Gunzen Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Well, great, coming soon could mean the 18th or 2008. This board will crash come Monday the 18th if CD is not in our hands. There will be 2,347 posts of "Fuck You Axl and Merck", but guess what? We will all still be here waiting, like we have done for years,and they know that.actually more like 20-25 fu's from some people with very vapid lives, the rest of us will just go to shows.hmmm.. i hope its true but come the 20th of december people will be even madder than they were on Nov 21st if it turns out to be falseDamn straight, cause then we all know all the statements and press releases were bullshit! It will be interesting to see what lies they make up to cover their asses in that case. GN´R is starting to look pathetic even to me at this point...even you? holy shit, Axl better do something soon. If you didn´t get my point I could link you to my record collection and you could check out the GN´R part of it and maybe you´d see what I meant with the "even I" part.... i was just kidding cause of the way you worded it.

Randy Lahey Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 (edited) You must forgive me as I've been out of the rap game since Tupac died. It seems to me it's just a bunch of talentless nig_ers rapping these days. Would Nas be stiff competition for GnR like Jay Z?Yah, Tupac was the shit. I still listen to old school, i.e, NWA, Public Enemy, anything Wu Tang. I worked on a video with NAS back in 99. I am indifferent to his music. I do not think he would be the same competion as Jaz Z. No way....I love the old school rap. I went and saw IceT a few months ago. It was a total nostalgia trip. Eazy E is my all time fave rapper. He reminds me of Axl in a way because so many people hated him. hooray for tolerance!z4life is still the best rap album ever in my opinion.

W. Axl Kev Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 How reliable is the BBC when it comes to info like this?The British Broadcasting Corperation? They are the number 1 tv/radio broadcasters in the whole of Britain. If they say it's happening... well... fuck it's happening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoungeFly04 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I find it interesting that BBC radio1 has this on its site. People over at HTGTH are speculating saying "why would just this station have the info and none others." But it is interesting that BBC radio1 is also the first place that Slither by VR was played. This is where the studio recording debuted. My source for this is Rik's site, plus I remember streaming it and listening to it back in 04. At any rate, I'm not from England, so I am not familiar with this station or its reliability, but maybe they do have first dibs on GN'R info or debuting a song. Do they debut songs frequently on this station? Here's the link for the info about the Slither single. Just a coincidence I thought of. There's just as much chance as this being nothing. Take it for what its worth. http://vr.belowempty.com/discography/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack99 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 *Edited lame topic title*A thread with no info, obviously 5 pages long.... "Coming Soon" means they know shit but it's still smarter than guessing release dates like HMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they debut songs frequently on this station? You're right, VR did debut Slither early, however we also need to keep in mind the gravity of the albums being compared. Contraband was just a normal album from a normal band, CD on the other hand, a different story. Although I hope as much as the rest of the GNR community that the BBC has some credible sourcing, I'm afraid this is just another dead end...

LoungeFly04 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I see what you're saying. I guess what I'm asking is if BBC Radio 1 carries the kind of weight that would make it desirable to debut a track on it. I see how the albums are weighted differently, but really Contraband did weigh heavy for the band members, because it was their biggest chance of a comeback of sorts.

Hopefully someone phones though Arse, looks like she's left the BBC. Still, I guess the phone number will still connect, if you just ask to speak to someone from the Radio 1 press office.
