well, to be fair, we don't know if another album will be released. 
#5852 Re: Guns N' Roses » Iovine Talks Axl, U2, Dre, Eminem » 911 weeks ago
after I posted, I saw this on the rope from a man who knows!
"The Priest hears the first days are shockingly low." 
"flop" may be appropriate as this should sell heavy the first week at least.:ummm:

we are not quite talking the same language...I don't care what it costs and neither does the 16 year old kid at Best Buy...the costs are Axl's and Jimmy's problem which from the sounds of that other article, they have been resolved. If it sells 3 million in the US over the next 6 months and 5-10 million worldwide, eveybody will be happy and it won't be a "flop".

I would save the flop predictions until the new year at least. Iovine seems to think it is going to exceed expectations...he may know a little more than you about selling an album.
Texas I assume you missed this quote. "It looks like it's going to do really well. I mean, really, really well. Beyond anybody's expectations."

promotion is a fucking excuse, this album has been promoted for a decade. Drop it already and leave the promotion worries to Axl, Irving, Jimmy, and Gary Arnold w/ Best Buy.

This I Love is a [and I am going to use the word most people hate..LOL] Masterpiece!!!
I love it.I don't really like what they did in the middle part of Better with the guitar slide.
Other then that, I love pretty much every song. Shacklers Revenge still needs to grow on me.
I have no complaints.
Good to hear. I'm pretty much the same way. I don't see SR growing on me though. It's not bad enough that I wanna turn it off but I'd still never put it on intentionally. If I'm playing the album all the way through then fine, but otherwise I could do without it.
Shackler got worse for me....I just skip it everytime...I tried twice but couldn't make it after the second verse finishes.:headbang: CD to Better would have been a perfect beginning to the record. But, there is no Gnr album that I can get through without skipping a song.
#5857 Re: Guns N' Roses » What Really Led To Chinese Democracys Impending Release? » 911 weeks ago
"In 2005, ex-bandmates Slash and Duff filed a lawsuit alleging that he had switched publishers without their approval and pocketed the royalties, and there was a separate feud brewing where they raised similar charges about his dealings with Sanctuary’s merchandise unit, Bravado."
What was the outcome of those lawsuits?
Has the original members ever contested Axls right to the name Guns N'Roses?
no and all lawsuits were dropped by Slash and Duff to my knowledge.

Buzz, read what downliner posted...very interesting....ALOT went on with the negotiations and Irving probably cleaned the slate all the way around. 
#5859 Re: Guns N' Roses » Surprise appearance at the AMA's? » 912 weeks ago
The Family doesn't even know who is in the band.....much less appear out of nowhere again on TV. Highly, highly doubtful.
#5860 Re: Guns N' Roses » iTunes » 912 weeks ago
