They should run a nationwide radio contest that has the winner(s) getting the chance to get a pre-screening of Chinese Democracy prior to its release date.  Maybe meeting the band.  I know a few people here who would be tripping over each other!

I bought the new "Beck" album today. I like how it comes with a DVD of music videos for every song, and stickers for you to design the album cover. That would be cool if Axl did something like that.

i'd like to se the CD come in a material covered cover (just like a certain NIN album) possibly in red. Just plain red with Gn'R stamped on the front in yellow. That would stand the test of time.

Pink Floyd once released and album 'The Pulse' that had a built in flashing light. Now that was cool, too bad the album wasn't so cool. Maybe Gn'R should go one better and add 2 lights and a small solar pannel to power the lights (as Pink Floyds lights died after awhile, due to battery failure).

They should absoltley do some sort of limited edition CD or have a bonus track on the album or something. That would be awesome. I alot of bands either do like limited edition coverart or for a limited time, the album comes with an extra song

- I want a big in-store promotion at the music stores. A special section just for GN'R. Big displays with posters and all.
- I would like to see Axl do an intimate one on one sit down interview with someone like Kurt Loder on MTV.
- Good Rolling Stone article/interview.
- Do a cool commercial for the countdown of the release for CD. Something like 14 days til CD. Than, 8 days til CD. Something along that nature. But have some mystery to it. Something that catches peoples interest and curiosity. Even if their not GN'R fans.
- MTV or VH1 special behind the scenes of the making of CD and the tour.

Here's a very easy idea that they should do soon. It's the first step in any promotion for an album. RELEASE A GODDAMN SINGLE.  It could probably do ticket sales some good too.

I think a countdown on a standalone dedicated website would be cool, that way the official site can still have all the news and stuff.

I'd love to see full page ads in places like Billboard and RS.

That's gotta be bogus. I mean, there's no Silkworms  hihi

Actually, I'd be dissapointed if that's the REAL track list...where's "checkmate"? The 16 seconds that I've heard of that song ROCK

This may sound novel, but how about they release a single, or at least make a video.

13 tracks is perfect. It's neither too short, nor too long. You can focus on every song.

Definitely. I remember back in the earlier days of the new band, Axl said something like we'd get 18 tracks on the album, plus a bunch of B-Sides.

I'm really glad GNR paired it down to 13 - Much more focused that way, like AFD.
