New info on Wikipedia? (BBC1 rumour)

[busngabb]

The thing that doesn't fit with me on this rumour is that Radio 1 have supposidly already announced the announcement on air. That is something that people would have heard in large numbers (Radio one is THE national radio station in the UK, nothing else is near it).

Regular forum members on one of the sites would surely have heard it.

I also don't think Guns n' Roses are big enough now and relevant enough for such a massive radio station to worry about telling people about a single, but then not actually playing it. If they had the exclusive first play fine, but there is no way they would announce it 4 weeks before the single was first played.

Another one of those realistic rumours which could be true. I love rumours like this that have a finite date to them. Radio 1 for me tomorrow, just in case they pop out the single and I miss it. How horrific would that be.

When it comes to a new album and tour, there is alot of interest in Guns N Roses.

What pisses me off is that I'm going to be listening to BBC 1 all day tommorrow and I'll miss Stern.? I hope this pays off.

No FUCKING WAY! Danny, this is the single most outrageous thing that has ever been said in one of your posts. Look man. Life is waaaaaaay to goddamn short. There is no reason for you to go the morning without having some good fucking gut busting laughs for the chance...and you know we are talking GN'R right...that there will be GNR news on the BBC channel.

Fuck man, one time I forgot to take my S50 out of the home dock in the morning and I was so fucking sorry when I realized later what I missed (and its the only thing that really makes me laugh on the way to work).

But fuckin anyway, hopefully we will here something new soon, 'cause this is all starting to get really fucking lame again here.

[Danny]

You have an S50?  I'm jeleous.  My wife won't let me buy one.

BTW, I tried emailing Jo Whiley and just got a generic "I get too many emails to reply to everyone" auto-reply.

Just heard something about 'big news' on Guns 'N Roses on the rock report on 96fm (Perth, Australia)... 6pm (70 minutes...)

[LoseYourIllusion]

Jo Whiley just said she knows nothing about a new GNR single
Looks like it was BS

[anythinggoes]

a rumour had started up that she would be playing the new single but she has just confirmed as far as she knows that will not be happening.

i believe it was started at another forum but at least it can be killed before it gets here


actually pretty cool she even bothered to mention it thinking about it

Cool, keep us posted dude!

I don't listen to the radio in Australia (Sydney) anymore, it's all crap!

The wikipedia edit team is pretty dedicated, so its not too likely that something blatantly wrong could stay up for too long, as for the rumor, it doesn't seem too far-fetched, and its something to look forward too...

Though this is my first comment, I visited this site for the past 3 yrs or so, and its the authority. Thanks.

Well, the problem is that nobody can say whether or not this is blatantly wrong. I have my fingers crossed though. Think it would be a good idea to have a single out before the tour. Let people know GNR is back!

And of course, welcome to the board for you and FortusGNR!

If anything it will be on The Rock Show.

But don't hold your breath.

Will do... I'm going to work in under an hour... they better not drag it out.

Here's the website: www.96fm.com.au

[Poof!]

"BBC Radio 1 will announce more news surrounding Guns N' Roses and their future plans on 18th April" ?
 
"but as to clearing up rumours about a reunion, only time will tell."

How do you announce news regarding their future plans when you can't even clear up a rumour that would be vital to their future plans?

Be careful, don't step in the bullshit.

G N' R news coming up next...

[11]

Nothing new, just a wrap up of what's been going on the past few months... didn't really expect big news.

[godiva]

Thanks for listening and posting 11. I have to say I AM a bit disappointed. A new single would be really good IMo so I was rooting for that kind of news.

[11]

No worries... It would have been odd for such news to be broken in Perth of all places. 

Personally, I'm hoping for CITR to be the single... awesome stuff. 

[CAFC Nick]

I sent Zane Lowe an e-mail. I'll let you know if he replies.

EDIT: I know what 11 said that there was no news. But I may aswell get a direct quote saying that there is no GN'R single at the mo.
