hello all. handle here is xcitor. or Johnny X or just John, which is my real name. i found a link to these forums on the support forums for the software that drives this place. i run a music-related forum, and was checking out some of the chatter about the new version of the forum software.

i won't mention the name of the forums i run, cuz i'm not here to pimp them, i'm just here to be a member of your fine community. and i'm sure those of you who spend your spare time as internet detectives can figure it out anyway

i'm not the biggest GN'R fan i know, but i am a big fan. i was 19 when AFD came out and like so many others, my life has not been the same since. i have not quite given up on CD ever coming out, but if i don't see it in 2008, i will be disappointed---again. yeah, i've heard it all. it's in the label's hands. the label and Axl are working out a promotion budget. whatever. Axl should put the record out.

i've heard the leaks in their various stages of completeness, and i like what i hear. i will buy CD the day it comes out, whenever that is.

nice to meet y'all.

rock.
