  1. I just wanted to say that no one can fuck with your taste Russ and I will break into your house, steal your vinyls and sniff your significant other's panties.

    Hahaha.... thanks? Speaking of my significant other... she told me last night that she did a "bad job on Christmas this year" and she got a little upset. I asked why and she said that she got me some records she thinks I'd really like but shipping is taking too long and none of them will be here by Christmas. I told her it was totally ok and I wasn't mad at all! She then showed me what she ordered and I came to the realization that I have the BEST wife ever!! She got me pretty much everything on my list:

    Beastie Boys-Check Your Head

    Judgement Night-Soundtrack

    Outkast-Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

    Rage Against The Machine-Live

    YES! That's the last Beastie's LP I need along with some other stuff I keep wanting but just never buy for myself!

    Also spent some xmas $$ on Discogs last night and got these 45s:

    Awesome day today.

    Traded in:

    Jeff Beck- Wired, Flash

    Aerosmith-Rocks

    Elton John-11-20-70

    Picked up:

    Pearl Jam-Ten (with bonus LP)

    Georgia Sattelites-Open All Night

    Mötley Crüe-Girls Girls Girls (sealed/stickered 180g rerelease)

    4 used records I never listen to to 3 brand new ones that will be getting a lot of play. I'm happy :)

    I did that recently with an extra pressing of In Utero that I had. Took it up to one of my local stores, traded it in and got 3 new records in return. It was great to trade something I'll never listen to again for 3 LPs I'll listen to quite a bit!

    I bought a lot of vinyl in the past year. Pagan/black metal: Kampfar, Burzum, Falkenbach, Heidevolk, Finntroll, Urfaust, Progressive metal: Vulture Industries, 60's - 70's rock: Rolling Stones, Deep Purple, The Who, Neil Young, The Doors, Janis Joplin, Johnny Cash, bands that are influenced by the rocksound of the early 70's: Kadaver, Graveyard and also Flemish and Dutch folk/cabaret such as Boudewijn De Groot, Zjef Vanuytsel, Willem Vermandere,...

    Nice to see Cash in there. I have an old hits LP of his as well as American IV, V & VI. Now that they're re-issuing all of the American LPs, I'm going to go back and get I-III.

    I ordered a couple things a few weeks ago that showed up today: Soundgarden-Badmotorfinger and Eminem-The Slim Shady LP. I'm very happy with the sound of both.

    So far i have Folsom Prison blues volume 1, at San Quentin and a couple of weeks ago i bought a bootleg lp of the 1969 Johnny Cash/ Bob Dylan studio session.

    Folsom and San Quentin are two others I keep meaning to buy. Did you buy the re-issues or are they original? I'm just curious how either sound.

    Both lp's are original editions, i bought them at a fleamarket a little while ago.

  4. Really awesome! They were magic!

    I wish I had gone on one of these shows in the 80s

    So do I. I so wish I could've seen that show. Yeah, the sheer magic. But the Whiskey was a bit too far away for me. They performed in my country in 1987, Amsterdam. I didn't know about it as there was hardly any publicity. So they played for a a crowd of 65 (!) people. When I found out I was pulling my hair!! What a missed chance, only 65 people in the audience!

    10636031504_659e4f9bbf_o.jpg

    Oh my god! This show must had been amazing!

    At the 1987 Paradiso show Axl almost got in a fight with a guy in the audience. During Knockin' on heavens door this guy yelled "fuck, fuck Guns N' Roses", Axl wasn't really happy about this. Full show in audio can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2yjgdHnYJ4&list=PL0A708E0C698B4EBD

  5. Great performance of "used to love her" at the whiskey club in 1988.

    This was a surprise appearance after their first year of touring the Appetite album, which had three huge hit singles when they played this 1/10/88 gig. They showed up to help fight a lame lawsuit against Ruben at Rock City News, the Hollywood rock mag that helped a lot of people then. (I was a contributing writer with the byline of Phantom.) Adler was "sick" and didn't make it. Also on the bill was Faster Pussycat, Cathouse, The Zeros, D'Molls and Funhouse. Vince Neil came out to sing FP's encore. He was a pretty successful guy at this point and it showed when he stood beside this newer batch of L.A. rockers. This was a little bigger than the average show, but it's still a good representation of how this part of the scene looked, sounded and felt on any given night. (Tom Cruise wasn't a rocker and he was never seen at any rock shows.) MC Riki Rachtman wasn't a TV VJ yet, he was owner of The Cathouse, where FP was the ongoing house band (and singer Taime Downe was Riki's co-partner). The Cathouse is where throngs of stripper gals went to dance to hard rock songs on Thursday nights and rocker guys showed to score. These dudes would never be seen with their long hair in a mainstream pop dance club playing Michael Jackson--but at the Cathouse, some would even dance!

