Why so quiet?

[Mr.Intensity]

The reason why we are getting no statement is because more tour dates are being scheduled/confirmed and I don't believe the gnr camp is going to give us a solid release date 2 months in advance before C.D, I think it is going to be like "BAM" and be announced one week before it hits the stores.

what makes you think that?

So your saying June for CD. ? I was thinking more a statement on the leaks...yes a release date would be nice but I guess that wouldn't be Axl fashion...always keeping us guessing. ?Dammit

I'm saying it could be released ANY time, although I doubt it until at least April....

Yah what the hell am I thinking June for some reason I was thinking we are in the end of March....Yes it's late and I need sleep. ? Just in light of all that is happening it would be sooooo great for something official from them, from Merck, Axl himself instead of just hitting the stores. ? I dunno....I guess I just want this damn thing soo bad..i feel we are soo close, just need that official seal of approval to make it all real

[Midnight Gunner]

Ah yes, the summer release date theories again...haven't we gone through this a few times? lol

 :hihi:That was fuckin' funny

[Journeyman]

It will happen within 48 hours.?

I'm feeling we'll have something by thursday...and no, I dont have a source...its just my birthday, and itwould be a hell of a gift to know the release date of CD

Things have been pretty quiet over the past few days.

Do you realise that this is probably the last bubble of silence before all hell breaks loose...?!

Once this baby bursts, it's gonna be a rollercoaster ride to the end.............

I think they are probably planning more dates. It would actually make sense considering the lack of announcment for the dates confirmed through the festivals themselves.

[Gaymo, the Hobbit]

i fucking hope man, i really fucking hope that's the quiet before the storm. i'm just so afraid nothings going to happen. that would be my worst nightmare

[madagas]

I wonder what impact the Tool cd will have on a Gnr release date. Huge hard rock/metal band which is tentatively set for early May. I say this because they will get alot of publicity with the guitar mags and rock mags/press. They will also have a huge first week of sales then drop off substantially due to a hardcore fanbase. I could see Gnr doing early April before Tool or waiting until mid May/late May when the initial Tool frenzy dies down. Late May (May 23rd) right before Rio seems perfect. As far as an announcement, I don't think anything is immediately imminent. You have to go with the last statement from Merck. An announcement will come in "due course" which could be anytime in March or even April.

[adry]

well, if it is the quiet, then it's lasted a pretty long time. it would suck major ass if nothing happened.

I dont think tool has all of that going for them...I think that even if CD and the tool album comes out in the same day...GNR will be in every magazine cover, radio and tv....and tool will be lost somewhere between the pages...

Not even close.  Tool's release will be huge.  Granted, it would be 2nd to GNR's release, but it would not get lost.  I agree that it would be poor judgement to release both of then too close together.
