My wife has been through the whole Chinese saga w me. I rarely bring anything up anymore unless something has actually happened lol. 

100% me too 😂 Since 2004. I met her in 2005, so at least she had a year off.

I actually love absurd, but wish it had the chorus from silkworms. Maybe someone crafty can get Ai to put it in, utilising the live version and axl's voice on the studio release? 

Horders probably not happy about this haha.

I would say 90% given up, but holding on to that 10% strongly. 

I caved and got 2x ga diamond tickets for gold coast 😂

No free tickets available through my work, so decided to give it a miss unless cheap tickets are available on the day. Not paying $250 unless axl starts releasing music again 😅

I'll be at the first gig on the Gold Coast! I work for Metricon too, so hopefully can nab some good seats at our stadium. 

We've been covid free in qld for a couple of months, its been amazing. The rest of australia is getting that way too. I think the tour will go ahead.

Does anybody have a screenshot or text exhert of what Fernando said? Perhaps put it on the 1st comment for everyone? Having trouble finding it on here and reddit. Thanks!

You must have missed it when I did exactly that. Then when I didn't receive any word back, I immediately started to post saying that it was either a joke or trolling. 

So an attempt was made to stop it within minutes. However, many users chose to ignore those posts and convince themselves it was fact. 

Sorry, I must have missed that. There were a lot of posts to go through. I noticed the latter posts regarding trolling and you refreshing music streaming services at midnight and assumed were you on the fence still.

I agree, should have asked for verification from him straight away and report back to everyone. Could have been stopped in 5 minutes instead of going on for a few days.

Also, and not sure if you're already doing this, but impose strict penalties for anyone who does this.

I know Sofine11 is a regular at the forums, but it doesnt seem legit to me. Cant he run a screenshot of the conversation past Russ for him to confirm the legitimacy?

It's in the Covid thread somewhere. 

Oh thanks, I'll take a look!

I cant seem to find the post where Sofine11 says the there will be a release tomorrow? Besides his hopeful "suprise announcement?"

What a fantastic person! Having a rough year and this is what got me through.

Whoever he is, he has a huge heart and the kindess and care I wish so many more people had. Honestly inspirational what he has done for the whole GNR fanbase!!

Chairman, you are a legend around here. Thank you so much

This is kind of funny, reading it 9 years later (almost to the day!)

 

That is the funniest!!!!

Yep, these mixes are INCREDIBLE!! especially IRS and Catcher.

Can someone summarise the story here though.

Is there more to come?

Has someone been leaking these all night? 

Or did they qll leak together?

Thanks!! And what an awesome suprise!!

Wooooo!!!! Wow!! So amazing to hear this song and piece of 2000 GNR!! I think it's so unreal to think about the history and where Axl was in his life when this song was recorded.

Thanks to whomever released this! 😊😁

I echo the thoughts of it being incomplete, but saying that, it's a great track and Axl does an epic job!! Would have potential to be an absolutely amazing song with slash and duff!

Here's hoping for Atlas soon!

Jeff for VR!! That would be Epic although I doubt STP would be OK with that 😑 

Also, almost joining Alice in chains? Now that would have been Interesting...

Release it in November on the same day as Shenmue III

Then release it exclusively on the epic store 🤣.

I cant wait for shenmue 3 though, backed it for $600 on the kickstarter.

...oh yeah, I guess i'm looking forward to GNR plans too, but any new album they make will probably just sit in the vault anyways 😜

THE Fernando is called @Fernando on this forum

Ohh ok, good to know. Thanks

Axlrosefan4life and fernandoGNR were both just viewing this thread a second ago...hopefully we get some kind of heads up on whether something will happen or not. At this point i dont mind either way, i just wanna know if i should keep checking here or not lol.

My guess would be: I'm certain ARF4L intended to share with everyone but most likely was contacted by Lawyers to cease any such action.

I've spoken to him before (over messages) and he's a genuinely real good guy. I would prefer he didn't share these files if it meant getting in trouble financially, as much as I'd love to hear the files as well.

Hopefully when things calm down he's able to give us all an update and perhaps some descriptions of what he has heard.

Also I assume the guy that sold the cds made digital copies as well, so it' possible we will still get to hear stuff one day. And hopefully the general too.

I told my girlfriend what was going on, and she just basically went “that’s nice, dear.” 😂

My girlfriend loves chinese democracy, but still doesnt seem interested in the leaks at all...i feel so nerdy trying to explain how amazing this whole thing is to her 😂

... was just online here a few seconds ago......good to know he's going well enough to log on here.

Edit: i mean his display name popped up in the 'users online' just then.
