Title: Logo Change Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on February 18, 2006, 05:30:57 PM It's been four years since the "tour". I would think they should change the logo. I'd like to see actual guns or roses incorporated into the design, the star never really did it for me. That star is nothing but bad luck, heck the U.S.S.R. collapsed under the red star.
Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: nonlinear on February 18, 2006, 05:32:05 PM yea i'm sure they'll have a new logo
actually, i wonder if it will even be called 'chinese democracy' they will have to use an alternate title in china if they keep it Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: 2NaFish on February 18, 2006, 05:35:25 PM It's been four years since the "tour".

That star is nothing but bad luck, heck the U.S.S.R. collapsed under the red star. sorry to nitpick but was their symbol not the crossed sycle (sp) and hammer. the red star is just a generic socialist symbol. Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on February 18, 2006, 05:37:46 PM Ya, but I meant since the star was everywhere. That was just their flag, they had stars everywhere else, on top of buildings, etc....
Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: 2NaFish on February 18, 2006, 05:40:09 PM good, that'll make the marketing job in russia that much easier. just buy up their old propoganda material and re-use it. i'm sure i could photoshop a KFC bucket on to Stalin's head.
Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: nonlinear on February 18, 2006, 05:40:37 PM yea i think garry is referring to this:

Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on February 18, 2006, 05:47:17 PM Just bringing up a point that it was bad luck for GN'R: the soviets were just a historical thing I brought up. That star doesn't really say "Guns N' Roses". It was outdated right from the start, I'm surprised Rage Against the Machine didn't sue.
Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: Ax on February 18, 2006, 06:01:43 PM I always liked the look of the star logo and liked the fact that Axl was changing the logo from the old one. But I felt that the star logo and all the chinese writing on stage etc. had a limited life cycle after Chinese Democracy was released. So a change to a logo that would be suitable for the long run (however long that might be) of the new gnr would be preferable. Bring back a logo that incorporates guns and roses like the old one did I say.

Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: The Terminator on February 18, 2006, 07:20:36 PM The original band changed logos a few times though, so who knows, Axl may well do it again when he returns.
Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: dangnr on February 18, 2006, 08:21:05 PM All we be revealed soon!!
For all we know the album might have a totally different name now Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on February 18, 2006, 08:46:48 PM Personally, I thought the Chinese guy with a bike in front of GN'R graffiti was kind of lame, an album of this caliber should have a powerful cover.
Title: Re: Logo Change Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on February 23, 2006, 01:11:28 AM They have the new logo here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guns_n_roses I don't know if it's official or not, but it's an improvement.
