I’d say the damage hasn’t been done yet to affect a timeline (if there even is one at this point) Timing is paramount in today’s music scene. Attention spans are minimal and you really need a short burst strategy to get traction. I’m actually interested in seeing how they roll this out when it’s time Those retarded outlets like blabbermouth and alternativenation read this forum. A thread with this name will have them read it and post about it, it's just a matter of time and then it will spread like a wildfire and it might end up affecting the release date haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe there's a chance that he didn't read/heard the question? It was a text conversation and again, he was asked directly three different times. He read the question all three times, then continued on with the conversation without answering it. 16 hours ago, RussTCB said: Reopening this thread that @sofine11made yesterday. We were in contact with Fernando directly today. He was asked 3 times throughout the conversation if the reddit account was his, but he chose not to answer that question during the course of the conversation. So... due his dodging of a direct question (THREE times!) we'll just assume the account is his. 14 minutes ago, MYWIFEMYLIFE said: why not locked?

I wouldn’t say it affects anything to push it. It’s more of the pressure it puts on everyone to deliver something. Although everyone forgets after 4 days anyways However for example. If they wanted to keep things silent and hit with a major announcement and capitalize with preorder options simultaneously, this could deflate things as the cat is officially out of the bag Who knows. I’m interested to see how they roll things out. I hope it goes well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I think something is happening. I think Slash was at axls recording when the amp company leaked it on their Facebook. Stuff is happening, because now for the first time since 1993 we have a band that does not have revolving band members. This is the band and NITL is running dry so something needs to happen or silence. They have pretty much said they will be a band and tour for years to come.. an album is inevitable.

He doesn't personally know the fans any more than we personally know him, and yet, he's never done anything but judge and condescend, so now I'm going to judge him. He's never come off as anything more than a spoiled, entitled twit. Glad to know that it sounds like he hasn't changed since I've been away.

Doesn't seem like a very nice way to treat any fans to me. Tbh I can't seem to recall ANY other band or their mgmt. being as abusive to a beyond super loyal fanbase like that ever in my whole life. It makes zero sense whatsoever to me. But what would I know right? 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-W.A.R- Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Seems odd that he can put a time frame on the release but revealing a working title is something he'd have to wait for the band to announce. Also there should not be one song from the CD era carried over to a new release. Axl should release a solo effort with all the stuff he has finished if he wants it out there. Everything on this new release should be, well, new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baggio86 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) If that account really is Fernando, as touched on previously by other posts, it highlights just how absurd the management of this band is. @guitarpatchhit the nail on the head. Timing and striking at the right moment is critical in the music arena nowadays. Flop and top are finite margins. If it is actually him, he is an even bigger clown than I initially thought.

murph Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 It also should be noted that for how big of a news story this would be..

Lio Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 1 hour ago, Underhardy said: I could see that cheeky Fernando saying to himself, “If I just dodge the question, it seemingly confirms this new album, and gets the fans hyped enough to stay intrigued.” That thought has crossed my mind. Whenever they post anything on FB or wherever, people ask new music. They all know that. It's not only 'annoying diehards' that want new music. If anything, casuals might expect it more than us, because maybe they don't know how this band works. So they try to awkwardly confirm that it is planned to be released in 6 months, but by not confirming anything officially, if there is no new album (because we all know everything always goes wrong with GNR, by no means by their own volition or fault, but because the world/life/label/leakers...), they can say they've never set any date or made any promises or official announcements. So it will be on us again, for believing some anonymous reddit poster who might technically be anyone trolling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude announces a new gnr anything on reddit ffs? 😂 One would like to believe and think it'd be Axl/GnR doing that on their official web page no? "This whole thing is fucked up..." But that is the problem. He's not just a hired guy. He's family. He will get away with what others don't. If anything, he will get a slap on the wrist and that will be it.
