Re: Nascar Commerial last night
Well it will get fans who may not be following G&R news from day to day to go to their computer and search the G&R sites and find out what's going on with G&R. It's a subltle promotion without overkill or pushing it in the publics eyes and ears. (These days many fans are so busy with trying to make a living they might not be aware of G&R and their new cd.) Does that make any sense? lolo
No, that does not make sense, but nothing does in the GNR world, so I wouldn't feel too badly about it if I were you.
Re: Nascar Commerial last night
All I was saying is a well known song from G&R was used for a commerical that is sort of a promotion for the up and coming G&R tour.
Tours usually don't advertise nationally. They advertise regionally before tickets go on sale & come to town. Also, they wouldn't advertise before announcing it, and wouldn't advertise if they're not the headlining band (haven't followed this section much, wasn't it said they would tour "with" someone else {VH})
Also, it would be either :30 or :60 EXACT! Not "up until the first verse". And are you saying it was a NASCAR commercial, or a GnR tour commercial that aired during a Nascar race??!

It was a Nascar commercial. But what I don't get is for the last ten years or maybe more I never saw any commercials using any G&R songs weather it was the original line-up; Illusion line-up or the current line up.
I know they have played a few in movies but never to promote a commercial for another corporation. lolo

All I was saying is a well known song from G&R was used for a commerical that is sort of a promotion for the up and coming G&R tour. I guess they could of used a song from CD which would of been great. But perhaps they chose Welcome to the Jungle to remind the original fans of G&R that Axl and new company are on their way to promote a new cd. I think it was cool that they chose Welcome to the Jungle because it is a song that is already well known by the older fans and the newer fans. lolo .........Axl: Don't you try to stop us now.......because I just won't let you!!!!!!!

Not really...They've been using well known GN'R songs for years even when the band had no hope of being active...
And not to be blunt but...Where the hell have you been in the last 10 years. They use GN'R songs for everything and anything...
