Maybe not in the same extent, though. I'm getting criticized for liking Slash in GNR more than any other guitarist, but I just don't care anymore at this point. I'm still blown away by his style, even on some of his takes on CD and I didn't like Finck to beginn with, especially live, why should I have changed my opinion by now? It's what it is and I have to deal with it. If I were you, I'd disregard and completely ignore anyone criticizing you for preferring Slash, as that's utterly ridiculous, of course. I mean, what the fuck. It's Slash. And if he's sloppy, that's cause he improvises, immerses into the solo. Or because it's not his song and he's bored. Anyway, Slash is the man. Anything else is just irony. 3 Quote
allwaystired Posted May 24, 2021 Posted May 24, 2021 Ok- here's a thought..... Would anyone have taken Slash not coming back in favour of a new album? I think, all considered, I would sacrifice the great times I had at NITL shows if it meant a new album. 2 Quote

I wish Slash hadn't gone back, I'd have saved money by not going to NITL and probably gotten more new music from Slash. I don't think it makes any difference who's in the band with regards to new music from Axl, I think the last 20+ years have proven that. 2 Quote

If the choice was that, or Slash returning, but nothing new ever? I'd honestly go with a new album with Ashba on. I realize this all totally hypothetical of course- I don't think for one second we'd have got a new album either way. 1 Quote

I'd rather have CD2 as it existed in 2014ish with Robin, Bucket, DJ, and Bumblefoot than it being messed with further by the current lineup. 1 Quote

allwaystired Posted May 25, 2021 Posted May 25, 2021 The ideal scenario for me would probably be: CD2 as it is, no re-records etc. Entirely new album from the current lineup. Then also some sort of release featuring all the offcuts from the CD era. Three things that won't happen, but I'd love it if they did! 2 Quote

Our best chance for original CD stuff untouched would be an eventual anniversary box set, which isn't looking so likely since the major fan base doesn't seem to care as much about that era vs classic era. 2 Quote

Yep, the interest in that era is really low, sadly. It's a real shame. 2 Quote

koldweather Posted July 8, 2021 Posted July 8, 2021 Its going to have something from Mexico 2016, well at least one song. the copyright tags which show what songs are in it shows twat We know the only time it was played in Latin America was 20.04.2016. It may end up having several different clips, but twat at least is from Mexico City. Quote
t-p-d-a Posted July 8, 2021 Posted July 8, 2021 the automatic tracklist for copyright under the video shows "Godfather Theme". "Sweet Child O' Mine Live Hard Rock Casino 2012" and "There Was A Time" 1 Quote

LlamaRenegade Posted July 8, 2021 Posted July 8, 2021 I'm happy with the amount of Chinese Democracy songs included in the selects so far, assuming the copyright in the description about TWAT is correct. It's nice to see that they haven't been swept aside in favor of songs we've all heard a million times. Do I really want to watch Slash butcher TWAT though? Not really. Quote

t-p-d-a Posted July 8, 2021 Posted July 8, 2021 i hope TWAT is from Mexico 2016. Axl sounds out of breath and Slashs Solo is LA LA but anway.. good to hear, nothin more I hope of more songs, maybe the automatic copyright system doesn't reconize all songs Quote

I'd be so happy to have Better from the second Chicago in 2016. It was so good and fan videos confirm it. Quote

I'm really surprised that Sorry and TWAT have had selects before Better, would be cool to have a good video of that one for sure. I actually quite like Slash's solo and the "new" intro is an added bonus Edited July 8, 2021 by ApacheChief42 Quote
