Believe you buddy. What are the chances of one of us getting hold of these tracks?

I’ve listened to the podcast from Bird. I can’t see that he’s going to sell, assuming he does have other tracks. He was quite scathing of guns fans and unheard material. 

And that's what this really all boils down to. If you listen to his podcast, you see that he really doesn't think much of the GN'R fan base. I can't see the guy being in any sort of hurry to engage with GN'R fans again.

Where can that podcast be heard?

You should be able to just Google "Storage Diaries Podcast" and it'll come up. 

 

Edit-

I also wanted to mention that I removed a few posts from the thread just now. From my limited knowledge of the locker situation, I see absolutely no reason why anyone would insult Robert (the person who bought the locker to begin with).

LOL, he's not a hoarder. He's a guy who bought a locker and lucked into a bunch of unreleased GN'R songs. 

He then made some deals with GN'R fans who seemingly turned him off to wanting to deal with fans any further. 

I don't know the guy (locker owner). I've never interacted with him and I really don't have any reason to ever do so. So I have no reason to defend him. I'm just going by what I've heard of the situation.

There is definitely truth to this (not in reference to anything about to leak that I know of) A lot of stuff with Slash has been recorded already.

I love how some people get angry when someone has unreleased material and they choose to keep it to themselves. Like the fans are “ “owed” the material to leak. It’s very entertaining.

I could see Guns using the leaks as an excuse for no new music. But realistically new music probably wasn’t going to happen either way.

False

Nothing could be further from the truth. But please, enlighten me as to your position on the subject. I’m trying to understand why you’re upset.

Axl hoards unreleased for decades. People acquire this music and keep it to themselves. Why is it weird that fans would be angry with this?

So Axl is a hoarder now? 
 

I’m still trying to see your point as to how fans are owed this unreleased music to leak before it comes out officially? 

[Faxl Rows 117]

They aren't owed anything, but someone getting their hands on something has a chance to make a lot of people either happy or mildly interested for a bit. It's not morally right and blah blah blah, but it feels like the only sodding way to actually hear music sometimes.

The guy, Robert is just a locker buyer, it's how he makes a living. I'm sure if he was offered the right price he would sell. I don't blame the guy for making as much as he can tbh

I’m going to go on record and state that I was actually happy and relieved when the leaks happened. I thought it would finally cause people to keep their negative mouths shut and be a little more positive but as we can see the opposite happened. Whoever gets their hands on whatever it’s their choice to do whatever they want with it. A lot of people say “well maybe the leaks will push the band to release new material ASAP.”  When the 2006 leaks happened, that wasn’t the case. It didn’t cause a release to happen prematurely. The leaks weren’t planned like some people still believe.
The same goes for the forthcoming album. These leaks won’t make a band that was already on track to release new material release it sooner than originally scheduled.

Exactly my point! It’s up to the individual who has the goods to do whatever he/she pleases. People get so angry over nothing sometimes.

People want GNR leaks because Axl never releases anything. Axl has only had two releases in the past two decades, OMG and CD, and neither of them he approved being released. If he had his way there would still probably be zero releases. And you're seriously using the "you aren't owed anything" cliche? On to my ignore list you go.

Yes. You are NOT OWED ANYTHING. 
 

The “ignore” list thing is cute. I hope it brings you much joy. Too bad you’ll never be the first to know of any real “news” anymore.

Are we talking about the same “Alex?” Cause if so, he passed a away last week.

It's not the 1st time you try to talk like you know things. But yeah, seems kinda logical that "a lot of stuff with Slash" "has been recorded already" with Slash.

Yeah, if this is true it would seem to be in reference to mid 90s stuff with Slash, not necessarily something they came back to recently. Though it would be funny (and creepy) if over the years since Slash left Axl had used Slash's unused 1996 instrumentals to record multiple new songs. I remember some user here had said Axl had somewhat of a "crazy ex girlfriend" attitude with Slash during the breakup but that would be taking it to a whole new level.

From listening to the guy's podcast I got the impression that he's not even exactly aware of what kind of material he sold and he thinks it's from the 80s, because he doesn't know much about the band and has heard only about Zutaut's involvement back then.

700-800 songs? I call bullshit 

Why would you call bullshit lol  You have some of the lockerroom discs and see how many verisions of the same song there all.

 

That is all it would be, something like

Oklahoma V1

Oklahoma Vocals up

Oklahoma vocals down

Oklahoma drums up

Oklahoma drums down

Oklahoma w BH

Oklahoma wout BH

Oklahoma Freese

Oklahoma brain

 

etc etc

 

It would just be like 40-50 songs with 10 different versions of each.

You really cant see that.

This is the thing. Surely he would sell ‘if the price was right’ and any interested buyer wasn’t acting like a lunatic?

Actually - why have TB/GNR reps not ‘bought them back’?
