The Perception of Failure - Guns N' Roses & Chinese Democracy & Best BuySteph Miller
A lot of Monday morning quarterbacking post release but this exclusive still was the retailer coup in entertainment that happened last century.
The ROI was negligible. The artist wouldn’t promote the work, a move that detractors used to pan the content into an early grave. The name created low-level negative international commentary. The fan base had a big delta between who loved it and who didn’t and were being squeezed by the Great Recession.
Sum total by those viewing from their particular perch was that it was an epic fail.
Musical taste aside, given all the intangibles, only Best Buy could make this release happen. Anyone sitting on our branch knew what a win it really was.
It was a competitive proving ground. The team built a machine of human capital that quickly spat out anyone without a sense of humor or work ethic.
It was no longer who was a vendor rep and who was a merchant and who was marketing and who was supply chain and who were Events and who was in the store making “the last ten feet*” work to deliver the experience for the customer.
Silos were evacuated and a meet-up was designated.
If a person is lucky. I mean really worked hard to play the odds to up their chance to be at the right place at the right time, they land a project of a lifetime. Very few people...for better or worse...can say they were a part of this.

In 2003, the band signed a deal with Reprise Records.
Following a tour with Avenged Sevenfold, the band
began work on their second album, entitled Three
Cheers for Sweet Revenge. Released in 2004, the
album went platinum within a year. The band released
three singles from the album: "I'm Not Okay (I
Promise)", "Helena" and "The Ghost of You". It was
during this time that the band replaced Matt Pelissier
with Bob Bryar, after they came back from Japan in July
2004.
At the start of 2005, the band toured on the first ever
Taste of Chaos tour, and was also the opening act for
Green Day on the American Idiot tour. During the
summer, they co-headlined the Warped Tour 2005 with
Fall Out Boy. Later that year, My Chemical Romance co-
headlined and headlined their tour with Alkaline Trio and

5. The kooks
Official
website
The Kooks formed at the Brighton Institute of Modern
Music, where they were all students. Lead singer and
rhythm guitarist Luke Pritchard, who was born in the
Yorkshire seaside town of Saltburn, got bassist Max
Rafferty involved in a college project, which formed the
base of the band. After getting lead guitarist Hugh Harris
and drummer Paul Garred involved, they took their name
from the song "Kooks" on the 1971 David Bowie album
Hunky Dory.[1] When Virgin tried to trademark the
name, they found that in the late/mid 1990s a Swedish
band by the same name released an album in Sweden
called "Too Much is Not Enough".[2]
