there is not one band out there half as good as Guns. Until there is a real band in the mainstream(in this case, GNR), there will be no good music. thats just the way it is in the music world right now. CD will at least put a end to that. will CD be a revolution, i doubt it. but it will be a breath of fresh air that will spread.

Was there a woman right off stage that he hugged during your show?

I saw him do that a couple times the other night - one time for like 30 seconds.

I guess it must be Beta - but I have no idea what she looks like.

Well was she young? Perhaps his lover for the night..

Or if it was an older lady probably Beta for sure, lucky bitch.

lol, sometime i think she isnt so lucky. lets be honest here, i dont think any of us would want to be around Axl when he is having his.......moments.

the song is a great opener to the album, but t is by no means single material. the song will not capture the audience like better would. hell, maybe even TWAT could be the first singe

could be the perfect way to announce that the release date has been set, then play the new single.

i love the fact that axl threw in a Spinal Tap reference. its exactly what i was thinking when i read about the fire.

hmm. so what is the deal with merch.com/gnr ? there are two official stores now?

not sure, im guessing that that site will probably be taken down soon.

40 fuckin bucks for one of those at the show

what a joke

agreed, quite expensive. thank god they lowered the price on the site. i really hope that the rest of the stuff will be cheaper when it goes on the site.

wow, i ordered the stuff late Saturday night and i got it today. i ordered the flag and the wristband. for those curious about the size of the flag, this pic should help. i put the wristband on top of it you can compare the size.

the flag is really awesome. i may end up ordering another one, as i found another place where it would look great, not to mention the unbelievable price.

Show of the Year: May 12th 2006, Hammerstein Ballroom

Guitarist of the Year: Robin Finck

Best ''leaked'' song: There Was A Time

Most shocking news of 2006: tentative release date of March 6th

Guitar solo of the Year: Richard Fortus & Robin Finck "Beautiful"

i ordered the flag and the wristband. heh, would be kind of funny if they did screw up on the price of the flag. i hope they put up more soon, i really want the poster that was sold on the tour, as well as the key chains/lanyards.

What can I get for 5 bucks?

they have a 5 dollar wristband, but that doesn't count shipping

my recommendation is to get the Epiphone Les Paul Standard. i bought one over this past summer, and it was worth every penny. it plays great, sounds great, and looks great. for $500, i couldn't ask for anything more. if your a gnr fan and cant afford a Gibson, buy this ASAP.

does anyone know how large the flag poster? i really want it but im not sure how large it is.

From my personal collection

great fucking scott, that thing is huge. that is going right over my amp.

The Flag's only $9.99!! I'll definitely pick that up, maybe even the beanie too.

i would buy one, but, i need the new logo on it.

As soon Merck disappeared the wheels started turning :krider:

heh, Axl's way of saying FUCK YOU MERCK. lol. i love this, im so happy to be a fan right now.

VERY cool,

I reccomend the flag, its really nice

I'm betting we get some UK/Europe/NA tour stuff up there pretty quick, and I hope so cause they had some nice stuff!

i really hope they put of those key chains/lanyards that were sold on the tour. i really want those. im really happy with all of the new logos. they all fit the band perfectly. i wonder how much the hoodie(w/ new logo) will cost when its put up, i know it was super expensive at the shows.

does anyone know how large the flag poster? i really want it but im not sure how large it is.

Look at the picture in my Avater, that is me holding the flag

hard to tell with such a small pic, but it looks a lot bigger than i thought. damn, i need 2 of those.

WOW

i come home from school and i find on mygnr forum that axl and merk made press releases.....

what would have made the press releases a little tiny bit better would have been like a little 10 or 20 second clip of a song that is completly done...

think how much more awesome that would have been

you know, i would believe anything right now. within the last 24 hours, we had a large press release from both Merck and Axl, Merck in gone, the album may be out by march 6th, there was/is a video in the works, we can expect heavy promotion, and the store is finally up(although there isn't much there yet, the prices are cheaper than the shows!!!!!!). plus, tonight there is a show, and i wouldnt doubt that uncle axl is ready and willing to speak his mind/give something special.

the only bad thing, thanks to the cd not coming out this year, i have just lost 50 bucks. last time i will bet on GNR. fucking merck

does anyone know how large the flag poster? i really want it but im not sure how large it is.

i doubt everything will be calm. people will lose patience waiting for the next bit of info. but, thats to be expected for everything. i just hope this type of communication can continue. us being left in the dark is the worst thing you could do to fans. somehow i think that around the time of March 6th, we will have the album(it could be a couple weeks later, but from the sound of the article, it probably wont be more than that.)

for some reason, this just feels like axl teasing us. having bach say that the CD has a release date, and he knows it.....idk, the more and more i think about it, it seems as though dec 26 seems possible. think about it, the last tuesday, and suddenly, axl delivers. imagine the press they would get. GNR would be everywhere.

lol funny shit man...

thanks, its amazing what 2 minutes and photoshop can do

CD will be out first, Contraband 1.5 will be out second

Wow cool, could you scan the cover and the pages on Bumblefoot?

Thanks

yeah I'd like to see that too, please

me too please

i love bumping dont you?
