The Real McCoy

And anyone defending Team Brazil in this situation is laughable. 
 

They’ve treated the fan base with nothing but disdain for years. They get no sympathy from me.

okay, let me say something
am I disappointed? A lot, it's ridiculous how hard is it to release something new. But there was nothing officialy scheduled, so we can't say "plans changed". 

 

It’s clear that the song was supposed to be released tomorrow going by the video on the Linkfire page.

I’m far less interested in going now since the band decided not to release “Perhaps” this week. I’m so sick of “plans changing” at every possible turn with this band. 
 

This band never fails to disappoint at every possible opportunity.

Way late on this…you still have it by chance?

11 years later, my dude 😂 it’s lonnnnnnng gone.

With how much Team Brazil hates the fans, I won’t believe this band is actually releasing anything until it’s downloaded and on my phone.

Yes, some of Axl's comments suggest that he always saw Richard as the one to have the "Izzy" role (only as a guitar player/performer, obviously, not as a songwriter), and that had to do even with his physical resemblance with Izzy.

The question is why he wanted two guitar players for the "Slash" role. I think that he hadn't planned it that way originally, but when it happened to be able to have both Robin Finck and Buckethead, he liked the idea of having two lead guitarists, one of whom would be a shredder for the "gimmicky" and "impressive" stuff, so he stuck with it after Buckethead left (although the fact that Bumblefoot was brought in at the last minute might mean that Axl had second thoughts).

Fortus was Axl’s initial pick to replace Finck before he found Buckethead.

I’ll be honest, I don’t really care about the timer if it doesn’t show up again. I think it’s safe to say that it’s coming Friday at this point no matter what. Granted I’ll say 95% just because this band is…this band.

If it’s released on Friday and they don’t play it at the Hershey show…..

Perhaps brings up an official GnR Apple playlist too. My bet is between 10-11 am eastern time a Tweet goes out with a link in a fairly unceremonious fashion. The (magic 8) ball is in Universal’s hands now and not Team Brazil. It should be pretty status quo rollout and lack the fuckery from yesteryear. 
 

Perhaps I’m wrong, but barring some miraculous I wouldn’t get expectations too high. 

Hey hey

So you’re saying that you don’t believe even more? 😂

Perhaps it’s better than the Leaked versions😉

Hey hey 

So I get the world premiere at the Hershey show? Hell yes!

If they have pulled all Perhapses (Perhapsies? Perhapsi?) from Youtube and left other leaks, then I guess the song is coming soon. They obviously don't want those demo versions to get mixed up as the official version when casuals search for it 

Common sense and logic don’t apply to this band.

I remember downloading the first live version of Rhiad after Vegas and the file was called Oklahoma. Don't know about the setlist, but maybe that's what you remember?

I definitely remember reading (years ago, mind you) that “Oklahoma” was on the setlist, but that they played “Riad” instead, for whatever reason.

Can’t really hear Perhaps in those few notes? ‘Perhaps’ I’m wrong though. I also don’t think Dizzy would be brave enough to do that 😅

Hey hey

Axl ran out of creative juice. Happens to most artists as they age. The difference is that most of them continue to churn out stuff that they know is mediocre just to keep their business going.

I doubt he ever did anything else with Quick Song. As far as Berlin goes, he probably did have lyrics, but never got around to recording them (like the Silkworms chorus).

Wasn’t “Oklahoma/Berlin” supposedly on the setlist for the HOB comeback show and replaced with “Riad” at the last minute?

It’s absolutely incredible how this fucking band conjures new ways to be this fucking disappointing. 

And how they treat any rumblings about new music like they’re nuclear secrets and have everything scrubbed form the internet, because God forbid the fans have something to get excited about. 

Team Brazil can kiss my ass. All of the blame for that falls on them. 

I’ve lost faith in these two songs dropping. The fact that they stopped soundchecking Perhaps is a terrible sign. 
 

I guess “plans changed” again. 
 

I really do hate being a fan of this band. 
 

Make it make sense. 
 

At this point, the hoarders need to leak the rest of whatever is out there, because it’s the only way that we’re going to get anything “new.”

I’d be more than happy to be wrong about all of this, for the record.

I'm still yet to hear anything Carrie Underwood has sung and I clearly don't even have the motivation to type her name into YouTube and change that situation. 

Fuck all chance she's running her own social media pages though, let alone passing messages on.

Gnr fans are the best and the worst 😅

The song is coming, possibly more.

Album is being worked on, and the way Mayhue talked about it this is much more than Slash wishful thinking

First time?

I really hate being a fan of this band sometimes.
