As much as I hate the incompetent management I hope the song can be deemed a success and gets some good critic reviews.

All the cock teasing (soundchecks, cryptic messages, pics in studio) is backfiring as a result it their incompetent management

I can see why this is so difficult for Slash. He should just call their bluff after this tour. New record or no more touring.

Given how little is made from streaming these days you have to wander whether an album release would actually be more profitable for the band (if they all could be arsed).

If they do eventually find the motivation to get in a studio for one last hoorah then please please try to get Izzy, potentially Matt back in the frame. Steven to guest on a couple of tracks. do it before someone dies, and everyone then starts contemplating 'what if'.

Permission for Sky Dog to bring me back down to Earth!

Is it the promoters that suffer or do the band take a portion of the ticket sales? Either way I don't feel much sympathy, the band has had plenty of time and opportunity to do something.
