suckerpunched03 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Well that’d be a shame. I enjoy following the band and think the shows have been great times. I think we’re all allowed to think somethings sound boring and stale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like it. Adler better shut the fuck up and keep his family quiet or something this cool might not happen. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gibbo Posted April 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) It's not going to be a show with the originals. Just a AFD Deluxe edition with some goodies is what I have heard. Edited April 30, 2018 by Gibbo 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRfanMILO Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I’ll buy the “remastered AFD” story the moment i see pictures of this billboards outside the UK. Right now, it seems something’s gonna happen over there. A release would obviously be worldwide, yet we haven’t seen one single billboard in the US. Maybe it’s related to them playing Donnington again, after what happened in 1988? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Universal owning the gnr.fm domain though, points to a release. Edited April 30, 2018 by Spirit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Comstock Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 This is a band that did an "AFD 30th show" that was just like any other NITL show... Anyone else think there's a decent chance that, should an AFD box-set come out, it will be a non-remastered AFD with 4~ demos as 'bonus tracks', and any live material will be NITL? Or is there a reason I should think they're finally gonna release something properly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they waste 2 new songs on a AFD remaster? The remaster on it's own will sell, if they want to give people extra incentive they can add a mixed / remastered ritz 88 bonus and some demos, some video footage etc. GNR can make more money from releasing a handful of new songs separately so that's what they'll do IF they release music. And I also couldn't see them including any live versions from the NITL tour, it wouldn't really make sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As big of a GNR fan as I am, I'm not sure I would get a remastered AFD if it's only that. I've heard the different demos before so even IF they would include that, I may not purchase it.

Hollywood Gunner Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 the only good thing i can think of about an afd rerelease is that it can be used as a prelude to uyi 3 and 4 to be released a year later. i know, fat chance but in an ideal non-gnr world thats how it would go down 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson87 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 They better pull some unheard Appetite stuff from the vault if they're doing a deluxe version. Most of the demos have already been heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
31illusions Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 What is wrong with you people? I don't want any new songs with Frank on Drums. Seriously, but I will take anything and everything with AFD 5. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Gunner Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 2 hours ago, default_ said: Guns N' Roses as brand still have legal obligations with the label, they cant release ANYTHING without labels approval. Even if it is self founded. what exactly are the bands obligations to the label ? do they owe them X number of albums? are they signed for so many years? for life? how exactly does that shit work? i know gnr has numerous obstacles but the label seems to be a big one. would be nice if they could get that outta the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 5 hours ago, soon said: But Axls re-recording comments form 99' scare me. He said the drumming sounded too 80's. I would really hope they dont change the mix and the gated reverb on the snare. Adler made that sound really work. Plus it was relatively subtle for the era. I agree, that's just a personal wish I'd have as a weird audiophile. To be completely frank, I'd just prefer to have Appetite in a higher quality format and also I'd imagine there would be some never before professionally recorded live tracks or demos. And yes, I concede this is a sell out. But I don't care. You re-release one of my favorite albums of all time as a box set and I'll be the first in line to buy it. Yup, I'm a sucker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He/they tried. Appetite is possibly the best hard rock album ever made. You could give A+ effort your entire career and not match it. In fact 99.9% of the bands in history haven't matched it. Illusion albums were pretty damn good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
