Something I thought I would never see in my life.

Happy Birthday, Slash!

God! I hate crying in the movie theater. I might have to wait until the blue ray comes out. That way I can sob my heart out in the privacy of my own home.

Glad it's a great movie. Stan Lee would be proud!

Just cry in the theater, everybody will be crying as well.  I went to see this movie on the premiere and I was fighting them tears really hard.  I was tear-eyed.  It's the perfect closure for the 11 year journey.

Part of the journey is the end.  What an end!!!

We made a bet once.

You said: 

If anyone wants to bet that Axl will never release the so-called Chinese Democracy II, I'm taking bets - starting from $1000. Serious people only.

I said:

I'll do it. Now I don't think CD2 will be released in the exact same form as it is now. I believe that some songs may get new solos by Slash or some other new guitarist.... Most likely Slash though. I also believe that they might record some brand new songs for the album. But with 99% certainty I'd say that songs like The General will be released. So yeah, I'm willing to bet S1000, and this is a serious bet.

 

This was before the reunion.

I have sent you a PM regarding the bet.  Thanks for quoting my post as I didn't remember anything about it.

Good to see that your as sceptical as ever. So you haven't backed out of our bet? 

I don't know who you are.

Oh people never learn.  Slash being there to record new music does not mean that they will release those recordings.  It doesn't mean that Axl and Slash will record together either.

Allegedly Axl has recorded hundreds of songs already but he hasn't released them and by the look of it, has no intention in doing so.  Ever.

Fans should know this by now.  A song or songs recorded in 2019 will not see the light of day until 2030 at least, if ever.

At this point, all I want/need is the 91-94 footage of the UYI tour.  That's all.

Don't care about a new album.  Fuck that.

Give me that footage from 1991-1994 NOW!!!

Can't wait for the 4K blu-ray!

It's quite risible that they stated that only a "portion" will go towards charity.

Define "portion."  

Aah, feels so good to not give a fuck anymore.  

I remember when Slash auctioned stuff at Juliens, I bid $5,000 for that Snakepit 'Ain't Life Grand' painting but ended up selling for $8,000.  I really wanted that shit.

Are they still playing 30 Years to Life?  It's such a good song.

There, I summed up all Slash's interviews.  No need to watch any new ones.

Absolutely forgot about this song.  Savage.  Killer solo as always, Slash!

It is horrendous no matter what version.

Happy New Year, everyone!

Of course they'll survive without Slash. They'd just be shit 

Sad but true.

If you think those Chinese Democracy leftovers haven't been tinkered and reworked again and again since they were recorded, you are insane.  It's pretty much guaranteed that those CD leftovers would have featured Bumblefoot, Ashba and Pittman.  I know that version of Axl's band has its followers but I don't think Axl would have been happy with selling a hundred copies worldwide.

I would be interested in listening to the untouched material from 1999-2002 but that's very unlikely.  I really enjoyed the Buckethead + Finck + Brain combo.  But in 2016, I would have taken the reunion over that, no questions asked.

Nah, Slash was still on drugs. Slash needed to be many years sober before a reunion was a possibility.

Why?

Ever since Gn'R broke up Slash has been very active as a musician, releasing new music and touring around the globe with the multiple bands he has founded or joined.

Real Gn'R getting back together or the leftovers of the godawful album Chinese Democracy?  That can't be a real question.

Just found out about this.  Cool little song.  Axl sounds great.

His entire head does not match his body.  Very weird picture.
