What's the latest with GNR? Are they working on a new album?

[Naltav]

I don't blame them one bit for not updating.

Every time in the past when ever they do update on what's going on, some fans would stirr up all kinds of bullshit! If someone from the GNR-camp said anything they'd get shot right down by personal attacks when things didn't go as they expected.

So if the policy in the GNR-camp is "NO info out untill EVERYTHING is 100% carved in stone!", I'm all for it!

I've kinda been out of the loop for a while...

Are they still planning a tour for CD or are they doing a new album?

Like you i?m a little bit lost on the news about GNR.
Did they released any video from chinese democracy album?

I never listen the new songs on the radio, only old ones,  it?s kind strange. someone who doesn?t use internt must think that guns no longer exist, cause er never see anu publicity to new songs

[bolton]

Yes.

sarcasm? 

soon is not a word

[jacdaniel]

They just take too long to do things!

[TomFriend]

Check the star charts and roll a few bones. Maybe you'll find the answer there.

It would be nice to get one more new Guns record before the world ends in 2012

True but it would be great 2 hear them do there new stuff on stage 2.

[jacdaniel]

i doubt they're working on a new album anyways.
i got the impression from DJ in his chat that they he hadnt really started working with the other guys.
hope im wrong though.

without any videos or radio play the buzz for cd commercially is over unfortunately....they really dropped the ball. only ones who will go see any shows are us loyals (as usual) which to me is dissappointing. i really wished that gnr would hit a new fanbase but the train has moved on. to get fresh again they need to drop another album and then tour for both albums....

I already said something like that but I'm with u on that

Have you been to a GN'R show on the last two tours?

If you have, maybe you noticed that some of the kids weren't even born when Appetite was released....




Besides, this whole "fresh" thing is hilarious. You can't tour behind an album because it wasn't released just before the tour?

Says who? I see many GN'R fans saying this and it just amuses me. GN'R fans against a tour. Nice one!

I know some of you really don't care for the band all that much because I've seen the shit some say. But this is a new one to me.

Well we can just hope for your sake that they don't tour in your part of the world until you get that next "fresh" album. Right?

i think they could at least do with a single/video before going on tour.
The band at least needs some more popularity before touring.  Unless they're gonna play lots of the old songs, then people will go regardless

They toured without an album in 2006 and 2007.

The next tour will be with an album.



Why are people "worrying" about these things?

They shouldn't tour? That's what they've done since 2007. Not toured. Did it make you happier?

You must've been fucking ecstatic!

Personally I don't care about timetables and the rock n' roll rule book that says you must tour when the album is released. Whenever GN'R tours, it'll be awesome!

Yeah but when i saw them they only played 3 songs from CD and the classics.
My point is that, if they play mostly CD, people may be disapointed as a lot of people still don't know the album is out or know the songs well enough so it could be a potential disaster.
If they gather some momentum before going a tour, i think it would work out better for them.

It's the same for any artist!

I've seen Depeche Mode and U2 this summer. Both opened their shows with a bunch of new songs and most of the reviews pointed out how the crowd didn't get into those songs!

You don't think people knew they had new albums out? These bands put out videos and do interviews. They do everything by the "How to promote your new album" rule book.

Still, you have people in the audience who are there for the hits.

It's normal.
