again, I hold no hope for new music unless Slash and Duff work on Axl's existing vault. It really only needs to be Slash as he will be the big selling point. Where is the time going to be to do this? Divorces, AC/DC tours, huge shows across the world. It is simply money making time boys. New music won't make any money no matter who plays on it so it gets put last.

I guess it is best to enjoy what we have.

they have tons of shit they could release...just as Zep, Dylan and The Stones did....you hold your cards in your back pocket until you need them.

Well, it is a cash grab but I can live with it since it is being so well run and the shows are killer.

Apex, yep, any new music going forward will need Slash even it is Chinese era material. The ship has sailed on CD 2 unless Ax and the label decide to put out a huge boxset and be done with it.

All I know is that there were contracts drawn up for the second album release before Chinese was released and well????.....best bet is we get a few new songs on a new compilation around x-mas. Gonna go with MSL on this...

Smokin', I think the cd era is well behind us....now is the cash cow era. Good luck getting any new music from any new lineup.
