Here Today...
« on: June 28, 2009, 08:41:09 AM »
Normally I'd be frusterated with such a topic.. But at this time it seems nothing is hapening w/ CD..I wonder if DJ Asba was brought in to polish up some material, as he did w/ SIXX AM and Motley Crue?
Was CD released as a personal artistic goal for Axl with a more comercially accepted album for the general fan base on the horizon..I personally LOVE CD. Some songs took awhile to truely appreciate, If The World for example.
I'm just wondering what people feel at this time..Has your opinion recently changed on the status of the promotion behind CD? Will a tour at such a late stage drastically improve sales. To me thos album needs the push of a large scale tour. As much as I would love new material I want the masses to hear and appreciate this MASTERPIECE!!!!

Personally, I have this cd and I'm ready for the next.  I'd hate to be stalled out on new music while the only purpose of touring is just to promote this album. 

But then again it's fun to have them on tour and if there is never another cd, not that I'm saying there won't be, I can still be excited about them being out on the road.

Sales and top of the pile stuff doesn't really mean anything to me.  As long as the band is still alive.

agreed and at the same time

I'll be happy for the band and for the masses when cd  reaches the masses in earnest.

being 7 months away from the album release, I really prefer a tour. I'm still obsessed with CD and I think I need more time to explore and enjoy it. I'm still tied to these 14 songs, and I would relly love to hear them performed live before a new album is released.

I want to see them tour and play these new songs.  It would definitely build up some more interest in CD.

A tour definitely. It's just that I am hoping for GN'R live. I miss it.

Tour, because I want the material that they have already released to be a bit more successful.

I obviously want to hear more music, but at the same time I want other people to appreciate it more.

I'd be happy to take studio albums with only occasional one-off live appearances. It just seems like the studio is where Axl's muse is at. Unfortunately, with album sales down the toilet (generally speaking - not just for GNR) touring is pretty much a necessity.

I have to write a complete sentence here.

I agree with the above posters.  I could not have said it any better, really.

They just released an album, so a tour would make more sense.

I think first Axl has to ask himself if he wants to continue to be an entertainer in the music business.
Second he needs to find one lead-guitarist who is going to work with him exclusively on writing new songs.
Than perhaps he can release a new cd and tour it. The cd and tour should be bare-bones hard rock & roll. Get a great drummer; bassist; 2nd guitarists and perhaps a keyboardist if they are going to do any songs requiring that instrument.
As far as the old band reunion that's not going to happen.
It all comes down to what Axl wants.
I kind of think Axl no longer wants to deal with the bullshit of the music business; promoters and whatever else that goes along with it. I can respect his wishes. He's a smart man. I'm convinced he wants to live in peace for the rest of his years to come and not end up being a puppet and dying from a drug overdose.  beer
