Are they this list from Universal and the release of Angel Down so we can hear Axl sing on the songs?

I knew we'd be in for another silent period.

I think the Japan tour alluded to that because it seemed that no one even really talked much about the shows compared to the other shows they did with the exception of Don't Cry being played was the only big highlight.

Am I missing anything else we should be looking forward to considering CD isn't one of them?

Well, I am too old to go trick or treating.  But living in Michigan, it may be too cold to do anything.  Besides, it's not as fun when it falls in the middle of the week.  This is the one holiday next to Christmas when it was more fun when you were a child.
