So, if he's so sick, why was Chicago ok, but Milwaukee not? Answer the question fuckhead, don't go on a senseless rant when you know nothing about me.

Some of you seriously need to calm down.

Strep usually is accompanied by a high fever, so if he does indeed have it, he could make himself far worse by not taking the time off. He would risk dehydration, etc etc. It may have started out as a sore throat, and just got progressively worse. And ear infections aren't a walk in the park; my daughter had one not long ago, and screamed like the end of the world was coming.

OK. So why was Chicago OK, and Milwaukee isn't if he was diagnosed while still in Canada?

Oh boy, I do need to spell it for some people. If you are a bit ill and you don't rest it out, you will get more ill!!! Is this so hard to get????

This has nothing to do with the release of CD or the fucking around with the fan base through vague release information or vague responses from Merck's side, so 'back off bitch'. That's another topic.

For the cancelled show: If you read the review of last night show in Chicago, it says that Axl had major problems with his voice, sometimes even no voice. So it is kind of logical that the Milwaukee show is cancelled due to illness, when we already had the first signs of ilness yesterday. I do feel sorry for the Milwaukee fans though!

Damn, it feels so good to be smarter then the rest!

What happened to Axls spirit from the UK tour. Down with low blood pressure and exhaustion, doctors tell him to cancel the show and he says "Theres no fuckin' way I'm cancelling this show".

Theres gonna be a lot of pissed people at milwaukee. They should have postponed it to a later date, no?

low blood pressure and exhaustion are different then throath problems. If you have no voice, you can't sing...you stupid fuck.

He managed to sing in Chicago. Why wouldn't they cancel that show too? Maybe because they had more ticket sales?

Fuck you, you fucking retard! A lot of artists cancell shows due to illness, so why can't Axl without being bashed? You're not a fan, you're an ass-fucked-no-good-pussy-bitch-slapped GNR hater.

Don't tell me what I should or shouldn't do! Probably because he thought he could go on, even with a cold or something, but later noticed during the Chicago show that his voice was crap. Do I need to spell everything to you, boy?

People always complaining that we don´t get information, but appearently complain even more if the information not please you. Tell me why the hell Merck would tell us that the album won´t be out if that is the case, when people get more pissed of that then any information at all. If I was Merck I would shut up and don´t tell u a fucking thing.

You are wrong about this. People are pissed because of the lack of information. This isnt info, this is Merck being vague like usual, and telling us we will have some sort of info by the end of the year.

Here is the thing, Axl said on many of occasions that the album will be out this year. He used the word "absolutely", meaning its definitely coming out this year. Now even though he made this statement, I still understand that shit happens. Maybe something beyond his control is delaying the album, but we will not know this because they dont tell us SHIT. So it leaves us to speculate whats going on. People say Axl doesnt owe us anything, but I dont agree with that. Had he not made these statements about the album coming out this year, then I would say he doesnt owe us, but for him to say that to the fans, and then tour under the notion the album is coming out, I say he does owe us at least an explanation. You dont feed the fans all this info only to keep your mouth shut when it comes the time to deliever, thats shitting on the fans.

Look, I know some people would complain even with a statement, thats just how people are, cant be avoided. However, if Axl was to release a statement saying that he knows he said the album would be out this year, but due to (add reason here) CD will not be out until the beginning of next year. We apologise for the delay but I can assure you the album is still on its way and will only be delayed a short time, and will be well worth the wait. Thats all it would take and most people here would appreciate that wouldnt be pissed anymore. Its lack of communication that is really starting to turn people (including me) off of this band.

Haven´t u heard comments like "lets see what cind of excuse they have" or "Lets see who they would blame" "It´s never Axls fault" etc...etc. THESE posts are more common then "just give us some information and we will be pleased".

So even if they told us the truth, and the truth was that it was beyond their power to get it released this year, people would highlight it as an lame excuse. What I´m trying to say is that IF the case is that they won´t be able to put out the album caused of circumstances beyond their power, they will get appearently get MORE shit then they deserve. And for me, it´s pretty obvious that that´s the case.

People here choose to not beleve in the obvouis because they are pissed that it tooked "13" years to get the album out. Like hawks they flying around here and wait AND create an oppurtunity to twist Axls and Mercks necks, no matter what. THAT is obvious. And if the album wont be out this year, GnR camp is in a dead end.

The main problem is that people here have turned themselves to martyres and claim that they have waited three times longer or more on this album then they actually have. I started to excpect that actually an album would come out around ´01 but not anytime soon because Axl said so, and I think most of us did.

This will be the first delay I´ve experinced, and we all know it´s close now even if it will be one of the first weeks in 2007. We will get information by the end of the year(soon) wheter it´s good or bad, I´ll take it as it is.

I think that you should get your head out of Axl's ass! I for one supported and defended Axl the whole year on this board actively, and in real life since the old days. As did most of us here on this board. TODAY is the first day of my life that I bash on Axl and Merck, because of that disrespectful answer Merck send about CD. In his reaction he acts like the release is no big deal, but guess what: TO A FAN IT IS!!!! Seeing Axl perform last summer was one of the greatest concerts I ever attended, correction...the greatest!!!! But when it comes to Chinese Democracy, there is only 1 correct answer possible now....and that is releasing it!!!!

