Tommy: A lot of the songs we did that weren't on Chinese Democracy may be redone and put on the next album. Unsure yet.

My question: Is it possible to release album with old unheard songs while we wait for you to record and release new stuff?

Tommy's answer: A lot of the songs we did that weren't on Chinese Democracy may be redone and put on the next album. Unsure yet.

So, no twin album ready for release immediately. The best we can hope for now is an album coming as a result of either writing and recording completely new material or an album with re-recorded old songs that we haven't heard before.

That's a shame. But good to at least know the situation.

@mackarillo Don't worry, Chinese tour will eventually stop and new material WILL be out

Redone?

Why the fuck? Just to get Ashba, Ron and Ferrer on them?

Just release the shit as is.

More from Tommy (from the recent RS article):

"We certainly did record a lot of stuff. We recorded three records worth of material over the course of that 10-year period, but I think that a lot of the unfinished bits were mostly lyrics and mixes and things like that." Might another record be in the works? "I'm not a liberty to talk about that. I don't get into that aspect. That's Axl's business."

So, maybe the case isn't as clear cut as it seemed. Maybe there are material ready to be released.

Eugh, they just need to release the fucking thing. Get it out of the way, tour it alongside the dates this fall, then get the fuck back in the studio to write songs afresh.

My worry is that Bumblefoot will go the way of Bucket and Robin and eventually leave out of frustration.

I couldn't agree more. The thought of a new prolonged period of re-recording and tinkering with old songs is awful. I want GN'R to be a band for the future, not for the past. Create and release music, you slubbards!!!
