Get this thrown on. Really good interview.

How long ago is that now since Fernando mentioned they were hoping to have one out for Christmas? I do hope they get something out to document how huge that tour was but obviously I'm pretty stoked that we're getting The General finally after all of those years and that surpasses any excitement I'd have for a Blu Ray release!

I have looked so hard too lol- it’s impossible to find anything ! I’m glad I’m not the only one!! Who is Troccoli, is that the person with the booklet?
Yeah it was his! I believe there are only two acetates of it in existence, but who really knows?!

I wasn't expecting the quality of Depending On You. I reckon it'll go down as one of my favourites from their catalogue. Get Close is inferior to Angry IMO.
-
I had a look to try and source the original artwork a few years back and had no joy. You may be able to reach out to Troccoli and ask for a scan of it as I believe it's the picture taken from his site.

I feel like Ghost Town isn't getting enough love here. I still enjoy that song a lot.
It was a grower. I didn’t love it from the off but after several plays it ended up becoming an ear worm. Doom and Gloom would probably get into my top 10 favourite Stones songs. I played that shit to death!!!

I really loved Doom and Gloom, too. Excited for the entire record, but if this ends up being the best song, I won’t be disappointed
Doom and Gloom was superb. So is Angry. Looking forward to throwing on the full thing!

Sailing, Wembley 2006. Unreal. What a voice. What a band.
House of Blues 2001 and Rock In Rio III are by and large my most played Guns shows, which surprises even me given how much I played Rock AM Ring back in the day. Axl really put it all out there vocally. I know the '02 voice is an acquired taste, but the range and power he had, to sing two part harmonies on KOHD himself is testament to how confident he was in his chops at that point. That House of Blues show from 01/01/01, in terms of start to finish, has to be up there with one of the most flawless vocal performances he's ever done. The small stage obviously plays it's part, but it's essentially studio quality vox for the duration.

Some solid efforts on there, I wasn't anticipating enjoying it as much as I did. Some of the tunes stemmed from the demos he had on his MySpace page around 2005, obviously under different titles.

Tobias is all over Chinese and has his name against most of the best songs on the album. As noted above, for all the shit that he received during the demise of the old band, it's pretty hilarious for Slash to be playing his songs upon rejoining. It must be pretty gratifying in many ways if Paul takes an interest - which I'm sure he will, or at the very least, his accountant!

I'm surprised no one bought it at $500. It may be worth that as trade bait, if anything. I'd watch it as a curiosity, of course.
Just gotta find someone who works at MTV, with the proper access. I believe that is how it got out there to begin with.
Same dude allegedly has/had the full GNR Wembley 91 gig along with other goodies. I believe he has claimed to have lost everything
1 minute ago, ©GnrPersia said:Same here. I'm still chasing hoarders regarding this tape. It would be very nice to see a rehearsal video of that lineup. And it very well can complement the VMA performance video.
Besides there's literally no full proshot footage of any 2002 show except VMAs.
The clips from Tacoma and 2002 American Tour promo showing asian shows makes me crave for more. My ultimate dream is to have a 2002 full proshot concert video. The Leeds screen recording is a proof of how exciting such a content could have been.
Leeds. Fucking Leeds. Phenomenal.
A proshot of MSG 2002 would be fucking unreal.

There was a dude wanting to sell it for $500 in 2014. Last figure I heard was $10,000. At those ridiculous prices it'll unfortunately never see the light of day.

Mental, absolutely mental. What a sickener. 36 years of age. 4 kids. Heartbreaking.

Doesn't sound like the Red Special is on Riad either.
It’s not, it never made the cut. Tommy voices his displeasure at this in an interview he did a couple of years back.

I'll actually laugh my cock off if it's poor after all the hype it's had here and Reddit ,from people who claim it's brilliant, having never heard it..the world of GNR is odd, never have high hopes or expect anything to happen...then anything good is a bonus
We Are The Champions was the B side to We Will Rock You. B sides doesn’t necessarily mean lesser quality.

How true is the rumor that Axl submitted CD2 but it got rejected? If there’s any merit to it then it makes sense why the trilogy plans fell apart, but knowing this band it’s probably just an excuse.
It was brought up to Fernando, either here or on Reddit, and he was nonethewiser. That doesn't mean to say that it didn't happen, but it was alleged to have been handed to the label to coincide with Reading/Leeds but given there was no time for promotion, they declined. Not sure I buy that myself, but that's how the story went.

The album version is one of the many highlights on Chinese and features one of the best solos in GNR's back catalogue. It was practically Axl's solo spot for the first few years of the NITL run - I was unfortunately in attendance in Berlin... it wasn't long til it was dropped entirely after that.
Hearing the remix in full for the first time was incredible. Those vocals are outrageous and it's a pity that something like this isn't available to the public, along with all the other work Axl has created over the past 25 years.

I wonder if we will get a new album in November.
Something tells me they won’t package a full album up anytime soon but I really hope I’m wrong.
I fucking love Atlas, it’d probably be in my top 5 GNR tunes.

One of my favourite songs. I’m all for as many new GNR songs being released as possible.
"General Musings" " Thread for all of "Thoughts On" all GnR things in the universe.

There was amateur footage circulating at the time. Don't Let It Bring You Down duet was tremendous but they were all eradicated not long after, I assume from Neil's camp rather than the GNR fanbase due to the first night being PPV. Axl was evidently ill at the time and that comes across pretty clear. He didn't pull out of the show and performed anyway as to not let down a hero of his and obviously the great cause.
