Same here, but I don't have those items with me regularly in public. Songs just missing from albums shouldn't be allowed on a streaming service. If you ask me, you should have to have the whole album or not at all. 

Agree, and some albums such as Pink Floyd’s almost demand to be listened to all at once...it’d be a crime to have one missing Another Brick in the Wall for example, it’s a destruction of the art.

It most likely is the last. SMKC will be touring in the fall and are touring until 2020. 

Doesn’t seem like there are any. Think of your indefinite breaks as the likes of ‘93, ‘02-‘06, and post ‘14. 

If y’all think the fan base is dead now lol

The thing that strikes me as bizarre with this Axl/DC stuff is that I was always under the impression that the big musical difference between Axl and Slash was that Axl DID NOT want to record AC/DC style rock music.

it always seemed like Slash was the one who wanted to do simple, classic rock music and Axl obviously went with the CD-style stuff. 

So now, if true, Axl is leaving his own band to the side to record the type of music that he did not want to do and that was part of the reason for his own band’s breakup???? It doesn’t make sense to me...

I think the issue is Axl thinks Guns music has evolved. He views doing an appetite-style record as a step back after both the Illusions and Chinese in which each one were more progressive than the last. Ac/Dc has never really evolved musically and therefore a typical rock album fits in there in the eyes of Axl.

Number of albums released since UYI:

Izzy - eleven

Axl -  one

This roast was absolutely brilliant.

Coma needs a break in my opinion. I’d rather hear Locomotive or Breakdown. 

Especially Breakdown. Or I will Breakdown.

Well, I’m sure glad he isn’t the leader in Guns. I have a newfound respect for Axl now..

I agree with this statement except I'd add "...except for an AC/DC album"

Really? I’m super excited for Axl’s AC/DC album. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion of course but what’s your reasoning?

Ah. Everytime this gets discussed on this forum I never really know who's position I take. Quite often I seem to get shit from both sides .

It's a lose-lose situation. On one hand, Steven was the original drummer. The songs, with an almost unanimous opinion among Guns fans, sound better with him on them in comparison to Frank. I get it. In a perfect world, he should be up there.

But this isn't a perfect world. Adler is a liability and as much I wish he could part of it, I understand logistically why he can't. Before I get any angry replies, this is not hate. It is a pure fact that Steven would have brought some level of drama to this tour. Look how many times a year in '16, '17, and '18 he complained in some form or fashion about the current Guns lineup. These articles pop up every few weeks. This is not the type of tour that needs drama surrounding it. Unfortunately, the Guns situation since 1997 is "you either agree with it and deal or your you cannot be in the band." 

Not only that but Frank, as much as I don't like his sound, is a person who has been in the band for a decade, chosen by Axl (and debatebly Slash and Duff for the purposes of this reunion tour) and has performed on the newest record and live DVD. He is very much a member of this band and it would be unlikely Axl, whom is very loyal to his friends and bandmates, would give him the boot for Adler, who is arguably a major risk and isn't even on the greatest terms with him.

I think they actually made the right decision to give him guest performances here and there (excluding the South America fiasco which was pure mistreatment and I'll easily give the Adler-side that point). It's somewhat of a middle ground.

The big 3, while their main focus may be monetary, know better than any of us unfortunately. They know all the facts and they know Adler a person more than any of us will. It sucks, but it's time to move on and accept it for what it is.

I, for one, wish Axl would release a boxed set of everything the new lineups (including the AFD re-record) recorded. He could call it "This Is How I Spent My Summer Vacation" and only like 10 people would get the reference.

I, for one, wish Axl would release virtually anything at this point. It can be a 30 second song of him covering the Walmart yodeling kid for all I care. Literally anything.

Physical is everything @AxlRoseCDII. I expect you to give it a place of honor on your gaming shelf

I ordered the physical version of Wild Guns reloaded. It costs a dolllar more, but who would have thought I'd be able to buy a "new in box" wild guns on a nintendo console these days, for less than 500 dollars? pretty stoked for that one

Completely agree. I’m a bit of a nut when it comes to physical. If it’s digital, it doesn’t exist to me. I refuse to support digital content as the fun of gaming to me is in part the instructions and the cover art and the experience getting it. I’m a total nerd but that’s how I feel. Therefore since Sonic Mania is finally getting a physical release I can finally play it.

Yeah it's a great game, I really should play it. It's getting extra content too.

Not only is a great game but it’s a quasi-sequel to two of my favorite games of all time, being Sonic and Sonic 2. Those two games are simply perfect for me and I’m so glad we got another classic sonic game.

I’m so fucking happy Sonic Mania is getting a physical release on Switch. 

Like, you have no idea.

None.

Instant GOTY for me

As an avid CD fan, I wouldn’t want Axl to write the lyrics. Again, I love the album but there are some seriously stupid lyrics in parts during that album.

It warms my heart to see both Duff and Slash send him a birthday tweet 

I think the primary issue with TB is they let Axl have full control and tip toe around him and do what he says very carefully.

No new music, radio silence, etc

Not quite, they've had almost as many lineup changes as GnR, but at least it's out in the open and they actually communicate.

Not gonna lie I totally didn’t do my homework and just assumed they were easy

There isn’t any band with such a mystique as Guns. They made it big, were active for about 6 years, and practically vanished. Yet we still know virtually none of the details and still argue about things that broke up the band to this day.

But during the wilderness years, Axl and the other band members promised new music. Alleged stories of 13 million dollar budgets for CD, band members constantly going in and out, Axl being a complete shut in during the late 90’s, and countless rumors about the CD era we still don’t know. Then the 2002 tour happened and people lost their damn minds, and more questions arose, etc.

No other notable band has such a weird history, and thus the people who stuck with the band during these weird years form both bonds with other members and also constantly need forums such as this to discuss any rumors or scraps of new music, since the actual band offers nothing.

A band like RCHP releases new music, tours all the time, has a pretty simple history, therefore the fans don’t really need to communicate since the band actually gives them the information.

Might go to it since I’ll be in the area. Idk tho :s
