    Posted

    havent seen it posted, sorry if it is.

    today in neighbours this guy toadie was getting ripped on for not moving on and this other guy was like 'for gods sake you still have an axl rose poster on your wall' and toadie responds 'hey the new is album is coming out soon' and a few minutes later hes goes 'i'm still cool, and so is axl rose'

    good promotion if ya ask me!

    was this shown on the one that was played in england today? because i never noticed it?

    My theory on why they may not announce a release date for CD

    As stupid as you all may think this sounds look at it like this. Let's say they do give us a release date, it'll be front page news everywhere but what happens if the album flops, Axl will be known the world over as the guy who took 13 yrs and $13+ million to deliver an album that sucks. But if they were not to announce a release date & as Merk said, "you may just walk into a store and find it" the backlash and media coverage on Axl will be no where near the amount if they were to announce a date. At this point its better to release an album quietly and have it flop then announce it to the world and have it bomb. If the album is as good as we all hope then once it gets released quietly and sales are good, the label can push some promotion into it to further the sales instead promoting a flop 1st & wasting anymore money on an album thats costs millions already. In short it makes sense to release quietly and see what happens and build from there, then announce it, make a promotional juggernaut & have it backfire on them. Keep in mind the people on these forums (i am 1 of them) are pretty much the only ones who believe it will be a huge monumental album, but to the average music consumer, its just another band

    in a idealistic world this would be a very good theory, but the facts are that extensive marketing and promotion will be used, the album cost $13 mil, they will want as many people to know about this album to maximise sales so that they can cover their cost and ultimately make a profit. the reason the album is taking so long is because axl and the guys are making the album as strong as possible so that it is not a flop.

    Will Sabastian Bach get the fuck out the picture?

    Anyone else sick of Sebastian Bach, the world's biggest lameass being all over GNR? And why the fuck does Axl even bring him up on stage to sing during a GNR show? Fucking Bach was making cameos on the UPN 9 for christs sake! Also, Bach is the biggest Axl ass kisser since Matt13. People get all excited when he praises Chinese D, but come on, Axl is this fools new meal ticket.

    And by having Bach and Co opening up for this tour, it just shows that Axl is stuck in the past and surrounding himself with has-beens. Why didn't Axl get a band like The Killers to open for GNR? You know, get some youth to the show. I remember when Guns opened for the Stones, now if GNR are the stones, shouldn't a huge band for the youth open up for them?

    Sebastian bach is well good live, he really does get you hyped before Guns N roses come on, he was awesome at wembley anyway.

    but i still agree with the fact that a big band should open for Guns, maybe not killers big, someone like the kooks or razorlight would cut it.
