[Neemo]

i dunno. it's just that, i understand what they mean.

[GNROSAS]

i guess we can just keep it here ... but hey, who cares about gnr but us

Soon the whole world would care....

[Dont Try Me]

so we gotta pretend it never happened? That's hard (awesome songs!!)

[Nytunz]

to say the fans shall not download the songs, or send it to someone, is just like the telling a kid dont eat your candy, when you already gave it to him 

[Mateoson]

While I agree, this kind of spoils some things, for me it only made me more excited and proved Axl has his shit together.

I'm afraid it's too late. A bunch of fools emailed the irs track to radio stations last night.

[makane]

Didn't some people already send these to some radio stations? (Which I think wasn't fair)

[2NaFish]

Songs? What songs??

DON'T MENTION THE WAR!!!

[Elle]

 

will be interesting to see if any sort of statement comes out

[erose]

DON'T MENTION THE WAR!!!

 

i did it once, but i think i got away with it!

[Your Illusion]

Send them to all radiostations in the world!!
The sooner cd comes out

[dub05]

This could delay what was due shortly???

[Christos AG]

You need to be extremely stupid when the band/management asks you to stop giving links and mentioning them and you keep on doing it...

[jameslofton29]

Mysteron, with all due respect, it isn't gonna work this time. The fanbase is united together for the first time in years. No negativity going on, and everyone sharing it with everyone. Shit, I just sent it to someone on here that I swore I would never talk to again. We're all together behing a common cause. Why does "management" seem to want the fanbase always fractured?

[erose]

where's the quote from management? What did they say exactly?

[blackpainter]

OK, I'll delete mine though it's very hard and maybe very late....

[Jim]

If management really cared enough to try and contain in any kind of way these demos (removing discussion of them is never going to happen though, y'know) then Axl should just release a statement. A vague release date. Something to hold onto.

Not just a slap on the wrist by management that actually holds no sway with the vast majority of people that post here.

Just saying 'oh...the leak, yeah...don't listen to them. In fact, don't even talk about them. Delete everything!" is bollocks.

A bit of communication with the fans wouldn't do any fucking harm.

People seem to have missed the fact that, while Axl has been spotted all over the place recently, he still hasn't said anything with any substance to the fans since...Buckethead left? I don't know.

Anyway, my point is that a simple 'request' phrased like that achieves nothing, and I'm sure management know it.

Also, telling people to not whinge is pretty condescending to a dedicated forum that have been, in majority, very loyal.

It's not showing much respect.

I'm not saying fight it. The files aren't even uploaded, or linked to, here anyway. I'm just saying that management (whoever that is at the moment...) need to communicate a bit better if they expect something back.

Still...Respect their wishes.

Pretendnig that a song this damn good (IRS) was never in my ears...would be like a heroin junkie pretending he didnt know what a needle is.

I've been a GNR fan since Appetite was released, and I've waited patiently since 1993 for the new Guns album.  I will not delete this song, and by the time anybody where to knock on my door to make me do so...I'd have 700 copies of it on cd...so needless to say, dont waste your time asking me to delete it.

I'll do as asked, and not spread it, but I'll be damned if I'm getting rid of it.

[Genesis]

A couple of hours too late, don't u think? It's all over the Internet by now and I've seen reports on atleast two 'news' sites...

[Gaymo, the Hobbit]

they want us to delete them even from your hd?  haha,yea right. i would rather kill someone than delete those
