Would a gaureenteed release date 2 years from now be better then guessing?

[Mr Cowbell ?]

I just thought I would see what others think. If Axl was to come out and give a gaurenteed release date 2 years from now, The copies would come out on that day, Sept 8, 2006 would you prefer this then guessing day to day from the interviews the members hint at?

To me I would. I have been waiting and will continue to wait. Waiting is not the hardest thing for me. The hard thing is not knowing how long I got to wait. It may come out this year or early next which would be great. But I would rather just get an official date from AXL so I know when the wait will be over, I think that way the weight wouldnt seem so bad.

2 more years without with out justification wouldnt be good enough, at the moment we`re waiting for an announcement so we know how long to wait for cd - of course a guarenteed date is what we are ultimately looking at.
I wouldnt say we`re all guessing when it`ll be out (of course some are on here) but the way i see it we`re waiting 3months in advance, until the date comes. I think i would prefer to keep looking at it as 2-3months ahead, rather than 24 months away. It`ll happen at some point, i hope its sooner rather than later. But chill out

Part of me says yes, but what the hell would we talk about then?  I'm still hoping for a single this year, at the very least.

[Butch Français]

yes definately, we'll get it at least, we won't the way things are going now.

[liquidvirus]

YES!
anything is better rhan the present situation.
Gnr is an almost unknown term ("current" status wise)

[Dave_Rose]

Any day now

[Neemo]

the info we have know is really no different that 2 years ago or 10 years ago. I don't see any reason why NOW we need a definate release date. It'll hapen when it happens. Haven't we learned that yet?

[Johnnyblood]

That's a pretty good question. My answer is yes, I would like to get a guaranteed release date, even if it was two years in the future (although, it would have to come from a future-seeing space station, or martian computers, because even though Axl is behind this whole recording process, I don't think even he'll know when it's coming out until the date he announces it.) I would like to have known back in 1999, when we first heard about Bucket and OMG and the album title, that there were no vocals, no lyrics (in most cases), no completed band tracks, and probably even no sign that any of these things would be completed anytime soon, rather than thinking that an album would be coming "pretty soon" -- which was the implication from OMG, the Vegas and Rio shows, the VMA appearance, and the 2002 tour.

[Skeletor]

I prefer the current situation. There's always hope.

[the dirt]

It wouldn't be better. This way, we would only be guaranteed of absolutely no news for those two years.

Part of me says yes, but what the hell would we talk about then?? I'm still hoping for a single this year, at the very least.

We'd have plenty to talk about: The back and forth banter between people who believe the guaranteed release date an those who don't, the good old days, and Axl's hair.

Then, when something came up to delay the album in 2 years we'd talk about that!

[Izzy]

Axl would just delay or die before that deadline was reached. Any assurance he says is worthless

i would be skeptical and would not trust the release date jus cause it would be to far out into the future and anything could happen, this is gnr, it could still get pushed back nothing is ever a gaurentee but i would like gnr to keep their fans more updated on where they are in the process and what their doing with the album
