You make a fair point, but only as applied to hobbyists. The unfortunate reality is that this tool, like all other technological developments, will in fact be used by the ownership class to hold even more power over the rest of us. It's hard enough as it is to make a career in the arts. Now corporations can have art custom made on demand for a tiny fraction of what it costs to employ a human being.

Neither do humans. Every word has been written before, every note and chord has been played before. Civil War is far from the first song with a G-B-E chord progression.

I disagree as everything once was created before. And when you're cooking and you use a combination of ingredients that have never been used all together you actually create a new recipe

Lol. I suspect if that's your hope you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Of course I'd love to be proven wrong. 

It's more wishful thinking than hope, I don't expect anything but it's fun to use your fantasy sometimes.. being a fan for so long does that to people 

Here's an unlikely theory for you regarding the 'something special' The General video will feature a date as a hidden message which will tell the release date of the next album...

MyGNRforum never lets you down! After I saw the announcement I came here to read about the cheap AI, toy truck, lazy ass comments. you guys always write down my thoughts before I can think them, love it!

For many reasons it was the right call, as mentioned by others before. Getting back on top of the rock n roll universe cementing his GOAT frontman status. For us fans and especially those who got to see it live, and for me watching countless YouTube videos its the bomb. It was everyone's dream to ever hear him sing with maximum rasp again, the thing we love most about his voice.

Anyways... while we're here, complaining about bad mixes and MS Paint quality vinyl art, Sebastian Bach has released a single with Todd Kerns on bass and a complete video:

How is it possible that Bach can pull this off, but a huge band as GnR can't?

The song's fine as well. Sure, it's a bit tacky, but still brought a smile on my face.

I listened to the song as well, it's pretty good.

Well...

Which one then? It can't be both haha

I've heard had it since it was released in NZ via a vpn, like a lot have...seems like of u like it, it's different to the leak...if you think it's crap, the leak was final 

I like it, there's an improvement from my point of view from the leak 

Haha sorry for the confusion, i think the official release has the guitar parts a slight louder in the mix, but yeah I like it too! 

The General is finally out in Europe now!! It does sound pretty much the same as the leak, tho i think the guitars are louder in the mix 

I am rewatching the full show at this moment, god it was so good, I love how during the time everyone on here was crazy about it during the stream, good times! It was a feeling of victory for all of us haha

Hmmmm. That's difficult. I've seen them in 2009 on the Black Ice tour (still with Malcolm) and again in 2015 on the Rock Or Bust tour (still with Brian, shortly before Axl/DC). They were absolutely amazing both times and I had a really great time. Later on I saw Angus guest on a 2017 GnR show and again he lit an absolute fire under the entire gig. And now I'm just a little bit worried that seeing them again will never be able to live up to those other gigs. So if they tour it'll be a difficult decision for me whether I'd go. 

Understandable dilemma, maybe in your case you should keep the memory as nice as it is! S

There are several reasons to believe AC/DC will your in 2024. In this link (Dutch language) https://festileaks.com/2023/11/burgemeester-van-munchen-verklapt-concert-ac-dc-in-juni-2024/ you can read that they will play Munich according to the Major of the city. 

For me ACCA Dacca are the last band on my must see/favorite list so I am definitely going when they come around to complete a life goal! Any other enthusiasts who can't wait to see them live for the first or the 100th time?

KISS has condoms. Never heard of any other band. lol

I do like the shirts. The other stuff was too much money. If I did buy the pants I would wear them around the house only.

when I last saw KISS they had an awesome jacket. It was like a stadium jacket and it was only $200 which I didn't think was bad. A lot of KISS fans bought it.

Cool, I like it when bands have that kind of merch. I like Kiss and saw them in 2022 as well, great show Gene brought his A game. But not big enough a fan to buy merch haha

They had these cool leather jackets some years ago, got one of those but besides that everything is poor design on the webshop

That's how most big bands operate. In the US they use the buses to travel from city to city. I worked a ZZ Top show once (about 5 or 6 years ago) and Billy, Dusty, and Frank each had their own bus.

Yeah, old men needing their privacy all sobered up now lol, no more drinking and snorting on the bus together

2017 for example. When i get chance ill look through things a bit. I want to see if she is listed as freelance anywhere

We already knew this but it's kinda diva to have your own bus driver as slash duff Axl, and then for the rest band driver. Usually they just go into these mercedes vans from hotel to gig

They'll have to delay the general now. This will take up 3-5 years at least sorting this. Axl couldn't have asked for something this perfect to fall into his lap and give him more excuses to not release

Haha you bastard! It's funny, being a fan long enough makes you think the way the lead singer does

If this comes down too, Axl either fire him or Slash and Duff leave…the ride is over, everyone. And what a sad, unsatisfying ending everyone would get after spending all these years following and supporting. And with the reunion and Axl/DC, he’d finally created a happy ending for himself. If he doesn’t act appropriately here, that’s all gonna be stained. I’m not sure some of us here understand how f’d this is, and how much of the band’s future it puts into jeopardy. 

Oh I am more than aware and I really agree with what you say. I'm biting my nails over this. I mean besides all the terrible things Kat had to endure if true, I am worried about the future of my favorite band! I hope the people who are the band will stand as one and make the right decisions.

What is all this crazy shit? Fernando really fucked up didn't he? Horrible...

1. Kat is the best photographer they have ever had and she seems really passionate about her work. So fucking up with someone that good is plain stupid.

2. Fernando neglected his task as a manager when it comes to professionalism. And this is not the only time.

3. Fernando just wronged Kat from human to human in so many ways. It's ugly.

4. Beta and maybe others who knew, actually leaned with Fernando and did absolutely nothing? 

I already had strong doubts about TB in general but also about How they run this band. But now I've lost all the respect I've had for them.

think its still about child abuse and vulnerability. the axl scream bit is obviously his comeback to his stepfather as are the choruses. The verses are a bit harder coz they could seem to be about a lover, but again i think they could be relating to child abuse and rape. 

One thing I don't get, if this song is what we knew as 'Soul Monster' Or 'Monstrocity' why change it to Monsters? Those other two are such better names for songs. Monsters is a bit lame in comparison, especially for such a heavy song

I think he chose Monsters as he felt all the wrong doings to him felt like being chased by monsters?

At this point, I feel as this is the natural state of these forums. In a few weeks we'll be having heated debates about the smallest things like Slash's new tattoo and Fernando's Land Rover. 

Don't forget Axl's clothes hair and his weight.
