there's a video recorded. on the video rick is confronted by a axl N' fernando stooge, a security person, and a police officer. that's going too far. this shouldn't happen to a fan. and what rick leaked if he leaked wasn't leaked publicly. so he can't face charges. the squirrel dude leaked publicly and faced major problems. rick didn't. he just wanted to enjoy a guns n roses show. it's sad axl N' fernando go to these lengths to hurt the fanbase.

They're not hurting the fanbase. As a fan, I'm delighted these tracks have leaked. But Axl is probably livid. He's a perfectionist, he doesn't want his work circulated in an incomplete form, and he could make a pretty good case that leaks of Buckethead-era tracks that might be under consideration for a new album would negatively impact on that album's sales. He's banning someone he sees - not unreasonably - as a thief. Is he supposed to greet the guy with open arms?

nvm, got hold of it. Looking forward to the inevitable remixes of "Shankler's Revenge" and "I'm Sorry" using the Rock Band vocals...

God damn, Devious Bastard is a tune.

#635 Re: Guns N' Roses » List of leaks of complete songs with vocals (ones that weren't on CD) » 368 weeks ago

Nah, Eye on You isn't complete. The "mack daddy" stuff is meant to be a background element laid under some actual sung verses, like the low-register "Nightrain"s Axl sings under the Nightrain outro solo. The "ah-ah"s are guide melodies, like in Quick Song.

Eye on You - RM 2
Nothing - RM4

Bit of a stretch to call them complete songs with vocals. Eye on You has the choruses and placeholder verses, Nothing has one phrase repeated over and over as a placeholder.

I was gonna listen but I can't even find the damn thing now. My phone is a mess of leaks.

Can't wait to finally get all this stuff properly sorted and filed on my laptop.

Listening to disc 4 with the Raiders game on in the background.

It's a gigantic pain in the arse, isn't it? I spent half an hour fiddling about in iTunes renaming the files. The only small mercy is that bloody Apple Music didn't overwrite the files with the album versions like it did with the old demos...

#639 Re: Guns N' Roses » DJ Ashba Recalls GN'R Fans Insulting Him After Taking Slash's Position » 369 weeks ago

I'm, like, 'I never was trying to be Slash.'

Mm-hm. Then why did Ashba only wear the Slash-wannabe top hat in GN'R? Why did he tailor his look to an approximation of Slash's, from the hat to the Les Paul with the cigarette burns on it? Everything about his stage persona in GN'R was meant to look and feel like a dollar-store version of Slash. But where Slash did all those things instinctively, Ashba's stage persona was contrived from the get-go. That, I think, is what rubbed people the wrong way; the fact that it was all calculated, you could feel there was something off about it.
