Universal have every reason to get behind the release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said this in another forum... I can't see how a re-recording would hurt. If it's not at the expense of anything else, would you really be upset if it is included? I might be in the minority, but listening to the re-recording of Appetite from 98-99 is an interesting thing for me. It might not stand up to the original, but it is still part of the history of the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm'a still buy it anyway thats actually good because it opens the way for similar boxes in the future for Lies and the Illusions, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegodasilva23 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Which years do you all think the shows will be from? If "early years" meant 1987-1988, the 1988 Felt Forum show would be great. But if it meant 1987-1993, I would like: - 1 from 1987 or 1988, the Felt Forum show would be cool - 1 from 1992, especially the Cologne show - 1 from 1993, the Munich show would be cool Which concerts would you like this box to have?

Stiff Competition Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 The date on that being friday is interesting. The countdown ends tomorrow but if it is a boxset, I wonder if they are pulling a surprise release and it will be in stores Friday and tomorrow is just the announcement. Third Man Records recently did that with the new sleep album and kept it completely secret until it leaked only 1 day before the release.

The countdown ends mid-day on the 4th in Japan and Australia. Early morning in Europe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense then. Either way, it is still a friday which is a music release day, not as much as a press release day (usually Monday or Tuesday) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess we’ll find out very soon! Anyways, we all saw Axls tweet about Tim Cook recently, are we to assume AFD Deluxe will not be streaming on Apple Music? Spotify? If not, that’s a hugely lost market and means the box set will only garner to hardcore collectors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNRfanMILO Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) Friday will only be the advertisement... There would be leaked pictures of the boxset all over the place if a worldwide release was happening in 2 days.
