$1,500 To "Charity" For Unheard Chinese Democracy Demo

[Kov]

genuinely funny indeed

[L!VE FREE!]

I really wish that the leakers would contact people, that'd make bribing them with money and guitars so much easier. *hint hint*

  Thats so fucking stupid

Thats so fucking stupid 

You nailed it.

[L!VE FREE!]

You nailed it.

Why is that stupid? Because they want to hear music and are looking to exploit good old American capitalism? Sounds pretty smart to me.

+1 at least more and more people are getting desperate enough to want it to come out. Sooner or later something has to budge.

touching gesture, I thought.

Guns N Roses fan from mygnr now says he will give $500 to charity if the band leaks a new song before summer. Original offer was $300.

from mygnr:

It's really sad that it's coming to this, but I honestly don't see any other alternative if we ever truly want to hear any new music from Axl. I mean seriously, talk about de-ja-vu day after day when it comes to this endless saga. No albums, no updates, no tours. It really does get depressing when you think about how some of the best music ever made was sang by this man.

Like many other working adults, I received my tax stimulus refund recently ($600). As requested, I went out and helped to stimulate the economy by purchasing some accessories for my bike. That was $300. I'm fairly lucky, I suppose. Can't say there is much right now I am in need of, or want for that matter. (No, I'm not giving it to any of you - so save it). Even though I know this is VERY HIGHLY unlikely to happen, here goes:

To: Axl Rose, bandmembers, or management (of the band),

If you leak the community an unheard demo in it's entirety off the supposedly forthcoming Chinese Democracy album, before the first day of summer (June 21), I will donate the remainder of my tax stimulus refund ($300) to GN'R or their management's charity of choice. Yes, I realize $300 isn't very much money, and I know that Axl could easily donate 10,000 times this amount without thinking twice, but regardless, some charity could always use this extra money. Not to mention, I think it's an extremely fair amount of money for one song. Especially considering this album is supposedly very close to coming out.

In the very, very off chance that this proposal is actually accepted, and if preferred, I would be willing to send a paypal deposit to the forum's admin prior to the song being leaked (if that would be ok with the forum admin). If not, (somebody) contact me via PM. The song must contain Axl's vocals and cannot be a remix of a song that has already been previously leaked. Again, if this album seriously is about to come out, as it's been hinted for years, I don't see how one demo being leaked would do anything except create more of a buzz. Especially, if it's a kick ass song. And especially if the album truly is close to being released.

So please Axl, don't respond on your website by saying "we are surprised and very happy to have the support of" Incognito. Just let us know if you accept. Please, throw the fan base a bone.



P.S. - "Prostitute" or "Atlas Shrugged" sound like they would be pretty interesting. (*Hint* Hint)

I think this is good for the rest of us. Lets hope that the guy who gets it isn't going to share!

This idea is so crazy but maybe it's what we need. I really don't know what we should do to convince the record company that we will buy this album. If I heard that people were willing to pay $500 for one of my songs I would release an album.  I really wish Axl would tell us what the hold up is. 

[reddragon53545]

 at this point I am willing to give GNR exactly what they have given us for the past 2 years.. nothing

[axl_04]

That's not true, they have given us a bunch of awesome kick ass shows. We got to hear Axl sing Don't Cry for the first time in years. He even sang his new songs. He made a few announcements the past few months. I'm sorry but I'm just happy to have Axl around. And when the album is ready, you will hear it.

[reddragon53545]

 I live outside of milwaukee.. and he cancelled 10 hours before the show..  with again no apology .. nothing..

 so those lucky enough to see GNR .. I agree with your statement.. as far as my neck of the woods .. he has given us a overflowing cup of disappointment

[Boston George]

I guess this guy's offer even made the newswire over at gnrdaily.
