Axl Rose Prepares To Plunge Back Into The Music-Video World

Yesterday, we asked if anybody had heard anything about Chinese Democracy, which is supposedly due out in less than a month. One tipster sent this mini-update:

I can definitely tell you that a completed, fully mastered (not the patchy internet version thats been floating around for awhile) track of “Better” is being sent around to various directors to write for a music video. No real idea on when its looking to be shot but definitely very soon. The song btw, is actually pretty fantastic.

Hmmm. We’ll believe it when we see it, but we have some words of warning for any director hoping to work with Axl: Don’t look him in the eye, don’t ask him when the record’s coming out, and by all means, don’t tell him that there’s not enough money in the budget for a dolphin-wrangler.

Earlier: “Chinese Democracy” Is (Maybe, Possibly, Inconceivably) Only A Month Away!
