Better is fantastic, you're crazy!
But yeah, it's a hard song to sing live. Unless they are going to repackage CD, which I think would be lame, they can drop it from the set list. It sounded like he was struggling on the Hard School clip.
Slash butchers better, and Axl sounds awful on it. its a great song but they should drop it

It's Riki Rachtman, he was host of Headbangers Ball, was a good friend of Axl's back in the day
he was also in the nov rain video

The other very possible scenario is that they release another cover's album at some point...
Even if its a long album, F them putting covers on it.
Would you really rather have them put on two covers and leave off something like Elvis and Zodiac? Or Rebel,and Quick Song?
If they drop a new album we dont know when the next will be, we should want all the new gnr songs possible without covers because it could be the last.
I thought you didn't want them doing Chinese tracks?
I don't but that is what they are doing. So if they are going that route put them all out and no covers.
Id still take a solo Axl album with all the CD leftovers with the BH era of the band, then a fresh new album with no covers written by Axl Slash and Duf, but with as many CD left overs as there are, doubt we will ever get more than 1 or 2 songs written new by Axl Slash and Duff

Plus KOHD was already on Days of Thunder, so it wasn't needed on the album

last thing we need on a new GNR album are cover songs
I mean technically slash and duff are doing covers of the BH and Finck songs
But lets not waste a spot with any non GNR songs

And silkworms HOB is way better than Absurd.slash always butches all the CD songs he plays live. Not sure how you think slash elevates it.
Just cant wait to hear him totally ruin songs like Zodiac and Quick SongHaven't heard the full rehearsal. If you can hook me up.
Generally I agree with you about Slash on CD songs. I have yet to hear a solo he does not butcher there. On the other hand I do like what he did with Silkworms, turning it into a proper rocker instead of just an experimental b side. That intro I hear on Hard School is also better than the demos just by the way it sounds. It can go either way I think.
There's a full rehearsal of Hardschool?!
yes without Axl

My thoughts too. I'd rather have the stuff that was written about how they all hated each other. That at least had some fire behind it at the time. Same with whatever things they recorded instrumentally in 94-96, they had a lot more to prove then.
60 years olds inspired by reunion payoffs and divorces? Not so exciting.
So all the other bands that are huge don't have things to write about either lol
If Axl, Slash and Duff cant find anything to write about then they should just hang it up.
Its crazy the excuses some GNR fans make for GNR.

Really makes me want to hear Slash on Hard School.
You didn't hear the full soundcheck from a couple of weeks ago?

He has a treasure trove of music, he's not taking forum advice about what he ought to do with it. I mean, to get upset about any of this is just baffling. Perhaps is a great song, and I'm excited to hear what they do with it.
And now Slash and Duff are just hired Axl collaborators since all they are doing is covering BH, Finck's and Tommys parts instead of coming up with their own songs for Axl to sing on.
That is the biggest issue. After all this time Axl, Slash and Duff get back together and instead of writing new music together, they are just re-doing Axls solo work.
How do you know they haven't? They all brought shit from their old bands anyway. What does it matter? Richard has said they're doing what they always did, passing demos around. We have no idea what they've worked on. Axl wasn't going to ditch music he spent a good portion of his life working on. Audioslave was a lot of Chris's solo stuff. Fall To Pieces was created for GN'R. This has happened all through rock n roll. Grace Slick got the Airplane gig because of White Rabbit, which she wrote with another band.
This is the dopiest stuff to be outraged about.
If slash and duff actually wrote music with Axl you don't think that would be the first single dropped instead of a CD outtake that is from 99-00? the other song on the set list is hard school again another song not written by slash or duff from 99/00. How exactly is that dopey?
why does it matter? Because the songs are not written by slash and duff and the are 20 years old at this point.
the whole point of a reunion was for an album of Slash, Duff and Axl songs not Slash and Duff redoing the CD era songs with 20 year old Axl vocals.
As for Axl not ditching those old songs yeah is why he should have just released a solo album before the reunion, then started to write new songs with Slash and Duff.
But sure its really dopy to think it would be better for an album written by Slash, Axl and Duff rather than Slash and Duff jut putting their stuff on 20 year old songs they had nothing to do with lol
