Guns N' Roses tribute band to boycott 'inferior' 'Chinese Democracy' songs
Guns'N' Roses Axl Rose
UK group don't believe new album will be up to standard

A Guns N Roses tribute band have said they expect to boycott tracks from the band's forthcoming album 'Chinese Democracy' because they won't compare well with the band's classics.

Although not ruling out covers altogether UK Guns N' Roses are not hopeful about the much-delayed album, which will eventually be released on November 24.

"We're undecided as to whether or not we play any of the new Guns material next year as we feel it probably won't be anywhere near the work by the original, and best line-up (in our humble opinion)," they explained in a mailout. "So we're thinking of naming the New Year tour the 'Stick To Your Guns Tour 09'."

Tribute bands are the scum of the earth. Lamest shit ever.

Do your own music instead of living off someone else.

Hahaha, pathetic fucks. They're in for a surprise, although they would never admit to it.
Close-minded, talentless parasites like that are a shame and disgrace to the name Guns N' Roses.

What a bunch of douchebags.   

They've already determined the songs are inferior and they haven't even given them a chance.

If this GNR cover band is like other ones I've heard, they too are probably unaware that the Illusions came out..Most of these hacks setlists only include Appetite and maybe they will throw "you could be mine" in, they never attempt any of the more complicated stuff...which is why they hate this record right off the bat...

When i saw them they played estranged, november rain and YCBM but that was about it off the illusion albums.They also played move to the city which i thought was pretty cool.

tribute bands (rip offs) do not need to blow smoke about why they are not playing 'new stuff'...it's because they can'tcrying  It is a lot easier to mimic Slash/Izzy/Duff/Steve (Gilby, Matt...) than it is to try and copy Buckethead/Bumblefoot/Fortus/Finke/Stinson with Dizzy + Pitman playing keyboard.  With respect to Brain or Frank, its not that hard to rip off someones drum work convincingly/passable.

Its like a fat guy boycotting marathons because they are not a true test of his ability.
