  1. So, I'm super hard of hearing these days. Sometimes songs just sound muddy or muted, and The General leak and official streaming sounded only a little different to me. Both a bit muddy... The vinyl by far is the superior version, and I can pick up a lot of layers I was missing on the other versions.
  2. Am I the only one who misses the horn section from the concert intros? It was such a sinister, cinematic sound. I like the orchestra we can hear in the leaked mix, and I imagine the official release will have them higher in the mix.
  3. Totally! I was at the last of the 2014 Vegas shows. Good stuff!
  4. I can't lie, I had MacDaddy going through my head when I heard it. That and that drumbeat could have been from the same sessions for sure.
  5. Throw that one with the other "new" singles, the newest leaks, Atlas, OMG, a rerecording of Better with the semi reunion intro, and The Seeker/Witchita and we have a whole album. I'm here for it. It won't happen, but I'm here for it.
  6. I guess I am getting old! I could've sworn earlier and alternate versions existed... My memory is not as sharp as it used to be. I used to have CDs full of the live boots and demos from all eras, and every little snippet before 2008, but they have been long gone. I was always super keen on the insider trading thing. I was never a part of it, but the tales were always fun to read.
  7. Folsom Prison Blues, my friend. Just a jog up the highway from the venue. I'm a Sacramento native, and figured they'd use other iconography, but Johnny Cash is fun.
  8. Loved the cover and disc art on this one. Too bad it never came out. I'd be willing to bet, though, in a few years there will be a set similar to this that runs through the entire catalog.
  9. IRS has always been one of my least favorite songs, though the demos were vastly superior to the release. Shackler's was great seeing live years ago, which was my vote. ITW would be great, too, musically. If Axl could muster baritone for the whole song, and not sound like a lounge singer, then those could work.
  10. If the World had vocals on the Locker Leaks, I believe. Which was surprising since we'd never heard of it prior to the 2007 leaks.
  11. Even at Rio 2001! Will this be one of the tracks with vocals post 2002, a la Better? I am holding out hope since it was only an instrumental piece in 2006-2007 (as far as we know), but the cellphone clip was more recent than that. Guess we will have more to talk about soon enough!
  12. I'll bet you a shiny nickel that the lyrics in the Prostitute remix feature in The General... Based on absolutely nothing. I can make stuff up, too!
  13. He was posting on the GNR Reddit. I can't figure out how to post the screenshot here...
  14. To quote Fernando, "Perhaps is a great song; the General is a monster."
