I guess this was done to clear everything up.

Looks like i was right. Over 30 pages are gone.

damage control as it happens

damage control

Of what? Jarmo still has a BB thread open and the release info posted as well.

Hi Fernando! You promised to swap your stage view for my pit view in 09! I am holdin ya to it.

Now back to our regularly scheduled debate.

[tat2d1]

So, the album will come out with no press release? Not even from the label?

It's liposuction - cut off the fat so we can have a lean, open, nice discussion.

Fernando what are you looking most foward to when the album drops?

I was referring to the whole Fernando vs Mysteron with Jarmo in the middle thingy

[Bruno Poeys]

Ok Fernando, now please post that picture again saying that GnR fans are never happy, even when we've got big news.

Cool, glad to see the mud cleaned from the bottom of the shoe.  Also glad how things are now clarified.

Back on topic, cool to see that Future Shop now is listing the album on it's website.  As most in Canada will know, Future Shop is an electronic store that is much like and owned by Best Buy.  Hope fans in other countries start to see ads for it soon as well.

Cheers,

Andrew

Sounds good. Hopefully now we can continue talking about this calmly without bickering and whining about anything.

[RancidPunx]

I aint Fernando, but I am looking forward to being one of at least four people outside of a Buffalo,NY Best Buy  on 11/23, waiting for them to open the doors, running in and yelling CHINESE DEMOCRACY STARTS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

[tim_m]

I think there will be a lot more than 4. 

[Sober_times]

You may believe what you want - maybe I was a little harsh on what Mysterion posted and I am sorry, but all of that aside, his last statement is not true. 

Thanks for clearing it up. We were all waiting for something that wasn't going to happen. At least not yet. So thanks.

Yeah that was a great picture.

Hopefully its released the same day everywhere or at least a day or two before or after so every GN'R fan can listen to the album around the same time. Its a gonna be an amazing experience.

Well, I meant the four friends going with me.Then we are going to blast the shit out of the  album in the parking lot for a few hours and see how many people buy it.I may have waited 15 years for an album but I am not waiting 15 minutes to drive home, that shit is goin on loud as fuck in the parking lot at 9 am

That sounds like a good plan man maybe you can get people going into BB to buy it who weren't going to or don't know about it.

[sofine11]

Ok (I know this will probably go unanswered) Since there is no upcoming press release to be expected...What the hell is the official North American release date 11/23 or 11/25??? I ask because It would be a much bigger deal if it were released unconventionally on a Sunday (Plus many fans wont have to wait to get out of work to get it.)

Oh,they will know.Between the four of us we are getting around 30 copies including Vinyl.The car is gonna have some kind of large GNR logo.I guess they could ask us to leave for some kind of noise violation.I can see it now a cop pulls up at 9 05 am."What are you kids doin out here, in the dead of winter?"
 Officer , don't you know it is Chinese Democracy day!!!The biggest album release of all time!!
" Yeah, great kid, it is 9 am, turn that shit down!!" Then we just take the album to the streets!

Who said so? What was said was simply that Axl is not currently working on a press release.

And why should we expect one from him specifically? Bands normally have management or PR take care of that kind of stuff. Rarely if ever the lead singer of a band comes out and announces album release dates. He could do it if he wants to of course, but no expectations should be held upon him for that.
