Wonder what the demos are? A few interesting songs there too. I assume the Fall to Pieces, Nightrain etc are live versions. Sounds pretty good all up, but don't really wanna fork out for a 3rd version of the album.

There is also Mother Maria.
Perhaps there is more Live stuff?

That actually sounds like quite a reasonable rider compared to other extravagant and ridiculous ones I have heard about from other artists.

#1536 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl Rose - A-hole or hero? » 818 weeks ago
There are some good points in the article. The guy is a bit hypocritical in some of his statements though:
They had it all and could still be out there today, like every single other heritage rock band making money, touring Appetite for Destruction
^ Umm I seem to recall this has bascially been what has occured for over 15+ years. Axl has a few Chi Dem songs thrown in (with that number seemingly decreasing every concert). Plus keeping the GNR name is that also not an attempt to somewhat trade off past glories?
Slash is gone, playing American anthems to stadiums, selling guitars for Gibson, living up in every respect to the stereotype cast on him. Discussing reunions and his love for Axl. Duff is around, playing in second rate punk bands, writing for Playboy (he’s a journalist now don’t ya know) and still playing with Slash and Matt Sorum in Guns N’….sorry, I mean Velvet Revolver. He likes to discuss reunions occasionally aswell.
^ These guys have moved on and are doing their own things. Yet he derides them for it? Why? If they talk about a reunion these days it's usually in response to reporters continually asking them questions about it. Presumably the reporters simply acknoweldge that Axl is predominantly operating as a heritage rock band with a few new tunes thrown in, so they probably think why not be a heritage rock band with the guys who created the majority of the music that is played, so they ask about a reunion? That said I'm sure the old guys would be happy in the short term to be a part of a GNR nostalgia act.
Axl does not discuss reunions, he does not give interviews, he does not play national anthems to baseball stadiums full of 40/50 year old Americans who point and remember he was the guy who sang Sweet Child O’ Mine. He keeps the band fresh.
^ If fresh means continually rotating the band members then I agree that GNR is minty fresh! But if it's regarding releasing new music (and I don't mean songs that were recorded more than 10 years ago), plus recording music with your current lineup, I beg to differ on this point.
He doesn’t pander to press, to fans, to x-band mates, to record companies or to anyone who else who tells him what he should be dong. He’s nearly 50 years old and he knows very well what he’s doing and how he wants it done. he knows when he’s ready to walk on stage to give the best performance he can and he knows when his musics ready. The Press, managers, fans and no-one else knows this because they all suck off the ‘product’ he’s giving the world. if you don’t like it – fuck off, if you question it – fuck off and if you have a problems guess what – Fuck Off!
^ Well guess what, I think people are finally doing this. They are taking his "fuck you, fuck off" attitude and doing just that - hitting the road. Many hit the road years ago, but I get the sense that many long term diehards are finally deciding to fuck off too.
Rock N’ Roll is rebellion and Axl Rose rebels against pretty much every rule in the book, whether it’s the industry making them, Society making them, the fans making them or his band making them.
The problem with this is it has become cliched. Once upon a time if people wanted to be alternate or emo or not conform with the maintstream, then they would dress different, act different and generally not conform with society. But the funny thing now is in a strange type of way their efforts to not conform mean they end up conforming in another sort of way. They all dress the same, act the same, go shopping to look for clothes that make them look alternate etc. It's ironic that they end up conforming to another sterotype in an effort to be rebellious and nonconformist. Same thing with the rebellious rock n' roll antics - that schtick has just got old and cliched with many wannabe bands now using that party trick. So to try and use that as a justification is lame. It's just all too predictable. Besides I'm sure Axl doesn't act the way he does to try and be a "rebellious rock n roller", he acts that way because it's just who he is. So to try and use the rock n roll excuse as a justification for his poor behaviour is kinda funny.
Axl Rose is the last true hero of rock n roll because he’s the only one famous enough still telling pressure and rules to go fuck themselves and anyone that can’t see that has no business being a fan of rock in the first place. Fuck off and listen to Radiohead and leave Rock N Roll alone for people with some balls.
I agree that the current state of rock and stuff like Radiohead and much of the music today that is deemed "popular" simply doesn't float my boat. I agree Axl is still defiant and telling everone and everything to bascially fuck off. Yet he isn't doing anything! Where are his balls to continually record new music, where are his balls when it comes to leaving the AFD circle jerk behind him. He might be acting like an old school rocker but that's pointless if we don't get the material from him. It's just empty posturing otherwise. Hope I'm wrong and we get new music and good times and Axl can continue to kick us all in the nuts with some shit hot stuff, but so far he really has failed to deliver much past an AFD nostalgia act.

#1538 Re: The Garden » Post Your Pic Thread - Let's see what you look like! » 818 weeks ago
Went backstage at the Sydney Slash concert. Gotta admit it was not quite what I expected. Sadly I didn't get to talk to Slash directly - he was only there for about 15 minutes.
Did get to chat for a long time to Tony Montana who was playing bass on that leg of the tour. He was a top bloke!
I was pretty pissed by that time too, I can see it in my face 
#1539 Re: Guns N' Roses » Stinson Vents at Del James During Dublin Concert » 818 weeks ago
No doubt he still likes to talk about Axl any chance he gets. But it wasn't as much outright Axl bashing as I suspected.
#1540 Re: Guns N' Roses » Stinson Vents at Del James During Dublin Concert » 818 weeks ago
I totally agree with this part too:
The trouble is, that was then and this is now. And it’s one thing to want to sex-up your act, recharge the vibe, so that you can bring it to the people when you finally hit the stage. But when the magic backfires and all you do is piss off the ones that love you most – the fans – then something is very badly wrong.
