Josh Freese plays drums on almost the whole record.

Other Confirmed artists include Teddy "Zig-Zag" Andreadis, Patrick Keeler, Lenny Castro, Judgement Day, & Steve Farrone

a) slash and the epic "how to find a singer"

b) axl and the epic "if you can't find 2 guitarrists like Izzy and Slash, pay 3 to play with you".

sad, but true.

HOLY SHIT KOSHI INABA

I THINK I JUST FUCKING SHAT MYSELF I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY RIGHT NOW OH GOD CAPSLOCK CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO DESCRIBE IT

I don't see how Slash will be able to release a version of "Paradise City" b-side or otherwise. He'll need the consent of the other bandmembers from the original GN'R and that will never happen.

Mack Arillo said...

Other rumored titles are "The Difference is Huge," "Living Up to the Name," "Fuck Off and Drown," "If You Kill Me, I'll Haunt You," and "You Shot Me Well."
