Hey all,
While listening to Sirius at work earlier I heard mention of the NYC shows. The fact that they sold out in about 12 seconds each (DJ's words, not my own), and, most interestingly.
"The shows in New York are where the official release info for Chinese Democracy will be announced" (quoted as best as I can remember)
Just thought it was another interesting tidbit and thought I'd share.

So, is there any tread left on the tires? Or at this point would it be like throwing a hot dog down a hallway?

I'm going to be the wet blanket and say there's a good chance they picked this rumor up off the forums... there was already a thread on this very board speculating that an announcement would be made at the warm-up shows.

Quite possible. I did send an email to the DJ on the air at the time "Christopher the Minister" to see if he had any additional info to share - but up to now, there's not been a response. If there is, I'll let you know. (Gotta give Sirius DJs credit for one thing - they did scoop the Hammerstein shows about 36 hours before they were officially announced) -darknemus |

I was actually thinking about this yesterday, and I thought that it would make sense that the release date would be announced at these shows. If I had to guess I would say that Axl will do a long rant about the process of recording the album, about the delays etc. and thank the fans (especially since a lot of the people at the concert will be message board users who are the most hardcore gnr fans) for sticking with him all this time. And then at the end of his rant he will announce the release date and show the cover art on a big screen. An official press release will probably be made at the same time that the concert is going on.

That's bull crap, I rented a podium to bring into Mustang Harry's and Axl Rose is going to hold a press conference there.  |

I will shit myself if after all the years of waiting that I am at the actual concert that Axl himself announces the long awaited release date. This really does seem to make great sense. What better place to announce it than the capital of the world, before embarking on a World Tour!!!

Don't worry about that. Somehow or another, we'll be liveblogging from the concert(s) - stay tuned for details on that, as I'm still sorting them all out. -darknemus |
