     He mentioned almost a decade ago CD2 had been done for a while, and even if you include OMG and Going Down, I doubt the album was only 8 songs. Hopefully most of the CD songs are eventually released on a box set without Slash and Duff...

    Wow, this would be heaven. Would definitely pay good money for CD boxset w/out slash + Duff. But will most likely never happen during Axls lifetime.

    New Perhaps at the soundcheck sounds cool actually. Pretty similar apart from Slash's little riff at the end of each bar. 

    Wonder if we'll get a 'drum arrangement by Josh Freese' credit haha. 

    Solo isn't as good as Robins though, sadly. 

    I like Perhaps, it's a great short and sweet poppy glam number. 

    Big fan of Perhaps.  Hope the eventual song releases aren't brickwalled to hell as A & HS are, but why would they be any different, one can but hope.

    It's gotta be said, IM are the original band with taylored tour shirts to the country they are visiting. Some of there OZ tour shirts are friggin awesome 

    Has anyone done the Spotify thing where they see if a new song registers?

    The Darkness are still a decent draw in the rock scene. mostly for permission to land nostalgia but their new albums do chart quite high. they drew a big crowd at download, they wouldnt sell out arenas here anymore, but the level below that they tour at. Justin Hawkins always speaks highly of axl and gnr on his youtube show, so think they are alright 

    That's cool, always loved TD after one way ticket album. Glad they're still getting reasonable crowds. They're definitely a talent to recon with.

    Meet JH at one of their meet & greet shows. I was wearing my fav gnr CD shirt and asked him about gnr in an overly excited manor, to which he replied to the effect of, "you know they're just human right" then walked off. Previous to this exchange, he signed a JH photo to me with the caption, "to NZs ONLY Hot Leg fan" lol.

    First batch of opening acts are out: Guns N'Roses at BST Hyde Park: The Pretenders, The Darkness and Larking Poe join as special guests, plus more TBA

    I thought gnr and the Darkness had a previous misunderstanding which would render them not opening for them anymore? Sweet as. 

    Ps, how big are the darkness in the UK these days?

    They should gift the Scottish fans with the first play of a new track 

    Brilliant idea. Hope it happens, would be poetic if it does.

    AM has 46M monthly listeners on Spotify vs GN’R’s 28M

    Wow, wow wow, I would not have known how big AM, or relevant they were had that state not been posted.

    Or is it that the young are using Spotify more, and there taste, hence streaming, and the dad rock listners listen to cds/mp3s. Playing devil's advocate here.

    I knew AM had some good songs, but didn't think they were that popular. Wow. And or, I know gnr are now legacy act, but are they becoming irrelevant w/ no new music?

    For real. This board used to… have a higher overall IQ… that’s one way to put it. 90% of posters I see now seem to be complete suckers.. no surprise that the longtime posters that actually know how this ‘organization’ operates are MIA. GNR have that effect on their fans. Can only take the frustration and ongoing joke for so long. 

    Welcome bak genius
