Re: Shackler's Revenge: REALLY confirmed
Well, buckethead's Jordan was unknown to everyone but BH fans, and it went on to become the most-talked about song of Guitar Hero. His shows sell out now and younger fans now dominate his concerts and online forums. So, an unheard song can be a success and can draw in the crowd GNR no doubt covets.
Fair enough, so this song might not end up being a single then. RB2 could be released with SR having not been heard by the majority who will buy the game until they play it.
Re: Shackler's Revenge: REALLY confirmed
Somebody's sounding like a broken record 
It could be, but there's an ocean of difference between Buckethead and Guns N' Roses. There's no reason for him to release a single since nobody knows who he is. Axl and Guns on the other hand...they can, should and will release some sort of single. You don't put it in people's hands to discover a new song from this type of album.

Bri's really trying to get his point across huh?
That's very true, I'd wondered if this track might be a b-side or a bonus that they're putting on RB2 but as Mysteron has said it'll be on the album that's obviously not the case. Doesn't necessarily mean it's a single but it would be a good way to promote one.

Re: Shackler's Revenge: REALLY confirmed
I imagine it will be announced on Billboard or Reuters or Business Wire. Something like that. Billboard updates their site around 10-11am.
There will be a press release at 10.30PST
From EA/Harmonix, it seems. It should officially confirm the inclusion of GNR and Shackler to Rock Band 2. That's around 2½ hours away, so we'll see what happens.
