I am very hopeful that the band is going to get all they go after this year. But,
in under two weeks and they are back on the road!

See, it's that quote right there that bothers me.
Don't they have anyone, be it management or label execs, who can help them figure this stuff out? I don't want to go through the laundry list of popular music acts in 2020 who *don't* have this issue, but this problem certainly isn't unique to GNR. This attitude just makes everyone seem kind of clueless, or worse, apathetic in regard to how best to move forward with a release.
Not being sure what the best way to release it isn't the end of the world.
And yes, I'm sure they can decide on what the best option is. But I'm sure the record company wants what's best for them, and the band wants what's best for them.
/jarmo
Whatever the reasons were that we never got the followup album from 2009-2014, I have to believe that those label issues have long since dissipated, especially considering the numbers NITL brought in.
My one hope in all of this is that the label has or will soon have the album in some type of finished form, and that they're just waiting for an economical time to drop it during this tour. At this point, the best we can bank on is the blind hope that certain people at the top have a plan for GNR this year that goes beyond just the scheduled live shows.
After the 2014 residency they were focusing on releasing the album. Then Slash and Duff rejoined the band. Would make no sense to release a album without Slash & Duff recorded parts. Plus you have a Tour that was a huge success which was the right move. There’s plenty of time to release the album, before the Stadium Tour. Management doesn’t have to say anything.... they could drop it tomorrow... wait till June. The silence you hear should be comforting, since the old saying “ no news, is good news”. I for one am excited about the stadium tour, since the weather will be nice ( I live in the Pacific Northwest ) plus they are playing at some cool places ( Missoula MT & the new SoFi Stadium in Inglewood).

You're right...management doesn't have to say a thing...but they did. I don't think there's anything wrong with people asking for an update. We all know "things change" but when you put something out there, you should be able to back it up.

Clearly, Fernando has been too busy making sure the upcoming after-show parties have an ample amount of high priced hookers ordered up, and has not been able to elaborate on his album by March/within six months comments to fans back in September. Which is so totally understandable...

The hookers may just be for Axl, I'm not sure. I saw Del and Fernando herding a group of confused looking hotties backstage at Soldier Field in 2016, and let's just say I don't think they were there to headbang to Paradise City.
At any rate, I'm just relieved Team Brazil have their priorities in order for GNR in 2020.

LOL.
I'd say at most shows there are female guests of the band. Doesn't necessarily mean what you assume it does.

Lol...I'm sure they do have plenty of female guests. But with that said, I know what I saw after the Chicago show, and if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...

So according to you, confused good looking females at shows must be prostitutes. Got it.
It's nice to learn something new!

When they're dressed like Jessica Rabbit and being led backstage by members of Team Brazil? Yes. All day, yes.

Nope. The way people dress doesn't always speak of their profession. Sorry.
I mean, if you see a guy dressed in black on stage, it's probably a crew guy....
But relating to guests. Not really. Some show up in Converse, some show up in high heels.

Lol, ok, fine. Well I hope the not-prostitutes had a blast backstage, whatever that may have been.

The hookers …… hotties backstage at Soldier Field
If you think real hookers are actually hotties, then you've never lived around them in the slums, pal. Hookers are only "hotties" on television.

Some us live in the real world.
I was listening to music today about the 9 to 5. Where in the world do they work 9 to 5? It's always been 8 to 5 where I've lived.
