Looks like they've been on there for awhile.  I've held out on joining facebook so far, but I'm sure I'll eventually get sucked in.  I think even my mom got on there at one point, not sure if she's still there though.  I can't see her writing on people's walls.  She has trouble working an answering machine.

Myspace seems to be slowly dying huh?  I got on there a few years back and it was all the buzz, now it seems like nobody uses it anymore.  Everyone has switched over to facebook.  Personally I don't see the big difference.  They're virtually the same exact thing, unless I'm missing something.

Facebook is easier to read and navigate.

Yeah, I found it on Facebook a few weeks ago. The info on the Facebook page is exactly what you'll find on the official website. Nothing different.

Looks intersting but realisticly the reasons people (or bands) that are  famous make their myspaces and facebooks is to

 1. Get attention which honestly GNR should not need to do if people only cared about the music like back in the day ; )

 2. To keep their fans updated to everything they do and we all know when we get updates sadly



But still I might join facebook becouse of this I already have a myspace so why not...

"Label Recorded:

I don't think as long as the back catalog is selling, we will ever be off a Universal label.  Black Frog, I thought was a publishing thing.

Aaaaah.. the good old days! Back when we didn't have internet. Back when MTV and big labels decieded what you ought to was "cool". Back when if you wanted to take music with you outdoors, it was limited to a few cassettes for you Walkman...

Nowadays we have every band in the world accesible at the click of a button! And we litteraly carry with us thousands of songs in our back-pocket.

People still care alot about music! Difference is we care about much MORE music!

I became a "fan" on their facebook page this morning.

Did anyone else see that it has listed a potential show on 10-24 in NY?  Click on the music tab and it is there.

Well it's not been posted as a bulletin/update.....


I don't know where those dates are pulled from.


Edit:

Looks like the dates link to iLike....



Guns N' Roses  at "THE CRASH MANSION"
Saturday, Oct 24 @ 10:00 PM
Pending approval. Added by (name removed) | report


Doesn't look too official if you ask me....


In comparison the Taiwan show says:

Guns N' Roses  at 台北縣立板橋體育場
Friday, Dec 11 @ 7:30 PM
Pending approval. Added by (different name removed) | report


So looks like anybody can add dates and they'll show up.



If you click the Events tab instead, you'll see GN'R has not posted any events....

No, it seems like the dates aren't on Facebook. More like they're on iLike. Which is an outside site.

Nobody added them to the GN'R Facebook page, they were collected from an outside source. Just like Google News shows news articles from different web sites.


The updates you get from GN'R were posted by whoever is maintaining the GN'R Facebook page though.

I thought we had established the fact that the GN'R Facebook page is real.


The whole discussion within the last day has been solely about that NYC date.

So excuse me if I assumed "IT" meant that show.

I think the thirsty are just starving for a drink.  I figured out that the date was from an outside source just by reading this thread.  I think those that skim or just see a date get the blinders on.  I don't mean that in a bad way, it's just easy to see what you want to see in those type of situations.

If it helps any, I called The Crash Mansion about the date and I asked them if GN'R were scheduled to play there on 10-24.  They put me on hold and then told me "no".

how long were you on hold for and if you went to their site; they list shows for about a week or two period..........

it wouldn't surprise me if they play a few shows in NYC before heading off on a larger tour

I see. Sorry, didn't see that. I really couldn't imagine how someone got that you said it was real from that.

I guess we're coming down to the wire now in any case. I would hope that GN'R says something one way or the other on the other dates before Saturday.
