Randy Lahey Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) Axl must have set some sort of record with all the release dates that "Chinese Democracy" has had. I feel confident that Axl's record will stand the test of time. The only fucker crazy enough to break his record, "Whacko Jacko", is too old to do it at this point.

Peoples idea of what a 'real fan' is is always subjective anyway.Hopefully when the guys get back to the states, Axl will issue a statement about the record. I mean, he hasnt got the tour to hide behind now. He's gonna have to let us know one way or the othersurely he's gotta...right?... rock2 Edited July 21, 2007 by Mrs Axl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarmyBritJo Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Did a check of all the popular music stores and quite a few have chinese democracy listed now and ALL have the same date 17th Sept 07HMVPlay.comAmazonVirginTescoAs someone who often checks to see who has it listed this is the first time I've found it on so many places and all with the same potential release dates too, usually they all have different ones or none at all! So is that a possibility or is it just another guess by the music stores? Clutching at straws but desperatly wishing this is the real deal!Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarmyBritJo Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 *sigh* I know but I can't help but hope! You never know there might be no fanfare just the album appearing in the shops, after all the wrong dates maybe Axl's given up on announcing anything.Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaneisKing1389 Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 September 17th is too close without hearing ANYTHING about it. I really doubt that CD will ever come out. It's not even an album I bet. He's written like 5 songs that he'll continue to play live for cash until a reunion (probably unlikely) will happen.

New Rose Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Has the fuckhead said any reason why it isn't out yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downzy Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 (edited) This album will come out for no other reason than money. If Axl and company decided to shelve their efforts it's going to cost them millions. The money fronted to them by the record company has to be paid back somehow. As rich as Axl is, I doubt he'd want to eat $15 million or so based on what's been reportedly given to the band to write, record and produce Chinese Democracy.This album will not be out September 17th. A single would have hit the airwaves a few weeks ago (mid-July) had this been the targeted date. While there exists no standard as to the amount of time between first single and album release, generally it's in the two-three month range. Velvet Revolver's first single for Libertad came out I believe at the beginning of May while the album was released July 5th (just off the top of my head). At this point, the earliest Chinese Democracy is able to hit store shelves is early to mid October. If this album is to come out this year, November seems the most likely. Rumors have been floating around that the major promotional push will start in October.Here's hoping anyway.Cheers,Andrew Edited August 3, 2007 by downzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elnombre Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Not a chance in hell of it being September. We already know it would take at least a solid 6-8 weeks of promotion before the release. When it comes out, we'll know for sure it's coming out. Press ads would be being prepared, promos would be being pressed etc. Someone would pass the news on.

Every fan of rock music knows what it is. I doubt we'll ever see it though. I'm not even going to care if it's not this year. It's enough time thinking about it.And yes, Jessica Alba is a goddess.

KBear Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I'd love to know who the initial source for this date was. The exact same day the Illusions came out. I guess it would make some sense to release it Sept 17...they can promote the album and tie it in with the UYI release. Show the line ups from back in 1991. Build anticipation that way, because let's face it, this album only means what it does right now because of GN'R's past. UYI was an historic release. 20th anniversary of AFD too. VR with an album, there's a bit of a rivalry there to play up. Axl is in pretty good form. VMAs a week before. They could actually take advantage of a lot of things right now. They may not do tons of promo until the album is out, therefore short lead time from when we know till when the album is on store shelves.VMA performance on Sept 9th. Promo starts that day, single released that day. Huge buzz. Album one week later. Ensures that the album comes out while anticipation is strong and getting stronger.Here I am actually thinking something might be brewing. I should know better than that by now.What will probably happen is that Dizzy will have a show that same night, all but ruling out a GN'R performance (doesn't he seem to always have a show the night of the VMA's?). Nevertheless, rumours will swirl (including the obligatory Axl was spotted at the show with straight hair and a bandana) and we will all tune in like we do every year and sit through three hours of this year's disposable shit like Linkin Park and Papa Roach in the hopes that we will see Axl Rose. A "surprise performance" will close the night and we will all piss ourselves during the last commercial break thinking it must be Axl, then they will come back and it'll be the Spice Girls reunion.I've been through this a few times now.

droezle Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 (edited) Has the fuckhead said any reason why it isn't out yet?I guess you're talking about Axl?? The correct name for him is redhead not fuckhead. On topic to answer your question. No,he didn't gave us any reason at all. March 6th has been passed long ago and since that date we didn't got any news from the album. Enjoy the silence Edited August 4, 2007 by droezle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bax Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 If it were September we would definitely be seeing major promotion by now. IF it's this year it'll be around Christmas and promo will start very soon, but I'm not counting on it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phaeryen Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 we can start the christmas release rumors already. c'mon lets stir something up for the sake of nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we will not see the album anyway.okay, so I called the manager of this store who usually has the inside scoop on things. He said to call this one certain number, a pr/publicist guy for this major music biz pr firm over here, and this guy said after he answered his goddamned cell that he'd heard that some pal of his over there in the states is doing the PR shoots for GN'R, theyve been goin on for over a week now!!!!!
