Can't wait to hear it! I still liked Living The Dream even though it wasn't as well-received as previous albums.

What else did they say?

The whole thing was really short. They vaguely mentioned some stuff that happened both on social media and off. It seems Noah was spreading rumors and fans were sending threats. They said there was a lot of miscommunication. They agreed to stop posting negative things about each other and assured everyone that they've worked it out but they just can't be in the band together. Noah said he'll continue to make solo music. 

This isn't official obviously but Meegan was going through old photos on her Instagram story the other day and she mentioned that she doesn't think touring will resume this year. I have to agree with her. It just doesn't make sense. I won't be surprised if more artists cancel their tours in the coming months. 

London, Niko and Noah went on Instagram Live to clear the air. Noah announced he has Bipolar Disorder and will be seeing a therapist and he will also be going to AA meetings. But he won't be rejoining the band. I'm happy he's getting help because it's sad to see the youth go out like that. 

I was aware of London's issues (minus the whole selling guitars thing) but hadn't heard anything about Roman so this whole breakup was surprising. They're trying to find another lead singer so we'll see how that goes. They have a lot of potential but they're all still young so they've got time to figure it out.

I seen a different interview where angus said he had met axl once years ago, and to him he was very, very nice, someone is telling porkies somewhere lol

Meeting someone once is very different from having a close relationship though. Maybe they were just acquaintances rather than good friends?

If that's Niko playing the solos then he can definitely nail Slash's style and sound.

Yeah, I checked the band's Instagram and they confirmed it's Niko. Apparently he also recorded and mixed the song as well. Not bad for a 17/18 year old kid.

Slash son, Scott Weilands Son and Robert Trujillo son are all in the band together. Also is that a slash solo in the single. Solo is killer.

Pretty sure it's London's friend Niko Tsangaris who's the lead guitarist. He's very talented.

Yeah, its cool!

There was a clip on Meegans socials of Slash recording the lead theme maybe a month back. And then in the pinball interview Slash talked about it being on an upcoming release to honour the late composer, a friend/colleague of Slashs whose name escapes me.

I still didnt realize we'd get it s soon and certainly its a nice surprise to come across today

(The nylon guitar part is the first non-rock song I ever learned, so thats cool too)

It's in honour of his friend Robert Evans

I love this. It's beautiful. I'm happy Slash continues to do what he loves most. 

Maybe he wasn't expecting so much attention or scrutiny from mentioning the new album. It is the last thing many GnR fans wanted to hear. For me personally I'm always happy to know new SMKC is on the way.

So he has already grey hair. Look at the hairline. It's grey.

Yeah, it's been that way for a while. But I think he dyes it on the road because it's only seen when he's been at home for a long period

It was exactly like this. I was shocked as well and even thought that Slash was behind the Buckethead costume...it was Axl's worst vocal performance ever back then...that alone says it all. The weird look of the whole band was everything but not GnR. It was like watching a car crash. It still got me into NuGnR. But GnR lost every coolness factor that night.

Hit the nail on the head about losing the coolness factor. A lot of my people like myself were completely turned off. I didn't pay attention to anything GnR after that until I heard Slash was returning to the band. 

Not sure if this was posted anywhere

what is love story?

It's a movie from 1970. I have no idea why he's recording this though

It was always highly unlikely these shows would happen

Keeping it all positive today. This is the best selects video they've released so far. Slash killed it as usual. I finally heard Melissa in the background. Axl sounded great. 

I would at least wait until the beginning of the new year and see how things look. Is new music really coming?, etc before buying ticket

This was not good. At least it's about a good topic and supports a great cause. 

I should've let this thread stay dead 

If anyone's interested, London just teamed up with Scott Weiland's son, Roman, on a couple tracks

Happy to see the boys have a great friendship 

I'm excited! Can't wait to hear what they're working on. 

I definitely think KOHD is overrated. I just don't get it. I don't like it live or the studio version.
