Let's get the demos played on as many stations as we can - generate buzz!

[DunkinDave]

I've been thinking -

This might be the last shot we have at getting the new lineup out to the public in a favorable light.

If the demos are indeed demos, that means Chinese Democracy is not certain to come out this year, or anytime in the future for that matter.

Already one station in Connecticut has the demos listed as their most requested songs.

Come on everyone, call your local radio station and request the demos. And if they don't know what you're talking about, assist them in acquiring the songs.

Also, calling in to the stations and talking about the current members will help inform the mainstream as to the current state of the band.

This might be the last bit of joy the GNR community has for some time, let's not squander it.

Out of respect for Axl and the rest of the band.....no.

[nonlinear]

OK great idea..

also, who is a good writer?  I think someone should draft a form letter where we can fill in details like the radio station, etc.  and then we can all email it into stations?

i for one think this is intentional and think the music should be heard

RIIGHT.  after all these years of Axl making this album, he now wants some old demos to represent his masterpiece all of the radio and have it represent the New GNR.  Get a grip.

it wasnt intentional and the music isnt meant to be heard yet

HRM, well it's happened before.  (fiona apple)

Fiona Apple also was a one-hit wonder who was dropped from her label. Big difference.

LOL, One hit wonder nominated for a grammy, at the top of her game. Most artists would kill to write an album that solid. I can't believe you said that, mods... please ban him.

Edit: She wasn't dropped from her label either. As a matter of fact her album has officially been released in 2 forms - Official and iTunes original version. Unofficailly as demos. Three times total, not many artists get that kind of support from thier lable... except Gn'R and 13 million dollars to boot.

[Mr.Intensity]

I have forwarded I.R.S to a few local radio stations and the djs said they are going to play it. I also sent them "Better" and told them to make sure they mention these are only demo tracks and not finished products.
The two I talked to seemed eager for me to email them the material.

[dave-gnfnr2k]

email her carrie@waaf.com

she if she will do it again

GOOD GOD! ?Did I step into some shit with this! ? I've got a spell cast on me and am getting bitched out about Fiona Apple? ?Did Jarmo change this website for Apple fans?

[Mr Cowbell ?]

Only a dueshbag DJ looking for 15 minutes of fame would play an unfinished demo from GnR. they will wait for the real things if they are classy.

[DizzyReed63]

You guys need to ask for something in return...don't just send them the mp3s!
I'm holding out for an Ipod and Itunes gift card...no pay, no play.

But seriously, I agree that the DJs and listeners will not understand that these are just demos.
Look at how Howard Stern critiqued the f'n mix?!
