Wow trying to rip off their fans even more. First different colored album covers, now the same album with extras, why not do this first?

Talk to RCA....their the whores who put that shit out knowing fans are dumb enough to keep buying that stuff. Anyone who bought all 3 colors in the beginning should not complain one iota about this as it is those people who get the record company to keep releasing the same thing just tweaked a bit.

Yeah, I kind of think they are milking this album a little too much.  But, to be fair, I really don't think Slash and Scott are the ones sitting around thinking of different marketing ploys to sell more albums and make more money.  However, their label knows they are one of the biggest bands on the planet and if they can profit from this, then they are certainly going to try...

How are VR one of the biggest band on the planet when they can just sell out clubs? If they were one of the biggest on the planet they could sell out areana's which they would not be alble to.

I wonder if you mean Re-Mixed?? Cause that would change the sound and give certain parts more clarity..

It doesn't matter to me they are releasing it with some other added shit, no one is forcing anyone to buy it again..You either do ro you don't, it's pretty cut n dry..

Lets just say they are one of the bigger newer bands going, nothing more.. Regardless they are a NEW band and only have an album since june, they've accomplished alot in a short period of time..

I know some might say well they were with famous bands before.. Well it's has some truth, but not every spinoff does good.. Might remember a band called CREED, they have sold 10's of million of albums up to a year or so ago, they have a greatest hits album, they are fresh in everyone's mind.. They have a spinoff without scott called alter bridge and you would think they would be huge because of creed's success but it's not the case..

You can't expect a new band to sell out arenas..
