The oath / I will not listen to leaks

[the dirt]

It's possible some of them will be on the 2nd album.

Or none of 'em.

[Evolution]

It's quite the mystery.

[Axlfreek]

after what the gnr fan community has been going through in the past 10-15 years i think we all owe it to ourselves to listen a couple minutes of demos from the new album.



taking an oath ? 

[Schwarzgold]

taking an oath is a little to far man, this isnt a cult.

Don't take it too serious, people. ? [...]  this is a board, not a church (althouth it often is same, if you're a gunner ?).

I am doing the same. the wait has been too long to just go and spoil it now.

[Eva GnRAxlRosette]

just like i'm not reading any 'reviews' of CD until a good long while after

Thats great if thats what YOU want to do, but trying to suggest the idea to others is kinda dumb.  I mean, if you don't want to "spoil" it for yourself, simply don't listen to any of the songs, but don't tell other people they shouldn't either just b/c you think its going to ruin it for them.  Same goes for movie spoilers and stuff like that...to each their own dude.

Let those of us who are listening enjoy ourselves.  And have fun waiting.... 

Be funny if some people were camping out in tents in front of their record stores the way some people do for movies.  I can just pictures some people in line for 8 years now......"oh, its coming man, I'm gonna be the first to get it!" hahaha.

[Karma_Police]

I'll listen to one leaked song.  I won't ruin the entire album though. That's pretty much what I do with all anticipated relases. If you listen to leaked albums it ruins it I think but I have no problme sampleing one song.

[D]

I choose to experience things the way they are intended.

I liked the Christmas analogy I think "The Dirt" said.


Its like being a kid and sneaking and peeking at your Christmas presents on the 20th.

When Christmas Morning comes, sure u get to still play with the stuff BUT the surprise and opening and experiening it for the first time and the surprise is as important as what the actual gift is.


I cant wait to pop CD into my cd player for the firs time and be mesmerized and shocked with what I hear and having no idea as to what is about to come out of my speakers.

If u get a sample< i dont care if its only 40 seconds, it ruins the magic.

[Elrothiel]

well....ive downaloaded them....and have already masturbated to them.....sorry...im a hell cat

I can go one better than that. I've got ass-fucked to them already!

Buuuuut... it was in a spur of the moment kinda thing.
I'm gunna take the oath so I can redeem myself and not feel so guilty about being so naughty...

I do hereby publicly take an oath:

Since my faith in the appeareance of "Chinese Democracy" has been restored with the latest leaks, I swear not to collect anymore parts of this CD before its release, if not intended so by Guns N' Roses, with a downloadable single for example.

I do so for a) have the perfect experience of the whole album and b) because I know that maybe the Guns are not happy with us getting the music part by part and not as a whole musical effort.

And I do this stuff in public so that in weak moments, I can look in this thread get the power to do so. 


I feel better now!

[McDuff]

The only oath I'll make is the oath that any gnr fan will get to hear these new songs no matter what I have to do to get the music to them.

yeah,I'll also take your oath

[Lucky]

bah, stop being a sheep to the GNR vile environment...

Axl himself showed some songs live and direct so fuck it... now its too late for having regrets and also, in my case, I will still buy the CD and go nuts even if I heard it all 10000000 times...

But there is no chance of us listening to the whole CD before time so, blah, dont even worry about "betraying" your idol, haha... JUST BUY THE ALBUM, thats what matters?

wow!!Xozi...
she at HTGTH, that's a omen that CD is coming out.
jk

where have you been?

[makane]

Whys everyone blabbering "Im not gonna listen to them! EVER!" Then don't, it's not like you need to make it a Federal case.

Since my faith in the appeareance of "Chinese Democracy" has been restored with the latest leaks, I swear to collect all parts of this CD before its release, if not intended so by Guns N' Roses, with a downloadable single for example.

[CAFC Nick]

Stick your oath up your arse. 

[Thorazine Shuffle]

This situation reminds me of when Star Wars episode III came out.  I looked at all the pictures and read the script before the movie came out and it ruined it for me.  I'm not gonna let that happen to CD.  I've been waiting too damn long to spoil it by listening to the leaks.  Nah, I'm gonna wait.

[shotgun_blue]

I am proud to say I havent heard 'better' or 'I.R.S' and its killing me! Im so close to breaking but I want to hold out until The CD is in my hands. I'm gonna have three or four beers completely on my own and then Im gonna press play and take it all in! I have already broken once tho and downloaded 'the blues' which Ive listened too a million times! Please just realise the CD before I scream!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

[jameslofton29]

Why wait? What if you died tomorrow? What would you have accomplished by waiting? As far as I know, there isn't cd players and yousendit links in heaven. Just enjoy the songs since they have been leaked. No use waiting for a future that isn't guaranteed to come.

[Schwarzgold]

As for I know so far, there isn't a Heaven either, so there will be no time to regret not to have listended to the songs.
