Title: FAKE: Axl pic mention with VMA's

a person said they were in the Village in NYC and saw a poster of VMA's with Axl's pic and said they think that at VMA's, they will announce CD release date.

i'll believe it when i see it and/or will wait for an official announcement though.

this has been your friendly dolphin passing the message along.

I will now go back to the ocean for a swim ;D

I don't know why but I doubt you'll see axl at the vmas again, but then there's the side that says they kiss his ass so maybe.. I just think with the youth loving pop and rap they don't have to have older band sunless it was a monumental reunion or something..

This MIGHT be true.

In the new issue of Blender magazine (with Paris Hilton on the cover) there is indeed a full page ad for the VMAs (showing the moonman statue though) with a huge purple box over it and the phrase ALL WILL BE REVEALED.

So if this guy is lying, he's half right anyway.

Agreed, Mutherfunker.  Just fucking brilliant with that joke  ::)

Anywho, I doubt anything will happen at the VMAs with regards to CD being announced.  We'll see, though.  If it's a commercial during the VMAs or something, that would be expensive, I would think.

Okay, I just registered to give you this info. I saw a commercial on VMA 2006 last week on MTV in the early afternoon, and it was featuring all of the artists. While I was still listening, I heard Guns N' Roses, with a short Band Pic(Some Concert they attended that was taken), and that was it. It was a short commercial, but I couldn't believe my ears. I went to HGTGH or Chinese Democracy, and there was nothing about this. I was shocked! Then when someone say that they saw a pic with Axl w/ VMA on it, I had to reply. You may say "Fowl!" but I don't care. I'm not trying to give hope or anything, but I'm just trying to tell you that I experienced this.

Of course, there should be talks about Guns N' Roses coming to VMA 2006 because I know about 2 million people watched that commercial, but I'm surprised nobody was talking about it.

Post by: Ellroy on August 19, 2006, 06:11:08 PM
Before everyone kills this guy I just want to add that last night I was in New York at the James Gang show. As we were walking to the show a poster on the side of a mailbox or streetlight or something caught my eye. From what I can remember it was a yellow (or perhaps orange) poster. There were no images on it from what I noticed, only text, but it said something along the lines of "All will be revealed. August 31st". There were a few more lines of text on the poster but I didn't take note of what it said as we were just walking by.
      I never would have thought of it again but what this guy claims to have seen made me think of it. Once again, I saw no pictures or anything, only text but the poster contained the words "All will be revealed. August 31st". I'm not jumping on any VMA bandwagon, I just wanted to substantiate this guys claims. The poster I saw may have nothing to do with Axl or the VMAs, but there are posters in NYC that say what he told us he saw. If anyone wants to check it out it should be somewhere between 71st and 74th on Broadway. The concert was at the Beacon theater so the poster would be on the same side of the street. However, I may be wrong and I may have seen it on the way to diner. In that case it would be somewhere between 53rd and 6th and 48th and I think 9th, but it might have been 8th. I'm pretty sure I saw it on the way to the show and not dinner but I may be wrong.
      Anyway I just wanted to let everyone know that some sort of poster (yellow or orange with black or perhaps dark brown lettering) in NYC is advertising that "All will be revealed. August 31st." Don't know what it means or has to do with GNR (probably nothing) but it does exist.

the infamous http://gnfr.com

Check it out.? Some interesting pics to say the least.? The filename of the first pic is "Signs are Everywhere!"

The second is "What once was will be again"? A reference to a VMA performance?

Now highlight the bottom of the screen.? Cryptic.


Is gnfr.com bullshit?? Hopefully we'll find out soon.? This certainly does add fuel to the VMA rumour though.?

Can anyone say round 2?

I don't think we're going to get a picture of it either. No reason for someone to go to the Village if they don't live far uptown or whatever just to snap a picture to prove they saw it. If the person that saw it really wants to go back down and do it he/she will. I just want to reiterate that a saw a similar poster Friday night. No picture of Axl, but I saw a yellow poster with black text that said "All will be revealed. August 31st." Doesn't mean it has to do with GNR, but posters of these sort do exist. I saw it with my own two eyes only about 30 some hours ago.

That site has been spreading its message for years.

He's something alright. ?:hihi:

In a world where we have plenty of people who think they know what's going on, Mysteron doesn't. If he has info, he posts it. He's one of the few people I consider a reliable source of information.

I would highly doubt that MTV would promote the VMA's with "All Will Be Revealed" in relation to Guns N' Roses.  It's not a celebration of ONE band, a lifetime achievement award for a band who has yet to release an album.  It just doesn't seem to fit.  I think we're reading into this one a little bit.  However I must say, I hope it's about them and I hope they play there.  But I doubt it.

However I must say, I hope it's about them and I hope they play there.? But I doubt it.

good point!!

I just fell we jump the gun to many times!

its MTV big year!

We have many NYkers.

