I believe that the rumour about Fernando being the source of some of the leaks started from that interview he did with a Brazilian fan site in 2001, where he said that he was letting his friends listen to the songs:
Fernando: I've listened to the new record, and I can say that all the songs are beautiful, not even one track is filler. The record may have 16 or 17 songs and they're all very strong. I don't say this because I work for him, or because I'm his friend. My friends, for example, whenever they listen to any of the songs, they always say it’s very good. "Catcher in the Rye," "That's Called the Blues," "Chinese Democracy," they are all very beautiful.

I haven't come across any further hints that support this rumour either in the 105-page pdf or elsewhere though.
I've also seen speculation that the leaks of later demos with Bumblefoot (Silkworms, OMG, Going Down) were sourced from Fernando's friends who he shared the files with, but I don't know about any evidence for that either.

Vanessa seems to have taken Beta's place as Axl's personal manager/assistant in the last few years. Beta is still around as "support", not as official manager.

Interesting looking at that lawsuits, Kat appears to be represented by Zach Rosenblatt. I assume with a surname like that he is a relative of Eddie Rosenblatt - Former President/COO and co-founder of Geffen Records.
I think it's a fairly common surname.

It's fascinating. The first things that jump out at me there.
2 - The band is comprised of Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagen. Is that official? So Richard, Frank and Melissa aren't actually in the band, they're just hired as touring muscians on an ad-hoc basis?
Axl, Slash and Duff are the partners/shareholders in the band (it has been affirmed in other litigation documents involving GN'R). The other members are in the band, but they're employees.

One of the Reddit mods is allegedly a member of TB or affiliated with them. I'm not surprised they would shut down convo on this or ban people for mentioning it. Did they ban Rick? I know he asked Fernando on there about it, fair play to him for that
He is someone from the PR company that manages GN'R's social media.

Does anyone have the ability to post a short summary? Is that GNR saying 'no'and moving to dismiss the claims against them?
It's the original lawsuit against Kat by GN'R (the touring entities). GN'R sued her first, because she registered her photos with the US Copyright Office as owned by her. GN'R claims that according to the contracts she signed, she has no ownership rights over the photos. It also says that Kat tried to sue them back in March (and indeed there is a filing in the legal databases), but the lawsuit was dismissed then because of some technicality (it wasn't filed properly).
So now Kat counter-sued saying that there was a period when she wasn't under contract so she owns the pictures she took during that time and that Fernando harassed her sexually on top of that.

The fan who heard the whole thing and recorded the two snippets also said that there were some keyboard-heavy parts.
#28 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General and Monsters » 82 weeks ago
Those two certainly don’t. Are they from the same soundcheck as the clip Clear posted?
The shorter clip from Meegan's Instagram is from a later date, but the fan who recorded the two longer ones was confident that it was from the same song he heard.
#29 Re: Guns N' Roses » The General and Monsters » 82 weeks ago
There were two more clips from that same jam/song that was played at soundcheck last year and they don't sound like Monsters (or The General) at all:

Dude, it’s not that big of a deal. Axl said “I’ve been hit by a truck…” the kid said “you were hit by a truck” you can take that any way you want. And it’s not an alleged quote, Axl said it
It was definitely a poor choice on the kid's part, whether he intended to direct it at Axl or not.
I said "alleged" because it was hearsay, not a direct quote from Axl:
COLLEEN COMBS: Axl told me, "I've been hit by a Mack truck and the license plate said 'Seymour.'"
