The Sandman Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 The only thing that seems slightly unbelievable is the fact that Axl's chauffeur carries around a copy of Chi Dem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patience 4 Axl Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 The New York Post is one of the top 3 newspapers in NYC. It's "page six" is the celebrity rumor section. It is usually credible information with reliable sources. Anything is possible, but i would believe this story for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashlar Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 it sounds like his chauffer was instructed to go back to the hotel and pick up axl's disc collection or something. that seems unlike axl to be that risky with his recordings, unless he has known the dood for years.

busngabb Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 The article mentions Axl rolling up with his homies and some fluffs.We know Richie Fortus was in town for a gig, does anyone have a confirmed location on any of the other band members? Tommy Stinson and Dizwald are usually pretty easy to locate as they are always busy playing shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Appetite For Waiting Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 What sort of idiot - and one who has long been obsessed about having his work bootlegged - would show up in a club in this day and age of MP3 and mobile phone recorders and play music that he has poured his life into for the last fifteen years? The whole album could have been bootlegged by hundreds of different people!And what sort of club wouldn't let Axl Rose in? I mean, it not as though he was once the biggest rock star in the world, is it?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavgnr Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 (edited) you know what? I think that this sounds so bizarre that it could just be the kind of crazy fuckin shit that happens prior to a release. I do hope it's true because it would be a good fuckin sign.and what's more, I can't see that someone would make this shit up Edited February 12, 2006 by gavgnr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joker Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 (edited) As the article states the owners were locking up for the night when Axl showed up and bribed them with Chinese Democracy to keep the club open for him and who ever was with him.

yourSerpentine Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 hmm.. sounds like good gossip to stir up buzz about Chi Dem...but at the same time... Chi Dem has been in the making for at least 15 years, it could possibly be some of Axls best work.... how drunk would he have to be to trade that in for a couple hours on his 44th?? it could've happened, it just doesnt seem to be worth it.. with or without Chi Dem playing.. i wish i was there none-the-less...

W. Axl Kev Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 (edited) I got the impression they were the only people in the club?Me too. It seems a decent story but it's the 'carrying of Chinese Democracy around' that is the unbelievable part. Perhaps he came to the club with Chinese Democracy because he thought that would be the thing that would win over the owner?EDIT: Madison just posted this in Newswire. I never saw it the first time Axl dispatched his driver to retrieve the unreleased CD and the owners proceeded to play host, bartender and DJ to the posse till 8 a.m. Edited February 12, 2006 by W.
