There is nothing more amusing than people who know nothing about mixing or producing complaining about things being copied and pasted or things being compressed or drum replacement etc. THE SOLO TO STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN WAS CUT AND PASTED TOGETHER FROM DIFFERENT TAKES. DRUMS HAVE HAD SAMPLE REPLACEMENT/SUPPORT SINCE THE 80'S. Loudness/compression wars started in the late 90's, but really with the advent of the CD. Your favorite records contain all the things you are whining about.

The solo you mentioned doesn't sound like that. Or drums can sound good no matter how sampled and fake they are. It really doesn't matter what is happening behind the scenes, what matters is what you can hear on the finished product.

If the band had more songs in the alt list I would say it’s possible. Think they’d want to promote the album more instead of only throwing in 2 songs. Then again who the fuck knows with this band haha

Well, Axl promoted Chinese by not touring after 2007 and being MIA for over a year.

It's so nice to see 2006 getting so much love - without wanting to be some sort of shitty hipster, I've been saying that '06-'10 GNR was my favourite era for years. Guns N' Roses was a hell of a band in those days. I miss them.

Back then it was an interesting band and more than capable of making great music.

I've never been big fan of Izzy's songs on UYI 1 for example.

I swear i must be The only person who likes silkworms 😂

 

I've always liked it, lyrics are obviously a bit silly but otherwise it works and I honestly don't understand why people hate it. There are many GNR-songs which are worse than Silkworms.

1. Chinese is the best GNR-album.

2. Most of Izzy's songs are pretty boring.

3. I honestly don't care about Izzy and Steven at all even though I love what they did for the band in the past.

Good tune actually. And proves in the studio you can do ANYTHING with vocals as Ozzy has been dodgy live for years but sounds great here. So nothing to worry about for the new GNR material.

IMO Ozzy is doing just fine. Obviously they're tuning down but he definitely doesn't sound as bad as he looks.

 It's someone elses music, so unless the copyright owners give you the go it's violating copyright.

But it's not a real song, nobody has ever released it. I can say that I've created Prom Violence 15 years ago.

Just wondering... if I'd make own version of unreleased song and release it by myself, would I break copyright laws? 

Not only it was pleasant surprise to hear Locomotive but this proves that alt. songs-list isn't just a joke.

It's not played yet but I think it would be pretty hard for Axl. On the other hand, I think it's one of the songs which sounds okay with Mickey. If I could choose I'd like to hear I.R.S which is also yet to be played.

They could atleast change the opener, opening with the same song for 3 years straight wtf

Some small changes for every gig would be very refreshing; rotate WTTJ/Chinese/ISE as openers, swap Better and Black Hole Sun/Wichita together to spread out the covers for example.

I recommend to start from older albums and then just continue to search songs you like. There's so much stuff it's not possible to try to go through all of them.  Giant Robot is probably my favourite.

About the soundboard recording... don’t worry guys. March 2020 will be our revenge. Lollapalooza never fails  

We should be getting 2 or 3 proshots for sure.

We'll get Jungle and PC.

The bigger issue is that Wichita Lineman and Black Hole Sun are still on the set list.

Going bit off-topic but am I the only one who likes Wichita? For me it's one the best songs in the setlist. Don't know why, I just love it.

I believe it's a good thing the removal of the videos.

Simply because it makes the experience of seeing them live at the gig more special.
They are onstage performing for the people who bought a ticket to the show.

We're not entitled to the youtube video so we can post our shitty opinions on Axl's weight, if Melissa should be there or not, or how bad Frank is ...

i'm ok with reading reviews from the people who went to the show
 

It doesn't harm anyone who attended if someone is in home and wants to hear their favourite band to perform. I'm 22 and living in Finland so not everyday I'm able to see their gig and I'm not sure if I'll ever see. If they won't release a new DVD and let me buy it with real money I would be happy to at least be able to check some videos from Youtube.

Just curious, did Van Hagar ever do Jump?

During the 90's they played it almost every night.

-Chinese is their best album. Also it's the only one without fillers.

-Scraped and Riad are very good songs.

I always sing wrong things YCBM, I mean that I sing correct lines but in wrong place. Same happens in November Rain, I always screw it up like Axl did in RIR 2011.

Unless Axl gets his shit together, they should just go home.

Jungle, Sweet Child, Nov Rain, YCBM, Paradise, Better, Civil War, Yesterdays, Coma, TIL all sound terrible vocally.

IMO currently Axl does great job in Better, he uses his clean voice, then deep voice in chorus and some raspy screams.

What about Jackie, The General, and Atlas though??

Only thing I care is Scraped-remix.

I hope they do this for Use Your Illusion, however I expect it to be more expensive, since there's two cds to remaster, plus the demos.

They should do the same for Chinese. You know, some remixes, demos and few acoustic versions. Don't really care' bout The Plague or New Work Tune so I think Chinese-box wouldn't need any unreleased songs either.
