The vinyl must have 2 new songs then. That came out of left field.
I think the fact that it was leaked alongside The General would make me infer the leaker assumed (or even knew depending on the source of the leak) Monsters was going to be released as well. I don't see a hoarder unloading a treasure if they didn't know it was going to becom "worthless".

I watched part of the live show from last night too and Axl sounds good live right now
its too bad the tour is almost over
Dare I say he might actually be enjoying himself. Slash didn't exactly seem bored either during the song. Band has always sounded tight....except Frank eating 7 Adderall 30's before playing. I might be in the euphoric moment, but the live version seems head and shoulders better than the WFA edit that leaked.

Hopefully this puts an end to those still insisting “that is F iNcK playing on The General, not $la$h”
I was sure about Monsters. But was questioning General. I am no longer unsure. This should put the debate to rest. Axl didn't sound too bad either. Nice.

Turns out the calls were coming from inside the house. Sounds like mystery solved on who is playing guitar in the demos?

I don’t know about the locker leaks, but there was more material from the batch in 06
Most certainly. Rember the guy from HTGH that posted sorry lyrics years before we ever got the album. He definitely had source material that was after the village sessions.

No shit it all the leaks basically are from the village session era. Minus the remixes , Shacklers , Scrapped.
But you know this.
You know there are a bunch of uncirculated village session era dics.
The way you use certain language in your post reminds me of another individual.
I'm coming at you directly not trying to be rude but hoping you want to share with the community a proper history lesson.
We can all see that players at the table again. the last go around in 2019 wasn't what it appeared. The question is how the river card plays out this time.
Ps the Patrice documentary disappointed me.
If Monsters is infact Robin on there and not Slash it would not suprise me if it was from the Village sessions the ones without BH on them.
Even though I'm sure i hear Slash and Duff on Monsters....I'm an idiot. I agree with Dave, if this is an early demo, it predates Buckethead's contributions.

Brasky I don't know if you are a technician like Bret the hitman Hart or a solid hand in the ring like Deelow Brown, but I'll be damned if your hypotheses don't get my juices flowing. I'm glad you don't fear the reaper (or other painted faces) or consider yourself king of the offspring. You're a dragon of a poster and I hope you continue to live and post free. While this might not be the state of grace you imagined, your quips and contributions to this community don't go unoticed. Ugh I'm no good at being cryptic.

Edit: Nope. Answered my own question.
No, bc he just re did solos
Redid solos and a bunch of rhythm parts (notably CD verses). Pretty much exactly what Slash did!
Ron is such a great dude and was literally the only mouthpiece we had for the band post '06. Can't say enough great things about the guy as a person. However, his contributions were so unnecessary to the CD sessions. That's not a knock at him, but further proof that they should have pulled the trigger by 2006 at the latest. After hearing the village sessions and the '07 leaks, there is no reason this saga should have lasted as long as it did. But it is what it is and we don't know every detail, this is only my perspective as an obsessive fan.
With that being said, Ron's vision of writing new music together (you know..as a band) would have produced better results than him going back and adding more layers to tracks that were already on the verge of being over bloated.
No matter how divided the fanbase has been on various topics, i think we can all agree that pulling the trigger on the album anytime between 00 and 06 would have drastically altered the trajectory and success of nu guns.
