    Open Letter to Axl & my opinon about the CD Era

    in CIVIL WAR

    Posted · Edited by Gunnerfan_rus

    Why do you think that you know everything and have heard everything simply by some CDs from one locker?

    What if there are another 150 CDs?

    Or you really think that that's all that band did during those years? We just have a small portion of background things went to our hands.

    320 kbps, so not bad quality. The mixes are great in comparison and don't feature the weird audio watermarks the hoarders had on previous single releases of perhaps and atlas with weird beat skips and stereo jiggering. The mixes, for being rough, sound great. Definitely not yet mastered, so it is a notch below the actual sound of Chinese Democracy but still incredible and worth having.

     Actually the files are 320kbps but it's content is not - it's only 128~160 as you can see per frequency spectrum (the peak is around 16kHz). Seems like leaker made this type of rip. Imagine these songs in full quality! =0

    Whatever happened to the alternate covers?

    maybe 40-50 copies more or less i think

    There are 9 sold since the end of 2015 on Discogs + 12 in "have it" stats and I've seen at least 10 sold on Ebay for the last years. Don't think it's all the same people just reselling it so I'd say more likely 100-150 at least.

    If I remember correctly there was a post somewhere on the forum about some guy selling lots of it just for 50$ back in the day.

    By the way I have one too :)

    Guns n Roses kicking ass & taking names at its Vegas residency: Billboard boxscore

    in 2012

    And guys, when you're talking about attendance of the show, don't forget that there are not only tickets, that were sold, but there are also some free-entrance tickets for friends of band/organisators/promoters, etc. For example I was at Garbage's gig last Friday and there were about 300-400 people who entered for free, while overall amount of people was about 3,500-4,000!

    So, maybe billboard's numbers are without this free-entrance tickets.

    "Correct" fan club t-shirt arriving now

    The "skully" one is supposed to be the cool one. The generic one is just supposed to be a bonus.

    In my opinion this skully t-shirt is too modern and it looks like a lot of different shirts from clothes brands around the world. One difference that instead of brand's name we've got "Guns N' Roses"...

    "correct" shirt? so what is an "incorrect" short??

    Huh? Are you not aware of all of the wrong shirts that went out?

    No, haven't read about this..

    What's the story behind wrong shirts?

    Basically they just planned on sending everyone shirts with the Appetite For Destruction logo on them (or other generic "Hot Topic" style GNR shirts). However, word got out and everyone was pissed. So not only did they proceed with sending everyone the generic shirts, they also decided to send everyone another shirt with this new skull logo on it. So everyone got two (or more?) shirts.

    Oh, thanks!! Now I undrstand why I have two orders on gnr site - first with premium membership for $50 and second with simply "shirt" for $0!

    I live in Russia so I haven't received my orders yet - it takes about one month to get an order from USA to Russia without any fast mail shipping. They've sent first order on 26th of April, so I'll receive it soon. And second (with shirt) was sent on 18th of May..

    By the way, why might we receive two shirts (on with afd logo and another one which is too skully) instead of one cool t-shirt? It's so simple to create a gread design for the band that have thier own logotype (a lot of variants) and their own style (I mean we have guns, roses, bullets, chinese elements, different things from albums and singles covers)!

    Here's the link to the article (it's in Russian): http://www.dv.kp.ru/daily/25883/2845548/

    Guns was on afterparty in Premier Lounge club after second gig in Moscow, Axl danced on the table and fall down from it. He hit his hip. When band were about to fly to Dublin it was found that Axl can move only with pain, so he stayed in Moscow with doctor.

    Head of press service from Stadium Live (they are organisators of Moscow gigs) said: "Indeed, Axl Rose is still in Moscow, due to small health problems. A a good doctor watching for him, so we are confident that he will soon be able to continue his tour."

    Additionally on the afterparty someone from the band's crew set on Axl's favourite hat and broke it. But now it's finally repaired! :D

    So Axl is still in Moscow, while band is in Dublin. Hope he'll be ready on 17th of May, when Dublin's gig has place!

    Moral of the story: rock carefully, guys!
