yup, I remember the time The Project started, back then it was rumored to be called Cherry Roses (because members of Buckcherry were involved or rumored to be involved)

well, the song was only played 3 times in the history, we all know the first performance at RIR3, the other 2 performances were at The Joint 2001. reportedly it was a huge mess at the first show, and it was flawless at the second one. hard to say, no bootleg probably exists.

I've always liked the early VR stuff. Set Me Free was a blast. Contraband was an awesome, underrated record. but Libertad era was kind of meh. uninspired, dull. I don't really think they could have ever moved to a GNR territory, because in the time of Libertad, GNR were a totally different beast already.

#544 Re: Guns N' Roses » Oh My God and the Thesis of Chinese Democracy » 412 weeks ago

this was definitely a shock. I remember this was not the first "newGNR" song I've ever heard, it was probably The Blues from RIR3, but this one was definitely a huge shock, maybe only comparable to Shackler's Revenge many years later.
and I must also appreciate the instrumental side of this song. altough very raw (and in fact considered a work-in-progress demo, not really meant to be released in this state), it already contains many "layers". both Finck and Navarro contributed a very wicked and twisted thing.
to be honest, I've never discovered who plays what guitar part in this song (4 guitarists played there already. FOUR!), but it's so damn cool.

The band's drummer may be a cool dude. But he is a shitty drummer.

yeah, Josh Freese or Brain might technically be superior than Frank. but on the other hand, this is not a rocket science, but a fucking rock band. not everyone in the band is supposed to be a monster like Mike Portnoy smile

well, in the meantime, BFF was active with his solo albums (and I REALLY love Abnormal which came about half year before ChiDem, and has been recorded within a few weeks in his studio... he posted clips in the studio so one could follow the recording process... nice touch!). and DJ released 2 albums with Sixx:AM, too.

#548 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chris Pitman suing Axl Rose for unpaid 2011 wages » 413 weeks ago

+ everyone who was in the band during that time is not in the band anymore nowadays, of course with the exception of Dizzy and Axl. hell, they even had a guy in the band who came, toured extensively for 5 years, and left without even appearing at a studio track. another funny point of view is, that the four 2001 shows had totally different lineup compared to the current one, again except of Dizzy and Axl. weird shit.

#549 Re: Guns N' Roses » Does a YCBM demo with Adler exist? » 413 weeks ago

the only existing demo or rather pre-release YCBM comes from the Q-Sound tape. and that one is almost final, so no Adler.
some demo is supposed to exist from 1986, but no recording or even firm proof of it exists.

not sure if zero is more realistic than another zero, to be honest.
