Thanks VH1 they seem to always give Guns some good credit. Think what Axl will be able to do with Chinese this still proves the public loves Guns N Roses well at least the North East. How did they far in the other regions?

Not in the Top 10 on the national or the other regional Top 10s. /jarmo Title: Re: GN'R on VH1's 3rd Annual Holiday CD Poll Post by: MR.BROWNSTONE on December 15, 2004, 03:54:37 PM That's cool to see them in the top ten for the Northeast region. 8) Kinda alittle shocked to see that because after all Philly is in the Northeast region and a few other shows that never happen from the last tour are also. I guees they most of them forgot about it and just want to hear the new ablum.
