Title: Eddie Trunk Confirms that Better was not on "Trunk" CD
Post by: pilferk on February 17, 2006, 01:19:13 PM
I emailed Eddie this morning.  He confirmed that "Better" was not on the Trunk CD.

So the source of this leak is different.

I have an email I'll forward off to madison and jarmo.

OK now we have something here...

this adds to my suspicion that the leaks were intentional.  we get a clean version of an old, rough studio demo version of IRS, along with a short clip of a (mastered?) version of better...


HRMMMMM

Yep - coincides with the information I have.

Thanks for the legwork, Pilferk.

This is HUGE. Someone probably got a copy of this strip club tour cd Axl has been playing for a select group of people. That select group might be getting a little bit bigger.

I still find it funny that Axl mentions "better" last week and now its close to leaking out

When did he mention better?

Yeah! I also think this is too funny, or even weird to be happening now :nervous:

By the way, Eddie confirming this also means Eddie listened to that whole disc.  Probably made copies, too.

This is quite interesting. There's definitely something happening.

Post by: Pinball Wizard on February 17, 2006, 01:27:59 PM
When did he mention better?

In the rolling stone interview i think


Yeah, you're right...the weird is that before this interview, no-one had ever heard about this song title, and now, just a couple os weeks after that, the song is leaked!

This is too weird to me!!

The moral of this story:

Don't play your unreleased music at strip clubs.  :hihi:

when the hell did slash say songs would be leaked all over the net??? And there is nothing about cd being here in march no offical source


Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Confirms that Better was not on "Trunk" CD
Post by: nonlinear on February 17, 2006, 01:31:33 PM
I doubt that bettter came from the club in NYC.  it's too clean, and would've required a direct rip from the CD.  I'm sure the CD was under constant watch of axl's bodyguards.

plus, the fact that we have the old demo IRS along with the new (mastered?) better makes me think this is directly from management


Title: Re: Eddie Trunk Confirms that Better was not on "Trunk" CD
Post by: Mr.Intensity on February 17, 2006, 01:33:33 PM
I known this all along because "Better" would be such an easily recognizable name to a track and that song title would have started circulating a long time ago in regards to the Trunk show... but it never did.

 :hihi: good one.

I think it's very probable the leak was intentional

Post by: SLCPUNK on February 17, 2006, 01:36:08 PM
When did he mention better?

Among Rose's favorites are "Better," "There Was a Time" and "The Blues."

There's the quote for you :)

ahhh........it's all coming back to me now.

Truth but Still can be march..

I honestly believe Slash, I'm NOT sayin' CD is comming when he says, what I mean is I have big respect and love for the guy and If he says he "was told" by some liable source, close to the band that CD was comming in march I believe him... I won't blame him or bash him april the first if CD haven't been released yet. I trust Slash has basis for what he had said.

Just FYI, I've also sent an email off to Piazza through the Padres Media Office.? But they denied me (in a round about kinda way) and suggest I either write to him (via mail) directly through the team, or, if I could dig up his agent's info, write him through them.

I have the agent's contact info...but considering Eddie responded I'm not going to pursue that avenue directly.

This sounds like an intentional leak.? And judging from the reaction outside of us nutcases in here (i.e. the play on radio around this continent), it was probably a good idea.

I mean everyone at work knows I'm a huge GNR fan and 3 people came up to me today to ask if I knew a GNR song was leaked yesterday.? Was funny as hell when I played it for them.? Thanks SLC.? (Man, me thanking SLC, I don't even recognize myself anymore).? ?:hihi:

Isn't there a rumour going around that Axl said that he is upset by the leaks but everything will be sorted out when they release the album late March?

It was some dutch reporter who posted it in dutch and it came out to axl saying that this will all be fixed when CD comes out in March.

I know most of you dont care but I do .. if these songs arent from the trunk cd , and maybe came from a later demo cd or even a rip of the finished democracy then that means atleast some of buckets work will remain!!!!

Okay, 'Better' is leaked and isnt from Trunk-it sounds (from what little we've heard) mastered.
Someone did this intentionally.

I'm still seeing people speculate these songs came from the "Trunk" CD.

We know, at least for Better, that that is not the case.

isn't it more likely that instead of this confirming that gn'r did the leak themselves, that perhaps the cd is in the final stages of production and has leaked from a factory or somthing? after all we have heard alot about a march release date.

Damn I love all this, better than watching tv. Please, continue!  ;) Personally? I think "Better" was intentional. Rippers of CD's don't usually release half a song, I should know this  :-X. Studio is testing the water.

Watch out for the cease and desist orders to the radio stations. If none are served, It's all a promo stunt.

We know IRS, at least, is a 4 year old demo.  It's a much better quality version of the exact same track Trunk played....which management called an early demo.

I had initially thought the same thing you did...but that piece of info gives me some doubt that's what's happened.

I still find it funny that Axl mentions "better" last week and now its close to leaking out

last week? it's over a month ago.
at the Korn party.

Im guessing that the leak is either intentional, or that the club in NYC where Axl played some songs ripped it or something.
