Things really seem to be fallin into place, unlike at other times, and to me that is very positive, and btw, thanks tommy.

Actually,  this goes to show that it is only a paycheck that is the concern here in,  years later, the 'what are you going to do with yourself, be Bob Dylan?'  approach.

this message from Tommy puts a smile on my face, but i've thanked him enough times from heaps of msg's.............sounds fuckin' good though......were nearly there

but at the end of the day, im still waitin' for Chinese fuckin' Democracy

i work for a company that produces console games. we've just finished a product that has a release date of late November. we've just had to rush it through to get the game into production on time (disc/box production) the actually game and all artwork is finished but to get that late november release date the product had to go to the manufacturer yesterday. the european shop orders of over 2 million were completed long ago.

now i know that console game production and music CD production are very different and maybe there's a way to rush CD prodution and distibution through quicker than for computer games..... BUT on the basis of what i have experienced (many times!) unless shops already have an order for 'Chinese Democracy' and some warehouse is producing the discs now, then it won't be out before december. And if it is to be released this year then they've only got a few weeks before they'll have to start all that. And if shops did have orders on for CD then we'd probably have heard about it by now.

don't want to put a downer or anything, and like i say it may be quicker in the world of music - but my experience of games is that the disc production takes a couple of months from finished product to release date.

iloozion,

What would the timetable be for a February '06 release? I think that's what we're probably looking at...
