Re: Check out this new rumor
It's not that far fetched to be honest but I still think it's a load of BS. As someone else said why fork 13 mil into a project and then jeapordize their chances of recouping that money by not investing in promotion, doesn't make sense.
Does she really think proper journalists are going to stop what they are doing and cause a huge fuss because some forum geeks emailed them to say Axl hasn't released CD because the label won't pay for advertising. 
Someone should try and call that girl back to earth.
Re: Check out this new rumor
a bit to old for message boards but her boyfreinds dad is still working? hmm
anyway its crap, as BS stated i doubt axl would be involved in a marketing budget....how would he even know where to begin with marketing? i didnt realize artists dealt with that stuff....
I'm still sticking to my guns that the delay is a problem with management, Axl wants to self manage and Geffen wants to have one of their guys behind the band
Re: Check out this new rumor
this is crap, there's a very easy solution for it.
if Axl demands mega bucks for marketing and promotion, the record company could easily say that they will foot the bill each time a component is completed, and pay suppliers directly, as opposed to handing over cash to him to manage.
so, as the cover gets done, they pay for it....as the booklet gets done, they pay for it, as the video concept and costs come through, they pay for it....
its not marketing cash that they're arguing about, its something much larger.....unless Axl is planning on launching this thing on the moon, in which case they should tell him to fuck off....
