check it out , the gnr stuff comes on 16 minutes in .. they talk about the leaks , paparazzi at the label headquarters and band members not aloud to give interviews for the next few weeks cause an announcemen t is forthcoming. Also they speculate that zakk wylde gave piazza the trunk cd

Cool, Thanks ...

HAHA! I can see Zakk give him that CD. They are friends and Mike does bleed black so Its possible. Gag order for a few weeks? That means no official word soon.

Thanks saul.. Can someone transcript what Merck says?

I'll try.. they are talking about the leaks now.. merck isn't on yet.

Merck isn't interviewed he is "a topic of discussion".

Big news here is that all GNR band members are under a gag order for the next 2-3 weeks and cannot give interviews.

The two DJ's love the new tracks. They don't believe the CD will be out in March. They make sence on how the stores know when CD's will be out.. And the limited promotion. They think something is going on tho.. Axl in public, leak tracks, and the band members being on gag order.. They hope official word is coming up soon. Rumors on the festivals(which are now confirmed).. And then Ozzfest.. And they think that would be perfect.

basically the new gnr members are under a gag oder for the last 7 years.... :hihi:

Thanks DunkinDave, downloading now... :)

Thank you DukinDave.  :beer:

Highlights:

1. band members have a gag order for the next 2-3 weeks.

2. Axl is hanging out in NYC near the Sanctuary offices in Chelsea which is near the Homestead Steakhouse

3. GnR is confirmed to do dates in Europe early summer but may take up a slot in Ozzfest which these announcers believe would be perfect for them

4. No indication that the original line up is coming back in any form

5. All believe that something is happening and an announcement is due in the next couple of weeks

6. Merck had been very sick recently which caused him to be out of the offices for an extended period of time.

Very cool.  Thanks.

Thats REALLY dick of Zakk if you ask me.  Very unprofessional.  Pretty lame of Piazza too...never was a fan of him.....that was sooo awesome when Roger beamed that big head of his hahaha.

we should get skynard girl to kick them both square in the nuts!

;)

These announcers also alluded to the fact that Piazza may have gotten the GnR tracks from a friend who is an accomplished guitarist and mutual friend of Axl.

I clicked on the link but did not see anything to dl............ :no:

Click the "Free" button.

I love the Ricky Rachtman mention.....hehe that dudes still around?  I used to love how everyone made fun of him on head bangers ball....

Great update, thanks the the heads up on this.  Something is DEF happening soon.

I did, but it just goes to another page with paypal options...........

I must be tired..............

All the mention of what they were drinking, guess the Dj's on Talking metal are paid to name drop. I bet many gunners will be hanging at that steakhouse near Santuary Records, in hope that A. just might pop im  :hihi:

No mention of Bucket being in the band, although he did mention Stinton, Gilby and some else...

Thanks Dankin and Saul. BTW I didn't know mr Aleister Crowley was still around. ???
=we'll hear something official in a few weeks.
near the stakehouse :hihi:

Thanks god.

Bird flu? :no:

If the band members are under a gag order someone should try getting an interview with Slash.  That would prove or disprove the whole situation.  I would try but I haven' talked to Slash in years :rofl:  (No, I'm not trying to claim to be Axl)

i guess we`ll get the announcement this week..... but we`ll see

by the way... these guys don`t know about the confirmed dates, so from when is it?  can?t be that old either...

So is this gonna actually be it folks?  The actual announcement for the release of Chinese Democracy?  God I can't wait
