Pretty solid set list though with the two new songs, Dead Horse, DOTF, etc. I feel like at least those two haven’t been staples at most shows.

Yikes.... it's exhausting just looking at the list.

It's just too much. This isn't 1991.

It'd be fun to speculatively put together a setlist that's 1) about an hour shorter and 2) plays to Axl's strengths. Lots of that lower-register stuff and just the absolute essentials (SCOM, Paradise City etc) from the higher register material.

If they do release the 6 songs as a 'package', surely Monsters gets an official release and hopefully studio versions of the Seeker and Wichita. How difficult would it be for them to record those 2 covers? A weekends work tops. Would be nice to have studio versions of those 2. That could almost pass as an album. Call it "Not in this lifetime" have it mastered evenly (some songs remixed hopefully) and there's the GN'R reunion album. Children of the Revolution makes it 10 songs.

While it would technically be a weekends work, we saw how sensitive Axl is about releasing recorded stuff these days with the Schenker  album. He did multiple takes and still would only allow 1 out of 3 songs he featured on to be released, and to be frank I understand. There were so many layers placed over his voice, and you can still hear how weak it was underneath.

I remain astonished that he hasn't started using AI as a fix for any vocal issues, in-studio at least. It'd be the work of an afternoon to train up an AI on all his isolated vocal takes from the 80s and 90s, and then they could slap it on his actual vocals as an effect. I mean, fucking YouTubers have already used the basic principle to whip up some fairly convincing stabs at the idea, and they're not working with isolated master tapes.

Sure, it'd be "trickery," but in a world where Roger Taylor and Mick Fleetwood are hiring session drummers to create the illusion that they can still bash away live, I imagine multiple aging singers are already considering it.

He does a lot with legacy acts but I think that performance has more to do with his connection to Ozzy.  Guy seems to insist on playing on stuff, though. I vaguely recall a Duff interview when Ordinary Man was coming out talking about Watt playing some guitars on the album and it sounded a lot like how he would talk about Frank, so i wonder if that would be a sticking point (outside of Axl’s obvious preference for producer).

Well, he worked with Duff (and Slash) on Ozzy's album. That live line-up was basically the "house band" for Ordinary Man plus Post Malone (who'd already collaborated with Ozzy). So yeah, it looks like more of a tribute thing. Still, there's a connection there.

Huh, wonder if they're eying Watt as a possible producer for future GN'R material?

If anyone still needs something just make a request.

Yup, I'm still after both tracks.

#8 Re: Guns N' Roses » Atlas » 20 weeks ago

Atlas weirdly reminds me of a Smashing Pumpkins song. Something about the guitar lick in the left channel at 0:31 that screams Billy Corgan to me.

#9 Re: Guns N' Roses » Nothin' » 20 weeks ago

Nothin' is an absolute banger. Really come on from the demo version.

#10 Re: Guns N' Roses » Nothin' » 20 weeks ago

Oh well, maybe if the digital files are floating around in the ether they might leak.
