#301 Re: Guns N' Roses » Richard Fortus Gretsch Guitars Instragram Q and A » 330 weeks ago

What I meant was, I don't think Fortus got what fans were trying to get him to read in terms of Hardschool. Like it went over his head, I'm sure he's heard since it was soundchecked. However he wouldn't have been on that demo and I don't think Fortus frequents the forums.

He does however seem to be aware it's the Axl, Slash and Duff show. Thia is just my interpetation.

Rough transcript if not video will probably come.

Hopefully someone uploads it on youtube or posts a link to a stream.

Paraphrased selections:
- Says he doesn't want go talk about a new album, cause he doesn't want to spoil surprises.
- Is asked how did he last so long in gn'r, says don't piss anyone off.
- Is asked about when did Axl tell him about Slash/Duff coming back, say Axl didn't tell him about it.
- Someone says new album doesn't exist, Fortus says okay
- Someone gets him to read out your too hardschool (Don't think 4tus realizes what it is).

That's it really... mostly just him trying to talk about guitars.

Was there ever a point early on it was supposed to be 1 album?

For starters, I wanted to hear 'Why Do You Look At Me When You Hate Me?'.

Imagine my surprise when hearing Get in the Ring. It was pure cringe.

There's a single disc called Axl's advance copy included with the UYI Q discs. It's mostly finished uyi 1 tracks (demo quality sound) with Get in the Ring and a few others, however Get in the Ring for some reason is an instrumental. Which means it was finished much later than the other tracks.

Also Ain't Goin Down is included. Ain't Goin Down is deff not a demo. Though tbh it would have needed different lyrics not to be b side material.

Didn't someone claim years ago it was supposed to be 4 albums originally? ...Or was it that Axl wanted 4?

I hate these 'album' box sets. It's become a cash grab. Just release a box set for the band as a whole and be done with it. Just look at the Pearl Jam 10 or Nirvana In Utero remixes, they sound pretty much the same. Even In Utero, Steve Albini handed in a muddy album which the label was rumored to have trashed and said 'There's no hits' and it was fully remixed.

What happened, it comes out, and to me, its still pretty similar.  UYI would be interesting, but I'm not really interested in hearing many of the songs again, and outside of any legendary remixes or rerecordings, it couldve been morphed into 1 Guns box set.

UYI's an interesting one though, 'cos Slash has alluded to an early version of the album without all of Axl's layered production stuff on top of it. I'd be curious to hear what that sounds like, and that'd cheerfully fill up a disc of material. Plus there's a (slim) chance there could be early demos of stuff like TIL, Fall To Pieces etc from the UYI sessions.

There shouldn't be any copies of that This I Love according to legend, although an earlier version of Speed Demon from Slash's Snakepit (Then known as Nightcrawler) maybe?

#306 Re: The Garden » Anyone use Reddit? » 332 weeks ago

I don't use reddit and the GN'R reddit is a mess. There's a few people that use discord more, but it's a little more unjoined and off topic. The only reason I really frequent discord myself tbh, is for leaks news and there's not much news anyway.

Evo is what it is. I think the opportunity to save Evo was lost years ago. I'll steer away from the issues with The Garden, but in terms of Guns... nothing's happening and it's going to be awhile before there's another tour (repeat). Covid is swinging a sledge hammer at the touring industry and the band are almost in their 60's.

I don't think Evo will still be around in 10 years (with any form of life) even if the band had dropped a new album.

With the touring industry potentially in its death throes and Live Nation making a bunch of changes, we may have seen the last of GNR.

I doubt this the end, but yeah.. that next stadium tour is going to be a while.

NITL regardless of what anyone thinks was one of the 3 most sucessful tours if all time.

If there isn't a new album, it'll be interesting how long this line-up (Axl, Slash and Duff) hold together without it raining cash. Though it's not like an album that sells millions is possible anyway.

On the book, I still think it's a good thing it was pulled or delayed (for himself). I think he would have opened the door to all kinds of accusations against the rest of the uyi line-up and himself by women in those lines.

Anyone got a stadia, what's the quality like?

#309 Re: Guns N' Roses » Matt Sorum's book leaks online. » 334 weeks ago

Matt buries Weiland in the book, but claimed a few years back that they made up before his death. There's nothing in the book about it

Also the times Axl ran into Matt post 90s, not mentioned.

Oh and as an update on the book itself, he said on twitter it'd be out next year recently. Various sections of the music press claimed it was delayed a few months before the leak anyway.

So perhaps, instead of this being blocked... it was decided that there should be re-writes and it be fleshed out a bit more? Just a possiblity.

If he was invested in the project, it would be a good idea to look at the feedback from the leak and see what's missing.
