GnR's FB mentions 'surprises' at the latest show. Like what?

Green confetti instead of red.

Would rather have it be called (been called) "Intensions". I feel like including years in a title of anything (besides the book 1984) is a little gimmicky and lame

Dyschronometria

Yell out songs they haven't played live since UYI tour. Like Breakdown

Guns N' Roses:

A Lying Appetite for Incidentally Saucy, Destructive, Democratic Illusions

Original pic is of Axl and Bono

I remember reading some article where slash said he wanted VR to be GNR. But since I can't find it right now, consider this a false statement.

I think Matt would be fine instead of Steven. His drumming on Sympathy for the Devil is killer!

I usually listen to it as cruising music. I really like his latest single "Upside"

Its a great track for sure. Love Axl's vocals in it and the guitars+orchestra

Just saw this advert on TV (KTLA 5)

I dislike that solo projects come out from the members because on the off chance that Axl wants to release an album, some of the potential hits that might have been have already been out. Its understandable that they want to but it irks me.

"Fuckin' Crazy"

Multiple (5ish?) takes. Did 1 take then corrected a few screw ups in lyrics and screaming.

Oh and this is pretty much me trying and wanting to sing like axl

I always thought TIL would sound better by a bit if it didn't have the layered chorus. It definitely works but I always wondered how it would sound with a single vocal track. On the multi track for it, you can hear a clean axl on top, but also a mix of clean and (tastefully) raspy axl under it ( mostly on the last chorus).

Same goes with the breakdown of Better. Wish it would just be one track of his scream (like live versions)

I thought 2010s rasp wasn't smartly added, just slopped onto the songs that didn't really need it. The live TIL rasp was great. SCOM didn't need it in my opinion. He should've used his chest voice for that (if he still was able to instead of his falsetto rasp). Only the last screaming parts needed it. (Like the 99' SCOM).

On songs like CITR, TWAT, Jackie Chan clip, Prostitute.

I really like the Jackie Chan clip's clean voice. On TWAT, I have to rewind two places because they're my favorite. The first verse and the part where he sings "on a pedestal or bed, and now...".

...can we get an Evader version of CD to make it sound like the 01 - 02 version?

This is what I came up with in 10 minutes

3:12 minute rocker

I like the antiquiet version without axl's overdub or franks stuff. Can't notice bumbles contributions apart from the verse which I'm fine with

It doesn't sound good live because he never done the way how it is on the album. He always sings the note too short.

"Gon finda fahysolf"

And he doesn't sing the last word angrily.

("out of time")

Plot twist: he powerfully belts out every note and DJ doesn't fuckup any solos

You have another album worth of killer tracks? Cool. Put em' out dude. Move the band forward. This isn't rocket science....

Is that easy, no? But honestly, those *supposedly* killer tracks were written by people that are no longer in the band. Don't you think the new guys (sans Ashba) deserve their moment to shine? If your answer is yes, then the new question should be: Why the fuck is not happening?

i honestly have to wonder whether they have any label support at this point. are they even still contracted to universal? if axl is the one footing the recording bills, that would explain why they haven't been in a studio together.

They aren't listed on interscope's or umg's site if that helps

If it's of any significance, Interscope's and UMG's websites don't have GNR listed under their artists. (Unless I managed to pass over it)

Maybe Axl buckles at televised things (as stupid as it may sound). At the 92 VMAs, he started singing to early at the end of NR; No explanation for VMA 02; Rock am Ring 06 he forgot to sing the first "my serpentine" part in jungle and messed up the lyrics to Patience and started over; Rock in rio 2011 he forgot the words to TIL and i think Patience; and now he "forgets" the words to TIL. Just conjecture. Then again, maybe he did purposely skip the verse at Golden Gods

Where did the snippet of blood in the water come from?

In the Golden Gods performance, I was under the impression that Fortus was the new main guitarist of gnr. He had more screen time and when BBF was soloing, the spotlight wasn't being shone on him. And axl did introduce him 3 times or so

Well, all I can say is if there's nothing I can gain from this, or anything at all it'd be the lies that you gave me when I thought I'd heard it all.
