Post by: hunterwh on May 01, 2007, 12:48:37 AM
i don't think this has been posted before. I looked and didn't see anything but there is some article here from Gibson about Richard: http://www.gibsoneurope.com/smartsite.dws?id=8120
Can anyone translate?

VERY ROUGH translation with assistance from freetranslation.com
In some places the translation might not be correct, but I reworded it as best as I could to make sense

Over 10 years in the making; estimated production costs of 15 million dollars.  Yet this year it should appear........

Axl rose, a man, a myth:  Chinese Democracy. 

After the brilliant return of Axl Rose and his men to Europe, Guns and Roses are on an extended tour through the USA and Canada now.  The feedback of the fans is amazing.  Each concert is a sellout, with many additional shows booked.

According to rumours Axl Rose and the new Guns N' roses are returning in the spring again for a headlining European tour -  with the release of the new album "Chinese Democracy"

Robin Finck, Bumblefoot and Richard Fortus, all three GNR guitarists,  rely on the classic - Gibson Guitars.  [Referring to the attached photos on the  website]  GNR guitarist Richard Fortus is live onstage in Cleveland, Ohio, with the newest addition to the Gibson family - A modified Paul 57 Custom V. O. S. 


---------And the last part is just referring to additional links for information on Fortus and GNR


I hope this helps

An article that actually praises GN'R, I'm surprised.  Nice write-up though.

From this I guess the plan was to release the album then tour Europe again, so from that I would think that the CD may be out after the Mexico/Oz/Japan dates then they will tour Europe in the late Summer / Autumn (Fall).

Why is it a surprise? Three guitarists endorsing Gibson products praised by Gibson. Shocking!
