I know I'm probably the only one, but I really hope there's a studio version of Wichita Lineman. That's the best Axl has sounded since 2006. Probably one of the most emotional things he's performed, imo.

Agreed. And why couldn’t they include that as a track on this Hard Skool release instead of two more songs we don’t need live versions of.

It‘s sad that Angus didn‘t want to record an album with Axl. That was the only chance of new axl vocals we had i guess.. and to think some people thought it would delay a new gnr record (in 2016-2017)...

The reason the physical version is months away is because the band sent them to press when the streaming release was confirmed
Reason for that?
Avoid leaks and (assumption on my part) the band (Axl) was tinkering with it to the last minute.

That's what I thought otto, and while I can understand that they were trying to prevent a leak, I still think it's fucking stupid

I just got an email saying I’ve been refunded $12 for the vinyl purchase with no explanation. Anyone else get this or know why?

Edit: NM. Management has heavily discounted the costs of physical media on the site. Wonder why

I didn't get a discount. That's weird.

Because it's not selling.

More than likely, only a percentage of forum junkies bought anything and that's a thousand people tops.

That's nothing in the grand scheme.

Hell...if they really haven't manufactured any of these yet, they might cancel it due to no demand.

This is why I'm against half assed measures. Go big or go home.

Nothing good was going to come from releasing a single online, not promote it, and then fans wait 9 months for a physical copy.

Not trying to hijack a thread, but does anyone have the demo version available for comparative purposes. My computer is being tweaked right now and I've all but forgotten the demo version after spinning the single so many times.

Spot on. And let’s face it compared to their touring revenue/income this is just just chump change.

For gods sake get some professionals in who know what they’re doing if you’re going to do an album.

Whoever ordered the end of tour cake did a good job though!

Did you order like straight away when they went up? The vinyl went up at like $25 or $30 (can't remember which) and then an hour later was changed to $18, so probably got put on the store with an incorrect price.

I just looked on the site and the price is the same that I paid and I only bought 3 hours after the page went up.
