I'll say it again... it may make more sense to most people to play the US or Europe when the album is released, but don't be surprised if they decide to play Hong Kong on release day.  Sort of like launching Chinese Democracy in China.

Could be. But that would be ballsy. Pissing off Chinese authorities is not something to be done for the sake of promotion. And if the album title at the end of the day really isn't a political commentary on China- but rather a metaphor for goings on in the band and Axl's life over the last 12 years (etc. as many of us suspect)- Axl would catch shit from the media for a cheap "promotion" gimmick like that. People die for shit like that.

They did it in 2002, and everyone's still alive.

True. But they didn't release an album then. The world media will be all over CD whenever it's released. Do it while in Hong Kong with every media source in the world making reference to the fact Guns has got an album out "Chinese Democracy" and oh by the way... they' re playing in Hong Kong tonight... could be a recipe for trouble.

It is true that Hong Kong is different. Particularly economically. I have been told that the authorities remain highly suspicious of the other freedoms that the Hong Kong population remember from the British days though.

All I'm saying is that all it would take is one person to be negatively impacted by something like that combined with the album primarily being about Axl's 15 year-old Stephanie Seymour heart-ache and not Chinese politics... and Axl would get crucified.

Why do you think the band will play better this year though ? I imagine they'll be playing the same, and that aint a bad thing.? ?ok

That's based on the fact that they kept getting tighter and tighter during the European tour. Then the North American shows were even better....

Also, the fans in some of the places they're gonna be playing in 2007 are really into GN'R and music in general.


Combine those two and you'll get amazing shows.

/jarmo

I'm an avid fan of the original lineup, but man, the new band are fucking powerful live too!

I watched the Rock Am Ring performance again last night and the sounds and visuals on stage are just spectacular. I closed my eyes for a bit during some songs (Nightrain, You Could Be Mine) and I swear these guys sound tighter and heavier than the original guys that wrote the songs! Shocked
And Better, IRS and the Blues easily stand up against the back catalogue, especially at this show.

I really hope it's true that they're coming to Australia this year. ok

Great... And very interesting... If gonna play the first leg in those countries, where will the second leg take place? And when will they release CD? Between the legs?

Nevertheless, very intersting and good to hear they are on the road again...  beer

I think this leg will contain around 20 shows...

Of course it's done. It was released before the holidays. Haven't you bought a copy yet.


Yes. I'm kidding.

They should definitely announce a release date before another tour.  Or at least say there is no release date.  It would be horrible to release an album and not be prepared to tour the us or in the us to do promotion.  This album will sink or swim based on US sales and if they want to sell albums they need to be working nonstop on the pr.  Either they arent releasing the album for several months or they dont think they can sell in the us.

Forget the tour dates right now. How about the album to back them up?

It's cool that the people that haven't had the opportunity to see the new band will finally get that chance. You guys/gals are gonna get your faces rocked off!!

With that being said though, I really hope the cd is coming soon. I hope this isn't just another round of the same stuff we've been through before. After this leg they'll have played pretty much everywhere, so if the cd isn't out before or during this leg of the tour, it'll have to come out after. Either that, or it's back to another long silent period.
