Everyone should take some time to read this.  Absolutely wonderful write-up.  May I share this on my Favebook page?

Absolutely.  And thank you!!!

Agree. Its easily the best raw song on the album. And yes, very Slash-esque guitars. Axl's lyrics, superb.

Raw ? - there's nothing raw about Sorry. I'm sorry for you if you consider Sorry close to Raw.

You're right, nothing on CD is RAW lol. I should go back and state "acoustic guitars, layered chorus/melodies... but very stripped down vocals in the verses.." I stand corrected on such a statement lol

Fan since '88 here. Lived through the entire CD shenanigans. I'm not falling for it this time. Axl is right, no use in hyping up or even talking about an album he has no plan on releasing anytime in the next 3 years. They still have hundreds of thousands of dollars they need to generate playing AFD-UYI-and CD songs to places all over the world that aren't the USA.

I honestly dont think the general public is waiting anyway. Save the few of us diehards that are still left. GNR has reached Dio and Ozzy status. New album, new commercial, local rock station plays the hit single for a few weeks, arena tour, play all the classics, end of promotion. The days of getting excited over co-headlining tours, amazing music videos, tour documentaries and hip singles are WAY over.

Soon is the word.

Its the only song on Chinese Democracy that actually sounds like Guns N' Roses.

The face of GNR to the boring faceless masses who don't matter. Axl's real fans and the real GNR fans know who represents the band and what the band is all about.

Yeah, the face of GNR is the band showing up and accepting their induction into history. Obviously Axl is no longer the face of GNR.

If anything, we could only find previews of the speeches and performances on different websites. Nothing officially comes out till the 5th of May.

cool, on HBO. got it, thanks

Thanks to the guy on YouTube who put the 3 videos (audio only up), but is there any video of the actual speeches? Man, i would love to have that in my collection!

Hasn't it been explained like a gazillion times that no more music has been released and no videos has been made etc cause of management/business issues?

It's never Axl's fault.

hey guys, I read a lot on the boards, and other GNR sites, and lifelong fan. Just wanted to share my opinion on what's happening.

Happy Birthday Axl! Thank u for everything!!! You've been an inspiration and leader of the pack for so many of us. Truly inspired by your work through all the years!

AXL Converse shoes forever!!!!

Hey there guys/girls. Just wanted to share a video I filmed at the show a few weeks ago from the tour. The show was AMAZING! The band were on fire, and looked like they were having a blast up there. For me, it was the 2nd time seeing GNR (2002, Columbus), and it was quite a memory for me, being a childhood fan of the band since about 1988, if I recall.

Please take the time to watch the video, and I would recommend getting comfortable, as I present to you a 24 minute piece (shot in HD), documenting Guns N' Roses, live from Cincinnati, OH, USA.

Enjoy!
