart in church?

Is Izzy there? If not, what does this have to do with the guns show tonight?

If you guys want to feel old, I wasn’t even born when Axl recorded vocals for Hard Skool.

I've been alive for six decades. AFD crew 4 life.

Pass. For close to $40 shipped that should be a limited color version signed by everyone on it that's not Axl,Slash or Duff. I'll wait for the full album on vinyl and purchase that. Definitely not a *complaint, complaint, complaint* many (not me) thought our favorite band wouldn't release new music. I can't imagine this appeals to anyone outside of the diehards that paid a grand for the AFD box.

A broken clock is right twice a day. Time to collect from those who said GNR will never release new music. Yea it's new old music but who cares? Maybe the gnfnr ep guy was right or maybe even better it's a new full album.

This is from a fake insider/troll. The same user posted another "list" just a few days ago:

We now believe even more. Thank you by take care us. Key west is better than the old one.

AFD 5 in studio. Didn't see GNR live til 92 so I guess that's my favorite live lineup. 

I saw the tour in London,Ontario and while it wasn't quite as awesome as my first Gn'R show in 92, it was still cool to see probably the second best time for the band besides 85-93 .

So weird seeing GNR playing a stadium in Vegas. I always think of Vegas for small venue shows like the HOB and The Joint. Man times have changed. 

Illusion era GnR were a stadium band at times. Obviously Axl and whomever weren't gonna fill stadiums in the US. Axl,Slash ,Duff (to a much lesser extent) and any random musicians are back in stadiums.

I think it was so cool for @facefirst to invite @Fernando over for a play date here.

If F is still around, here’s my question for him: What did you and Izzy talk about the other day?  

Where was it posted that Fernando talked to Izzy?

She attacked margott just a cpl months ago 

Just a few days ago she told someone the world would be a better place without him just cause he didn't like absurd

Dang. If Beta is attacking the number one GnR super fan then it's truly the end of days.

i think that the "fuck tb or fernando" signatures damaged the forum from contacting with the gnr people, i mean i don t thibk they r a great maganment but it just does t help 

I don't think it's that so much as he could have seen people referring derogatorily towards his Mom. Criticize GnR management all you want but to attack his Mom with demeaning names is childish and uncalled for .

Shot? It could be another Medusa spewing. 

As long as Lars Ulrich doesn't have to sign off on anything things should be good  

I can see it now on Rolling Stone. Earlier today Gn'R manager @Fernandoconfirmed the release of _______ by Guns n Roses on GnR fansite Mygnrforum.com.

Yes. A lot of people seem to be excited about it but it's not a big deal to me at all. 

Forget cassettes GnR should press up a limited number of hard skool 8 tracks .

Well that was unexpected. I figured people would kiss his ass which is better than the usual bashing since none of us know him or Beta in real life really. 

If vinyl is being pressed I'd imagine that bodes well for an album since as others have mentioned,plants are backed up for months. Can't imagine they'd just press an Absurd single that would only appeal to the hardest of hardcore fans. 

Anyway @Fernandohow about giving us a scoop? Forget Rolling Stone this is the largest online Gn'R fanbase.

No, the rehearsals started in january.

The shows started three months later. 

I've been gnr-educated(tm) and rightly so. I meant that Coachella was announced in January. Either way I doubt GnR had plans in July that gave way to a Coachella announcement in January. But who knows.

I believe it because @downzy said he was in contact with the GNR camp in July 2015, that Axl and Pitman were working on the album every day, that DJ leaving had absolutely nothing to do with a reunion, and (I believe) he said that there was still negativity towards Slash at that point, so there weren't even any reunion talks going on.

There had to be reunion talks. The first show was in January. I doubt that all came together with multimillion dollar contracts in five months. It probably started as soon as Axl and Slash started talking again.

Idk I can't belive that it's true, and even if it is Slash would've shut that down immediately had DJ accepted and showed up at rehearsal.

I doubt that. Slash went along with Frank over Matt/Steven, Richard over Izzy, Melissa being in etc . He knew that hundreds of millions were on the line. He wasn't walking away from that over Ashba. Axl calls the shots.

I don't think GNR gets to make that decision; falls to the venue and the city and state it's located in.

That being said, there's a free and easy way for your mates to make sure you don't get screwed. 

According to this article, GNR could make that decision.

Anyone thinking about the current Covid climate and how some, if not the rest of this tour might get cancelled? 

Jazzfest in NOLA was just cancelled after adding the Rolling Stones to their lineup, and every venue down here requires proof of Vax for entry and a mask even if you're already vaxed up. It would appear we are headed back into it..

Maybe thats why the boys decided to whip out the new track so early in the tour?

Live Nation is giving bands the right to ask for vax/proof of neg test. Now while that won't knock it down to zero it's better than the current precautions for most tours which are zero. It's gonna come to  vax/neg test/masks or no touring again.

I hated this song with a passion an hour ago but this studio cut is not bad at all. This would have been the best song on CD and Slash kills it. Still working on getting past the “pussy full of maggots” lyric, but I’ll get there. 
 

Fuck GNR for their toxic treatment of me because they’ve got me for awhile again. Goddamn I love this band.

The best song on CD? Pass that pipe! I can't think of a song on CD I wouldn't rather hear than this except maybe TIL.
