#1 Re: Guns N' Roses » Isaac Carpenter is the new drummer » 12 days ago
Good luck to him. I just hope that Isaac has better chemistry with Slash and Duff, than Frank did.
The drumming has always sounded off to me with Frank up there. Sometimes it even sounded like a train wreck…

Josh Freese could still be a possibility, even if it’s just these shows this year. Foo Fighters aren’t doing anything anytime soon, as far as I know. I think Grohl is still hiding from the public due to his infidelity.
I remain genuinely baffled that Grohl's infidelity is an issue. He's a rock star, for crying out loud, it's practically in the job description.
Yeah, infidelity is definitely a rock star thing. I just think that Dave has always portrayed himself as the nice guy or good guy of rock, and most definitely a family man. So this taints all that.
And while infidelity isn’t so much an issue, it’s weird for him to do it this late in his career with grown up daughters, who are also a little bit in the spotlight with him, and probably thinking “Dad… WTF???”
It’s kinda bizarre…
Speaking of bizarre - though in typical GN’R style, they’ve gone for NOT Sorum or Adler, but Duff's old Loaded band mate?
Hope he has better chemistry with Slash and Duff than Frank (n)ever did.

#4 Re: The Sunset Strip » Slash and Duff to play at Ozzy's "Back to the Beginning" show » 7 weeks ago
Shame Axl can’t make an appearance. But it’ll be interesting to see what Slash n Duff play.
#5 Re: Guns N' Roses » New Album thread 2025 by sp1at » 10 weeks ago
They have been on a break, plus the fires
However, DJ Ashba says Axl will probably take his time recording new material. Says he spends hours listening to things over and over
Slash and Duff have new material though for GNR, it's been sent
Obviously if any of the band read this, I'm happy for them to correct this, but you can see where we're at
Why is DJ Ashba chiming in on GN’R when he’s not in the band anymore? Is he secretly working with them or something…? 
#6 Re: Guns N' Roses » Slash on new GNR album: "We just haven't really got there yet" » 10 weeks ago
But Duff keeps saying things are “very positive” with regards to new music. So Slash must just be lying again…

Doesn’t work for me either. Hoping that sp1at just replies here instead
#8 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » SMKC #5 being recorded in November » 11 weeks ago
Oh, and apparently it’s all but confirmed that Elvis is back on production duties again for this. So at least it will sound better than SMKC4 did.
#9 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » SMKC #5 being recorded in November » 11 weeks ago
According to Todd, he recently mentioned the album is 80% done. I wonder how long it will take to come out after it’s finished, especially if this year is supposedly all about GN’R

And there's nothing happening this month musically speaking. They're all at home having a break until after New Year. Duff played some charity gig last week
Do you know anything about the rumours of 30 songs being worked on (hybrid of new and CD era), with Axl now recording vocals?
Nothing like that whatsoever. No numbers have ever been mentioned either
Duff has written songs and presented them to GNR, Slash has done the same.
There's been no mention of CD era songs. About a year ago there was mention of working on pre CD era songs, but there's been no further mention of that.
Those pre-CD era songs are what fascinate me the most. The 1996 version of Aerosmith’s Rocks that Axl mentioned, could’ve been a great mid-90’s GN’R album. Let’s hope those songs are still in the running for if and when a new album ever eventuates.
Wasn’t there even talk of revisiting the unfinished TSI songs at some point too - Down On the Streets and Beer and a Cigarette?
