Here Today... Gone To Hell!

A friend called me today, and said that around 4:30 this afternoon, NeanderPaul (Paul Marshall afternoon DJ/music programmer who has been critical of Axl in the past--but loves GNR), said that he received a cd in a brown paper sack with a note daring him to play it.? Well he did.? It was Better!? He said that many people including himself, have been harsh on Axl, but that everyone has to admit that the song is kick ass (or something like this)!!!? I hope management does not get mad at him, because this really represents a huge shift in the attitude toward the new GNR.? ?A few years ago, I think many DJ's were hesitant to push any new GNR material, but now they are starting to come around.? Anyhow, very cool of The Rock!! :yes:

The leak, right?

He used to be a DJ in boston

I can't wait till Ricker on 99.9 KISW Seattle starts playing the new GnR. "Yeah baller, hears the new tune from Axl n' the boys, Light em up, World!!".

Yep he is from Boston, and worked there with another Entercom station. ?Entercom, it seems, is going to push this album: ?Entercom stations have pushed the leaks, and it seems they have insight regarding the upcoming tour. It's almost as if, they have some sort of deal with Sanctuary and Interscope. ? Anyway's, my friend said Better really rocked on the radio, and 98.9 The Rock is the most listened to station in Kansas City--good publicity!!

Do you know if it's the same leak we all have?  Or a studio quality version?

leak or studio version?

I think that's what we all want to know.... ???

My friend indicated it's the leaked version that we all have.  He mentioned that NeanderPaul said it was not the finished version, but loved the song.  Intersting to say the least.

I can only imagine how incredible the finished version of "Better" will sound.

do you know how many times theyve played it???

Itd be cool if it was every hour!

It sounds like Better is gonna be the first single......



I guess it will sound a lot similar to the leak....

nah, it will sound very different. especially around the middle of the song  :hihi:

As long as it's still badass, I'm happy.

the afd demos sounded bad.. and they turned out awesome eh?  : ok:
omg imagine B3TT3R!!  :P

AFD demos was made by a completly different band. I guess that times they used to make demos like a test, like just a jam....
The Better demo sounds like something more professional.....

I hope soon these stations will be playing the final versions of the songs.   Can't be too long now.

the hell? which afd demos have you been downloading?

From al the demos, BETTER sounds like the more close to the final product IMO.

  that's what I'd like to know

what I tried to say is that times the band was Duff, Slash, Steven, Axl and Izzy, and was 80's, different technology....
Nowadays, I bet a person like Axl has in his backyard a studio that can be recorded any high quality song....

Oh i C. yeah well you can believe "Better" will sound 100x tighter when its finalized  :hihi:

well...  basically the demos are very badly mixed and very badly ripped from the source. and they?re only demos, so i really look forward to the real versions

The "version" played was the breakdown part, or heavy part when played live looped a couple of times.  It sounded like someone just stuck it into shitty editing software and copy and pasted a few times.  It's not Paul's fault for believing this to be an alternate version, as he told me, because he is not a G N' R freak like the rest of us.  So, it's new G N' R on the radio, but a bit misleading.  More leaks to come apparently.

Sounds like the alt. I'm Sorry mix--which I certainly dig!!
