Welp just found out they went with another candidate.  One day I hope to unearth this footage!

Ah bummer!

Thanks for keeping us updated!

He was probably never offered a full time gig because Fortus was still on board, and since he was only going to be part time he probably wasn't going to be paid as much as the full time members. Same situation as Adler.

This seems like the most likely possibility.

Is this track out yet? I'd love to hear it.

How did he screw up CD? I wasn't watching.

Wow.  Just wow.  That concert was amazing.  Having seen GNR both in 2010 and 2011, this obviously was a totally different experience.  I just can't believe how much better Axl can sound...5-6 years later.  Unreal.

Still in shock.  If the Pittsburgh concert wasn't on a damn Tuesday I'd drive up there and see them again.

By the way, I'm sure it's already been mentioned, but they upgraded everyone from the 400-level seats to 300-level.  So instead of the nosebleeds I sat just below them.  Not bad.  I'm guessing that was due to the fact that this concert sold pretty poorly and the stadium was pretty large.

Just voted.  Would like to see GNR win this.

I'll be attending.  Way up in the 400s though.

I can't wait to hear anything from Chinese Democracy...but I guess most excited for "This I Love" (if they play it).

Citi has access to just about the entire stadium it looks like. 

And those are the same prices that will be available on Friday?  My buddy is saying that decent tickets are $150!

Does it make sense to just wait for Friday?  My buddy has a Citi card and get me a few tickets through that.

Still not even a single clip of Chinese or Better?  I'd love to hear how those sounded.

Any videos of the Chinese songs?

You can hear clips of pre-2002 studio versions of Chinese Democracy, Madagascar, and The Blues in this video:

The Blues is the one that really intrigues me as it has a completely different solo. Loving that old school Chinese Democracy intro too.

+1 on this thread being useful. I had no idea what was going on with slash until I read this.

Finally some GNR news. Awesome read.

Definitely wasn't that video posted on the previous page. Cool jam, but not ITW.

Bumble...........please convince Axl and Beta to let you produce the next album. Have them send you the leftover CD tracks. Combine those with the best tracks that you and DJ have come up with. Work with those songs to produce a double-album, released in time for Christmas.

Thanks!!!

Well we can all dream I guess...

do it for yourself.

what does it matter what we think?

Agree with this. Letting us listen is just a bonus!

Since when is there a "higher fidelity" version of the pre-2007 tracks? Anyone heard these before?

Yeah it's simple guys - they are discussing the leaks and who to sue (most likely MSL).

Anyone want to hook me up please? Thanks!

Seeing as your ignored similar requests in the thread itself and are more likely to pay attention to threads featuring your name:

As for Blood in the Water, everyone is going to have the whole song soon anyway, so no need for me to comment.

Why are you certain of this?

Will it come in the form of a leak or official release from GNR?

I too am curious about this.

Translation => "We (Team Brazil) have no idea if Axl will do a tour, release an album, or work to get the vegas dvd out. Axl does what he wants and is being too difficult to give us any indication. If he ever let's us know, we wont keep it a secret. I'm sure it will happen eventually, but don't hold your breath."

I'm not blaming Team Brazil for this. They're trying to get stuff out of axl which is like trying to get water out of a stone.

This is kind of my thoughts. I don't think Team Brazil knows the answers, and Axl probably doesn't say much to them about future plans. I blame Axl.

I think it's better if we let this thing has an outcome first. As soon as we get a reply from Team Brazil, even if a NO, we're gonna share it.

Thanks, that's appreciated.

Since the questions were picked by the community, can you also post the exact letter than was sent? I'm just curious as to how it was written.

So what did this letter say? Can it please be posted? And maybe their responses too?
