2020_Intensions

Well we know they're not the same because of the leaked cell phone clip and the orchestral instrumental used to start shows in 2009-2011 ... The only similarity is the one chord progression ... But what we know of the two as of now they are not the same

I've noted before, as have others, how very similar the chorus of SOG sounds to what we know of the General

If you say so .. They played an instrumental part of the song to start every show for years and never got around to releasing it ... Now if it does get released (over 10 years later) it's going to not even be the same as it was then ... This band is a JOKE

Don't falsely get people's hopes up ... NOTHING is happening ... It's just yet another theory and more speculation ... Remember the spotify episode?

It will only turn out to be utter shit because of the changes made since the reunion .... Hardschool made me incredibly nervous about any other ChiDem songs ....

One mystery that's always bugged me is that Bumble said Atlas was going to be on the 2008 release but last minute was dropped due to there not being enough space for it, but members of this forum have pointed out that there was indeed room for it .... ??

Love that track so much. The guitar intro is beautiful, the verses are melodic, the chorus is rocking ... Not into the demo as much as I am the first version that leaked, because those Axl backing vocals are IT

I think sometimes people forget they literally only have 5 albums to work with ... Certain songs will never be played live again (OIAM .. Riad .. etc) others that were never played live so obviously wont be played now (DDM .. Shotgun)

I hear Axl clear as day

Perhaps was the leak with vocals that I wanted to hear completed the most !!!!!

I wouldn't call any track on any of those albums "epic" ..... LOL

Listening to that SOD my God was he all over the place .... When it switched to Richard to finish what a difference! Slash shouldn't be doing ANY ChiDem solos ... They've been awful since the start of the reunion!

I really hope I get to hear this in Hershey .. Love this cover and Axl sounds amazing!

What does Slash & Duff consider to be "epic" these days? What did they ever consider to be epic? They apparently weren't into Estranged & November Rain ... I could totally see them dubbing Hard Skool and Absurd as "epic" unfortunately

To me, never releasing The General, Seven, Thyme, Oklahoma, Soul Monster would be the strangest decision Axl has ever made ... Literally cannot give a good reason why these supposedly epic songs would not be released outside of "he doesn't want to" which is total bullshit.

Missing the biggest difference ... That was the first show following the release of ChiDem ... This show is just a different order of songs with just a few new additions ... Yeah, it's nice they finally changed the setlist but it really isn't all that special

He sounds great on Nightrain especially that first verse where he was using his low voice with slight rasp

Love Bad Obsession, but yeah Wichita Lineman slander shows strong ignorance

It's an Izzy song, same as PTU ...

Ya'll suck every ounce of excitement at seeing what they'll play with this setlist obsession like damn just wait a few more hours

All the crazies come out the woodwork for the first show of a tour ....

I'm referring to the arguments, not his repeating himself, as entertaining

So what. Pele was the most entertaining thing on this forum since the Locker leaks ... It's been VERY dry since then

I disagree. While it is true that they've had lots of success and have no need for feeling embarrassed at the situation, I do think it is shameful to PRETEND to still want to release new music and not be honest about their intentions of just being legacy

I think their paychecks quell any feeling of embarrassment ... Cmon now ... What's to be embarrassed about? GnR has been a legacy act for over a decade now
