Not sure about toxic but I'd say frustrating. Finck, Bumblefoot, Ashba, Fortus, Tommy, Brain, and Frank were replacing some pretty massive names in Slash, Duff, Gilby / Izzy and Matt / Steven. New music is the only way to prove that they were worthy of replacing those former band members. Until then, they're all just cover musicians. With the supposed three planned albums, they would have plenty of music to show the world. Instead they toured for ten years and released one album (to be fair, they've released more music than the reunion lineup). It'd be even more frustrating to spend so many hours in the studio then in 2022, those songs they worked on are finally released but played by different people.

I just noticed that side one is called G and side two is called R.

Music video is awesome. I like that they included sound check footage of Duff singing the chorus. Turning on the captions has pretty accurate lyrics too.

Works for me.

It’s live in NZ on Spotify and Apple Music.

Captain and The Kid and Wonderful Crazy Night are two great recent albums from Elton.

So to listen to the new single, you have to go to a bar? You can’t make this up.

'Seemingly close' You know what band this is, right?

Prepare for disappointment in 8 minutes!

That’s a reach. It’s ok to say the management are garbage. There’s always an excuse when it comes to this band. Like how DJ Ashba blamed the crew for not putting the stage up fast enough to justify playing three hours late.

I don’t get this band sometimes. In 2023, how do you promote something so poorly unless it’s intentional?

Sucks that after 20 plus years in the band, Richard still can’t make it onto a shirt. Even when Chris Slade rejoined AC/DC for one tour, he still made it onto merch.

Only in the world of GNR could we be excited for a song we’ve already heard before.

I don't really get the 'wrong band to headline Glastonbury' narrative. I'm assuming its a UK artist exclusive slot? Anywho, I just checked it out and I was hella impressed. Axl seemed to kick it up a gear in many places, both in vocals and general movements. Its like he knew he was on the world stage and wanted to prove the naysayers wrong, and he certainly did. That "you know that you" at the end of You Could Be Mine was intense. Sure his vocals were occasionally patchy but he was on point for most of the night. I saw some reviews saying that the crowd seemed dead at times. Thats just crowds in general nowadays. But that Glastonbury crowd really came alive.
