Axl_morris Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) I'm sorry I can't remember the exact quote, but perhaps, it's true?We all took it that he was joking, but perhaps there's more truth in the matter?

Estranged Reality Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 He was taking the piss out of us and deliberately trying to evoke a reaction from the Internet fanbase. This was right around the time when he, Axl and Del James criticized the whiners and speculators on the Internet; this was clearly a dig aimed at those of us who made a new post every week trying to guess which Tuesday it would be out on.It would be literally impossible in this day and age. Not only would Universal reject this idea (they, after all, invested $15 million and want to regain profit), stuff would leak beforehand. If the album cover is being designed, or a track list is being confirmed, or mastering is being finished, or so on and so forth, we would hear something from somebody, somewhere.Just like the Spider-Man 3 trailer with Venom. That thing was kept in ultra-secret-mega top secret security. NO ONE was allowed access to it. Yet someone - just one person - got a hold of it somehow and posted it on the Internet and it was viewed millions of times.One person is all it takes. And an album as mystical as Chinese Democracy would never make it to the shelves without some kind of advance leak/notification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain_Train_99 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 word would leak before that would happen anyway, plus, that'd be stupid. so i guess itll probably happen if mercks in charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 Well, I guess that ends this thread.I'm just trying to think of hope or what went wrong and why aren't they telling us, when they said it was this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrettyTiedUp763 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I have nothing against Merck. He does not even need to communicate with us at all. But the worst thing GNR could do is just drop the album like that. It would crash and burn for sure. I'm sorry but its how I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianD Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I don't think a total surprise release date is possible. The sad thing is, if the album is by some miracle finished, Universal is probably wasting even more money by keeping it this secretive. When the record is done, we will start seeing leaked imagery of the cover art, and leaked tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
