It says new site coming soon, so I guess this is only a temporary thing.

Yes, you are probably right. The fact that they are updating the website -- finally -- really suggests that Axl has his heart in it still. It really make me believe that we will see and hear more from GN'R in the future.

I definitely do hope so! Might've made more sense to have the website ready before the US tour, oh well...

Haha, yes, it would have made a lot more sense. And perhaps relaunched Chinese Democracy with the correct artwork and a bonus song or two. But I agree, oh well...

There's an interactive, member's area at the forum. But you have to pay a fee to get access to those areas. I have paid the fee and will check out what it is. I'll report back.

So, I've been poking around a bit to see what the official site has to offer. First of all you have to pay a membership fee to get access to the interactive community. I can't remember the prices, but I think it was 29.99 and 59.99 $, for regular and VIP membership. In addition to access to the interactive communities members also gets a bandana, a membership card and possible discounts on shows. With the VIP membership you also get a t-shirt.
The interactive community consists of a very basic forum, chat, contests, and blogs. The forum is really not worth spending money on (unless, of course, Axl becomes a regular, but still then whatever he says will be posted here and on the other fan boards. The chat is the say as I have embedded here, so no need to sign up for that one. The contests I am not sure about.
All in all, I found the price a bit too high, there is not really much else offered than what you find at htgth, mygnr and a4d. Unless the band members start posting at the official forum and you want to interact with them.

You're right. Now I feel A4D is inferior. I will have to do something about that...

Offer hats/fedoras or... Can't think of anything else at the moment. Ah, ashtrays may go well.

By the way dunno if it's possible or necessary but video chat is something that not many sites have.

I personally don't wanna see it and I don't think I'm gonna use this feature but it seems appropriate for a modern site like AFD lol
