  1. Instead of GN'R merchandise we have already got 10 fold over, how about we get the release of the Red Hand Alternate cd we were promised years ago instead?... that would be better... we really don't need another AFD t-shirt lol

    No I think the tee shirt's are fine if they issue ones that are more 2012, when people signed up they knew thery were getting tee shirts:

    Not only did we pay $50 for this crappy merch but us fans in Australia had to pay an extra $50 to get it shipped here.

    :rofl-lol:

    Glad I only paid the $11 shipping :shrugs:.

    Me too.

    There were two shipping options. You chose the more expensive.

    Yeah i realise that but at the time I thought the merch might be worthwhile getting sent express (my bad) I just tracked my parcel I should have it tommorrow.

    Let us know how you get on, unfortunately if people receive the appetite stuff, then things will end up getting pretty ugly

    "I've got a funny feeling" the AFD shirts have been sent but I just hope GC compensate for their mistakes.

  3. I am pretty happy with the way GN'R is at the moment.

    Velvet Revolver were a great band with Scott. Contraband is an amazing rock record.

    I think VR have "unfinished business". New music from them would be unreal!

  4. I wasn't gonna say anything but fk it, there's a guy that frequents the forums who filmed the entire Adelaide show and it's in great quality both audio and visually, and wanted big $$ for it without considering any lower offers

    call me bitter and nostalgic but I want the show and the guy is just enjoying waving the carrot

    I remember a bloke back in 2007 who also filmed the Adelaide show but want some big bickies for it. Maybe it's the same dude?

    What's an Australia?

    Same as an America but far less hot air. ;)

    :rofl-lol:

    haha this is what you normally witness on a train over here in auz lol

    :scared: Sheesh after listening to just the bit they filmed I'd say her tribe went walkabout & left her on the train for a good reason, imagine being married to her :(

    This chick is nuts but the fuckwit fighting with her is just as mad.

  5. Vanessa seems shy, saw her once in person up close but didn't want to bother her after the show... she walked off when her bf came to get her anyway.

    Yeah she is shy unless she knows you. It was nice to see her again in Hamilton last time around cause she knew us and gave out some big hugs :)

    She is VERY friendly and very pretty (shh don't tell Fernando I said that LOL)

    Gasp! A Secwet :xmassrudolph:

    Venessa is a lot of fun. We had a good ol time in 2007 in Adelaide. She is such a champion. I didn't pick her to be shy whatsoever.

  6. Do some of us think just because the UYI albums came out as a double that the next GN'R record will be a sequel to CD? Or is it because Axl said there is a few albums worth of material?

    that would be the best case scenario, as Axl said the next album/songs are 'darker and meaner in some places' soul monster/ the general/etc , so it would mean that the bucket material would still be a priority in getting out to the masses, as it almost follows along the same vein as CD.

    But most of what he said was mentioned almost six years ago. He alluded to the idea of releasing an album a year after Chinese Democracy in 2008, but obviously that didn't happen. He also gave a tentative release date for Chinese Democracy for March 2007, off by a year and a half. The man is well-intentioned, but his follow-through is horrendous. Not all of it may be in his control, as I imagine negotiations with the label/recording/mixing likely took longer than he had anticipated. Couple this with a revolving door of musicians who present themselves as band members and it's not a situation that yields efficient production.

    Yet the point is that you can't take what Axl said six years ago and still think it applies. Very little what he insinuated ever happened. Axl may no longer have any interest or motivation to release music that involves people who haven't been in the band for eight to five years. He's just as likely to be excited about new material he and Ashba have been working. The point is: we have no idea. So until Axl mentions something about releasing new music and what his plans are, it seems foolish to interpret what he said years ago and still consider it relevant.

    Cheers,

    Andrew

    Great post Andrew. Axl's intentions are good, but the follow through is indeed horrendous.

    As for the question as to why we believe the there is another album, the following titles have been confirmed. Axl intened to release it as recent as 2009, when he mentioned that Robin plays a "Stevie Ray Vaughan-type solo on one track, and how it's "meaner in some parts and darker in some."

    The General (Axl) Co-Written by Brain

    Atlas Shrugged (Axl) - May feature Brian May on guitar

    Zodiac (Axl)

    Thyme (Axl) Orchestrations by Marco Beltrami

    Quick Song (Axl)

    Silkworms (Axl)

    Soul Monster (Axl) Orchestrations by Marco Beltrami

    Beta's Barn (Confirmed by Chris Pitman, Mentioned it's his favorite track)

    Seven (Axl) Orchestrations by Marco Betrami, mentioned it's his personal favorite

    'Jackie Chan' (Axl)

    Down By The Ocean (Axl)

    We Were Lying (Dizzy confirmed title in 2004)

    Ides Of March (Axl)

    I do believe there is another album or 2 of the CD sessions but I don't think my question was worded correctly. What I am asking is do people think this is going to be another UYI type of deal where the records were linked? If so, why do we think that?

  7. So much for this band moving forward, producing new music and actually having some credit. I think tonight has sucked big time. Tell ya what let's tour with every past member of gnr this summer. I feel very sorry for Bumble, dj and Frank. So fuckin disrespectful

    What are you even talking about man? Brain was playing the bongos for fucks sake.

    And Finck comes out to play on one song and the band is now never moving forward and is doomed? C'mon man! :lol:

    Haha It's fast becomming an Axl Rose band now. He does what he wants and fuck the rest of them. Might just sell my o2 tickets and make a profit on them while i can. Sod this.

    Shut the fuck up.
