GUNS N' ROSES: Another 'Chinese Democracy' Song Leaked

May 7, 2007

A studio mix of another new GUNS N' ROSES song, "There Was a Time", was leaked on Sunday, May 6, making it the fourth new GN'R track in two days to be released via the Internet ("The Blues", "Chinese Democracy" and "I.R.S." were leaked two days earlier). "There Was a Time" (also known as "T.W.A.T.") was played live only twice — at the first New York City warm-up show on May 12, 2006 and Madrid, Spain on May 25, 2006 — and was mentioned as one of GN'R singer Axl Rose's favorites in an interview he gave to Rolling Stone magazine in January 2006. All tracks are rumored to be set for inclusion on GUNS N' ROSES' upcoming album "Chinese Democracy".

"Chinese Democracy" is the first GUNS N' ROSES album since the 1993 covers collection "The Spaghetti Incident". In the ensuing decade, the group has lost every original member besides singer Axl Rose and burned through a reported $13 million in recording expenses.

Longtime GUNS N' ROSES associate Del James revealed in a February 2007 online posting that "Chinese Democracy" was in the "mixing" stage.

GUNS N' ROSES has announced that the band's 2007 world tour will begin on June 2 in Monterrey, Mexico. Launch dates in South Africa and Japan were bumped due to a wrist injury sustained by bassist Tommy Stinson.

GUNS N' ROSES has been sued by a New Jersey-based production company for unpaid fees, according to TMZ.com. The gossip site acquired a copy of the recently filed lawsuit, in which Starlift Logistics alleges that it was hired to provide transportation and touring services for GN'R's 2006 U.S. tour. The firm claims that GUNS frontman W. Axl Rose and other associates owe Starlift more than $107,000 for services rendered.

The GUNS N' ROSES camp has not responded publicly to the lawsuit.
