Gordon Comstock Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Regardless of what versions people buy, I hope everyone here has learned not to pay full price for GNR box sets. They've discounted the AFD box yet again because they still haven't sold them all. https://gnrmerch.com/collections/music/products/appetite-for-destruction-locked-n-loaded-box-set Super deluxe version is down to $50. I'll wait till the UYI vinyl box is down to $200-250 before I consider buying it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I copped when it was $399 with a 10 percent code, so I grabbed it for under $400 after tax. Still pricey, but honestly, the box itself is nice enough for me to consider it worth it. I have it in my bedroom on display. Looks awesome. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleJosh Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 There are no new vocals. They just raised the old vocals more in the mix. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. If you listen to the original very closely with inears, you can hear the harmonies. They've just been brought forward in the new mix so they stand out more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old_school_gnr_fan Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 On 10/30/2022 at 5:38 PM, RichardNixon said: I pre-ordered UYI I and II and the boxset. Amazon says I will receive UYI I on 11/30, UYI II on 11/11. No estimate on the boxset. Anyone else having issues? I got an email from Amazon stating the Super Deluxe CD Box Set would be delivered sometime between 11/18 and 11/22. That's a little disappointing, but Amazon usually updates their anticipated deliveries to an earlier date fairly often. As far as the limited edition vinyls, I don't know who the shipper's going to be on that. Was thinking UPS, because they were the carrier for my Locked & Loaded set in 2018. In any event, even if it ships on time, I have it scheduled to be delivered to the post office because I have to keep a box for mail. Post office is closed on Friday because it's Veterans Day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd totally buy a Ritz 88 blu-ray... I wonder how come that one has never been officially remastered and released. Does MTV have the rights to it or something? Amazing show, I used to watch it like every day as a teen. Edited November 8, 2022 by Sonic Reducer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRQ93 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 (edited) These shows are most of interest Cathouse 1989 - shot on film - one of the last full shows with Steven, too PA 1988 - shot on film Farm Aid 1990 - last original band show Rio 1991 - first UYI lineup show Paris 1992 - represents the peak of GNR’s popularity Argentina 1992 - great show Saskatoon 1993 - great show Belgium 1993 - great show Milton Keyes 1993 - great show, one of Izzy’s last until 2006 Argentina 1993 - last UYI lineup show / last show with Slash & Duff for 23 years I would pair some shows together like Cathouse 1989 with Farm Aid 1990, and the 1989 guest spots as bonuses Paris 1992 with VMAs 1992 and the Freddie Tribute as bonuses etc Edited November 8, 2022 by AxlRQ93 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's saying sold out when I'm looking at it on the site. the fifth picture on the website shows someone sitting on it. I wonder if there's people out there who dare sit on their AFD box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
