Here Today... Gone To Hell!

what about doing something like that :

http://bessamk.free.fr/tmp/fan/letterfromthefans.htm

we write a cool polite but shocking text
we put it simple on a page like that
we then sign all, all our name, at the bottom, with a counter

then we send the link to the majors news websites ( mtv, nme ...)

you know ...

nah ?
stupid idea ? i thought so ....

kwel

let axl know that we want a band ................not a bunch of scabs

and we all know who is in the band and who is the scab

I'd be very willing to write it Bessam, I have a GCSE A in English & Literature. ;)

If everyone poasts ideas about what to say we could pick the best ones and I could sort it all out and make it readable.

God Is Dead that is a brilliand idea. a support letter from the true fans. i dunno about anyone else. i bought a ticket and was trully hopping to see them, but now everyone is taking shit about Axl for ditching the gig, i'm only more fueled up and hopeful that CHINESE DEMOCRACY will shut everyone up. i have a very strong belief in Axl and i think he had lots of balls coming out and taking the blame for buckethead's fuck up. i'm all for Axl. and i'd really like to show him my support for the band. so yes, this letter is a great idea! count me in!

GN'R t'ILL I DIE!

So what are we looking for?

Dear Axl/Mr Rose

- This is a letter support?
- We're glad you've seen how much people have accepted the new line up, they rock?
- We're willing to wait for CD as long as it takes to be ready?
- The only problem we have is the long periods of silence that only ends when something bad happens?


Come on people, think! ;)

so... lets get this letter started already. : ok:

Dear Mr. Rose,

First off, can I call you Axl? Thanks.

Well, Axl, to be honest, this isn't a letter telling you just how much we want the new album, as much as we really DO want it.

This is a letter, that we hope will perhaps be the start of a lucrative and insightful conversation between the two of us, you and me.

I've been waiting a long time ... and still do wait. Patience, that's what we need .. right?

I could never say it's been a hard wait, for all the time I've spent in quiet (well, not completely) consideration of the possibilities that you (as GNR) could explore in that long-awaited endeavor of GNR's that is, Chinese Democracy, has been well spent, as I've grown and learnt to not just accept things as they appear. The latest proof of which has been BucketHead's departure, a tale which seemed prima facie simple enough, but turned out to be as obscure as the Bucketed One's identity.

And I've also begun to appreciate your previous endeavors in a new light, and the songs I'd once thought mediocre, or perhaps never understood, have grown on me.

I've been well, by the way, a few hitches but okay on the whole. And I really like the new line up. I won't lie... they're not .. the usual suspects. They're the odd bunch, but frankly the few of us that have seen your shows, have liked them.

But who is in the band doesn't really matter to me. And what you do and when you do it, well that's your call.

All I await, quietly and patiently, is your music.

Your lyrics - at times cryptic, at times to the point. The music, perhaps what I really want to know, is how each member has contributed to the SOUND of GN'R.

Yeah, the sound has changed, and you've come a long way. And I would love to hear it, to take quiet satisfaction in the stunned looks on the faces of people as the CD kicks in.

I know this must be tough on you, your first CD in years, and I know that the expectations are high, but you have nothing to fear... really. This is me, and that there's you. And what we are is just a man and his fan.  

But enough about me ...

So how've you been?

Signed
Your Fan (My Name's Below)

yeah anarchy, try to write one example, then people here will improve it, and we put it online

the faster we do it, the better it is, as a response to axl's letter ...
