GUNS N' ROSES Bassist: 'Chinese Democracy' Will Be Out 'Sooner Than Hell Freezing Over'

January 20, 2005

GUNS N' ROSES bassist Tommy Stinson told the Pioneer Press earlier this week that the long-awaited new GN'R album "Chinese Democracy" is being finished as we speak."

When pressed to elaborate on what could possibly be left to finish on a record that has been at least a decade in the works, Stinson said "some vocal parts and mixes," adding that once the band decides what songs make the final cut, GN'R will, oh yes, tour.

"You know, it'll come out probably sooner than later, I can just about assure you," he said. "I've been told as much, anyway. Without giving a date, it'll be sooner than hell freezing over."

After the current tour to support his solo debut, "Village Gorilla Head", Stinson goes back to GN'R — assuming that album actually comes out — and hopes to produce some new bands and maybe stretch out into film scoring.

"My goal this year is to do everything better," he said. "And to do a lot more of it," he said.
