Bailey15 Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 The GN'R publicity machine missed out on the World Series last fall and the Harley ad appears to be tabled (hopefully). Do you guys think GN'R will take advantage of the Super Bowl (Feb. 4, 2007) to promote the disc which should be out March 6, 2007? This timeline fits in perfectly- think about this strategy....1) Release a single and video at the end of January which will introduce the new band to those who don't know about what's going on (radio play, etc.). This will create a buzz, then...2) Promote the album, and new single during the Super Bowl which will again re-introduce the band to the masses and maybe sway the people who heard the single and are on the fence about buying the album.3) maybe have a free public concert (about a week before release) in a major market (i.e. Central Park,) to re-introduce the band to the masses that now know that GNR is OFFICIALLY back. I think Aerosmith did something in NY when they released nine lives which created buzz.4) Release Album on March 6 and promote the hell out of the album!!!!!

Randy Jesus Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 The halftime show is already taken. However maybe a commercial will air depending on how things go and if Harley Davidson is willing to pay the cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know what performers will be there?- both the Halftime Show and the Pre-Game show?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah a perfect world would be great and putting their fans first would be ideal, but don't you know by now to take March 6th and any other 'statement' with a grain of salt and stop speculating that Axl & Co will do things they way they should be done?? Axl's been shooting himself in the foot for the last 4 years and he's running out of time.....fast. What's the purpose of this topic? Its so far fetched too - a super bowl show? free concert in central park? Are you high?They should do a 500 city tour, sign each pressing of the CD, do a meet and greet, etc, etc...just sit back and wait to see what happens next. You wanna be into the new band fine but these speculation topics are retarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey15 Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 (edited) Man, it's just a thought based on the fact that the wheel were in motion during the MLB playoffs. Are you saying that the HD commercials wouldn't have been run during the World Series if a November release date was set and confirmed?? I think they have an opportunity to replay this scenario with the world series -that's it, not a performance just advertising the album. The public concert is far fetched but just an idea for a band that has MIA for a decade for the majority of the public.

JONEZY Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Maybe Axl will attend the Super Bowl as a fan? It wouldn't be the first time, however the Raiders won't be there. It is in Miami, February is a nice time to be in Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys get on this website and bash the members, show sigs of ex members, hell even name themselves after ex members and we have one guy who uses a mass murderer and a terrorist in his name, thats cool, but to mention a SB commercial, now that is blasphemy. Damn, you guys are silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey15 Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 Sorry, this topic was not intended to be about "Guns playing during the Super Bowl". it was suppose to pose the question- Will we see some type of advertisement or related promotion for Chinese Democracy during the NFL playoffs and especially the Super Bowl?? I ask this because it appeared as if something was in the works for the MLB playoffs (Harley ad) but got delayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
