FinckFortus Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I think it is safe to assume that HD will run this ad right through the coming months. (The better version that is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiff Competition Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 yeah, the world series thing is so fuckin ridiculous. If it were to air during the world series, it would be because of a connection between mlb, or fox, or whatever the station and harley davidson, not gnr. This is not a guns n' roses commercial as many of you seem to think, it is a harley commercial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bax Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 yeah, the world series thing is so fuckin ridiculous.

This is not a guns n' roses commercial as many of you seem to think, it is a harley commercial.The world series thing may indeed be far-fetched, but we already know there is definitely a cross-promotional deal between MLB and GN'R. Since the baseball season ends after the world series and won't begin again until next spring, there must be some benefit for GN'R in the deal. You are correct that the HD ad is a product of relationships between corporations and not a GN'R commercial per se, but it will feature parts of an unreleased track for an album that has been promised for this year. Clearly the purpose of the ad from GN'R's standpoint is to promote CD just like HD wants to hype motorcycles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunzen Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Damn you guys, HD would not make a "mistake" on their web page. Jesus. They obviously just put it there to start a buzz. Kinda like when CBS leaked a fake image of one of those "castaways" or whatever they called em got crossed out on the web page before the show aired. Everyone thought the web page bugged and expected that person to be kicked out in the following show and he wasn't 'till the very end. They were just yanking around all the comp geeks. Just like us. It is a marketing ploy to get the buzz going, like a tease. And it worked cause you guys have been theorizing 'bout it for days. Do you REALLY think HD could make that mistake and leave it out for as long as it was? Did you guys know the word "gullible" was removed from webster dictionary?????
