[lbo-talk] G'n'R in China

[John E. Norem]

It has taken 17 years for the band to produce a new studio record. Now, 
even before it goes on sale Sunday, in a release heralded by its 
producers as a "historic moment in rock ' n' roll," the disc is getting 
the thumbs down from Chinese authorities. It's also causing anxiety 
among GN'R's legion of loyal fans here, who aren't sure they like what 
lead singer W. Axl Rose is trying to say about their country.
