my local fucking ABC didn't have the fucking album, when the advertisement spesifically said ALL 24hr ABC's will have it at midnight
so ticked off and so were the other people there, waiting for nothing!
Damn, that really sucks. I feel for ya - maybe a trip to listen at myspace.com/gunsnroses will ease the pain a bit.
lol well, it's on our rock radio as we speak, they're playing the whole album.. plus I've already heard it
but still, I wanted to do the midnight release thing and see the booklet!
You'll need at least an hour to read Axl's thank yous. Takes up the whole damn page in the tiniest print ever!

My iTunes copy has just downloaded- the booklet looks great in the hi-res pdf, and the sound quality of the mp3s is pretty damn good too.

I got it this morning and Ive not stopped listening to it!!!
I LOVE the entire album, but 'This I Love', 'Street Of Dreams', 'Catcher In The Rye' and 'Scraped' are amazing!!! The whole album is up there with Appetite and the Illusions lps in my opinion, but those songs I mentioned are even better than some songs on those older seminal albums.
Axl's voice is brilliant too, as is the guitaring. No Slash, but with riffs like this he's not really needed is he?

got mine (4 actually
) ... anyhow it was fun, at 7:55AM they still didn't get it and I went to get some coffe for me and two guys working there and when I was back it was there
... I was the first one to get it
... heheh ... it was really, really funny as they were giving away posters and as I was driniking coffee they gave first poster to a girl buying CD, but they didn't look at what the poster was (as they just arrived) and gave her a poster of some folk or national singer
... so when they figured one of the run after the girl
it is finally on my iPhone
v. ..
PS. Some numbers: they have 200 CD's in shop in Zagreb, expect to sell 3.000 in Croatia which is 'huge' for Croatian market. Vinyl and maybe some fanpack editions are coming in 2 weeks app. Posters are just the cover and text, nothing special!

It's the digital era actually, cd's are out of style......
I think a lot of older GN'R fans listened to the originals on vinyl, and simply want to carry on that tradition, plus vinyl has a better sound for an album like this

Bought the CD this morning. I gotta say that here in France, in Avignon where I live anyway, this release was a non event. When I got to 'la Fnac', a large record store and the only one downtown, CD wasn't even on the shelves--a guy handed me one from a box... If it wasn't for Myspace, I wouldn't have seen ads anywhere.

The "Chinese for Two" party at my place is almost set. On the menu we have a five-flavor veggie platter with tzatziki dip, six different cheeses from around Europe served with an assortment of crackers and the finest French fig jam, red grapes and an ice-cold bottle of Pommac.

Haha, cool!
I bought some sparkling wine to celebrate the release, but I already drank most of it on Thursday, as it was when I listened to the album for the first time.
