slash says chinese democracy starts in march

[snead hearn]

I wonder if anyone else has quoted this yet. Call me crazy, but if it hasn't been posted, I thought I'd put forth:

With the title being "Chinese Democracy", the Tianammen date is April 22. And the peak time of the workers strike was May 18/19-would this have anything to do?. Slash throwing a date of March-maybe this would be a release for a single? Then have the album release on the anniversary of the Square or the Workers strike?

Completely random thought. But I was just reading Toffler's "Powershift" and it clicked in me head.

Also, back in Dec 02, at MSG, Axl said "See you next summer!". Could the release have been April or May 03 and a summer 03 tour would have happened?

Back under the rock I go.

[Voodoochild]

You forgot the media, kv.

Mysteron, I have a board. I know how people deal with this kind of frustration... I didn't say it was Axl's problem, though.

[mikegiuliana]

Of course not. But was his choice to say something about this album. He knows if it turns out to be wrong, everybody would blame Axl, not him.

Also, the subject wasn't brought by the DJ, Slash could have only talked about the new band. But he wanted to talk about Chinese in march and talked like it was for real this time. Well, either he is just naive or he didn't care much to say something not so reliable just to laugh about it later.

why would people blame axl if what he said was wrong?? Not like he said axl told him.. ANyways by now the blame has been on axl already even if he never mentioned it

there's a quote running out there where axl said something about several albums an dtouring like the illusions with "short" breaks in between, like tour the winter then a spring or summer tour then rest etc..

You already said the answer. If nothing happens again, who's to blame?

I'm saying axl is already to blame because of his saying things about cd already.. No one is going to give direct blame if what slash said is not true.... I'm still waiting for axl next summer that he said in 02

This is amazing news, It's great to hear Slash talking so highly about Axl, and it's awesome to know that he's not saying fucked up things about Axl, the future seems to be looking bright for GNR so glad that Slash brought up Chinese Democracy!?

[MR W,AXL ROSE]

each day that goes by without hearing anything off the GNR camp makes me think less of what slash said.i think if its true about march for an album or a single then we sould hear very soon but till then,im gonna treat this like any rumour.but i still have my fingers crossed.

[Mr. Dick Purple]

I think my promise of give beer to everyone in here when CD is release is coming true! 
I just cross my fingers so it makes real, also i made a shrine with a candle so CD gets release 

[-Jack-]

So, why not just shut up untill is 100% sure?

Because then we wouldnt hear shit from anybody and this site would be dead by now. Thats why.

[Evolution]

Im gonna hold you to that one 

[mikegiuliana]

well it's the second week of january, if we were getting a march release I think something would be said damn quick or it isn't going down

[Jonathan]

You are right.

Does 'Chinese Democracy' come out in march? I don't think so, but if it does they must have some damn fast and good promotion for it.

[sic.]

What makes Slash's comments interesting is the fact that the trial is scheduled to begin on March 28th.

These two events in the GNR world cannot happen in the same month, it's impossible. Slash saying these things gives hope that an out-of-court settlement isn't far off, though.

Stop thinking March... start thinking May.

Bands that are releasing albums in April are making press releases at the moment.

So if it's coming in May (in time for Rock in Rio and the Da Vinci Code soundtrack) then we'll hear about it in February/March.

Do you really think he would say someting bad aboot axl in public?? No he says so much shit about him behind doors most of which gets put out but not many see it.  And he is to blame if it doesnt come out bc axl said see ya next summer not CDs out next summmer. We havent heard from him in like 3yrs so i dont see how you blame him.

I'm glad you know Slash so well.

I think people are annoyed because he said see ya next summer and they didnt.

Obviously people thought the 'Chinese Democracy World Tour' was to promote the album in the relatively near future. However Axl never said anything remotely close to this (as far as im aware). However the things they did get from Axl e.g 'see ya next summer' didn't happen either.

I think some fans hear one statement from Axl or Slash that wasnt true and hold it against them for eternity.

Slash made it pretty obvious that he was saying that from what he has heard it would appear that Chinese Democracy (he doesn't even name it, the DJ has to prompt him to confirm it is CD) is coming out in March.

[Colt 1911]

yea and axl said soon wasnt the word he said it would be a while so wtf is everyone bitching about the time and what axl said. Bc axl never said next year (2003 or 04 or 05 or 06) he never gave a fucking date. And why be glad he brought it up it was just so ppl would be like omg slash said somthing about cd good about axl just so ppl will listen to vr and ge some sttention. Look at the law suit and the shit he said like axl did even write the songs it was all them and he would make shit up abou8t what they were about. yea slash has some really good things to say about axl.

[CAFC Nick]

Slash is too professional to criticise Axl in public.

I wish the same could be said about Axl.

[Colt 1911]

hes said shit about axl in public. And axl didnt say anything bad about slash in public he said whats going on and how he and duff as fucked bi time but never made shit up or talked shit abut him liuke slas has.
