Chinese Democracy!

I know you think we've forgotten, but we haven't! We're still working on our group review of the new latest GN'R album Chinese Democracy. We've had a few changes in our lineup, as you know, some comings and goings from the Gheorghe staff and such, so we're going to have a new take on this. It will be well worth the anticipation! Look for it sometime in 2011. Or 2012. 2013 at the latest. I swear!

What We've All Been Waiting For...

Hope everyone's holiday season has been treating them well. Speaking of treats, we're looking to finalize our long-awaited review of the GN'R album Chinese Democracy. It's actually going to be a lot bigger and better than we'd originally anticipated, so it'll probably be up sometime in February. Stay tuned! It will be worth the wait.

Coming Soon!

Well, it seems implausible, but somehow Blogger screwed us and deleted our draft post of our reviews of the new GN'R album Chinese Democracy. We're going to redo them and have it up soon. I'd say look for it by December 15 at the latest!!

In the meantime, enjoy your 12 Days of Gheorghe-mas.

See You Next Tuesday!

Yeah . . . so we're still waiting on a couple of stragglers to give us their take on the new GN'R album Chinese Democracy. Let's do this -- you guys listen to it a few times over the Thanksgiving holiday, and we will post the group review next Tuesday, December 2. Sorry for the delay, but trust us . . . you'll be thankful for it when it's out!

Quick Announcement

Just a placeholder . . . it seems that some but not all of us (not mentioning any names... yet) have compiled their thoughts on the new GN'R album Chinese Democracy. We promise to have it up sometime tomorrow.

G:TB Album of the . . . Time Period

Sunday is the day you've been waiting for! And by "you" I mean you, Bill Bailey. (Bill's more commonly known as W. Axl Rose.)

For Sunday, November 23 marks the day that the long-promised, not-as-long-awaited album Chinese Democracy appears in store. (sic, as it's only available at Best Buy). It's a piece of work that 's been worked on, scrapped, re-scheduled, mocked, announced, postponed, postponed again, mocked some more, finally finished, and shipped to Best Buys around the country for distribution this . . . Sunday? Apparently it's been so long that Axl has forgotten that albums traditionally get released on Tuesdays. Oh, I see, he's being irreverent, like when he donned the corn rows and when he smoked out of that cigarette extension holder thing. Good stuff.

Anyway, I don't know if there's any truth to the rumor that Axl just wanted a free Dr. Pepper (get yours online starting Sunday), but it's happening. Of course, lost in all of this is the music, and whether it will be reminiscent of the glory days of Slash, Izzy, & Duff or just dreck that the assemblage of GN'R wannabes who now comprise the roster churn out. We shall see (hear).

Gheorghe: The Blog / Music Division, despite the tone of this post, is going to take the high road and give Chinese Democracy the benefit of the doubt. We will purchase the record (that was for you, Mark), each take an extended listen, and conduct a group review of the album. This way you'll know whether it's worth the money to buy (or effort to pirate). We're cool like that . . . plus, it's been a rather dry autumn for album releases.

The review of Chinese Democracy will be posted on Gheorghe on Tuesday, November 25. Get fired up!
