PC add will run through the 19th of November - Harley Davidson

It would be wise to wait until tomorrow on this subject.

I thought they said the PC version runs through the 19th, which would mean it would run today as well. The Better version would start after the 19th.

Didn't the press release say that the Better ad would bow aired after the PC commercial stops airing? It also said the PC ad stops airing on the 19th.
I thought all along that the 20th is more likely than the 19th.

EDIT: polluxlm has the same idea

No, it never said that the "Better" version would start airing AFTER the PC ad was taken down. The PC version runs through today. But, the press release actually said the "Better" version would start airing in EARLY NOVEMBER. It is now late November and it hasn't started airing yet. I wouldn't expect it to start airing tomorrow either, especially considering the press release never indicated that Harley would wait until the PC ad was finished to start airing the "Better" version.

Good question, but the Harley press release specifically mentioned that the "Better" version was going to start airing in early November.


GUNS N' ROSES LICENSES MUSIC TO HARLEY-DAVIDSON BLACK SHEEP
Monday, November 6, 2006 - Harley-Davidson Press Release

Guns N' Roses has licensed music to Harley-Davidson for a new television commercial, "Black Sheep." The commercial was shot in black and white and shows black sheep of various herds escaping and running wild while the Guns N' Roses hit, "Paradise City" plays in the background. At the end of the commercial, the black sheep end up at a Harley-Davidson motorcycle rally. This marks the first time Guns N' Roses has agreed to license one of their songs for a commercial.

The "Black Sheep" commercial, featuring "Paradise City," will air during Busch Grand National and Nextel Cup Races October 8 through November 19. An alternative version, launching early November, premieres the new, exclusive, unreleased Guns N' Roses track "Better" from their new album, "Chinese Democracy," which will be released later this year.

They seem to contradict themselves saying that Paradise City will be running until the 19th, and Better in early November.
Maybe they meant to put December! Who knows.

why even bother to figure GNR out? nothing makes sense or runs smoothly....it can drive you crazy if you believe GNR camp, b/c lots of things don't happen when they are supposed. They might happen, they might never happen....contradictions everywhere, strange happenings all the time....its all so bizarre sometimes.

Iam sure that Slash and Duff are pleased..... Another old GnR tune in a comercial means more $$$$$$$ for them..

another burried New GnR song means nothing for the new band!!!!!!!

You know when you really look at the press release, all it does is talk about the PC version and say it will run through today. It says there will be an "alternate" version with better, but it doesn't say when it will air at all. I think it was supposed to be an alternate, meaning not the main one, meaning maybe just on the site or aired sparingly (and really i've always thought the better version wasn't as good because of using two different parts of the song and not being as in synch with the video).
In other words i think the better version was simply scrapped at some point, or it would have been used all month, and i think the PC version is done airing now.

Are you blind? I provided the press release. It CLEARLY states that the Better version was supposed to start airing in EARLY NOVEMBER. I may be an idiot, but November 19th is well past "early November." As for the last part of your post, I completely agree with you! I honestly think the "Better" launch got completely scrapped, probably because the album release got scrapped as well.

Yeah... the release said the better version would be "launching early november," whatever that means.
I don't remember, when was it removed from the site, before that?

My only point is that when they called it an alternate version, i think that meant it was to be significantly less visible anyway, just sort of a novelty, but either way i think it's scrapped now.

Thats because it was made with Paradise City in mind, they obviously rushed it and just put better over the top as best they could. Either way i doubt we will see it for a while, looks like someones plans have changed!!
