I reckon there will be a speech about jukeboxes before they launch into the song for the first time. Wouldn't count on it to be mentioned tommorow because I don't think it'll be played, or be out by then. Friday seems more likely, I mean how is he gonna mention this and then not play the song lol Edited August 14, 2023 by StrangerInThisTown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Guapo Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 If they don't release it on friday and just don't mention it at all - that would be a GREAT time for new leaks! Unbelievable XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes of course it's possible but I mean I wouldn't count on it. Also yes there's no way Rolling Stone is writing news about this and Axl not knowing what's going on. Of course he knows lmao maybe he even gave someone "the corn" for fucking up like this Edited August 14, 2023 by StrangerInThisTown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 18 minutes ago, StrangerInThisTown said: Someone could test if mentioning Atlas gets you banned or a warning, that way we would know if Fernando replied to the mods confirming it to be real to them. Because if simply mentioning Atlas doesn't get you banned/it removed then why would they pull fanmade art off the platform? The only option that is left then is that it is real, isn't it? Or if it was fake presented as real, which was most likely the case here. The "Atlas artwork" was first posted on 4chan. That says it all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the point in speculating this way? There's 1000 scenarios if we go by what could have happened. It's better to go by what we know for a fact, and that is that it's probably not coming out with those lyrics it has, or had. you're the one assuming things we don't know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlRoseCDII Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Saying GNR wouldn’t have delayed it just to spite us is giving the band too much credit. This is the same band that has had Beta swearing and belittling fans, along with snarky comments from Fernando before. I absolutely believe they would shelve this release to punish us for listening to it early. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyVinyard Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 My wishful thinking is that Axl pulled it because the Slash solo is so terrible. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megaguns1982 Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Why on earth would they pull it from release at the last minute? This band is seriously disorganised, I remember someone from GnR said years ago that atlas was supposed to be on CD but it got switched out at the very last minute, it’s probably a similar situation, a last minute change of mind. No idea why, but hopefully it was to replace that god awful solo. slash can do so much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Atlas artwork" was first posted on 4chan. That says it all. Did the poster say something about it, how was it presented as real? I mean what was it that gave it the impression it isn't fanart? I'm not sure you really need to clearly label every art you make as fanmade for it to not be removed.. This could again be tested by simply taking a random piece of art and slapping the GNR name and Atlas Shrugged on it, see if it gets taken down.

The Real McCoy Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 I’m somewhat close with the manager of one of the biggest pop acts in the world right now. I’m tempted to run this clusterfuck by him to get his thoughts. If he wasn’t ridiculously busy at the moment, I would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely believe they would shelve this release to punish us for listening to it early. The main problem with this theory is that it takes as given that their plans (whatever they are) about these releases revolve around us. But their release pattern suggests that releases happen when they tour NA, so they're mostly about helping promote the tour, and not about us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
