i can't find Godspeed - WCBaer anywhere.. interested in selling me one??
no one can find it because it's not been released yet. Think Chinese Democracy.
worse than Chinese Democracy because what it is is going to be amazing. chinese democracy not, so much, but t least it's available to actaully see if it is shit.
still bummed about this.
Where are you WCB? It's like you've dropped off he face of the planet since HHA.
I hope so but, I dunno. Isn't the page count down to like only 185 pages now or something?
really!?
i thought i read somewhere that the page count was getting close to 1000 pages. maybe i'm making shit up.
one of us is right and one of us is wrong. I hope it's me.
I think one of the times it was listed for pre-order on Amazon it listed that as a page count. Thinking about it more, it might have been something like 247 pages...
all i remember was thinking this is way, WAY to low a number of pages for so big of an idea.
and i think what i heard was maybe somethign frm WCB himself. maybe an interview. maybe something on the velvet. he said something about the page count is rising and rising. and that by the time he's finished it will probably be around 1000. maybe i'm way off.
It's still listed on Amazon as having been published in 2007 at 250 pages. Why would a book that's never been published be listed as out of print on Amazon for three years? No wonder people are confused and desperate to get their hands on it.
Damn. I shoulda come in here and with my first post said that I had a copy and then just taken a paper grocery bag and drew a homemade dustjacket with Godspeed on the front and then put it over and old copy of Kiss me Judas or something and then sold it for a mint!
ah well. esprit d'escalier huh?
That's ok. I've already named my first novel Godspeed. mwahahaha. My pseudonym: WC Beer.
Didn't someone release a Chinese Democracy before Axl did? Can't copyright a title anyway. Maybe in a rare instance of absolute specificity, but certainly not Godspeed.
We've been speculating about it for five or six years, so who knows how many evolutions it's gone through in length, tone, and content. Well, okay, we're reasonably certain what the tone's gonna be like...
MacAdam/Cage is beginning to show some signs of life again, so maybe we'll hear something soonishly. I dunno if Chris's book is still under contract with them or if he's shopping it elsewhere now, or what.
We've been speculating about it for five or six years,
Wow! It hasn't been that long has it? Didn't HHA come out in 06? I thought it did the year after Haunted. I may be getting Old-Fogey Syndrome...

2004!
oh geez!
I think I'm just gonna go sit in the corner, looking out the window and wait for the nurse to bring me my tapioca pudding whilst I ponder the olden days...
haha back in oh seven, there were a few retailers "selling" used editions. no lie. so i made a "review" of the book stating that it wasnt yet released, that no one should order a used copy and get excited. and i gave it five stars because why not.. the review stuck around for a solid year haha

“...There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one's head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people's pain. You ought to have some apprehension that the man you see before you was once even younger than you are now and arrived at his present wretchedness by imperceptible degrees.”
-James Baldwin
i also remember reading it will be really very short when i was a Baer fanatic
