    I hope they scrap the 2016 and and put out a double set for 2017 ala 94/95
    Well, they only have another 82 days of ineptitude left before this becomes their forced reality. The clock is ticking!

    I'd be cool if they went with an all out repress all of the past single songs on triple/quadruple 12" vinyl.  I know likely too expensive for the fees we pay, but it's nice to dream.

    Stop acting like clowns.  The band always comes through.  Late, on-time, through hell or high water this band always does right by its fans, stop being clownish.

    Lol.

    People honestly think they have it hard here. Try being a GNR fan for the past ten years. 80, yes EIGHTY dollars a year for the "Nightrain" membership. And you know what people got this year in that "membership?" a lanyard, shirt, lithograph (a little bigger then a business card) and 1 of 3 slipmats (axl, duff or Slash). All of that shipped 7 months after people bought it for the year, and international orders STILL haven't been received. Last year was even worse. You get access to pre-select tickets before general and even credit card on sales, but pretty much no one was able to get pit tickets through the fan club for the run of shows this year. 

    All of this with one album of Axl Rose solo music since the year 1991. The same year Pearl Jam broke into our conscience. 

    In the words of the great street prophet Earl Simmons, aka DMX: 

    "Stop being greedy."

    I think it was sarcasm to the max.  Nothing else.

    There was someone in England, a solicitor I believe, who was threatening to sue Bruce Springsteen and Ticketmaster over their handling of the ticket sales for Springsteen On Broadway.
    He seemed quite serious  about it. Knew case law and everything

    I heard that the single contains songs from Murphy's Rooftop and will be released after LP2. I can be patient based on that rumor.

    I think this is the best case scenario now. Otherwise there'll be a bunch of "2017 Single" threads that will run and run.

    I don't have much hope for any studio recordings this time around either. Maybe a double vinyl "Let's Play 2" tie-in set? The Murphy's rooftop songs would be a very nice record to have...

    I think the plans for the single included some Temple of the Dog from the recent tour and that was shut down for obvious reasons.  Just my gut feeling.

    I’m confused anymore.... my membership I paid in oct 2015 is the single I’m waiting on? I’m about to renew and will have 2 years waiting on singles?

    Honestly I don’t like the way they handle this. But I have a choice, and I still renew. So I’ve stopped really caring about it much. I do find it disappointing that they continue to do this, but it’s not like it’s a surprise anymore.

    You would think after so many years they would have it down to a science.  I don't know what the issue is though.  If it is not a priority or the band doesn't have the same passion for it then maybe change up the Ten Club benefits.  The singles are cool but it has been 25 years and don't have to continue doing it.
