I've just cracked a nice icy cold Dr. Pepper (I'm working...so anything more illicit is out until my work day is done).

What are you all doing?

Do you mean in general (I've just cracked a nice icy cold Dr. Pepper) or when the bloody thing actually hits shelves?

Right now I'm feeling ah... and when I pick up the album I'll have a few beer (that's plural, locally) and listen to it all by my lonesome.

Were we friends in a past life?

I know..the topic name sucks donkey balls.

I mean "How are you celebrating the Press Release that came out today announcing an official release date showing that the arrival of Chinese Democracy is official, and imminent".

But what the fuck...we can talk about what you're gonna do the day the album is released, too.  Works for me.

I'm gonna head to BB EARLY (I'm assuming no midnight opening) and see if we can't get a bunch of GnR fans together in one place at the same time for a few hours prior to release.

Then, I'm gonna come home, send the kiddies over to grandma's house (for those thinking that makes me a bad parent....the kids go to Grandma's for the day just about EVERY Sunday..she lives approx 75 yards from our house), and blast the music at dangerously loud levels with some friends, drink some beers, eat some pizza, and have a little party (which is NOT a typical Sunday).

Many peeps coming over. Cracking open a bottle of Canadian Club whiskey that's been sealed since 1951 for this!

I'll take that as a no. But what the fuck, you were friendly enough in your edit. It's all good. GNR fans, ultimately. Right?

I don't know, we may have been (friends in a past life).  I have issues with remembering past life regressions, so...  Smiley  Eh, who am I kidding...I sometimes have trouble remember last month.

I was actually being sefl depracating in my first response....I knew when I posted it that the title sucked but I couldn't think of a way to phrase it better and still keep it short enough for the board software.  That's why I went all long winded and shit.  No worries.

I am gonna buy at least two maybe three copies ( one for my car, the house and maybe one for the wife's car in case we go somewhere and I don't wanna listen to crap) and then I am gonna crank the piss out of it while cruising down some windy roads in my BMW!  Life will be good!

I was thinking about hosting a party at my place and buying each of my guests a copy of Chinese Democracy. I'll be inviting more or less 20 people, so that makes 23 copies - at least - that I'm gonna have to buy.

I may even make each person sing a GNR line if they want to come in. It'd be like some kinda password to get it, don't want to sing? there's the road.

Oh...and I may even get drunk as well for the first time in 7 years. So, yeah, it'll definitely be an special night.

No, no worries.

For the record though, I wasn't fooling around. To me there was ambiguity in both the title and your Dr. Pepper remark. Sorted though.

And Iggy, if you throw in a plane ticket with the album, I'm there. Wink

I think the top out was just over 600 (jarmo would know) during the Hammerstein show live updates.

A quick look shows 400's been shattered before. Mostly in '06 it looks like. I saw 7** there somewhere.

The press release dropped while I was out shopping for groceries. I forgot to buy the bottle of Dr Pepper I had planned to mark the single release, and now the stores are closed, so no soda for me today.

As for release day, a wine and cheese party with the girlfriend is still the plan.
