Re: What if the leaks (all of them) never happened?

I don't know that first night at Hammerstein was insane and filled with energy  5

Man, we're talking about 6 years with just boots of 2002, and if they did tour in 06, we still wouldn't have heard IRS, TWAT or BETTER, just the same songs. Plus, in that time with losing Buckethead it really would have hurt the morale. That TWAT solo did wonders for the BH fans and kept them interested.

If they did play them, then we'd still have the live boots like in 02, there is no way to know if they would or wouldn't have, can't say definitely either way.    It's hard to tell but the leaks have filled gaps of silence, that's defiintely for sure.

No offense gang.

Same here, so none taken.


but, with all that, we were still here, still waiting. no news, no nothing. and we'll still be here because it's a thing we do from our daily routine. eat, sleep, work, check the gnr board to see how people are doing.

Fair point. The "creature of habit" clause. If you go a few days without being at the forums, its like 8 hours without a cigarette.

In other words, very uncomfortable and not much fun....:haha:

But I bet the leaks helped build some hype for that tour. It's what made it look different from 01/02. That there was some music in some form to go with it.

to the average gnr fan the leaks did nothing. at the show i was at, when i was singing along to the new songs (even madagascar, that's been around for 4-5 years and on the vma's) people were like "wtf! how do you know the songs?"

so, all the leaks did was to get lurkers to finally register at the forums and start posting about real gnr news. not about axl's teeth (i'll never forget that one) or axl's shoes or cars or... whatever.

I actually think most of us would still be here. The GNR diehards are phenomenon unto themselves.

With no leaks, we would really have to rely on fucking Bach for information.  Thank God we have leaks.
