Thanks man!! I've been reading so many of the posts over the last several months and I love alot of ideas people are getting at. Yeah I noticed that on Sunday when I went to Best Buy near my house. I looked through the Guns N' Roses section and there were no copies of CD to be found. A few weeks ago, there were a ton of copies in one area for $1.99 and the other Guns area had UYI, Appetite, Lies, etc etc. Plus the music area in Best Buy is extremely unorganized.  The thing that pissed me off that I saw a poster ad for Chinese from 2008 in the back of store because the curtain was up with all the video games posters and shipments. Somebody crossed out with a marker of the word Ever in the Most Anticipated Album Ever into Never. Probably a Slash fanatic. Oh well it's their opinion and I respect that. It's not an album for everybody.  Best Buy tried their best; but it just wasn't good enough to help promote that album. But do to this recent tour, I think the public will give it a chance again. After a few years, it's starting to be look better in the public eye and not the butt of the joke it was over the past several years. It's a masterpiece and alot of songs on Chinese I think are better than some of the stuff on UYI. Favorites are Better, ITW, title track, Prostitute, Shacklers and Street of Dreams.

These positive comments and feedback can help improve ticket sales the next time another U.S. tour appears. I think the new updated website (whenever it gets finished) and updates on twitter and facebook are steps in the right direction. From all the pro shot videos, I've been extremely pleased with the set list. I wouldn't mind if they used it the next time around. It would be a treat next tour to see a new song or maybe have ITW and OMG thrown in. Prostitute would be interesting; but Axl was having a hard time with that song during the OSAKA 09 show. It's a tough song to get through with all the vocal overdubs & arrangements that are in the final studio version. Songs they should add though should be: Dead Horse and Yesterdays. In my personal opinion I believe Guns management should take advantage of VH1 Classic's potential for ad space and marketing the lineup since the TMS AXL interview took off quite well. The promos on TV were a nice change of scenery. Since MTV isn't going to give a rat's ass about them now. A Live album/DVD/Bluray of the 2010-2011 shows should be an idea they should consider to show that this band will continue on.  A re-release of Chinese with bonus material, remixes, more artwork, "poster?", and other goodies should be another idea to move forward with and to finally end the shadow of Chinese's development. It shouldn't be a store exclusive though.

The song puts me in a great mood! So worth the price!! I'm glad that these guys can help out each other when it comes to their individual projects. That's a great dynamic whenever they decide to get into the studio with Axl to write and record the new record.

Overall, it was a pretty kickass tour from all the youtube vids and links I've found from various websites. Loving the energy!  I'm hoping they come back to the U.S. in the coming months after a short break and a tour of Europe. Especially some dates in the DC area or Baltimore, MD. : D That would be amazing!! Now Ron can get his well-deserved rest. I think Axl should really consider finishing up any touring videos or music vids he has up his sleeve or in the vault while the U.S. is still in wonder of the last few shows. Some individual songs either new or from the sessions released during the year would be nice. I think DJ as a producer and song writer could give this band the push it needs to move the new music forward. Even though labels and constant lawsuits always seem to get in Axl's way.
