Yeah man that room is badass! 

Thanks!

We put a lot of work into it. It's an old house, (built in 1907) and one of the first things we did after we moved in was fix the basement up.

If you guys could chose:

3 1/2 hours of music (28+ songs) with Mickey Mouse voice.

or

1 hour with full on rasp UYI Tour style?

To me, watching what he did with AC/DC, he choses to sing like that (MM) for longer shows.

I agree with you. Axl paces himself for a 3 hour show. Me personally...I rather have an hour show with full rasp, but mix up the setlist every night. 

Or

Have an hour and half or 2 hour shows like someone else suggested. 

I really like Hardschool, especially the verses and chorus. I'm not crazy about the intro/bridge/guitar solos, but that could easily be fixed with Duff and Slash. 

I wish they could get Izzy back in the fold...at least to help write new music.

I know that's probably not going to happen.

Theoretically, he be involved with the album, but not tour with band, which he doesn't like to do. 

Has there been any news/rumors at all about Izzy?

What sucks about the lithos is the originals are so much better than the reprints. Reprints being what we fans buy, I mean. Take a look at the Jordan one as an example. 

 

This is the original 

This is what the ones we bought look like:

 

Yeah, I have that litho. It certainly made more sense to me when I saw the artist's real vision. 

I still like it though.

Haha, come on down. I'm an hour south of Nashville.

exactly, also GO GBO, GO Vols baby. Family is from Knoxville, and UTK is where i hope to get my PhD!

Nice!!! I'll be at the game this weekend. Hopefully we won't embarrass ourselves like last week. 

My wife went to UT for dental school. (It's in memphis though)

In that case GnR should just put all 15 of tom zutaut’s storage locker discs on it and call it a day. 

joking aside; I guess that means the new pinball will have all the greatest hits and then maybe a handful of deep cuts... maaaayyybe also one new song, if we are lucky...

Sounds about right. You want fast songs on a pin typically. For example, Estranged wouldn't work well on a pin, but Out Ta Get Me is perfect. 

Guns will likely come out in 3 models.

Standard edition - around 8k

Limited - 9500

Collectors - 12,500

Typically, they remove a few features of the gameplay itself for the lower cost standards. 

The LE's will typically have non reflective glass, a shaker motor, powder coated armor, topper, headphone jack, upgraded speakers, a different art package, upgraded speakers

Collectors edition is the same game under the glass, it just has a different art package, unique topper, maybe unique molded figures...stuff like that

How many songs can a pinball machine hold, on average?

Modern pins could hold thousands of songs...of course none do because of licensing.  

New pins have LCD screens with rich graphics, and WAV files controlled by a computer. The rulesets of the games are very complex...almost like a video games with objectives and stories and modes, etc... Every pin's code is different depending on the type of game they envision making. 

Jersey Jack Pinball, who is making this game, basically has a computer in the pin. 

Some companies like Stern use boards with CPU's and typically like an SD card where all the media is stored. 

I have an ACDC pin and it has 12 songs.I think my Metallica pin has 14. Iron Maiden has 12 I believe. 

Just now, rocknroll41 said:

What songs were on the 1994 version? Welcome to the Jungle (Live), Ain’t Going Down (w/vocals), and... Paradise City, I think? Maybe also Nightrain?

Anything else?

Sweet Child of Mine. Coma. My Michelle. Mr. Brownstone 

For the most, it was just bits of songs, and they sounded pretty bad.

The sound on new pins is amazing.

This is kind of what happened to me. After the NITL tour once got started I strictly ignored all GNR related social media including this board. This because I didn’t want to know anything about the setlist etc. before my first show which was London 2017 1st night. Hence, I didn’t know anything about the lithos as well. 

At the show I saw the (now) famous Jack the Ripper litho and really liked it. But nevertheless I skipped it because I didn’t want to have a „poster“ with me the whole night, especially such an expensive „poster“.

Back from my London trip I went back „online“ (in terms of GNR) and learned about the lithos. You might guess how my reaction was 😄

haha, I almost didn't get the Nashville 2016 because I thought I'd mess it up the 3 plus hrs I was at the show. I'm a huge GnR fan, but for whatever reason, I've never been on the forums. I wish I had caught on to these earlier. I'm not a concert litho expert by any means, but I think these have been done incredibly well

Thank you to everybody who helped make this possible. You know who you are

This is amazing. It'd be really cool to have then all framed in an a "gallery" of a sort.

I have some of the lithos on your list though. If you're interested, send me a PM

Thank you! Will do.

I hope you have deep pockets! Some rare and expensive lithos on that list!

You're not kidding! I may have to get a second job  

Maybe a long shot by now, but here's what I'm looking for, if anyone is in a selling mood. I'm not flipping anything...just want them for my collection. 

Cincinnati, San Francisco, Orlando, Madrid, London, Atlanta, Munich, Hannover, Berlin, Paris 2017, Tokyo (Godzilla), Wellington

Welcome to the party pal! Which 10 do you have rockytop? What do you pay for framing at the hobby lobby?

MCS first show is in 20 days. Guess we will know then! My hard copy tickets came today....so excited for this show.

Thanks! I've got the set of 3 from the LA shows. Chicago (Jordan one) Nashville 2016 (I was at both Nashville shows), San Antonio, Philadelphia (Rocky one), Winnipeg, Hawaii (3 surfboards), and Brisbane. 

I loved GnR for a long time now, but I'm super late to the lithographs. I'm really enjoying this thread and seeing what all the reactions were to the various prints. 

I went to the Nashville show and picked that one up but was clueless to the fact that they were doing these at every show. I've got about 10 of them now and keeping Hobby Lobby in business with framing. 

I'm new here, so there's a good chance I'm doing something wrong, but I tried to PM you and it said you couldn't receive messages. Anyway, I'd be interested if you have it still. 

I'm excited about the new Guns Pinball machine. I'll be getting one for sure. I've been active in the pinball world for a long time now. I have a bunch of pins at home. I had the pin from 1994 in my collection for about 10 years. 

Eric Meunier is designing the game, and he's very talented. I wish they would get someone like Arian Buhler to do the artwork.

Has anyone heard anything about the songlist in the game?
