He obviously never learned it. Not even a bare bones version so he could put a spin to it. From his improvisation, it sounds like he hasn’t listened to it much either.  It starts fast and goes nowhere quick 

Improvisation wise, he’s never been great at developing something melodic. It would have been much better if he worked on something independently in that section.
 

Unfortunately it’s prob at the bottom of the to do list considering how much they play it live. I’m going to guess that it will be soundchecked a few times moving forward 

They may have footage. To be fair, that doesn’t also mean the sound/whatever came off the board is releasable for the entire show as well 

It’s safe to assume they have a ton of stuff that should see the light of day though

Those guys rip people off no end. What makes them sucsessfull is that they can low-ball you an offer and pay you there n then. If you've got the patience to sell to the right market you can make a lot more money

I mean that’s any business who’s selling used stuff. Take your used guitar to a music store and they will offer 60% of the secondary market. That’s how they stay in business. 

Always more $ in selling it yourself directly to an individual. What you’re giving up by having a store buying it way below market value is having to wait for that buyer to come along and doing the legwork yourself 

You can buy an empty case for around 100-150. I’d highly suggest people grab that if you want to fill it with whatever you have. It does look great, it’s solidly built and they may have forgotten to remove the hidden cassette. It’s worth it 

The original price these were selling for was just absurd. The vinyl and cassette is the main value here 

I hope they price the UYI set with that in mind. Otherwise I’ll wait for clearance pricing 

Looks like my signed box set is finally shipping 

Whatever. I did enjoy Pitchfork’s review for Jet’s Shine On though

Is there anything unique about the guitar besides the atrocious 4 decal?  Or is it pretty much the standard slash edition Les Paul?

It’s a normal Slash standard with a limited color top. I’ll keep it for now as it plays great.

If the secondary market gets really nuts on them then I’ll have to rethink and just replace with another Slash Standard. I have a feeling they are going to release another run with that color though. 

Yeah, I’m glad they left the decal off. It would cover a nice looking top

I ordered one of the 500 deluxe versions with the mini Gibson guitar. Still nothing. Anyone else still waiting?

I’m still waiting for my signed version. Luckily, the Slash 4 Les Paul is a great playing guitar and it’s tying things over

Have you received your signed box set? Mine is still pending, I ordered from the Slash shop and was supposed to be sent out in the 14th.

I don’t think any of the signed box sets have shipped

I got my Slash 4 Les Paul yesterday. Came with a full band signed litho. I wonder if they pulled those from the box sets for the guitar release. It’s the only thing that we could be waiting on that’s not available

This is my guess for how the conversation went for this merch:

 

Person 1 - what if we make a hoodie and sweat pants with really ugly graphics and price them way too high? 

 

Person 2 - terrible idea, why would anyone buy that. 

 

Person 3 - because some GN'R fans will buy anything

 

Person 1 - PLUS if we give it a vague Don't Cry related name, we can sell it in two colors since that song is one both Illusion. 

 

Person 2 - you got me you crazy sons of a bitches, let's do this! 

Or….

P1: Crap, Valentine’s Day is on Monday

P2: We should get some merch up and capitalize on that

P1: Idk….Don’t Cry with some heart bs? 

P2: Perfect. Just send it in to UME when done
 

Still waiting on my signed box set.

I did happen to score a limited Slash 4 Les Paul at retail though! Should be here next week

What they should of done was release the studio 60 audio. Do the tour then go in the studio and recorded it and cashed in twice.

I brought the 24 bit version and its sounds shit! Id rather listen too Studio 60 mp3 version even that could of done with slash being louder apart from thats its pretty good.

It wouldn’t surprise me if they do end up releasing that as well as a limited run 

Hilarious! Those things do happen though. Hopefully it’s pretty rare that it got out

The mix is so much better! Really enjoying what I'm hearing so far. 

This makes me wonder why they dropped the ball with the mix in the album. They probably should have just released a higher quality version of the livestream audio as the album instead. 

Yeah. Seems to be the case. I noticed Slash's hands magically change positions on the fretboard between consecutive cuts. 

This probably means we’re getting it as a live release 

Just got an update on my signed deluxe order

They would need a major streaming service to pick up the bill so someone could go through the footage and put it together 

The timing obviously would have been great to go with the UYI reissue. That’s not going to happen though 

I guess the question that would hold back any release is what story do they collectively want to tell vs what story does the footage show? I’m sure it’s not pretty for everyone involved at certain points

I'm not sure actually. Maybe it does? I feel like I would've noticed previously, but maybe not. 

Just checked my emails and the last batch of stuff I ordered came from there. Could just be where things are warehoused

I should be able to tell from the runout on the deadwax if it was pressed at TMR. 

If it was, it'll be very easy to investigate possible other pressings. The pressing plant has a huge window so you can see it operating 24/7

Doesn’t all of the merch ship from there? It looks familiar 

Looks like the toy truck is back in stock

That's just one dealer here in the US that I know of. I'm sure it'll be available elsewhere with cheaper shipping

I've never actually heard this album. I was thinking of blind buying it just for the hell of it. 

The Jeff Beck collab is interesting. There’s a few moments. Duff is obviously not well and I think that comes through these songs. It would have been better with the Johnny Thunders cover 

I grabbed the music on vinyl release a few years back

Same, especially when there is an edit with no T2 footage that’s been around forever.

It’s also possible that the movie studio paid for the video and owns/co-owns the entirety of the footage

I think Richard knows about the broad lines of the plan to release an album. Why so reserved if he doesn't know anything.

Those plans probably get changed constantly and most likely have been for his entire time in the band. It’s much better to say nothing than say where things lay this week
