It's funny, because people talk about "How could they do this to us, their loyal fans?" in a thread that has about 50% of its post either bashing the band, amateur psychological evaluations, fictional ramblings and speculations about the hierarchy of the band these days, and generally butthurt, tear filled rants about what we are "owed."

 

I can't imagine why millionaires aren't bending over backward to please the self-important forum members making demands.  Surely, every single person bashing the band loves to be called a cunt in their real lives, and bends over backwards for people who call them a cunt and make demands.

Surely.   

Some of it is genuine annoyance that the organisation, in comparison to other bands, can't find ways to do seemingly simple things that make the fans happy (which they're not entitled to, I agree) but also makes shit tons of moneys for the band. It's also after endless talk for how many years about all the songs Axl was working on. The longest, slowest jerkoff imaginable.

81 pages in and still not one complete song has leaked. What a waste of time....

I'll give it a week or so altogether. Still hoping it all comes out asap though.

If nothing else comes out, I'd at least like to see the full track listings for each CD

+1

Was The General ever mentioned in all this supposed 'motherload'? I wouldn't be complaining if it all leaked without The General but it's probably still the No.1 anticipated 'mythical' song so needs to come out as well .

We should just shut up and let it go...

If nothing else leaked now it'd be the biggest goddamn blue-baller. For me at least, this is infinitely more interesting and exciting than NITL/reunion so far as they spectacularly missed the opportunity to come back with new/ish music and there's still no real sign of them properly having interest in it.

i don't believe that this will work properly. but i do hope, it will... without any major buzz. passing around some links... 

I can't think of any other way it could be done tbh. The guy trying to get the material in the first place should've said nothing about it and leaked it this way without saying anything. If in doubt, think of Skewrl.

One of them has previous.

Wait, is MSL trying to get involved?

Some of the people who have wormed their way in have no intention of anything good in regards to letting anyone else hear anything.

I'll bet some of them might be trying to tattle to TB for something in return. Hopefully the rest of them just start a take-one-pass-it-on process sending the material to other people privately. 

If the material now sits in several hands, then surely the next step is to privately sideways-share across other members gradually.

Anyone else finding it hard to really get enthused by any of this?

its not like the CD leaks of 06, where you were hearing the new shit Axl was working on and wondering when it was going to be released and if he was going to add it to the setlists. This is outtakes from 13+yrs ago, which Axl has likely abandoned. Hardly new GNR album levels of excitement, surely?

Agree, it's more about laying Ghosts to rest regarding our collective interests in the unheard mythical stuff. And the added bonus of hearing song titles for the first time that have been unknown until now. 

If you're worried about dark energy being attached to works of art then you may as well throw out most of it. 

How many albums broke up bands? How many actors died during or just after their movie came out? How many authors were completely fucked up as they finished latterly celebrated works? 

I'm not bashing you or the experiment, but honestly there's gonna be a lost of that kind of energy around most of these things. 

Ideally I want the AFD 5 to be back in action, with rediscovered chemistry and putting together a hybrid CD2/fresh stuff album. And doing arenas, not stadia. 

It's gotten to the point where I'd be genuinely surprised if there was a new record. I get this impression that none of the trio are genuinely interested in one and that relations aren't completely rosy regarding actually getting in a room and putting stuff together. I badly want to be proved wrong however, but am putting more stock in leaks. 

"he's very knowledgable about guitar techniques and all kinds of shit guitar" had to read that twice 

General and Atlas leak so a large portion of us can finally stop caring. 

Unless they do a proper UK arena tour, in which case I'd pop down. Probably too much effort for too little $ though, hence the stadiums. 

Figuring out how to leak CD2 to shut us up so he can just tour NITL on/off then retire from singing and do solo piano/movie music

lol I couldn't clean up the cell clip with audacity. I'm wafflehead with audacity lol maybe somebody can do it!

I heard there's 2 clips. I'm interested in the original cell clip getting cleaned up as is. That hasn't been done yet. In the cell clip it's 2 minutes of The General.

The 'invert' option helps a very little bit if you then listen with headphones

Never thought the/a reunion would be this depressing. I can't think of anything that disproves it as a cashgrab and nothing more. It's been TWO YEARS since Coachella, I was really hoping they could just paste Slash and Duff over CD2 songs and see if they come up with anything else 100% new and chuck out a new album but there's no real feeling that any of them give a single shiny shit about it. 

THerefore I hope Atlas and General leak so I can just stop caring. 

Alexa, download this bloody thing whenever it leaks. 

Can we please speed up time until it leaks, I just wanna hear this and Atlas then I can finally stop caring.

I can't understand wanting to hear it so bad that you listeb to fanmade things.

I go from the demo to the live version. Back and forth, lol.

Do you remember the days when people tried to make fan remasters of live versions Silkworms and Rhyadh? It was interesting hearing people's takes on it and like I said, Evader's Silkworms is really cool. 

Can someone edit the chorus from the Evader mix into the leak? Where he made Axl sing "What can I do with a bitch like you" using existing vocals. It was fucking mint. 

Fucking glossy arsepaper. 

If General, Atlas, Silkworms etc had leaked in some form there'd be less appetite for CD2 material. Hoarders, for the love of god do something

Still big-capacity-big-bucks shows. Tempted by Download Festival (UK) but only if there's other bands on the day justifying the cost (there won't be). Otherwise, seen Axl thrice and seen Duff singing ISE so if they're not gonna do proper UK dates then fuck it. 

Loved the song back in the day, wouldn't mind a chance to hear this. 

Maybe about 3 songs will be interchangeable, considering the lights and screens all have to be in sync and whatever.
