starting to wonder if all this stuff is being leaked intentionally to create hype for the box set

Would much rather hear brand new  material instead of studio versions of all these songs that we’ve already heard thousands of times. 

I have zero interest in hearing a slightly altered version of a song that’s been around for 20 years. 

especially a 20 year old slightly altered song that wasnt very good to begin with

oh my god has a strong advantage over the solo album because mickey wasnt born in 1999

ok fine. omg is just a tad better than riad but thats about it

i know we're all dying for new material but those are literally the two worst songs in gnr's catalog after my world. tbh im not even interested in the least bit but thats just me

axl did an ok job on slither. its just a mediocre song to begin with

slither is a very average song imo. comperable to black hole sun and i think itll fit in just fine right before coma. itll be a welcome addition for ppl who were big VR fans but im kinda dissapointed... would make it a lot more interesting if matt stepped in on drums tho

this is fucking great. more stoked about this than the box set. the manager saying "something" has me more pumped than pretty much anything after slash saying him and axl were talking again. that and the fact that there will be more tours.

if i had to ask one question only it would be about the 2010 show i was at in montreal when axl said something along the lines of "you guys deserve to know the truth but tonight is not the night". obviously its axls story to tell so i dont expect a huge bomb to be dropped here today by fernando cuz its not really his bomb to drop but if it was nothing can you at least let me know? ive been wondering about this for 8 years... if it was something can you remind axl about this little cock tease next time youre in town ? 

and speaking of cock tease... please bring back those strippers lol

2001. no slash but hey mr. security man... that axl is gone !

I have never had a problem people speaking their mind. Too much of this censorial bollocks seems to surround Guns N' Roses. I loved the period from the first Snakepit to Velvet Revolver when Slash used to slag off Rose. 

yup. adler seems to be the only one acting like an actual gnr member. well the gnr i fell in love with anyways. you know the guys that werent afraid to speak their mind and go off on someone whenever they saw fit. cock rock or not i miss that side of the band. fuck contacting fernando on instagram or twitter, i dont mess with that shit, he shoulda shared the dudes number so we can all give him a fucking call

what else do you get in the 999$ version vs the 179$ version besides the vinyls, lapel pins, rings, guitar picks, bandana a few exrra posters/flyers, buttons, patches, a fucking coin and the actual box? did i miss anything?

i guess the usb stick seems kinda cool but ill make one myself when this shit hits the shelves... i certainly dont see why anyone other than collectors would splurge on the big box and the more and more i look at the contents of the second, the more and more im leaning towards keeping my cash. all i really want is the music, which is free... not really looking to spend 200$ to make my jean jacket look cool

anyone whos offended by this song should get over their sensitive ass self

i really hope we get to hear axls version of why he doesnt just put his music out there. if hes not "working on all that stuff to keep it burried" then whats the deal? by waiting so long between releases it ups the pressure to release something good. if he just threw out every little garbage idea, people would remember the good ones along the way and gnrs discography would look a little something like metallicas... does axl see that as such a bad thing?

shoulda been included in the boxset

It is a good song, just like it was a good song when I first heard it in the late 1980s. 

What is going on with the video? The skeleton doesn't move. He is just in the scene like a shop window dummy. 

i think thats the animations they were talking about for the bluray

im just gonna download the music for free and save my money for the next tour lol temporary tattoos? fuck i can get two full sleeves for that price

so what happens at midnight? we find out what we already know?

No they didn't, they made it all back (and more) with the BestBuy deal. Then they made a profit from the worldwide sales too. Universal lost nothing, they made money off of Chinese Democracy, plus, they have the rights to whatever else the band recorded during that timeframe.

youre right but i still dont see them spending that much on these billboards just for a boxset that hardly anyone outside this forum will buy... and forget about the boxset, i dont know one casual fan that would buy shadow of your love off of itunes as a single track

Just now, Spirit said:

Did they though?

I think Best Buy lost that one.

well they certainly didnt make much and i doubt bestbuy will rescue them this time

This is Guns N' Roses. I absolutely believe they would put billboards and posters up worldwide for a boxset (and leaving it at that)

If it's something more than that I'll eat my hat 

yeah but universal already lost money when CD flopped. i doubt a label would do something that dumb again

Just now, ludurigan said:

not even on their PC desktops? do people still have desktops?

i know i dont lol idk maybe ppl will buy it for the blurays 

i still do not beleive they would put billboards and posters up worldwide for a fucking boxset. im not saying there wont be a boxset but that cant be all there is to it

great find, thanks!

but shit, vynil?

hopefull they release an alternate box with the exact same content on CDs for those who havent touched a vynil disc in 30 years hahahaha

about the "early years shows", hopefull its is uncirculated (i.e. not the ritz) and untouched (not re-recorded)!

not to mention that most people dont even own a cd player anymore lol

It might have been the band soundchecking a new song for Slash's son's band. I can't remember, tho

yeah i vaguely remember someone mentionning slashs son but i dont think we ever found out exactly what it was all about and the rumor just all of a sudden died. just figured id bring it up cuz ppl are saying theres nothing pointing to new music. that little incident may end up actually being something

they added new posters/billboards since last night i think. last night the closest one to me was over 6km away, today theres one under 5kms away

 There is ZERO indication new music may be on the way. 

what about that video someone took from outside soundcheck at one of the shows with supposed audio of a new song being rehearsed, and those meegan tweets shortly after? did anyone ever get to the bottom of that?
