I tried to purchase from NZ but it says VPNs are not allowed. Bummer.

Touch tunes....for someone not in the US, is it just an app or online jukebox ? Can you rip or download from it?

Never heard of it until 3 hours ago

It’s an app that connects to internet connected jukeboxes at various bars and restaurants.  You buy credits to play songs. The songs are on the jukeboxes, not your device or app.  Think of it as an online music menu at a pup.

"Honey, Axl Rose decided not to release a new song, which I have heard anyways via a previous leak (that was later profiled in a Rolling Stones article which may or may not have gotten pulled). Apparently if I drive 30km to our local bar, I might be able to hear it on a Jukebox via an app that Axl's brasilian mother figure slash manager forgot to cancel the upload to. Are you cool with watching the kids, or is that a no?"

Ha. We have one bar and it’s a mile down the road.

Anyone know why Axl just yelled out twenty two? 

It may or may not correlate, but adding to the conspiracy theories; the NASCAR GNR car starts shipping at the end of this month.

When you write the 8’s like that, I feel like the next song should be a cover of Power of Love from Back to the Future.

Un F'N believable.  Now F'N Perhaps is postponed due to all you F'N sleuths on the F'N internet.

Yes.

Therefore it’s safe to assume they would follow the same release schedule.

Even if let’s say a song is out in the next 3-4 days, there are no link fires active right now as far as we can tell. I don’t think there’s anything coming.

SXM shows are pre-recorded and replayed a few times.  I've done road trips where the 12 hour blocks repeat.  My guess is the 3-4 days was referring to prior news and probably is not relevant to anything today.

I don't know if there's malicious intent. I don't think so.

It's probably just that when media outlets are looking for related pictures to accompany their news articles, they're looking at agencies. And since GN'R don't allow media photographers at their own shows, the only available pictures from news/photo agencies are from GN'R performances at festivals (the picture in question is from Austin City Limits). Recent articles have started using pictures from Glastonbury.

It’s almost like an algorithm.  They search a photo, that one comes up, they click on it, thereby keeping the algorithms going.

Hey guys and gals,

It's been a while since I've looked for it but have the original files for the artwork of the bonus live discs come up anywhere?  Digital releases do not feature this artwork for the live discs, only the general box set art. All discs from the AFD box set had their separate art in fairly high res files.

I can only seem to find lo-res ones, and not the other variations :

These are the ones I have. It seems that until someone with the LP set takes some good photos this is it. Good luck my friend.

I don’t use Spotify hardly ever. With that said, the only connection that comes up is an album. Everything else is atlas songs, artists, etc. none of which are GNR. US Spotify, BTW.

Adding fuel to the fire, as of last week I could search the linkfire links and find the regular AFD, UYI, HS, etc but now it doesn’t show the links specifically, it shows all sorts of GNR things, none of which are relevant. My point is Somebody changed the way linkfire can be searched on yahoo and google for GNR in the last few days. At least for my browser.

I have not found the 4K version but I have a really good version of the audio. Does anyone have good cover art to put on these files?

Definitely an interesting find.

I don't know why people are expecting more than two songs this year. It's pretty clear that they are releasing songs whilst they are touring. That's the reason they are being released at all, to promote the tour. 

It’s a race to the finish. On one side we have 82 unreleased but remixed ready to go UYI live tracks. On the other side we have 2 or 4 or 6 tracks that might be all new or might be reworked that may or may not be ready to go.

If it's true that Slash wanted to release his Snakepit album as the next GNR album, they were all in the wrong. Before Izzy came back into the fold, Axl was right to bring in other guitar players to help with the song writing. None of them were strong enough song writers on their own to release music that lived up to what was expected with GNR. 

117 degrees has some very solid tracks. Take the best of Snakepit, 117 degrees, Hard School, and This I Love - and you have a very solid album. With that said, they were probably in a losing position where the album would have done below expectations because of what the trends were with music at the time. From what we have heard, Axl's 1999 album was more in line with where things were musically, but might have risked alienating long time fans. It also didn't have a strong single until Better or Shackler were written. A song like Silkworms could have been a single if it didn't have a minute long intro, and lyrics that would be a hassle to play on the radio, but it sounds way too divergent from what is expected from GNR. So you have the classic GNR fans who won't accept it, and to younger people Axl is an 80's shit rocker trying to pose as Nine Inch Nails, almost like when Motley Cru tried to convince people they were a brooding grunge act. 

You have to keep in mind that the VR album came out in 2004. By that time, things had changed a lot, and there was an appetite for big classic rock acts. All the storming of the 90s with grunge, and later nu-metal had come and gone. Scott Weiland was a big star, but I am not sure that the VR album would have done as well in the late 90s. 

Lot’s of information to process.  I like it.

The leaked set list so far up to Rocket Queen.

My gut tells me some various live tracks will be put on random EPs for the mysterious few songs Slash has talked about. Say one new song 2-5 live track EP or No new song and more random live EPs with selected tracks.  All speculation from me. Not my preferred method of release for these shows though.