Didn't Merck confirm this as some "Amateur made fan-site" recently? (As in, 2006)

Some months ago there was a thread about some GNR site, I'm not sure what site it was, and mysteron told us that the management was aware of the site and knew who ran the site. If you're talking about this, are you sure it was about the riddle site?

just been watching mtv in uk just seen the ad for the vmas and nothing bout gnr so i dont knoe if tha other advert exists or not ,maybe they have more than 1 advert maybe not,but didnt somone say we would hear something in aug?

I believe Richard said something like that yes...

I believe Richard said they would update their official site after the euro tour.

the person who allegedly saw the poster made one post and now can not be heard from.  We believe spontaneous combustion is responsible.  Its been a few hours since weve heard from him.  Though something might happen at the vmas, this appears to be bullshit.  Some dude saw 1 poster some where in nyc and has mysteriosly vanished,  I wouldnt put too much into this yet.

I don't remember. As far as I remember, management said it's not GN'R related years ago.

That site has been spreading its message for years.



Im way late to the game on this one, but why is it that whenever something like this comes up people always ask Mysteron to confirm or deny it? is he an insider or something>

He's something alright. ?:hihi:

In a world where we have plenty of people who think they know what's going on, Mysteron doesn't. If he has info, he posts it. He's one of the few people I consider a reliable source of information.

Quote
is he an insider or something>

no but some people here think so...


I don't think he ever claimed to be one....



/jarmo


Mysteron only says that to by cryptic and to dodge the question (nothing wrong with this by the way). It's obvious he has links with Merck what with organising the presales and all that. My guess is that he's just a sanctuary spokesperson. He communicates whatever Merck tells him to. Merck probably doesn't do it himself because if he was a member of this board he would get inundated with questions which could harm any confidentiality with his artists.

Sorry to be repetitive but I repeat that I saw a similar poster on Friday night. Nothing with Axl on it, but the poster I saw somewhere between 71st and 74th and Broadway on the same side of the street at the Beacon Theater (I think that's where I saw it) did indeed say "All will be revealed. August 31st". Probably has nothing to do with GNR but is rather some kind of promotion in general for the VMAs (the other guy probably saw a similar poster and made an assumption about GNR), but I can't say for sure as I didn't really get a good look at it. There was more written on it, but I didn't take notice. Perhaps someone who lives in the area can run down to where I saw it (once again, I THINK this is where it was. It could have been on the way to dinner which means it could be anywhere between 53rd and Avenue of the Americas and the Josuha Tree restaurant which I think was on 46th). So if anyone wants to run around New York and retrace my steps in an attempt to find a poster that probably is only promotional for the VMAs and has nothing to do with GNR, be my guest. You now know where to look.

IF GNR was going to play the VMA's I think Dizzy would excuse himself from the Hookers and Blow show and make an appearance with the band that help pay his bills.  Hookers and Blow is a nice side project for Dizzy but let's face it, if he wasn't in GNR nobody would know who H&B are and no one could care less.

Nobody watching the VMA's would notice or give a shit if Dizzy wasn't playing with GnR. The guy is just a fucking keyboard player, and they have another more talented keyboard player named Chris Pitman anyway. Axl could fire Dizzy at anytime, and nobody would give a fuck.

I live in Manhattan and there is one of these "all will be revealed" posters a few steps from my apt. building. ?It has nothing to do w/ Gn'R. ?It's just a picture of a moon man all covered up w/ the "all will be revealed" slogan.

If any of you want to watch the boring VMA's which have been a complete joke the last couple of years, then have fun, and dont be disappointed. I would suggest recording it, that way you can watch it back in fast forward and if by some fluke GNR are there then you can just press play.
The VMA's used to be something very cool to watch, but anymore its nothing but a snoozer.

"All will be revealed" is referring to a new behind the scenes live show that will be on Overdrive (mtv's on line video channell).  There was a segment for most memorable moment in the VMA's and they did mention the return of GNR in 02.
There is always that chance they'll be an anouncement but I much doubt it.

by far the best scenario would be if they compiled some footage from the tour with an announcement. t
his takes away the scetchiness factor as far as a live to air performance goes - we dont want a repeat of 2002 . This way the footage will be controlled and compiled of the best moments of the Euro tour - could be a very effective and exciting way to get things kicked off - and of course the audience and exposure would be fantastic

I think GNR should perform at the VMA's since he is going to finally release Chinese Democracy this year.  I'm sure MTV would love to have them, since they blow away the rest of the performers, and I don't see why Axl wouldn't do it, so I bet that they show.

The poster must be BS. There's no memtion of Gn'R appearing at this years VMAs on the official MTV VMA website. IF they knew Gn'R were going to appear they would say so on the website. They mention Shaun White appearing (isn't he a snowboarder?). If Gn'R do show it'll be a last minute thing. What would be good, taking into account that it is a video awards show, if maybe MTV were to air Gn'Rs latest video (assuming there is a new video. Wasn't there a rumour a little while ago about a Gn'R video being shot. That could have been BS too  :peace: )

any hint? or am I looking way too much into this? maybe I'm just paranoid :confused:

anyway, one more thing, is there any other musical guest called Andy?? cuz that was another name in there.. but couldn't connect it to anything

That is a bit weird - Why "Rose" in big letters?

Well done dodger girl, I like a good theory with a bit of intrigue.
