Chinese Democracy in November?

[veritas55]

I just got a box from ups that said "fragile", it must be C.D.

Haha...come on...I not THAT naive...haha...what struck me the most from our 60 second chat, aside from the date, was that he told me he hasn't received a promo box that big since the Star Wars trilogy came out on DVD a few years ago.

why not Jay-Z -- that's got huge promotion behind it? (and we know it was originally a Nov. 21 release)

I doubt it, I think they could start the jay z promoting now if they want, there is no cloud of secrecy behind it, so if they had the jay z stuff, im sure theyd be able to display  it.

lol, I know, but you know how we are here, everyone is a skeptic these days, at least you gave a source and stuff, I just have to jump at the chance to make a funny sarcastic remark.

Haha...of course I understand. I'm as skeptic as you guys are but the Star Wars and date comment (and of course name of the sender of the box) brought a smile to my face. We'll find out in a few weeks!

Well what was the name of the sender on the box?

The Star Wars stuff makes it less likely it's CD. CD will almost certainly one CD (excuse the pun). No reason to believe its any different.

it's a promo box -- which means it's filled with posters, window clings, standees, etc.  It's not the CD's themselves.  The number of discs Chinese Democracy may or may not be is hugely irrelevant to the amount of promotional materials the label may send out.

It's a big box, which means there's lots of material -- which means a big promotional push.  Which likely means little pre-existing awareness is out there for this release.  A shock and awe marketing campaign, if you will.  Hence the "CD" conclusion.

did he not open it??? and at least see whats in there

[Refused]

If promotional material had been sent out to any record stores, surely someone would've leaked some pics/info about it by now.

[horsey]

the question is....


in this  time frame we have left.what is that ?

Frank's music in Moncton apparently received some promos posters and stuff but they were strictly told by the record company to keep it in the back. ?They were supposed to put it out this week but it has been delayed. ?I haven't seen the posters yet. ?They won't show it to me. ?

Apparently.   Keep that in mind.

And no offence to you specifically, GNFNRAXL   Just that we're going off an isolated word of a stranger.   It would be bizarre that this particular store (Moncton no less!) got promo material but no one else did, or if they did they're all keeping quiet.

28 november says a guy from hmv in chicago ,this is real folks

[xj220]

Well, our next big milestone is Nov 19.  That's the date that Better is supposed to be played on the radios as a single.

[Neemo]

Well, our next big milestone is Nov 19.? That's the date that Better is supposed to be played on the radios as a single.

and where did that come from?

[surforia]

i think this is still hearsay, right?  we're making this guess based on the HD press release stating that the Paradise City add would cease running on the 19th.  The inference is that it will be replaced with a better one.

but that is tv commercial though right? xj220 said radio single

[surforia]

yeah, but i think the inference is that HD will be allowed to play the ad because it will be officially released.  I might be wrong here, but that's what i thought "the latest" info was...
