He quite clearly said he had been “working on different stuff on top of original music for Guns N Roses and also the Conspirators”. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SilverMachine 18 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 That does seem somewhat promising. He offered it up as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GoForJMark 701 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 poster on reddit: MustardTigerPOW For sure. But this was 3.5 years ago, when hopes of some sort of creativity were still high. Neither I, nor anyone else I went to the 2017 show with, bought tickets for this year's shows. I would love nothing more than to be proved wrong. Seriously. I grew up with this band, Appetite was the first CD I bought. I was in the queue on UYI release day. I'm one of the few that loved Chinese Democracy. Hell, I even quite liked 'Rock the Rock'. It just sucks that all we have got since 2008 is merchandise. flebeis Don’t give up just yet. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gnrcane 444 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Even if they had new music ready to be released (which they don't), it makes no sense to put it out now. The money is all in touring and new music can't sell tickets when they can't have concerts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sydney Fan 1,962 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 15 hours ago, allwaystired said: I think you probably have to have the memories of the thrill of them in the 1980s/1990s in some ways to really appreciate them. Sure, you can watch videos, look at pictures etc, but it's difficult to describe how much they mattered back then. For myself, and a lot of others here I would imagine, they gave us an identity and a passion. They were absolutely everything you wanted, for a few years back then. They were of the time and captured our young minds, for sure. It's also why we're still here giving a shit really. If you weren't around then, and didn't experience that, then I think it's pretty natural that that magic isn't there. The excitement of seeing pictures of them in music magazines, of taping things like Paris from the TV and wearing out the video tape, being able to finally hunt down and find a t-shirt and feeling so thrilled to wear it, all that stuff. It was all special....and all of the time. If I hadn't been around that I'm not sure how I'd feel about the band now. I'd probably view them much as I view something like The Who to be honest - with detached indifference and distance, but a general view that they had a few good tunes back in the day. So you've got all that......but with this agonizing thing just under the surface that you KNOW they have things you;d love to hear gathering dust and that they have so much potential to bring you something you'll enjoy at a different stage in your life but won't release or do it. It's fucking mental really. This was all me when i first heard them in 88 when i was 13 up until my early 20s. I felt there was a band that represented "me". The poster is right, its hard to describe what it meant to a fan from 87 to 93, and reading interviews after about the illusion followups. There was no youtube or any social media. When joining the bands fan club, and buying merch, was filling out a form and posting overseas and god knows how long it would take to get a response.. Going to newsagents and spending hours reading interviews in different magazines. It was a different time and the band were just larger than life. With social media and information at people fingertips, its removed the romantacism of how we look at bands and artists. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jamillos 1,888 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Since these guys are substantially old-school, there’s always this possibility that they/Axl won’t want to release anything until they can immediately start touring it… There, I said it. If that’s the case, we’re in for at least another year of silence, another year of pain, another year that’s gone forever and we’ll never have again. I hope to fuck not.

AxlSlashthebest 245 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Let's be honnest .Slash is a good guys. The men ask him what he was doing during this spécial période and he said " working on original music for GNR" why he will lie. U will tell me that it's not him who decide but Axl ? but who knows better Axl than him ? so if he do that it's because he know something could happen. Or maybe he said that to put a little presure to Axl. But for sure him and Duff know better Axl than us so if he work since 4 years on some music for GNR I trust him? Also the pressure to put one or 2 CD with the big 3 is a lot. after AFD and the 2 UYI. Can u beleive ???? u need to have a mazing song specially because Izzy is not here to help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amaya 230 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Oohhhh, I am going against popular opinion here. I am not doing “Read the room,” no. Lol. I just dont GnR going there with the three of them doing new music. Nothing can top what was. Slash us very busy working on MKandS, the Conspirators. See his and his lady’s Insta.

DurhamGirl 446 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 He quickly mentioned GnR because he knew he was going to be asked and then what he said was prettty generic. If there was something why not just say. I dont think there has been a solid indication that new music is going to be produced 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
