Well that ain't happenin.
That would be more like a "new" release wouldn't it?
Only reason it aint happening is because its GNR. Other artists release bonus content all the time. M.I.A. rereleased Kala last year with a holographic cover and a 2nd disc which contained a few unreleased tracks and remixes.
Hell, even VR added a bonus disc of covers to Contraband and that album was still selling like hotcakes. They didn't even need a new version in stores. They simply did it for fans.

I simply don't understand why you wouldn't just throw out a re-release with different artwork, a fixed up booklet and a bonus disc with a couple of new tracks maybe a live DVD. I mean shit what have they got to lose?? If they are sitting in the vault then they aren't earning a $ so just flick a couple of them out now.
But hey, they have missed every other ship that has sailed from the GN'R port so why would this be any different.
Re: What does your crystal ball see in the future for the Gunners?
gnr has never been a b-side or bonus track kinda band....you should be first to know that aussie...in all of gnr's releases how many b-sdes do they have? maybe a half dozen ?
Almost every single contained B sides, some(KOHD at the Marquee, LALD 91 VMA's, Don't Cry Demo, etc.) that couldn't be found anywhere else. Some of those singles contained nothing extra, and I doubt it was a coincidence that those singles didn't sell.
Also, CD is the band's first album in the 21st century, where bonus content is even more important.
