By chance do you have San Antonio 2017?

Good Grief. After translating the nme article, the first paragraph shows a release of 8 Dec, the product info shows a release of 12 Dec and CDjapan site who I ordered through shows 20 Dec.

I've ordered from them before. They shipped a day or two before the release and I had it a couple days later. I did pay for the priority though.

My thought was “why now rerelease all this stuff?”

I noticed on the official store, many older items now up for preorder; Lies, Vegas 2012, Tokyo 92 DVD, etc. https://gnrmerch.com/collections/music

Nothing official was ever said about it releasing “being streaming or what not”on the 27th. GNRMerch.com has always stated it ships on the 26th or 27th. It “releases” when you throw it on your turntable, hook up the USB and record.

Sorry I don’t have one for sale. I snagged one from 2023 but never able to get a 2017 one.

Conspiricy theory here: what if the band or label is trying to clear the slate of these already done songs to make way for “40 years of GNR” in the much speculated return to touring in 2025?

I wouldn’t be surprised if they dropped an LP with tracks we’ve had since 2021 and live material from the current lineup. They have played some lesser known ones in recent years like Dead Horse, locomotive, Nice Boys, Reckless Life, PTU , Anything Goes or Slither would round out an EP or LP. A 2 disc version could include some illusion live tracks remixed but not yet released.

That’s an impressive list of artists. My daughter is the youngest at 11, but she will rock LALD, Brownstone, Sympathy, Michelle along with the radio favorites. We’ve been here 8 years (thank you Air Force) and it’s been a blast. I went in 2017 with a friend from Colorado but my kids weren’t quite ready for “the big stage” as my daughter calls it.

Taking the family to see GNR. Kind of a bucket list for three generations to go together.

All we get typically is opening act and doors open time.

It’s a cool piece but $50? I could see 20 for a single LP, 30 would be pushing it. Side note, the label on the vinyl itself has the AFD tracklist listed, not the GH.
