Reactions/opinions from non-die hard fans

[Dave_Rose]

I played these demos last night to my friends my god they fell in love with the stuff, they said it was epic and a work of art! I'm very proud to be a GN'R fan even more now! x

[Mandy.]

My friend just loved Better.

And he is not a Gn'R fan at all.

[raffaelbh]

I have only the small version of better 

[RitzWalker8]

I have gotten better than average reactions.  What I have notices is that if you play them a few times people begin to like them more and more.  Personally, I like Better the best.  I have the 2 minute version, damn I wish I had the whole thing.  That song kicks ass.  His voice is great on that song too.

it seems by everyont aht has read the threads I have started on other boards that better is the instant grabber, something you can like instantly.. Not getting any positive feedback on the others thought... The again I am posting links not actually sitting in a room playing these over and over for multiple people

the djs on 95.9 the rat here in nj absolutely love the songs....and they are anti AXL!.....i had a convo with 1 of the djs and after she heard Better she said if CD sounds liek this she will definately buy the album

[FILTHY]

Played them for my friend a casual fan.  Sat quietly listened to them, including the other new stuff (maddy, CD, etc).   "That's good shit!"  Before he heard them he wanted to know if it was the new Gnr or if the old guys got back together.  I wouldn;t tell him till after he listened.   He listened, liked them them asked again.  Told him it was still the newer line-up.   He just gave me a "really, and it's still that good" kind of look.  Add another to the list of people waiting for the new album!

Some regular music fans, better got the nod out of anything.. Remember joe blow isn't going to give it 25 listens with special headphones

thats true, in fact a lot of people on the web are hoping for gnr's failure

i read a reply on a forum wher ethe guy said something like
"if gnr ever do come back i hope they fail miserabely:

Speaking on Camp Freddy Radio last night, Dave Navarro and Matt Sorum mentioned the leaked tracks, Dave was generally excited to possibly have Axl back on the scene while not too complimentary on the new tracks, calling them "schizophrenic'.

The podcast of the show can be heard 6767.com, the comments were made in the last part of the broadcast.

[DOASHK]

Matt didn't say anything specifically about the tracks, just commented after Dave saying something to the affect of 'that can happen when you spend 11 years in a studio with Pro Tools".

Both seemed genuinely happy about a possible release, anxious to give the finished product a listen.

There was absolutley no "jealousy" in Dave's comments, listen to the show and see for yourself.

[ppbebe]

Yikes!   @ saul

I guess He's referring to the diversity of the songs?
that's the gift of schizo.

[younggunner]

ill take these schizo songs over any song these 2 ever produced

Again, listen to the show before you alledge, Matt's comments barely noteworthy, let alone said with any "jealousy".

That another topic for another thread in another section.

@ mike:

i don`t use headphones to listen to details, but to make the songs sound like they`re supposed to....  i don`t know what you guys think, but imo the quality still sucks. compared to the old irs it`s heaven, but it still sucks. 

all this talk is nonsense.....   does anyone remember what merck said about irs not mirroring the final product?

by the way i don`t think that we should give the demos to  non die hards.  when CD hits the stores everyone will get the chance to listen to it... and then they`ll listen to something axl actually wants them to listen to and not some 3 year old crap quality demos....

i admit, when i first listened to these demos i was seriously dissapointed and let down, but after listening on headphones they grew on me and now i`m kinda blown away....... i can`t bear listening to songs in bad quality

and well....  i didn`t like neither gnr in the past, nor led zeppelin and now they?re my favourite bands and i love nearly every song.  and why?   because it took me a while to get into them.    the exact opposite is when you love a song from the beginning and than you get bored after some listens...   

i think that?s the difference between gnr songs and pop songs.....
