Van Halen?

SPREADING DEMOCRACY AROUND THE WORLD: Axl Rose intends to take the current lineup of Guns N’ Roses out on a worldwide stadium tour this summer, industry insiders told rollingstone.com. “Axl has been basically quiet, keeping out of the limelight for almost 15 years,” said Guns manager Irving Azoff in the news item. “People think they know him, but they really only know what has been said about him by questionable people. He is a good guy and often misunderstood—he is a professional who has worked very hard to build and maintain a high creative standard for Guns N’ Roses, which I support. We have some exciting things in the works this year for GNR, I’m looking forward to it.” Right on the heels of this news come unconfirmed reports about a co-headlining tour with GNR and fellow L.A. hard-rock icons Van Halen. If this pairing comes to pass, we’re betting it’ll move some serious ducats.

And this place continues to depress me more and more every day.

If you need me, I'll be at HTGTH.

I don't see what's negative about the situation at all.

"Chinese Democracy" has already gone gold.

Best Buy has sold roughly 1/4 to 1/3 of it's entire stock in a little over a month and a half.

"Chinese Democracy" is STILL a top 10 hit at rock radio.

"Better" should be in the top 10 next week.

Besides the lack of promotion, how is this a disaster? Because from the facts that I just posted, it sure as fuck doesn't seem like one to me.

97.9X, the station that I work for/with - is still playing both. "Better" has been one of the most requested songs ever since it debuted. It's been a "Buzzcut" ever since.
