Spoon87 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I hope for the best, but expect nothing... I think that's the best thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNR'R Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Well, either way, we're gonna get the ad soon; Harley updates their site regularly but they still have the 'check back for Better' still up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelo Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I really, really hope so."Better" is what GN'R needs right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWildheart Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 (edited) I was also thinking - since most people aren't going to know what the song is (although I'm sure they're going to recognize Axl's voice) how badass would it be if at the start of the commercial they add "Better"/Guns N' Roses from the forthcoming album "Chinese Democracy" - in stores xx/xx/06?" It won't happen, but it'd be nice! Edited November 19, 2006 by TheWildheart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangit Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I wouldnt expect anything to happen today, next week id be worried if by the end of the week the ad hasnt been unveiled. The harley statement said the pc ad would be running until today. again: has it just been during certain nascar / football games the ads been playing or has it been on a lot in just normal commerciall time?????if its on all the time then theres no reason why we woudlnt see better on the ad as from tomorrow, if harley have stood by their statement they released on the 6th nov.

TheWildheart Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 I haven't even seen the Paradise City version on TV to be honest. But I don't watch NASCAR. As far as I know, that's the only time its been televised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's the best thing to do.I haven't even seen the Paradise City version on TV to be honest. But I don't watch NASCAR. As far as I know, that's the only time its been televised.I was just about to say that. Have they played the PC version? I won't be watching Nascar either because of Football, but I'm hoping for the best also expect jack shit. I will flip to NASCAR during commercials though, I just won't be able to help myself.POST NUMBER 800!!! :xmasssanta: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't happen, but it'd be nice!I remember they did that with an Aerosmith song a few years back. I think it was on a car commercial. They just had in small print the name of the song and album it came from. Don't think they put up a release date.They'd have to do the same thing here. You have to tell people what they are listening to, otherwise it defeats the whole purpose of the ad, which is to promote the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
