Think she covered some skid row hits too. Not sure if it was remember you or youth gone wild

I happened to be watching when GNR came on. The band sounded great but axl was horrendous. No way that performance will get any new fans. It was cringeworthy. Reminded me of Vince Neil clips. I saw them in 2018 Thought it was a good show. You don’t notice what you do watching sitting at home on your couch. I thought it was really bad. Slash was great though and looked cool. Axl needs to just be a studio musician. He looked and sounded completely ridiculous

Great story. Not the best pic but it’s from the 01-01-01 vegas show. Wish I got to see them in the 80s/early 90s though
can’t figure out how to post a pic

I was there. Best part was having no idea what to expect. I was nervous they might not even show up. The internet was still sort of new so there were no leaks etc. we knew slash and duff weren't in the band but didn’t really know anything about bucket head. I remember waiting in line for a while and completely missed New Years because think the doors opened at 1am. They didn’t go on until like 4am. Opening notes of welcome to the jungle was insane. I remember just jumping around about 2 rows back where general admission was for the whole show. I remember thinking Live and let die was really good for some reason. The blues was my favorite new track. It sounded like something off of the illusions albums the first time heard it. Axl sitting on the piano and the welcome back chant was also a highlight. Only lowlight for me was bucket heads stupid nunchuck solo. It was day light by the time the show ended.

Wow! Who would have guessed that 2019 axl was 1992 Beck guitar tech. Amazing

I would have guessed that since they just played austin they would have played locomotive instead of coma. Would never expect many changes from last week but that seemed like a logical swap

Thanks for all the info. Is this correct?
The only unheard/unreleased songs with vocals that have been leaked so far are:
Atlas Shrugged
Perhaps
Hard School
State of Grace
Eye on You
any others?
How many unheard songs from these demos with vocals have yet to leak? Zodiac, Quick song, any others?

12 minutes ago, Creed said:
Riad and the Bedouins is the only song which sounds outstandingly different. its the wildest rocker on the whole album! I never liked the song, but this thing is just wild. EVERYONE SHOULD CHECK THIS OUT!
Madagascar is the other track which is mixed much better. beside the pitman synth trumpets and Axls voice which is too monotone at some parts.
Whats really annoying is Pitmans synth. I will never understand why the didnt choose a real orchestra...the synth sounds cheap as fuck and makes a lot of these songs annoying.
Great call on Riad. It this is def the best version. This leak is really bringing me back to 2001 when I made my own greatest hits cd and included the blues, Maddy from rock in rio and the riad from audience recording from the house of blues .. great stuff
-
Wow. Impressed by Atlas and Perhaps also my favorite version of the blues and catcher. I really wish slash and Duff take a turn with Atlas. It still sounds like there is an awkward transition during the song. I love the beginning though. Sounds exactly how and evolving GNR should have sounded back in 2000. Songs like Better would have been a perfect on a follow up album to even further progress their sound. Nothing will ever beat AFD in my opinion... but this would have been a great album back in early 2000s

I don’t like the Mac daddy part but I could see this being a current day hit if he collaborated with a popular dj like Calvin Harris to make that part something less cheesey. I like the vocals in this one though
-
GnR should just drop these on ITunes if they are going to leak anyways. Seems like no downside if they give the unheard songs the same treatment they gave Shadow of your Love.. clean them up a little bit and just drop the tracks on iTunes. If they get bad reviews the band can say they were just demos. If one is a hit then it’s just gravy.
-
The vibe and sound of these tracks are exactly what I hoped new GNR would sound like. Include the early version of the Blues as a ballad and Better as serious forward sounding track and you have yourself a nice little EP. I would love to hear studio versions slash and duff take on Catcher, TWAT, The Blues, better and Atlas. Just rock music. No electronic synth noises and over dubs. That would be a great mini album despite only really having 1 new song.

Has anything leaks other than 2 clips and the scom rehearsal? Can the first page of the thread be updated with what’s been leaked like a set list thread 🤣
-
Wow 25 more pages since last night. Not asking for a link... just a summary of what’s leaked. Last I read was a clip of atlas and checkmate and a scom rehearsal. Have I missed anything?
-
All I would really be interested in is remastered (or even redone) demos of unreleased songs from that era. Ain’t going down, crash diet, too fast, sentimental movie etc....
-
Not sure why I just didn’t do this in the first place but just messaged the seller through eBay to ask them what this was all about and they got right back to me. Sounds like he has other items too No idea what his connection is but figured I would pass along the info
These are studio recordings from when the band was recording Appetite for Destruction. I have others, just haven’t listed them yet.

What would an original shirt go for? I had one but sold it shortly after the concert for about 250 bucks. I needed the extra money after splurging on going to the show. Now I regret selling it.

01-01-01 Japanese import claiming to be a soundboard
I never knew their was a soundboard recording of this. I had the old Kenyoke bootleg that I got back in 2001 that was made from an pretty good audience recording. I really wish I saw this before the auction ended. Is this common knowledge that this is out there and been around a while or is this new. At first I thought it was a leaked cd from 2001 that I remember was being sold on a Japanese site HMV I think. I remember pre ordering It and still waiting to get it. 19 years was a heck of a pre order.
Also anyone have any clue what this was? I posted it in another thread too. Seems very strange to me.. sold for 5.5k

Anyone know what this eBay listing was all about? 6 studio tapes??? No pics or really any info and it sold for 5k . No feedback from the seller either so most likely nothing but thought I would ask

I was at the 01-01-01 show. I remember waiting in line to get in and completely missed any sort of New Years count down. It was a crazy time because we really had very little information. I didn’t know who was in the band. Just knew that slash wasn’t. I had no idea about any of the new songs or even if any new songs would be played. The show ended up being a blast. The highlight was the welcome back chant .. the lowlight was bucket heads nunchuck solo. Hearing the blues for the first time was also great. The song sounded like it belonged with other illusion tracks. It’s still one of my fav Chinese democracy songs.

I’m looking forward to seeing the South Africa one too

I’m actually from Westerly... the fact this is national news is mind boggling and embarrassing. The republican senator is an idiot for responding.. or even caring what the restaurants views are. I don’t agree with impeaching the president. I think it’s a stupid position.. but I also couldn’t care less that Amigos sold those shirts. Anyone offended by a tee shirt must have mental problems. It’s usually the liberals who have so much faux outrage. I won’t vote for Elian Morgan again
-
would anyone that is going to this show mind picking up an extra litho? My brothers wife is from Derbin and I want this for a Christmas gift (maybe a late one) for him. It’s not going on eBay to flip. Please PM me if are going and interested in working something out.
Thanks

I generally don’t like complaining on here or be negative about what GnR does... but I made the mistake of clicking on the holloween merch e-mail and can only shake my head... who would actually buy one of these shirts? They are the cheesiest designs I’ve seen yet.. have to be an inside joke or something
“Welcome to the patch” ???? Come on guys.

Will Guns cancel the 2020 shows due to COVID-19? Update: tour has been paused

This seems like the most over blown, media driven hysteria of our lifetime. The mortality rate is the same as the standard flue. CNN etc keep pushing the narrative but the facts don’t support their ridiculous fear mongering. I never bought the “mass media is biased” narrative until now. CNN’s treatment of the coronavirus is borderline scandalous. Updating every day with a blaring headline about a disease that is completely harmless to healthy people under 70 simply because fear leads to clicks is outrageous.
