Anyone heard about this yet?

[TrueRock&Roll]

This is cool.  I love the cover of the book.  Please be the year of Guns N' Roses

[pilferk]

Possibly a Large Format (ie: The size of a HC book) Paperback and a Mass Market (standard Paperback size) version?

[Crowebar]

Cool man. Can't wait to read it.

I'm guessing the unauthorized bio's publishing company has smelled that CD's release is near, so they're gonna try to capitalize on the promotion and hype around it by releasing their crap around the time CD is released. The only problem is that they don't know exactly when it will be released, hence the 2 release dates. If CD gets released sooner, they will release their crap in April, if it gets pushed back until right before the RIR 4 performance, it will be May.

This bio seems totally lame. It offers interviews with EX-band members and photos from the band's early days. It has no new interviews with ACTUAL-band members or current pictures. On a second thought, not having pics of the new band is probably a good thing. But as for as I'm concerned, this "unauthorized biography" is completely irrelevant. Save your $$$.

It's strange to see a picture of Axl2K superimposed over the original lineup. A pretty good summary of the band's history, actually. As far as different release dates, I only saw January. But sometimes they use different dates for US and Non-US.

It's funny that the new pic is in color and the old is black & white.

Aahhh, thank you Will. That is strange to have separate dates four months apart.

I have seen it for release in May(amazon,etc.) But Barnes and Noble says it will be relaesed 1/28.  Anyone know the deal with that? I want to read it, but don't want to order it and get my hopes up for a 1/28 release and have to wiat until May to actually get it.  This happens to me alot, I order something and it either gets delayed or pushed back.  Thanks for any info.....

I ordered it.  I received an email from barnes and noble that said when it is shipped, they will notify me.

As far as I know, it's still scheduled for 1/28 because I never received an email saying it was delayed.

What a daft title for the book, the very fact any of us are here now (or on our way to RIR4) shows that its untrue. GNR haven't been forgotten, they are still widely loved....people may not know they still exist but they haven't forgotten 'Guns N Roses'

Book Description
The personal and musical history of Guns N' Roses is detailed in this revealing band biography. Timed to coincide with the highly anticipated release of Chinese Democracy, their first album in 10 years, this compelling account offers complete, updated information on the band's incredible past and current ambitions. New interviews with ex-band members, including lead guitarist Slash and bass player Duff, provide fresh revelations about the band's key players. Previously unpublished color photographs from the group's early days gathered from ex-members' personal collections offer an intriguing visualization of the band's past.

As long as i read it right Amazon did

[kujo722]

You did read it right.

However like the actual CD this book has already had a few different release dates since we first heard of it.

I always pass unauthorized and unofficial crap by coz that's what it usually is : CRAP. But again, that's just my opinnion
