Because they already have a lead guitarist, his name is Slash

Yeah the new album is quite forgettable and the production isn't great either.

They need to get rid of Dave Cobb and go back to Elvis.

Can you post it here?

Interesting. Wonder when he'll have time to record then.

Meaning 2025 or late 2024?

I don't think they'll be able to do anything this year since Slash will be on the road for most of the year.

Hopefully you will, they did it on the last US run.

I'm going to see them tomorrow night.

Yeah, still not the same thing.

That's just meeting people on the street, that's not an organized meet and greet.

They don't do meet and greets.

Yay!

Happy New Year to you too!

Happy to hear that there will be another SMKC album and also a tour for the other solo album. Hope he keeps Todd, Fitz, and Frank for that tour. Yes that's it exactly, they don't want the interview sidetracked with GnR questions when they're wanting to talk about SMKC or whatever.

Yes, only part that he rerecorded is his vocal. All the instruments are the same as the 90s recording.

Nah they wouldn't have been a good fit for anything more than a guest appearance.

That's how I feel too. What's laughable though is Duff saying that "nobody leaves." That's just not true; at the show I went to this year a lot of people left after SCOM.

Yeah he put a lot of thought into the recording process but I don't think he cared about the details of the mix. There's a pretty big contrast between the records that Elvis mixed for him and this one.

He definitely doesn't, otherwise he wouldn't have been ok with SMKC 4 being released in its final form. That's a pretty amateur sounding mix too. I'm blaming Caram, I've always said that he doesn't really know what he's doing. Absurd and HS aren't bad but Perhaps and General are pretty bad mixes imo.

I'm looking forward more to Slash's guest singers album and SMKC 5 (whenever that happens).

Who cares? I'm ready for something completely new. Yup

Cowritten by Myles and Michael Baskette (who also produced it) too. The production is miles ahead of The General and Perhaps. @IzzysMissy Did you talk to your co-workers about the song? What do they think? Can I send you my song?

Yes forgot to mention Myles, and Elvis produced it also.
