Bumblefoot looks like he'd be in a Carnegie Deli menu or something. How Rock N' Roll.......they're animated. Like the New Kids on the Block cartoon ::).

Alright just finished checking this all out. Interesting. No picture of Robin in the pics but there is some Buckethead love. I like that. I love that Buckethead seems to be in a cool working relationship with Axl. They are still cool and there is obviously a lot of respect there. It says a lot about Bucket and Axl. Very postive all around. Dear Science....6 days!!!

There is a site which will play a 30 sec clip of each song out there somewhere- You can pre-order there as well- it is not in english and I forget where I saw it- assuming the post would be deleted anyway if I put the link here.

Haha, I'm glad to see that other fan(atics) are feeling the same way I am :hihi:
I try planning as much as I can for these last few days to make the days go by faster, I am also trying to play video games and read alot when I'm not doing anything to make time go faster. God this is unbearable! I've lasted 17 years and now 5 fucking days are killing  me! :rofl:

Did anyone else notice that "If The World" appeared on the setlist (picture 10 in the album)? There's another song that looks like "Swayze" or "Nwayze" but I can't quite make it out (just above Perfect Crime).

They played "Sway" by the Stones before... that's probably what the song is on the setlist.  The part after could be just scribbling (or maybe someone put the "ze" in there as a joke).

So can we assume Robin is still in the band ? ??? He is on pics and the commercials, as long as in all concert footage. :beer:

If they included him in the widgets it has a reason right ?

Prostitute is also on that list. I'm wondering if they were seriously considering playing previously never heard songs?

Ok I've uploaded the main widget with the album, videos, pics etc to my site so those with windows XP can put it on their desktop!

Follow these instructions to add it to your desktop.
You need to add it manually to the active desktop!
To do this go to your desktop and right click, select "properties" in the display properties window that pops up select the "desktop" tab then "customise desktop" near the bottom of this window, in the new window select the "web" tab, select "new" in the window that pops up then add the url in the "location" field in the new window, click ok then click ok when it asks to add this item to your active desktop, click on ok on the remaining windows and it should now be on your desktop, I had to resize the window for the widget on the desktop to display the widget properly using the mouse to drag the corners.

This is the URL I uploaded the widget to http://home.exetel.com.au/blackrose/gnrwidget.htm (http://home.exetel.com.au/blackrose/gnrwidget.htm) I hope it works for you all. : ok:

 :beer:

Edit: I have uploaded the other widgets as well for those that would like them!
Axl widget http://home.exetel.com.au/blackrose/axlwidget.htm (http://home.exetel.com.au/blackrose/axlwidget.htm)
Bumblefoot widget http://home.exetel.com.au/blackrose/bumblefootwidget.htm (http://home.exetel.com.au/blackrose/bumblefootwidget.htm)

Oh yea. Gave this some more thought. It might not have worked out with Bucket touring with Axl and GN'R but, that doesn't mean they aren't cool with each other and have great respect for each other. I can see them continuing to collaborate in the future. Buckethead is always welcome in the crazy strange ass beautiful world of Guns N' Roses.

edit: Just wanted to add how much I am looking forward to hearing Bucket on CD. Its beyond cool that he is on it.

GUNS N' ROSES Spinlets Widgets, urFooz Cards Report Over Ten Million Views - Dec. 2, 2008

FUHU Inc., leading the market in connecting people and content across their favorite destinations, has reported over ten million views in the first week of their GUNS N' ROSES Spinlets widgets and urFooz cards of Axl Rose and Bumblefoot on MySpace, positioning the company as the dominant music widgets provider, facilitating extension of music brands and personal information across the social networking space.

Spinlets are new information-rich music widgets that let users place favorite artists' videos, links, pictures, MP3s, ring-tones, news and more on their own favorite sites (www.spinlets.com) while urFooz are the newest in interactive portable profiles that, like a virtual baseball card, depict the user's own avatar on one side and the user's profile, favorite pictures, music, links and videos on the reverse (www.urfooz.com). urFooz gives users the ability to share information across their favorite social networks with a single virtual identity card.

FUHU launched its "Chinese Democracy" Spinlets widgets featuring its Best Buy partnership and including the band's MP3s, photos, videos and more. The GN'R Spinlets widgets have averaged over 1.4 million views per day and have been placed by users over 2,500 times on new websites. FUHU's urFooz card of Axl Rose has racked up over 1,750,000 views in its first week on the band's MySpace page.

"Widgets are transforming how music content is consumed, shared and distributed," said FUHU CEO, Jim Mitchell. "We are excited to showcase our technology with this historic album release and we are proud to help use social networking to give fans access to more GUNS N' ROSES content whenever they want it, wherever they want it. Our widgets come backed by powerful analytics which have allowed us to track their adoption to every corner of the world.?

FUHU is the leader in music widgets with a music catalog of more than 300 leading artists who have partnered with Spinlets and urFooz to exploit the value of extending their audiences to the social network widget landscape.
