The next Holy Grail
AxlRoseCDII replied to jimmyflint1989's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
My personal opinion is that this is the finale of the CD era and possibly the end of new GNR music. At this point, we’ve basically heard CDII. CD (14 tracks) and Atlas, Perhaps, The General, Monster, Hard Skool, Absurd, OMG, Going Down, State of Grace, Nothing, makes 24. In a sense we have CDII. Other oddities like Seven likely exist still, but considering Slash and Richard are talking about a new-new album now, whether it happens or not, the focus is no longer on CDII tracks. I don’t really have faith in the band to make a new album either. We’ve gotten 5 songs from this lineup, 5 more than any of us expected. I think The General and Monsters is a great way to cap off the discography. It feels like the end to me. -
Yeah, fair. Although something like Prostitute would definitely have Melissa parts which they played the other night. I’m curious how easily this guy is able to adapt- are the songs just easy to do, or did he memorize all possible 40+ songs they could play? Although to be fair, the Melissa heavy songs probably only boils down to <10.

Does Melissa’s tech guy just know all the songs? Does he has a teleprompter of sorts? How does he know how to play the set and deep cuts they haven’t played in years like Yesterdays?

For anyone who likes full albums, you know how having a sense of cohesion is. Since we’re getting a bunch of singles along with leaks, a lot of us are compiling our own CDII collection. I’m trying to order mine and wanted to see other opinions. 1.) Hard Skool 2.) ABSURD 3.) Perhaps 4.) Atlas Shrugged 5.) The General 6.) Monsters 7.) Going Down 8.) OMG 9.) State of Grace 10.) Nothing I think Hard Skool works as the best opener, being a commercial song with a ISE like bass start. Nothing works as the closer due to the mellow elevator like music.
