Are Duff and Slash back in Guns n Roses full time now? Or are they just there for this tour? That would make a difference to how much they are paid.

I don't think the casual fan really cares that much. They mainly want to see Axl and Slash together again. Duff is the third most recognizable member - so that's an extra bonus for most.  Only us die-hards really care that much about Izzy/Adler.

Most of the whining and moaning I see on music forums are by people who wouldn't go to a GnR show no matter who was involved. "It isn't GnR without Izzy!!!!" - says random poster who wouldn't by a ticket if Izzy was touring with GnR.

It's cool that Adler is making some guest appearances.  Would be nice if Izzy, Gilby and Sorum all showed up at least once.

Would love to see a new album from this band.  I really think Axl should have released CD2 and did a small tour with the nu-GnR line up so they could get one last big paycheck.  Then a classic line-up reunion (including Izzy/Adler) comes back in 2017 with a new album and reunion world wide tour.

Hillary is a liar that will do ANYTHING to get elected.

She is in scandal after scandal weather it be Bengazi, Emails, the Clinton Foundation, being for TPP before being against it, in bed with the shady DNC that rigged the election to her, and a huge fucking liar. That said she would be much better than Obama, but Obama is more likeable. Clinton comes off as a huge bitch. Obama seems cool, just clueless. Like he is smart and dumb at the same time.

Spot on!

That intro is awesome.
Better is an absolute classic, one of the best four songs from CD imo.

When you consider even DJ did a better remix....it would actually be kinda nuts to assemble a band like this and not do anything.

We are working on new stuff, but like I said a long time ago, I don't know if soon is the word.

I've got a lot of stuff together and I've played some stuff for Slash and Duff.

They like it, and they might be on it, we don't know (as of yet)...

I do want to put out more music with Guns N' Roses. I don't know if that has to do with Slash or not underneath the Guns N' Roses thing, but if he and I write something, or he wants to play on something that we have, that'd be great.

Axl has about 22 songs from the CD sessions (mostly written in '98-'01). Many of these songs are likely to feature vocals from that era. There should be some strong singing there.

Slash and Duff can adapt to CD material and improve upon it.

The downside is that everything aside the vocal tracks might need to be scrapped and re-done, to have it sound organic.

I didn't have to tell Slash anything about working on the Chinese Democracy songs or how to play them. He just embraced them and worked really hard on them.

What do you think is the most realistic outcome?
1. Completely new and fresh album from the boys
2. Axl has Slash and Duff add their magic to the 12 best remaining CD songs
3. A dual album. Axl turns in the 8 best remaining CD songs, and then Axl/Duff/Slash come up with four songs of their own.

If he didn't wanna do it why go down there in the first place...basically a waste of a day for all concerned

Pretty funny story tho

He probably thought that Axl would show up at the agreed upon time (and not a couple hours late) and that they would be working on more intensive work than Axl just recording a syllable at a time.

Obviously us GNR fans are known for digging for clues where none exist but at the same time, the band does give out hints, clues, etc. from time to time.

Now I am likely reading too much into this but I still find it an interesting choice for him to tweet. Duff often tweets what he is listening to. Last night I started catching up on my twitter feed as it had been awhile since using it and I saw this.....





As hardcore fans know, Down on the Street is one of two songs that were recorded during the TSI sessions but didn't make the album. Many fans have wanted to hear this over the years and if/when doing a Best of or a box set, this track would be an obvious contender as one of the unheard tracks being added to a compilation.

Is Duff's tweeting of this just a coincidence?

Probably just a coincidence. If it's one of his favorite songs, enough so that he'd inspire his band to record a version of it, then it's no real surprise that he'd occasionally listen to it!

But yes, it would be cool to hear their version of it on an upcoming box set!
