use your head...
it's relevant because "finishing touches" include a work on production and that's probably what they did/are doing. Maybe I should have explained it?

Don't turn it into a bashing thread.. it was relevant to the better thread being the single and how it sounds.. not about the finishing touches or any info about what goes on in the final stages of production... I can sit there and play the song, equalize it and make it sound "cleaner" than a ROUGH DEMO... geez.. i bet you didn't even read the beginning post to this thread...
On another note.... Last thing to also take place is pick out the artwork and get stuff printed for the cases.. and booklets.. anyway whatever...

you know.. they are probably still mixing it.. and it's sscheduled for a november mastering (
www.sterlingsound.com
) you can verify this by going there..... it's being done by? i forget his first name but last name is marino... mastering takes anywhere from 3 days to a week or so... once this happens... it's it. the release...
Well, that says 11-17-
2005
...almost a year ago. ?I think 2006 is starting to look a lot like 2002...

The article said he pit finishing touched. Obviously that means he is done if he is about to go on a huge tour with probably no time to work on the album.
Expect a 2006 release.

There's definitely still time...I think I said on another thread that Gwen stefani just announced officially announced this week that she's releasing her new solo album on Dec. 5th. So GNR are still well within the window for a 2006 drop.

The "finishing touches."
Mastering is when they mix the final tracks and everything. It's when they shoot an MP3 through a big machine that equalizes everything and adds special effects and then they make it sound even better and digitalize Axl's voice at all the right parts and tweak the pitch and make it sound crisp.

C'mon, this excuse is as lame as, well, every other time Axl has put "finishing touches" on the album. Of course the concert promoter would try to make it sound like a good thing that GNR had to cancel the first two tour dates. He couldn't come out and say, "He's Axl Rose, what do you expect?"
If it is true, and they're still putting "finishing touches" on it, with the "Chinese Democracy tour" already being about 40 shows in (counting the European dates), then there's definately not going to be any album releases any time this year.

Did you come up with that all by yourself?
What finishing touches could be left? In 1999 he said:
"Loder: When do you think we will actually see this album? Is it possible to say early next year?
Rose: We're hoping. Yes, definitely, everything seems to be going well."
http://heretodaygonetohell.com/articles/showarticle.php?articleid=28
Now he's postponing shows to add "finishing touches" 7 years later? Bullshit.

Do you think you came up with bitching and moaning all by yourself? Trust me, I've seen it done much better than what you're spewing. If you think the album isnt coming out, and this whole thing is a crock of shit, why are you here??

This is the 2nd worthless response you've given. Quit now while you're 0 for 2.
I saw something hopeful from Rolling Stone magazine that said:
"In an interview with his official fan site, Axl Rose confirmed that Guns n' Roses' long-awaited Chinese Democracy album remains unfinished, but that he hopes to release it by the end of the year."
Then I scrolled down and saw it was dated August 14, 2002.
4 years later, "finish touches," that are important enough to disappoint thousands of fans over, still needed to be added? Didn't Tommy Stinson say in 2005 that this tour would begin in April of 06, AFTER the album is released? Didn't Dizzy say it would be out, then his wife posted something about ruining Christmas? Why would this keep happening if "finishing touches" were still years away from being added?
I just don't see how anyone could possibly believe the excuse for postponing shows. ?

Dizzy's wife used the Christmas thing asn an analogy...she said hearing it early would be like waiting till the day before Christmas and opening everything. It's better to wait until Christmas than wait all that time and ruin the surprise the night before.
However, you're right - the story often changes. Axl has been "hoping" to release CD "soon" since 1999. He changed that in 2002 and said "I wouldn't say 'soon' is the word," but other bandmembers in 2004 and 2005 kept saying "soon" and "hopefully soon" and so on.
