Chinese Democracy in November?

[TVC15]

I bumped into my old music instructor at Amoeba Records in Hollywood last night. He told me that the store attempted to get Guns N' Roses to play at the store on the night before the album is released. According to one of the employees, they were unable to perform because they would be leaving for Canada at that time.

I will love to see the album released before their L.A. shows (I will attend the shows). 8 of my fingers are crossed!

November is not unlikely

[CAFC Nick]

Erm...sounds pretty good.

Why didn't you ask for the date?

[AxlsMainMan]

If November is the month, we should be hearing something concrete in October

[Wooody]

november...canada...somebody do some research and give us a date :p

[Alina]

If November is the month, we should be hearing something concrete in October

if the albom will come out in November so its kinda soon , we definatly need to hear something in October 

[Spirit]

November 14th?

[GnFnR87]

of course its still a possibility, figure early october announcement for a late november release.

whats scary is that its been a month now since Axl said "this year" at the VMAs, and still we've heard nothing concerning a single or album manufacturing etc...

but theres still time.

Well, I just checked the dates on this site and it seems like they begin there Canadian shows on December 4. Hmmm...I swear he mentioned November  .

He also told me he saw Jane's Addiction play at the store a few years ago and that was nearly impossible to get into. I can imagine how difficult it would be to see G N' R there  .

It's NOT gonna be november

November 14th?

CHINESE DEMOCRACY STARTS EVENTUALLY!!!!!!!

[Mr.Intensity]

November 21st or November 28th.

Just my .02

[Robman?]

November 14th?

Didn't HMV have a release date of November 13??

[Spirit]

Live Era was announced October 16th - released November 23rd

Greatest Hits was announced Februray 19th - released March 23rd

Both of them a month before..

Funny, seeing I plan on going to the Nov 20th show in Halifax - CANADA!

A short notice is the best thing for Chinese Democracy promotion..
If they announced it 4 months ahead of time, naysayers would simply say,
"yeah sure, we've heard that before.." and no momentum will build up.

If they wait 6-8 weeks prior, and then start the media blitz, it will stick
in peoples minds much more (the release date).

A mid-late november release date sounds perfect for this unique album
in history...A lot of kids will be putting this on their Christmas list, and
historically November is a successful and popular release month.

I'd expect an announce in about 2 weeks, when mixing is close to being done.

I've thought about this the last few days. This is just speculation on my part, but my guess is that it'll come out either November 21st OR December 26th. I'm not going into why, it's just my gut feeling- which could (and probably is) very well be wrong.

The Canadian tour starts in November in Toronto on the 15th.

[downzy56]

Well, they play Toronto November 15th, which is a Wednesday. ?If they're on their way to Canada upon the date of its release, then that makes November 14th plausible. ?Coupled, as mentioned above, that November 13th in the UK has been thrown around a few times, and that seems to be the safe bet. ?Also, that gives it a week or two before American Thanksgiving (sorry, as I Canadian I'm only aware of Thanksgiving in the states being at the end of November) which is, as you all know, the busy time for retailers.

Personally, November 14th would be sweet for me, I'm planning on seeing GNR in Toronto, Ottawa and Quebec City. ?Something to listen to on the road trip would be great.

Cheers,

Andrew
