The Real McCoy

All of this looks like placeholder text to me for the time being. It’s too random for it to be a “final” version of the site.

GNR will not open for another band! Its not 1988. 

 

They were going to open two shows for The Rolling Stones in 2006, but they were canceled after Keith fell out of the coconut tree.

So, presumably Atlas Shrugged/Monsters is next? 

I met Phil a few years ago after a very small gig that they played right before he and Tracii buried the hatchet.

Super cool guy. Stayed after and took pics and signed autographs for anyone that wanted one. 
 

The first 4 LA Guns albums (plus the Cuts EP) are untouchable. 
 

I freaking love “Hollywood Vampires.”

Isn’t that Lenny Kravitz playing the other guitar in the video?

I Imagine it would be:

All of AFD

Patience

UTLH

Reckless Life/Shadow Of Your Love/Whole Lotta Rosie

KOHD

YCBM

NR

Don’t Cry 

Civil War

Attitude/New Rose for Duff’s spot

Dust N’ Bones/14 Years for Izzy’s spot

And dumbass Fernando didn’t help matters any, even though he did drop us a hint when he said “The General is a MONSTER!”

He didn't play on Hard Skool, that was Brain.

The only reason Frank hasn't played on any of the new singles is because they just had Slash, Duff, Richard, and Melissa work with completed parts (likely during lockdown) to get the songs over the line. It makes no sense to spend time and money rerecording the drums when Frank's not a prominent member and the existing tracks would suffice – especially since he likely doesn't have the luxury of a home studio to record drums in

Frank is already a multi-millionaire from being in GNR for 17 years at this point. I’m sure that he could a build a home studio if he wanted to.

I just heard this for the first time the other day. Sounds like Axl, but I’d be shocked to see something “new” from those days pop out of nowhere like this. 

The quality on the live version of Your Looks Are Gone that’s been circulating since the Napster days is so terrible that it’s impossible to tell if it’s Axl or not, but I’d lean no on that one.

The two Kills For Thrills albums (EP and LP) are both really good. I need to dig those out again and give them a listen. 

What in the actual fuck did I just watch?

Last year too, you even GNFNR'd this post:

You're getting old, McCoy 

I’ve been posting here for over 12 years. I’m basically ready for a dirt nap. 😂

I believe Gilby worked on songs for live era or some project like that and Frank at the time was one of those behind the scenes musicians we didn't see on the stage.  They may actually know each other through GNR.

I’d love to see Gilby turn up for a guest appearance or two before the end comes. 

The official GNR social media pages wished Steven a happy birthday…I guess he’s back on good terms with them again?

Better is in drop D.

It’s funny cause it’s obvious TB knows we’ve heard “Monsters,” some still have it, and then we all saw the songwriting credits for “The General AND Monsters,” and yet we’re probably gonna have to wait a year (or even more) for an official release…

Of course, there’s the possibility they can the release altogether, but with the NITL lineup evidently on the track, I doubt they will go that route.

And I’m sure that they hate us even more than they already did for having heard it. 

The leaks were due to their sheer fucking incompetence in the first place.

Easy: fire Team Brazil and get real managers.

I’ve got it, Amazon music app. 

I’m on the desktop site…the album shows up, but there’s no way to actually access the song or buy it.

It’s not up to buy on Amazon. Wtf?

I wonder if it’ll be as compressed/loud on the CD single.

Fernando or Universal (who is actually the distributor)?

Fucknando actually bothered to post about it on Facebook. That alone is a miracle for him. He’s a fucking joke.

It’s a miracle, Fucknando took time away from getting his useless assed sued to actually do his job.

Step 1: do the exact opposite of what Team Brazil does.

That’s it.

Well it almost made it onto Chinese Democracy allegedly, and was in the leaked CD that were the top candidates for release back in 2000, so I'm assuming this is one that Axl wants to get out. 

I don’t think “rough mixes #1” from the Village leaks was the top candidates, but the songs that were the furthest along and basically finished at that point in time.
