I'm thinking Kanye will be competition. His record will sell a lot, because he's popular, not necessarily because he's good. And it will get a lot of promotion like BLS said. In fact, i think one of his new songs is already on the radio (not sure though, i don't pay attention).
Metallica sure set a good example though. GNR need to promote the living hell out of this thing.

I've heard personally from people who have experienced government sponsored health care (not necessarily universal) and they said the quality takes a large drop. Quite a few of them opted to pay to get their own insurance, or where that wasn't available, tried to seek some other alternative.
IF this thing ever gets off the ground, it needs to be highly regulated so quality of the care being provided doesn't take a large drop. Extra regulations and keeping up quality would then cost even more money making it very unlikely.
There are mixed reactions everywhere on whether this works or not. Some love it, some hate it. It's a very controversial topic.

Not bashing the leaks, but i don't think CD will be able to capture the time like AFD did. And i honestly don't believe that is Axl's intention with this album either.
I think album releases will go as scheduled regardless of the economic climate, because by delaying anyone is risking the economy not recovering and in fact getting worse. They will take chances either way.

Saikin, you JUST bought Superunknown? You must be a mighty downloading mothafucka!
I guess the last album I bought was Mr. Bungle's California, but that was back in the summer. Great album, though.
I am a downloadin' mothafucka! 
I buy albums i like... eventually....

Didn't she cheat on him though and generally upset him a lot? I'm no nutswinger as I can see that while my favourite peformer he also has his faults, but it really seemed like he got the downside of that relationship to me.
But dude you can totally see her nipple in that pic! 
She's took care of herself. That's for sure.

It doesn't matter. It has to be released, and that's the best time to do it regardless of its sales. With a Best Buy promotional exclusive deals, its figures are going to be way up (isn't that how exclusive deals work? They guarantee #1 because they count as 'sold' as soon as their shipped to the store?) and a #1 spot is possible. It should beat Cornell, Weiland (easily), and even The Killers. Only Kanye could get in its way.
Agreed. Kanye is the only one that is really going to compete with CD's release.
And anyone who buys his album is wasting money. We're in an economic crisis people! Spend your money on CD!

Both candidates don't get the health care issue as far as i'm concerned, at least not to our knowledge.
I wish the candidates would just speak openly without trying to win votes. Just tell us what we're up against and what they would honestly do to begin fixing these massive problems. Explain why they think that would work, and what the benefits and losses are for everything. Obama HAS to know that universal health care is not a realistic goal, so tell us what you are going to do in the mean time. We may never get to the point where this country can afford it, so what are you actually going to do?
This is why i really hate politics like this.
#1629 Re: Guns N' Roses » The "Best Buy" leaks » 944 weeks ago
If this date is true, Chris Cornell and Scott Weiland's new albums come out that same day.
At least some good music will be released that day.
But in all seriousness, it seems like there won't be a lot of major competition on that same day for CD... at least not so far.

i am on the fence in the debate as well, for the most part. its the ignorance of most of those type of fans, ignorance in regards to what actually occurred that really annoys me, not whom they choose to affiliate with.
It's their opinion, not due to ignorance that they think GNR is made of Slash and Axl.
There's PLENTY of people that would feel the same way if Slash started GNR but with no Axl.
