Will this be getting a VHS release?
Making fn videos part 4?
Andy Morahan will be weeping with joy.

The leak of The General / Monsters after thinking we'd be waiting another 6 weeks or whatever for The General.
This thread is making me want to go to another gig! This is the first time in years that there is no upcoming gigs right?

I stopped our shared Spotify playlist last night dead in its tracks to make an announcement that I wanted to play an unreleased Guns N’ Roses song. I threw on “Monsters” and cranked it up loud. Then I forced people to listen to me discuss the merits of the song, the bridge, how Axl referred to it as one of his heaviest moments, etc.
I’m a lot of fun at parties.
Playing Absurd to new people at parties is a great icebreaker.

Does anyone have decent scans of the Ritz and Las Vegas shows from the vinyl boxset so I can use them for artwork on my phone?

Wonder if we'll all still be here? I dread to think!
In 20 years time we'll all still be waiting for CD2 to come out

My Japan CD single arrived today in the UK.

but at least we have the Monsters leak. Much better than getting just 1 track we already have a version of and 1 unreleased track. All in all, not bad to get 2 unreleased Gn'R tunes in 1 year and a new version of Perhaps imo.
the quality of Monsters is also means that Axl might have more unreleased tunes from the Chinese era on that caliber as I personally consider Monsters as the strongest track released from the NITL lineup.
That's very true. All in all I think we can be happy with 2023 as GNR fans.
If we get the same level of productivity in 2024 I'd be happy.
Also agree about Monsters being the best 'new' track. That song deserves a stand alone release really, and a big budget music video while they're at it!

No Monsters then, that sucks.
GNR could have ended 2023 with a bang by dropping Monsters as a hidden third track but I guess that was never going to happen really!

2004 I think. Second or third year of high school.
AFD was the first CD I bought, I then pretty quickly bought UYI, I also remember buying Lies at a record fare.
There's a picture of me somewhere of me and a friend with a lookalike of the Queen, and I'm wearing an AFD t-shirt from around the same time.

Has anyone ordered the CD from that Japanese website? I've read stories how people were scammed by the site and how they increased the shipping costs once the item had been paid. Someone even claimed that his PayPal was hacked after buying from that website.
I want the CD. It's also avaliable for preorder on ebay but it is more expensive there.
CDJapan is super legit and has existed for decades I think. I've ordered from them plenty of times and never had any problems.

Got my Perhaps vinyl today, better late than never!
They sent it out in a very thin cardboard envelope, so I'm surprised it didn't get damaged in transit.
Nothing is ever easy with GNR!

No real promo from Axl and no music videos basically destroyed any chance of Chinese Democracy being the commercial success that it deserved to be.
I imagine Axl felt mysterious and edgy going into hiding but it was self sabotage on an industrial scale and he effectively ended his career as a commercial recording artist in that moment.
Here we are today, 15 years later and still waiting for the follow up!

My CD boxset arrived today to the UK. Surprisingly I didn't even get stung with import tax, must have slipped through the net at customs.
At £70 posted this was a crazy deal, it's still £180 on Amazon, which was way out of my price range.
Thanks @Kelmi for the heads up!

I'm still in genuine disbelief that we have 20 minutes of CD2
A solid third of an album at least!
The General / Monsters leak will keep this GNR fan happy until at least the Spring! Then I'll start getting edgy again wishing for Atlas to come out.

It would be wild if the 7" only has the 2 songs and the Japanese cd single ends up being the only place to officially get Monsters.

So...2 weeks until we get off the train?....or the conductor announces, due to misconduct, this train is permanently delayed?....
The week of 8th I'm fully expecting a further delay, this latest Fernando episode will probably push it back to January/February if we're lucky!
At least we have the leaks!
-
Does anyone have any decent fanmade artwork for this?
-
Whoever is keeping these songs off YouTube is doing an excellent job.
After listening to these non stop on there for the first few days I've not been able to listen to either song in weeks!
-
I just caved and bought the Japanese CD single!
£21 posted to my door! I went for express shipping

Presumably there will be a CD outside of Japan now. I can't see it just being there so I'm going to hold off ordering for a bit to see.
Good news though- a decent quality copy of The General will be great.
I'd say there's a 90% certainty that a CD single becomes available worldwide in the next week or so.
It's great we're getting some sort of CD single though!

It's crazy to think he'll be 70 in 8 years.
Will we have a new GNR album by then?
I'll settle for another single in 2024.
