It's crystal clear what I've said.

If a release comes (unlikely) it will contain vocals recorded in a studio of songs we've already heard that he sang 15-20 years ago.

 

And you're clinging on to the hope that he actually recorded lyrics for Zodiac, Tonto, SoulMonster, Seven and all the others lol.

At what point would you conceivably give up on that?  Like how many more years passing that you don't hear these fictional songs will you accept they weren't done?

How many more releases of patched vocals we've already heard will it take?

@Pele Marco Beltrami heard Seven, The General, and Thyme w VOCALS in 2003 when he added strings to these songs. He said Seven was the best of the bunch. Axl wanted CD2 out for the European summer 2010 tour and it was rejected for release by the record company. There is a complete second album with VOCALS and there has been for over a decade. Dude you are crazy if you think there aren’t a ton more completed songs with vocals.

But in Rio 2001 he looked ok...is it possible to change so much in that short amount of time??

He did look weird at the nba finals

Absolutely it’s possible especially if going through any type of chemotherapy

Honestly if they did something like this the rest of their career instead of a full album I could get behind that.

Perhaps / Atlas 2022

The General / Soulmonster 2023

etc

No no no no no no! I’m sorry but if this is all we get even this is year it’s incredibly underwhelming. We are like people who are starving being thrown scraps of food so it feels like a feast. These singles need to lead to at minimum a 2021 EP release. 

Super Punchy. Bass line is solid. I really like the drum sound. Don’t care that the vocals are 20+ years old. Do we really want 2021 Axl vocals (maybe 2006 or 2010 but I digress) Slash’s guitar work is sublime. Love when he plays Guns N Roses guitar. It’s been too damn long. HOPE we get an EP or album with at least one epic. The Epics have always trumped the rockers for me. But I still love a high quality rocker. Happy Hard Skool day everyone. It’s been a long 13 years!! 

It could have been one album with a bunch of B-sides. It could have been two albums separated by a couple of years so they had a chance to add some additional “A” material. I feel like had the second one come out in 1993 with more A+ songs we would be talking about the three best hard rock albums ever. 

They could make so much money if they could partner with the right designer for their merch. 90% of it just really sucks. UYI was such a cool time period for the band. There is so much interesting source material they could use. How is that only the lithographs are awesome? 

Well next week in Columbus is also a Thursday for a debut and midnight release. But I’m not getting my hopes up

Being a Guns N Roses fan is just a long series of disappointments.

Wonder what happened to 2020 intention to put Pretty Tied Up and Think About You. 

Love both those songs. Yesterdays would also work

I think we can now confirm that a triple album is coming out Friday

If any album comes it’s going to break my brain. It’s been WAY too long. 

It worked for me.

I clicked on this and they were playing Rocket Queen. I check back in tomorrow to see if they move onto another song

Meegan has deleted the soundcheck clips from her instagram.

It’s so dumb that they would make her do that. Who cares if everyone hears a 10 second instrumental clip of something that leaked 2 years ago and something that’s been out for weeks. Would any other band do that?! 

It probably gets played tonight. And if not…it’s gotta be soon. 

So weird seeing GNR playing a stadium in Vegas. I always think of Vegas for small venue shows like the HOB and The Joint. Man times have changed. 

I think all the 2’s on that list indicate the remixes. I think had we got CD2 in 2010 (yep 11 fucking years ago) like Axl wanted (he angrily canceled the 2010 European tour on Twitter in May 2010  I remember because I freaked out because I was flying to Paris in September to see them . And I believe that was a reaction to record company rejection of CD2)  we would have gotten the new album plus all the remixes. Fuck

Could be.  I think it's only "?? P Edit" that we don't know anything about.

Brain talked about Seven and said it was inspired by Ben Hur, which interestingly was filmed at Circus Maximus.

I hope Seven is Circus Maximus. That’s by far my favorite instrumental. The part where the guitars kick in is sublime.

There was an article around the Rio 2001 show that mentioned a song about child abuse, but OMG had been out for a while at that point and I think Axl said it was inspired by parts of the movie? Someone else might be able to find the article, I think it was from a Brazilian or Argentinian version of Rolling Stone.

There's one part in State Of Grace that sounds vaguely similar to part of The General, but they're pretty clearly separate songs.

I’m not sure that SOG and the General are two different songs. The first time I heard SOG my first thought was huh…..that song seems to have elements that are similar to that fucking cell phone clip. Also Bach described the General as having very high piercing vocals which SOG has. Also SOG never seemed like a complete song. No guitar solos. Just seemed like there was so meat left on that bone.

So I've been thinking about it..... 

What if we're just getting a live album with Absurb and HS as bonus studio tracks? 

 

This isn't mygnrCSI level stuff, but here's my case:

The soundboard audio of Madagascar (as seen/heard in the Social Media thread) 

Fernando confirming today that we're getting physical "vinyls" releases (as seen in the litho thread) 

Years of rumors that a live album / blu-ray is the next release coming

 

What say you mygnr? 

I’d say that would straight up fucking suck. No one wants to hear live tracks from the past 5 years. Axl hasn’t sounded awesome live since 2010. That would be a HUGE disappointment. 

I wrote the great American novel one time during KOHD. And the sequel during Rocket Queen. 

I never understood why Paul didn’t want to be the touring rhythm guitar player in Nu Guns. Is he allergic to money? Even if he’s not that great of a guitarist I’m sure that spot was his if he wanted it.

In regards to Slash I’m sure he just didn’t want someone foisted onto him without a discussion. That’s just a lack of respect on Axl’s part at the time. 

Shotgun Blues is pretty shit. Bad apples is so so. Breakdown is incredible but flawed. Could have been on the Estranged November Rain level with a few tweaks.

You think Eye On You is worse than Silkworms? I know it's a divisive track but it's decent for what it is, a brainless rocker of the kind we listen to from GNR all the time, it's got a badass groove and any addition from Slash and Duff would make it even better. Remember Nightrain is a song about being drunk, not exactly any more sophisticated topic than being a Mac Daddy in Eye On You. Now that they have used the worst CD leftover nothing can be ruled out, tbh.

I can’t almost guarantee that if Eye on You is ever officially released it will not have the Mac Daddy part anymore. It was sorta ridiculous 20 years ago and would be beyond ridiculous today. 

The lithograph is awesome. Hope the show is great!
