Chinese Democracy in PORTUGAL!
« on: November 24, 2008, 11:50:13 AM »
ok so apparently Chinese Democracy came out today and i got a copy. Yesterday i went ahead and sent a mail to a store who isn't affiliated with any best buy kind of store... its a  mom and pops store, with a whole bunch of bootlegs and retail albums.

I sent a mail cause usually they have the cds for sale before the "legal" date. Apparently they had CD since the 18th. The real thing, but they didn't receive a whole lot of copies.. and they all vanished in a second  :lol:

So i only bought it today on a chain store called Fnac. A store kinda like best buy. And i was surprised that there wasnt any promotion whatsoever of Chinese Democracy. Not 1 poster, not one ad not one goddamn nothing.
The only thing there was. Was a bunch of chinese democracy cd all together and a thing for u to listen to it.

Then u go to the hard rock section, where the other GNR cds are and u see all this old gnr cds and 1 copy of chinese democracy.

Oh and as soon as u enter the store theres the new cds. And there it was "still! " death magnetic, Coldplay's cd and a tokyo hotel box set.

Fuck... its so ridiculous that this album is not having any promotion!

Anyways im listening to CD right now and the sound quality is amazing!

Oh and curious enough when i went to listen to CD. who did i find? Ana Rose who usually posts on this forum. Too bad she ignored me lol

Sorry for posting in portuguese...

Aposto que estas a falar da carbono.

 Eu arranjei o meu CD directamente da fonte, no dia 13. A fnac esta realmente muita fraquinha na exposiçao deste album, mas o media markt ainda estava pior. Nem sequer o tinham exposto hoje ao inicio da tarde.

Agree...and GNR (Axl) doesn't seem to be doing much about it!
