[flicknn]

grammys are on febuary 2 nd !

So...?

if he is finally going to do this right he needs to make a attempt to perform on that show....millions watch it , in america

[mega_music]

Wow, when I saw the headline, I took my time before I even clicked on it lol! I knew what was inside would be very special and in fact it was! I think the letter was very well written and Axl was giving us nothing but the facts. Looks like we have some time boys and girls but at least we have an official date from the man! Lets all enjoy the next few months and cherish  it. Lets try not to get caught up in all the fucking bullshit, and trolls lets just ignore them and live our life. We all have waited a very very long time for the day Chinese is released lets take it in and be positive the whole time. This is amazing news and we all bitch about the communication but fuck look at what we just got, a official letter from Axl himself.

Looks like Im requesting March 6th off from work!

Guns N' Roses has never won a Grammy and aren't nominated for one.

Therefore, they can't perform on the show - now shut up about it.

dude it doesnt matter if they are nominated , trust me , you have to think outside the "merc" box the grammys reach millions of homes thus giving gnr a national airing in one single moment.....one single moment....no suprise performance either , something like popping up on commercials , think of all the ipoderssss and itunersss who here the first single played live in a " post merc thinking era"

[Gordi]

Brilliant! Cheers Axl this is what I've been waiting for, I must admit I wasn't expecting this.  Thanks.

You have to be invited to play the Grammy awards.

Clearly you don't know what you're talking about.

[AxlGunner]

[Red Sox Fan]

[newgnr]

OMG!! this is awesome.? whooooooooooooooooo.? i can't believe it's official. bring on march 6th.


CHINESE DEMOCRACY STARTS NOW!!




 

[Gunner17]

I don't know what to say....In a way I am happy, but I am also saddened and worried that March 6th will come and pass. I am going to take a break for a while guys. I'll be back in a few months around the release date. Until then enjoy the gossip and rumors I am sure we will hear about.

Take care,
Gunner17

neither do you , cause when it comes to pulling advertising dollars for a tv program ,they will do whatever it takes .It only takes one Tv executive's son to mention " hey dad axl just fired his manager and announced a tentative release date for CD

think about it man , you are stuck inside a Merc box


Imagine gnr , and Vr playing the same gig.


FUrthermore, you need to back up your claim that you HAVE to be nominated for a trophy to perform at a award show.You will find no proof , friend

[jarmo]

Just some hints to people:


- If you don't like the idea of having a tentative release date - take a break. Come back when there's a final one. Maybe check in again in March to see what's going on.

- If you feel like you have to say something negative about someone in this thread - take a break. Log out. Calm down. Write it on a piece of paper if it helps. But don't bother us with that shit.

- If you're upset about having your show cancelled - I'm sorry, but this isn't the place to went your frustration.


We really don't need your negativity right now.

Lots of things are happening at once.

I wonder if this will be on the official website tomorrow?

Still hoping for updates from the show tonight too and maybe some more thoughts from Axl on this.

[Gunner17]

Good suggestion Jarmo...I plan to be back in a while. Thanks for the boards.

[RoCoKiN]

I like that even though March 6th is tentative that he said that they would let everyone know in advance if this changes...I like that we will have that info communicated and not a whole lot of speculation.

Looks like were going to see a GNR v. VR faceoff.

Aren't they releasing at the same timeframe? Awesome!
