Mate of mine on another baord keeps saying we will know when its coming out because it will apear in a country like Germany for example on the friday before one of these tuesdays, and on the Monday before in the UK.
Who thinks this is true?
It is standard practise for this to happen but that would mean the US were the last to get it, after Europe and the UK.

No its not... Worldwide everyone gets monday within 12 hours of each other..... So since germany gets releases on fridays.. would they get it the friday before or after a 14th or 21st or 28? Thus telling us 4 days in advance when its coming out in the UK/USA |

If I remember correctly Metallica's St.Anger were released on the same day worldwide, so I think it will happen with C.D. too!

Cool so are we waiting on Tuesday for CD to appear or shouldnt we simply be waiting to hear from a country like germany.
Surely its fair to say if we dont hear anything on the fridays before each tuesday then its not coming out that coming tuesday?
Ie judgement day for the 28th, most common rumoured date, is the Friday prior?

Nothing about this release will be normal. I'm expecting it to be released on a Tuesday worldwide, regardless of which day an album usually drops in that given country.

The title of this thread says it all. There is often just one, world-wide release date for albums. The only difference in time of release country to country would be a few hours.

Surely it wouldn't be in anybody's interests to release it worldwide on the same day? If countries have different release days it's probably got something to do with the way their charts are compiled. In the UK albums typically drop on a monday and our official album chart is announced on a Sunday evening. If Chinese Democracy was to be a Tuesday release in the UK that would be one day's lost sales towards that week's chart position. Call me stupid but with all the delays and problems associated with the launch of this album it would be lunacy to intentionally handicap it further by courting bad publicity with an artificially low chart placing. |

Yea that would matter if we were worried bout it going straight in at number one... but I dont think we should be....
Its more possible it'll sit top 10 for a very long time rather than top 5 for a shorter space of time.

It might not matter to the fans but like I said this album's been a long time coming and needs all the good publicity it can get to appeal to people other than the die hards. The knives will no doubt be out in the press around release day wanting Axl to fail and I can imagine magazines such as Kerrang for example taking great pleasure in labelling CD a flop if it doesn't chart sufficiently highly. |
