Is the official website down? I can't get on it.

the sexual allegations 

I meant before them..

Axl had three huge managers before team Brazil…things were considerably worse. 

It’s all just a bit sad really. She was part of the fabric for so long and seemed very close to lots of the GN’R camp. 
 

I don’t really understand the hatred for Fernando. I’m not sure any of our grievances as fans truly lie at his feet.

He’s got a wife and kids hasn’t he? Just all very messy..

Am I reading the rolling stone article correctly that Kat’s claims came in response to an initial claim made by GN’R?  

Is there two versions leaked? A demo & a more finished sounding version?

I mean they are my favourite band..and monsters might just be one my favourite songs. It’s f’n brilliant. 

I find it odd the preferred option if you didn’t pick an option on whether to keep the order was to cancel the order. 
 

Given they can’t get this one out I don’t hold any hope in seeing Atlas Shrugged this year.

Wow..he’s certainly found his way of doing that one. Excellent. 

What’s the latest thoughts on this?

Are we getting it?

James Hetfield was watching as well. I spent lots of show watching him air drum along.

I wonder what the weight on his shoulders must feel like, being a touring drummer.

I’m sure he’s happy. Great gig being the drummer for one of the biggest touring rock acts. His wife looks nice. He’s winning at life if you ask me.

Not as I'm willing to compare these two.. But you think that Estranged is not depressing, for example? Or Sorry...? 

Yes when you consider the releases so farAbsurd, Hardskool..Perhaps is a good gear shift. 
 

Hope next one comes sooner rather than later.

That's what I think too.

Has this been and gone?

It's not the band. The record label are the ones behind this... 

It might be that the band have no interest and this is being done to meet contractual obligations.

This has happened in the past with previous releases including the Greatest Hits and if you connect the dots, the release and lack of interest from the band would suggest Hard Skool was released under the same circumstances. 

I don’t think so. 
I think if anything the box sets and yet more pressings of appetite is for the label. The singles seem more personal to Axl..that seems very evident when he sings absurd live. 
 

Also if you look at the singles HS & Absurd on Spotify they are released c p Guns N’Roses, under exclusive licence to Geffen Records.

Everything else including uyi box set is UMG recordings, inc.

I’m not an expert but I think that indicates GN’R has more control over the singles.

Ah apologies I was wrong. I thought I woke up to it being released.

It debuted at Fenway (2nd show of the tour), however it was originally supposed to be debuted at the first show (Hershey).

It was released after the second time it was played live at MetLife.

 

No it was definitely released the day it first got played.

edit - I’m wrong 🤣

Metallica released their first single from 72 seasons on a Monday…so I guess it doesn’t have to be a Friday. 

Seems like Axl is still in london as his trainer still is. 

Who's keeping an eye on spotify in Australia?

I also attended both the Bucharest and the Hyde Park show. I thought Bucharest was a better performance - do you agree?

The sound was a lot better in London and Axl, I thought, was higher in the mix there, but that does them no favours!

I thought they both were good. Hyde Park was an epic stage etc..think Axl was possibly a bit better vocally.

Didn't do.the song he should have thought! Better ! He should have told Ax, I'm doing that amazing solo I wrote! No questions

It was better he did with them wasn’t it?

Yes- I expect 2024 to be quiet. 
AC/DC will no doubt be the big ticket.

Tommy told Brando on his most recent appearance on his podcast, though I'd doubt it'd be about business. Who knows though? Freese had his lawyer contact him shortly after Hard Skool was released to ask if he had any involvement, to which he didn't think he did as it was so long ago. I'm pretty sure he ended up on the credits in the end.

Well if you listen to it it certainly didn’t sound like they were ordinarily on texting terms so I’d say likely it was business. 
 

Didn’t pitmen dig in for money owed? He’ll want credits no doubt.

Maybe it is legal wranglings? Trying to argue that former members aren't entitled to revenues or something. 

I’ve thought this for awhile & the fact Duff has made contact with Tommy Stinson seems to back it up. 
 

But only an educated guess. 

It’s a Thursday….

fingers crossed tonight is the night for perhaps
