Hopefully a new marketing plan is in the works.

No, karin. it was still up yesterday. now lets all assume everything will be ok and they will still release a cd this year and promote the hell out of the album.. in..a few...weeks..

Universal must have said that it is the wrong type of advertisement... That commercial didn't have any sex appeal... or anything but sheep...

Better no longer "Coming soon" meaning Better is finally getting here maybe? .......it seems there is a shortage of optimism on CD.

Perhaps we will see it on a beer commercial...

I think it means that "Better" is no longer the first single.

I thought that was taken down a while ago? Well, if not then I would say Harley just got tired of waiting. No reason to panic and assume the worst though.

Yeah since when does an advertisement have a bearing over the release of Chinese Democracy? Let the man do his thing!

misterbrownstone · « **Reply #13 on:** January 09, 2007, 10:11:10 PM »

it's probably cause the commercial is ending soon (it's been there for like 3 to 4 months) and it's probably just run it's course and there's no need for them to put out Better.

Dill88 · « **Reply #14 on:** January 09, 2007, 10:36:00 PM »

^^^ My thoughts exactly

Bugaboo · « **Reply #15 on:** January 09, 2007, 11:04:44 PM »

retarded on Axl's part since Harley is a cool company and would appeal to many rock bikers.

gunsnrosesaxlrockz · « **Reply #16 on:** January 10, 2007, 12:21:20 AM »

I just want 2 know why some of you guys are shitting a brick? I've posted numerous times already, the letter said Axl will let us know what is going on as soon as its all finalized or they can't release it by the 6th of March.

RyanRose · « **Reply #17 on:** January 10, 2007, 03:42:48 AM »

Just going to be a different marketing campain thats all

eddie · « **Reply #18 on:** January 10, 2007, 03:51:34 AM »

it just means that harley-davidson have stop promoting that product

juliusfek1 · « **Reply #19 on:** January 10, 2007, 04:29:00 AM »

for me it simply means they are changing marketing strategy.

SlashNBurn · « **Reply #20 on:** January 10, 2007, 04:58:06 AM »

People are reading WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY to much into these things.....? It's like they're tryin' to pick holes in absolutely EVERYTHING looking for "a sign".

I'd say the ad was pulled because they are finally going to start a proper promotional campaign and not some wacky strategy conjured up by "Merck The Jerk"!!!

IF the album is to be released on March 6 - even though Axl did say "TENTATIVE", the promotions would want to start in the next couple of weeks......?

sunnyp · « **Reply #21 on:** January 10, 2007, 05:48:43 AM »

Its no big deal. The man spoke out and said in March unless you hear different, or words to that effect, so I guess we just need to sit tight.

Ever since that letter last year I have found a new degree of respect for Axl. Lets all just chill out for a bit and not read into things too much.

We'll wait n see.....? Hopefully, the fact that his band(almost)disappeared down the toilet might've woken him up......?

hey look on the bright side. So far this news of the "coming soon" being taken down hasn't made duffer crap his pants...that's usually a good sign that things are ok and no need to panic.
