It mentions Catcher in the Rye being filmed in China - was this ever verified? I never heard of this before and was just curious as to its authenticity. This was back in 2002 mind you.

Title: Re: What happened to this news article? Post by: Voodoochild on June 23, 2006, 11:21:24 AM I don't think CITR would be the first single... This rumour obviously wasn't true.

Neemo, didn't he say he went there a few years back to travel around? Maybe it's different thing. I think I've seen a pic of axl allegedly taken in a pub in china somewhere.

I think I've seen a pic of axl allegedly taken in a pub in china somewhere. oh maybe....i can't really remeber i only listened to that interview once...i thought he said that the whole band went though :-\ Title: Re: What happened to this news article? Post by: ppbebe on June 23, 2006, 12:16:33 PM I donno. I think he said we whoever "we" were.
Title: Re: What happened to this news article? Post by: codenameninja on June 23, 2006, 12:29:14 PM I wonder what the first video will look like? (your ideas)
1. (worse case senario) various shots from the recent live gigs :-\ 2. (better than 1.) something abstract, shots of locations, the band are not seen 3. A proper video, the band out and about in some place (maybe China) struting their stuff :beer: 4. Can't think of a 4th Title: Re: What happened to this news article? Post by: Neemo on June 23, 2006, 12:34:09 PM i found it in part 3 (14:30 long segment) @ about 5:30 mark to the 6:00 mark
Quote Bach: And than you were telling me the other day that you lived in China for three months? Axl: Yeah, we went and stayed in China for about three months, Beijing, Shanghai, and Xian Bach: What was that like? Axl: Well....he filmed, like.....you know they eat alot of bugs? Bach: What is it like the Fear Factor show? Axl: Absolutely Trunk: How long ago did you live there? Bach: Did you eat bugs? Axl: Well, I didn't live there, we just went and stayed there a couple of years ago. Trunk: A couple of years ago. That inspired the name of the album at all? Axl: No it was before that but then I just thought I should go. I wanted to go before they banned me. So, you know, I mean Chinese Democracy that doesn't quite work for the government over there. that is from the transcript @ gnrfrance. I would assume "we" to be the band but no you are right ppbebe, he didn't specifically say who "We" actually is Title: Re: What happened to this news article? Post by: Natasha23 on June 23, 2006, 01:02:39 PM I assumed "we" was Axl, Beta, etc.

Sounds like he started mentioning something about filming and quickly changed topic... Title: Re: What happened to this news article? Post by: ppbebe on June 23, 2006, 07:28:28 PM Quote Bach: What is it like the Fear Factor show? I must check the audio but I guess he meant that china was like someone filmed (=what we see on a certain film.) On topic, Like voodoo said, Catcher is unlikely to be the first single. Also, I don't see the point in filming a video for the song in china, unless there're better rye fields or something. @jsg2295 For luck, lets forget about that original video idea for SCOM for now. :-\ Quote Axl: we just went and stayed there a couple of years ago. My bad it wasn't a few years ago. From what I can gather some of the members were rather busy in 2004 that they couldn't have been there for 3 months. Title: Re: What happened to this news article? Post by: sic. on June 23, 2006, 07:55:45 PM This is from Metal Sludge:
We had the following sent to us from a DJ at a radio station. They are doing an interview with Axl and his management sent over the following info to them: d) He spent some time in China and wrote songs there - what was it like? - HTGTH News, December 6th, 2002 (http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/news/shownews.php?newsid=586) Axl was in China before the '02 tour, possibly even before the '01 gigs. |
