Sanctuary

[Danieljones343]

This has come from Sp1at.

Sanctuary are, allegedly, applying moderate pressue on Axl to release CD this year.

This has come from various sources, and is partly the reason I/we are pushing the 2005 release date.

Thought you guys might like to discuss it!

[Jim Bob]

thats not surprising considering the statements Merck has made this year

but axl's gonna release it when he's ready, not when sanctuary is 

[Thorazine Shuffle]

All I can say is I wish Sanctuary the best of luck. 

[mike_giuliana]

I agree with JB

Anyways if they knew 2005 was the year they would be promoting something in general, not just 2005 will be the year.. The minute that date would be set they would start the promotion..

[DoubleTalkingJive]

Depends how much pressure

[odd1]

I dont think they should pressure Axl to much, they may open pandoras box.
We all know he has a temper !

Get in line Sanctuary!

BTW, thanks to sp1at for that ground breaking tidbit. Lol... I guess it's better than nothing. Nothing new in the past few weeks, and nothing real in the past few years. Damn I love this band!

theres no reason for any of the fans to be putting pressure on the guy.  management, record label yes those guys can.  we as fans have no right to demand shit from axl.

Can we please not have the "I agree" "Yeah me three" posts? Only post if you have something to contribute to the conversation.

Thanks.

I agree AdZ (sorry, couldn't help it)

I really don't see how anyone will be able to pressure Axl into releasing CD. I'm sure people have tried before and look what we have: nothing. I just don't see what leverage anyone has over Axl.

[WARose]

Does this mean that Sanctuary is the new Label of GnR?

You know, I always thought that too.
Then the past few years I grew up and began to see how things really work.

Axl owes us everything.
He would either be dead from a drug overdose, or still playing in bars if it wasn't for the devotion of his fans.

It's a great cycle:
Man creates music.
Fans support man.

But when he's not giving us any music... why should we support him?

So really.. Axl should take a look at his mansion and limos and platnum records.
Without us, he wouldn't have any of that.

So yeah,
I think we have every right in the world to deman SOMETHING from Axl.
Even something as simple as a fucking explanation.

[AxlsMainMan]

Unless Merck is more than just a buisness connection in Axl's eyes, I dont see pressure from Sanctuary amounting to anything more than what it did for Geffen in the past...

Why don't we have a right, we buy everything, we support him meaning no matter what even as pissed off as we get we still would see his concert, by t-shirts, vote for him in music poles, have forums dedicated to him, by the cd, so why not??? Ryan is right and everybody else that has been saying this since his failed tour, give us an explaination, a statement [not the BH thing] something more to the fans along the lines of what's going on.? He would take so much pressure off of him as far as the fans are concerned if he just reached out a little.

I totally agree with you, Jive. Axl's complete disappearance just doesn't make sense anymore. I can understand his disappearance for the first 4 or 5 years of the wait. He wanted to build this up to a mythical status. But the continued silence is mind boggling. He let things get out of control. Now in the publics eye, CD has to be the Holy Grail. Axl can only blame himself for this. If he had kept his fans informed over the past few years there definitely wouldn't be as much pressure. And it doesnt look like the wait for CD or the silence will be ovr anytime soon. Sometimes I wonder if this whole CD thing is nothing but a hoax.

[WAR41]

ryan,

you better watch out, some people on this board are going to be gunning for you soon!  Hahaha how dare you say that Axl owes his fans something who have supported him through it all!

I have said this same thing before and people get in this big hissy fit about it.  Money is the name of the game, and if Axl did not have any money you can bet that this album would have been released years ago and we probably would have had a reunion show by now. 

I made the analogy months ago that GNR fans are like battered wives.  They take the silence everyday and are virtually ignored, yet they still fork out $$$ for his shitty merchandise that is put out.  So you people are to blame for it.  You support his laziness, oh wait, wrong term, you people call it "perfectionism".  Yes that is what it is. 

Its been said before man... I am on your side, but just wait for the barrage of insults from the Axl lovers

[jameslofton29]

I agree. Without our lifetime loyalty, Axl would be nothing. His hardcore fanbase is the only thing that keeps him from being a total has been joke. Axl, its time to deliver the goods.
