Daedalus

^ ha, he's definitely not attractive. But he's a great actor; I can't imagine anyone else playing the role of Louis Litt (one of my favorite characters).

All step back, I'm 'bout to dance... The greenback boogie.

I like lawyer-kind-of series, and Suits are the best of them all. Really well written and great/complex characters.

One of my favorite sitcoms.

He's my favorite current GN'R member (not counting Axl). I really like his sound + he definitely has skills.

I always got the impression that Axl thought he could top the success of old guns with his new line up and that he expected Slash to come crawling back, a failure without him (Axl). That way he could lord it over Slash and all the power would lie with Axl in the relationship.

Funnily enough, almost the exact opposite happened.

I've been reading one of Duff's old interviews (from '99 I think) and I got the impression that he was sure that Axl's new lineup would be a failure and he would beg the old bandmates to come back sooner or later...

Bat Affleck

I didn't realize people disliked Ben Affleck so much.

I like him, but can't imagine him as the Batman... it's like Jackie Chan would play the role of Don Corleone.

Terrible idea! But anyway, better than George Clooney in his batsuit with nipples.

The tone of the album changes a bit with ‘’Paradise City’’.
We had a manager courting us at that time, and she gave us a ride to San Francisco to play a gig with Jetboy. While heading back in the van, we started writing ‘’Paradise City’’. It started off with those basic chords and then the melody, and I remember writing the words. Originally it was ‘’Take me down to the Paradise City, where the girls are fat and they got big titties’’ [laughs], which are changed into ‘’where the grass is green and the girls are pretty’’.

When was the synthesizer part added to the song?
That didn’t come in until Axl was putting his vocals down on the record, so I had no idea about that until we got to the mixing stage. All of a sudden there was that part. Being the guitar purists that we were, Izzy and I were like, ‘’whoa, whoa, whoa!?’’ But Axl won that battle, so it stayed on there. All things considered, it was never that big of a deal, but it introduced a certain electronic thing that didn’t fit well. Axl had a tendency to do that from time to time – to bring it in on the back end.

4) The Godfather

5) Lethal Weapon

The Who - We Won't Get Fooled Again

"Everyone took the fun of everything"

What fun? Of holding the songs back for 10+ years?

It's just one "new" song... and at least it made the GN'R community a bit more alive these days.

I think it's a good thing that it leaked... it put Guns N' Roses back on the radar for a bit.

I can't believe I haven't seen this thread yet. Thanks Marc.

The Kinks - You Really Got Me

Lost

I've never liked it much.

But listening the live version from '86 - it's kinda catchy/cool song.

Thanks for the link. I'm not finished watching it but...

Del talks about leaks: 36m15s

talks about Slash and Duff: 54m35s

He's telling a story about him in Germany at around 1h10m40s.... I don't know if I heard right but did he say "nazi" when talking about the police? Pretty stupid to use that term....

About the release of CD: 1h13m10

About autobiographies: 2h19m20

Thanks.

I hope they will play live any of these 2 versions.

The same as now... Sweet Child O' Mine, Don't Cry, Paradise City, November Rain, Knockin' On Heaven's Door.

The Rolling Stones - Moonlight Mile

"Kindly go fuck yourself. Oops, wrong recipient." Me, 1st thing this morning. Dont text before coffee. iiii]; )'

He posted this on FB/Twitter.

I really don't think Axl and Slash are texting each other.

Is it ok to ask Team Brazil for a link?

Please do

I'll Facebook message Beta and Nando letting them know that I really like the song. Positive feedback should hopefully be welcomed.

I did it too

Ha, great idea!
