Spoon87 Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Well, I take this as great news! March 6th isn't too far away, and things are a lot clearer now than yesterday.I hope, now everything goes a lot faster, like "finishing touches on the album", promotion, release of a single + video etc...

Patience 4 Axl Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Nice letter from Axl. If he had just done this in the past and showed fans how appreciative he was for our support, he would have gotten a lot less shit from people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caught in the Rye Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I'm glad to hear they're going to be releasing the album the right way. Promotion, a video, singles, etc. 2007 is the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shades Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I think the contents of his 'letter to the fans' is a glaring indication of the root problem involving the entire Guns N Roses 'Saga', start to finish. From the problems with the original band, his problems with the women in his life to the problems with the CD release and everything in between.He's fuckin full of himself.Its a CD release from a rock N Roll band for crying out loud.theres people starving in the world with no place to sleep at night and he's writing a detailed 'letter' to his fans like he's explaining the second coming.We all want to hear his music, we all wanted the original lineup to stay together too.Axl, told us and the original band to go fuck ourselves a long time ago.Its all about him. And thats fine, I could give a rats ass about Axl, or his happiness. he's not a nice person and not the kind of person I would hang out with.BUTHe is the man when it comes to rock n roll, I went to his concerts, and I will buy his CD.Put he CD out in March or put the Cd up your ass. Its all good.Dont go grovelling over him like he's the King of England. It encourages him.JMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
final_touches Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Now we just have to hope that - as Merck said in his statement - "the muse will arrive" when the band is trying to complete the album in January. Then there are 8 weeks left from handing the album over to the record company until the possibly March 6th release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience 4 Axl Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 It IS nice to finally hear something from Axl, but why feel the need to thank him? For actually acknowledging his fans? For blaming the record company, legal problems and management for the delay of the album? Notice how it's everyone else's fault except his once again. Like I said, it's great that he is actually speaking to the fans, but I'm not going to thank him for that. Thank you Axl for speaking to us???? Pfffttt.

rich256 Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Fuck you more like!I'm sick to death of it! The album obviously sucks! If he was happy with it, i.e if it was any good we'd have it!I have no faith left in this guy! Even Merck's basically saying Axl's full of shit!If the demo's are anything to go by we ain't gonna be missing much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Before going to bed last night there was a huge thread about Axl's open letter. I wake up today and I dont see it? What happened to the thread? There were some great posts in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridin' the Nightrain Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 (edited) Why was the original thread about this letter deleted?Edit: Haha, great minds think alike, Old School. Edited December 15, 2006 by Slash's Appetite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Estranged Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Edit: I'm posting this here, the last thread I wrote it in, seems to be dying a death.To be honest, I'm pretty much more pissed off than before, considering the following:- Merck points out that there was at most 3 days needed for finishing touches.- Its taken them a year to put down these finishing touches.- They are now cancelling tour dates for these finishing touches.- We get told that there were finaincial difficulties, which kind of confirms what many have said that this tour was nothing but a money spinner. considering the album was not finished before hand.- The very fact that theres still recording to be done, after this long, is also incredible.- The release date, which is already way off in March, is neither promised nor garraunteed, it is subject to change, so really it means nothing, like the money spinning tour, like the comments about Autumn Releases, like everything we have been told so far. - I see this whole thing as a cynical exercise in publicity, they need money, they say theres a release iminent to advertise a tour to generate money, when fans react to the lack of release, they put out some press release saying "sorry more work to be done, its Merck's fault for blabbing too much" (shades of the buckethead release years before).- The cycles continues, I no longer believe this album will come out.

cold_as_ice Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Merck is history!He had that coming!Buahahahahahahaha!I'm glad about Axl's letter. Finally something. I read the letter too quicky that I didn't even understand it. I was so excited. It won't be out this year. I guess we had that coming too.So, now we wait. Again. But this time that won't be a problem since Axl said something about the matter.Chinese democracy starts...in March... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GET OFF AXLS BACK Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Great performer but he's like a fucking 6 year old, everybody else is at fault.You would think with his type of personality he wouldn't let anything stop him but i guess his biggest obstical is himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard2k Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Main Entry: ten·ta·tive Pronunciation: 'ten-t&-tivFunction: adjectiveEtymology: Medieval Latin tentativus, from Latin tentatus, past participle of tentare, temptare to feel, try1 : not fully worked out or developed <tentative plans>2 : HESITANT, UNCERTAIN <a tentative smile> - tentative noun - ten·ta·tive·ly adverb - ten·ta·tive·ness nounMarch 6th should NOT come around without news. We should have a FIRM release date before then, but March 6th is what they're shooting for obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The facts are that the album hasn't been completed yet and contrary to what has been said some weeks ago, the album won't be released in 2006. All the rest (including March 6th) is speculation.

Jameslofton29 Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 UYI had a "tentative" release date of May 18th....In reality though, it could be later or sooner than March 6th. Most likely later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GET OFF AXLS BACK Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 If people think 07 will see the release of CD then they need help, this album will not be released until the hermit dies or the lable sues the band for the cd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
