PirateRadio Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Would a non-release be a signifcant death bow to Axl and GNR? It seems equivalent bands are able to put a 3D movie in the theatres, release blue-ray dvds, venture into other arenas like satellite radio, and perform on talk shows. Does the fact that GNR can do none of these things make it impossible for any financial backing regarding new music to take place? Because if there is no new music, then a band is dead and put into a whole other category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnr are dying slowly, another failed release would just be symptomatic of that, not the killer blow.I doubt if anyone serious in the industry is completely sure it's coming out even now. And no, Fernando is not anyone serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlsalinger Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Just wish we could figure out what Axl is thinking. Does he just not care at all anymore? Or does he care too much? Either way, how hard could it possibly be to release 14 songs that were recorded 10 years ago. I swear Axl should have gotten a job at NASA working on a manned mission to Mars. At least there, working for decades on the project would make some kind of fucking sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no, Fernando is not anyone serious.I'm not saying they could still make money. But from touring, I don't think the band has enough funds needed to back new music.To me, no new music = a dead band. And the craziest thing of this all is that practically every single song performed live was not written by the vast majority of current band members....even the damn covers of course.

ThinkAboutYou Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I received confirmation recently that the release is still going ahead, and the previous holdup has now been resolved. I was given another estimate for a date and its not too far in the future.There isn't a date set in stone at this stage though.Was the confirmation from MSL or Hitman No actually, it was from a very reputable source within rockfuel. Sweet! I guess soon is still the word...Soon is always the word when it involves GNR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the GNR show in 3D?Metallica put their own money up for Through the Never, I doubt GNR produced the concert film, they also filmed just one show, I think Metallica did 4 or 5? I was asking whether GNR would dodge the Metallica movie? It makes no sense to go up against their movie. How many theatres would book Metallica movie and the GNR show at the same time. So next year for GNR. So you don't expect AFD to be in 3D? Seems like it is in 3D, so this could work out if Metallica are successful with Through the Never, GNR can ride behind that with the Vegas show which has all the props and strippers and flying pianos in 3D. That's an easier sell once the audience gets used to the idea of going to the Imax to see bands. So just hope TTN is a success!
