Since tuesdays are press release day in the US. I suspect this Tuesday could be very interesting around here.

how are tuesdays press release days? the media has press releases each and every day
Best Buy site has 'coming soon' albums listed thru 11/10...also nothing on 'exclusives' page...I would expect to see it on their site for pre-order either immediately before or concurrent with 'official' announcement, since that announcement will result in insane traffic on site - which they will obviously want to take advantage of.

A very good friend of mine called Best Buy while I was at work. They said December 3rd was what was in their system. Another store didn't have it in their system at all, but they took about 15-20 minutes to tell me they didn't have it.

More than a decade after its conception, Guns N' Roses' "Chinese Democracy" will finally see the light of day before year's end, sources close to the situation confirm to Billboard. As first reported here, the set will be a Best Buy exclusive and will be available Sunday, Nov. 23, rather than the usual Tuesday.

Beyond enticing pre-Thanksgiving shoppers, the move is tied to the structure of Best Buy's sales week, which runs from Sunday to Saturday. As such, "Chinese Democracy" would not be eligible to chart on The Billboard 200 until the week of Dec. 1, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

In the run-up to release date, album track "Shackler's Revenge" will debut in the video game "Rock Band 2," while a portion of "If the World" is playing over the end credits in the new Leonardo DiCaprio/Russell Crowe film "Body of Lies."

In addition, GNR's seminal 1987 debut, "Appetite for Destruction," will be reissued on vinyl on Oct. 28 via Interscope.

The band's last new studio albums were the simultaneously released "Use Your Illusion I" and "II" in September 1991. A covers set, "The Spaghetti Incident?," followed in 1993, and featured some of the last GNR recordings from original guitarist Slash and bassist Duff McKagan.

This spring, soft drink manufacturer Dr Pepper offered to send a free can of the beverage to "everyone in America" (excluding ex-GNR members Slash and Buckethead) if "Chinese Democracy" were to arrive anytime during the calendar year 2008.

"We're waiting to hear about 'Chinese Democracy' just like all the other GNR fans," Dr Pepper VP of marketing Tony Jacobs tells Billboard. "But if the rumors are true, we're putting the Dr Pepper on ice."

aren't gnr more the friday-guys in that aspect? maybe i'm wrong, but i got the feeling that most of the last press releases came on fridays. is my memory playing tricks on me? jarmo?

"Press Release Day" is the day that the person issuing the press release damn well pleases. It doesn't matter what day of the week it is.

Good point.  It looked like a press release and I have seen it on other non GNR sites....  Seemed legit.  Guess not.  What got me was the Appetite Reissue Record, thought they must know something...  hihi
