Amazing, can you post a screen shot please?

Thanks! What's the source of that image? Or more specifically, why should I be 100% certain that isn't just a fan made thing?

Probably go with the latter. All that was said was that it was buried on an old website but Shackler may be able to expand further if he remembers 

For those that didn't see the scan - Most likely fake:

but not enough of the Gn'R fanbase seems to have warmed up to that lineup imo, which I love. I think a Gn'R without Slash was never going to be accepted and that lineup never had a chance to really take off under the Gn'R name. Slash was too much of an integral part maybe, but Axl cherry picked the best of the best to create something special imo.

They could have done similar to Fleetwood Mac and totally reinvented themselves had they released music and pulled more fans on board. It may have been hard to win over the majority of their own fanbase, but had they had a couple of hits at the turn of the millennium then who knows where it may have taken them? Exposure to new ears and a new following. The talent and material was there, but for whatever reason, the timeline wasn't right.

With Bucket, Finck, Brain, they could have dominated the early 2000s rock scene. Such a shame.

Hard to argue with that. So much potential with that lineup of the band.

I'm not saying there wasn't a version of Atlas around then but

 

Where did that scan come from? I've never seen it circulate before.

The black tee with the star and USA flag on front? Axl, bucket, Tobias Finck Pittman and reed in back?

Naa the one with the red star on the left hand side with band members on the back - I think it’s missing Pitman. I had the chance to buy this last year but it was pretty beat up.

This is great. Thank you for this. I have a ton of these. There is a flex fit black hat with the red star and a strap back with yellow letters and red star from that era that I have too. 

No problem! The other shirts that are missing off the top of my head are the other variations of some of them. There was also a hoodie sold too

I made this a while back just for my own reference. I never bothered completing it but it shows the majority of what was available during the initial CD run.

Maybe my memory is distorted (getting old u know..) But they still had some sort of star logo and chinese era graphics up until 2010-11 right?

They were few and far between but there was a couple in amongst utter dross - they were back in full swing with the skulls/old imagery by that point

And generally speaking imo, GNR merch 2002-2010 look way more updated than NITL era lol

2001-06 my friend!

One of my favourites from my collection. It's smart as fuck. A gent from Germany sold me it a few years back for 50 Euros. I've never seen one for sale so it was a steal.

Where do I begin?

Oh wait…he’s done that too 😂

And on a side note, was Going Down "sold back" to Tommy? Is it gone forever? I mean... depending on the credits and all, couldn't it be just given to Duff and re-recorded by the band? 

Tommy said he was going to see about getting it back - Duff would ruin a great song if he went anywhere near it. If anything, Axl should have recorded leads as it would have showcased his range perfectly. Release it as a B side to a single should an album ever appear with Tam on vocals. Axl's backing vocals are fucking obscene. Some of the best he's ever recorded IMO.

Did Slash say exactly how many songs he'd worked on?

4-6 including hardskool and absurd

What Dummy said is his most recent, but he has mentioned dropping singles until there was enough to then release it as a full album. As always, expect nothing!

All of these legacy acts are releasing albums that they created relatively recent prior to the release. The one positive of Axl not putting out music is that he is sat on a load of material from what is arguably his creative pomp where he was attempting to reinvent himself and had a point to prove, and the Village Leaks only solidified my belief that there is more than enough material for another great Guns N’ Roses album.

For anyone with the means and hasn't seen it yet, I see the show has been uploaded onto The Pirate Bay.

RUTracker also.

I've got the audio from this concert good to go, if anyone wishes for it, shoot me a message.

Please delete this post if it breaches any rules etc.

Absolutely solid effort. Great setlist for that crowd too.