    Rock n' f@#king roll!! This is and always will be Guns N' Roses.

  6. Let's not forget about video footage from the Chinese Democracy sessions. Do guys think there is any? It would make a fantastic documentary, that's for sure.

    That's the only thing you care of? Why not every unreleased song and concert recording from 1985 - 1995?

  7. I know there are some new rules and stipulations and whatever... but I'm not trying to hate.

    It's just I was looking up Nightrain Rock AM Ring. And not only doesn't it seem like the same band anymore, it doesn't even seem like the same frontman. So I'm just curious, as nut-swingers transform to haters before the trainwreck that is GNR.... Is it due to no new music, or the horrendous live shows Axl does these days. If it's somethin else feel free to mention.

    I just got tired of this circus called Guns n' Roses. To me the magic is gone. Nothing new, nothing refreshing. Just the same shit over and over again.

  8. I have been thinking about the Lies thing. In my opinion it was probably recorded between 5th January - 31st January (Wall may have got the month right).

    Have a read of this about a Drunk Fux gig from John's page...

    01.14.88 - Coconut Teaszer, Hollywood, CA

    set: I Got A Line On You, Wishing Well, Communication Breakdown, Scarred For Life, Sentimental Movie, Yesterdays, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, Born To Be Wild, Honky Tonk Women

    audio/video recording?: audio

    notes: This band is known as the Drunk Fux - Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy, Steven, West Arkeen & Del James. The first performance of 'Yesterdays,' Axl mentions they will try to record it next week Axl sings lead on 'Yesterdays' & 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door,' and shares vocals on 'Honky Tonk Women.'

    They had a recording session booked then, late January (c. 21st) 1988. 'Yesterdays' is an acoutsic track: it is not improbable that 'Yesterdays' was considered for Lies at some stage.

    Yesterdays sounds great. A bit more bluesy sound.

    It sure is.

  9. Thanks for the list. I have pretty much all of those, but didn't have "time" to organize all this stuff.

    No problem. I'll keep moving forward with it once I get more information on the later Use Your Illusion demos. That's gonna be quite a project.

    Do you have any informations about songs like Sentimental Movie, Too Much Too Soon, Bad Obsession with Izzy on vocals, Bring It Back Home, Just another Sunday...?

    There are also demos of Yesterdays, The Garden, Back Off Bitch (instrumental), etc....

    If anyone knows anything about these songs... please share the knowledge with us. :)

    I have those demos as well with the drum machine. I listen to them all the time. Although I don't have a definite date, it really sounds like they were recorded before Appetite for Destruction for several reasons. They had a recording track at the Hell House, West Arkeen is credited with co-writing a bunch of those songs, the way Axl's vocals sounds is more like that time period, he says they wrote Bad Obsession a year before Mr. Brownstone so maybe they decided to record it while they were with West. Marc said that it was probably 1986 at the Hell House which makes a lot of sense if you look at all the facts. It would be great if we could get a confirmed date on it though.

    You mentioned a Back Off Bitch instrumental among the other songs. What does that sound like? Do you know where it's available?

    At the beginning of Crash diet and some other songs you hear music playing in the background which imo made it a bit obvious that these songs were not recorded in a studio.

  10. Axl has said repeatedly the Sorry (as a whole) isn't about Slash.

    Yeah, okay.

    What do you wanna be > Sorry, but Sorry is pretty good.

    Was pretty good, like 10 years ago when Axl had the energy to sing the song.

  11. The live picture wich is in the middle of the collage was taken at The Ritz in 1991. During that time Steven was already fired from the band. This frame is not rare and not even official, just a waste of money.