I think all 3 of them are extremely fucking awesome!!!! rock1

they've made a bomb touring this year. someone say 200k + per gig? thats a hell of a lot of lawyers paid for.

Someone said this, someone said that.......the same bullshit as always. Whenever you make such statements, mention a source please!!!!

Sorry mate, but you're a puppet in the Axl Rose show. How do you know that the "Lie to make money on the tour"-argument has no substance at all? Do you have access to Axl's bank- or savings account? Do you know Axl's financial status? Why do you think he couldn't affort to pay those Warhole paintings during the year? Money doesn't last for ever, you know? You know just as little as us, so please don't be so sure of yourself, because I'm losing my FUCKING patience. I was a puppet just like you, and like you, defended Axl too long. The only ones who have my support and respect right now is the band.

I'd never thought I would ever say this, but: "Fuck you Axl Rose and fuck you Merck!!!". You cannot imagine how much you dissappointed me as a GNR fan!!!! Not because you won't release CD in 2006, but because of how you misleaded us and how your fucking undeserved arrogance stands in the way between a wonderfull band and its fans. I've never asked you any favours Axl, untill now: "Please stick Chinese Democracy up your ass and sit on it for another 14 years, you fucking disrespectfull cocky cheap immitation of Michael Jackson!!!!"

EVERYONE likes the simpsons

they played welcome to the jungle in the episode when homer buys that van

I never liked the Simpsons, and I still don't.

Kaneda, you're probably even dumber than a caveman with amnesia, you stupid fuck. Merck even told us that Rolling Stone got it wrong, so what the fuck are you talking about. If the album doesn't com out this year, then you can curse Axl and GNR on the evening of the 31st of December. Before that, please keep your moral up.

I'm with ya!!!

Hahaha, I almost 'shitted' my pants again. This topic and the reactions are killer!

Maybe someone can zoom into the other messages on the messageboard, to see if they have anything to do with Virgin. I know, I watch too many detectives.

This is the link to the galery:

I'd love to do a 1-minute-free-shopping in that store, damn!!!

Great pics!!!

Does anyone have material of Robin crowdsurfing? Thanks!

Your friend is most likely a boneless pussy who's angry with himself because his girlsfriend owns him and he can't go and see his favorite band. This pisses him off and pushes him to try to ruin the show on beforehand for as many people as possible.

Robin should slam his guitar into some people's faces on this board.

Rose’s first smart move in a decade would be firing one of these guys (hopefully the tie-dyed-sundress-wearing Finck, who has as much stage presence as a kumquat).

I almost fell off my chair.

Indeed! Someone forgot to tell that motherfucker that Robin wrote one of those great new songs, and how 'the Finckster' climbed those fence in Nijmegen and did some crowdsurfing at an other show. Ok, maybe Robin had a bad night, but that doesn't justify the way this assfucker writes about Robin. Somebody please shoot Jed spermbank Gottlieb. For Christ sake, he has a German family name.

You know what would be good: If over on the official Gn'R page they should have a section called 'something?' (rumours shot down or fact and fiction) and the page could contain a list of rumours complete with anwsers from the Gn'R camp (just to clear things up a little).

Here's an example:

Rumour: did Robin grow a beard because Axl told him to do so?

Anwser: Robin (might anwser): lol! no, it was all my own idea. I don't tell Axl what to do with his hair, and he don't tell me what to do with mine.

Users could post the Rumour (question) and the Gn'R camp could supply an anwser as and when.

Merck could remove any forum abusers.

That's a great idea!!! Could be a lot of fun!!!

They didn't even mention that the fire marshal threatened to arrest and give a $1,000 fine to fans who attempted to drink or smoke inside the venue (this applied to the Guns N' Roses crew as well). I think GN'R did the right thing by cancelling the show. Can you just imagine the media backlash the band would've gotten after having numerous fans unfairly arrested and fined at the band's concert?

Also, had the show gone on, Axl would have probably gotten fuckin' pissed at the venue's security thus causing much turmoil.

Managment did the right thing. The explanation that Bach, Beta, Axl, and Merck have given us all fits together very well.

Dude, this is new to me! So the fans and crew were not allowed to drink nor smoke in that venue? Well then, it's very simple then. GNR was in their right to cancel the show. GNR concerts are all about having a good rock n' roll time. This includes drinking and smoking for the most of us. If someone doesn't agree, then he or she should visit a fucking Moby concert.

Although I was a bit dissapointed by this message at first, now it seems kind of bullshit to me. Remember Merck telling us that the cancellation cost GNR $200,000? Then why would GNR cancel the show? They could easily drink on stage, get a $450 fine, drink a bit more, and in the end get drunk as fuck. Oh yeah, before I forget.....if people want to start complaining about this band's necessarity of getting drunk on stage: PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THE OLD BAND!!!

Merck, be prepared for some serious bitch slapping!!!!

they still didn't mention you, too bad Kaneda, i'm sure you will try again tomorrow.

That's the same thing I was thinking after reading that bullshit topic of his. Maybe he was turned down by Axl for NewGNR, and tries to get recognition in this negativ desperate way. Who knows? Oh well, I don't care. Please shoot the motherfucker!

On topic:

Axl and Merck should kick Kaneda's ass! After that, we (all GNR fans) should piss in his empty skull.
