  1. It was 28€+17€ shipping to Prague for a signed vinyl when I got it 30 minutes ago (which seems to be gone now when I checked again)
  2. I just read through 5-6 pages about Slash's playing and all I can add to that is that whenever I saw Slash (reunion GnR twice, Slash and Myles multiple times, Velvet Revolver once at a festival as well) everyone I talked to after highlighted that his playing was easily the highlight
  3. If anything Chaney is probably overqualified for the AC/DC bass. He'll be great for sure
  4. I always felt Flea and John associated music in general with their feelings during recording/listening to it. It seems as if they felt great while writing songs or just listening to them they think very highly of it regardless of quality. I'm basing on a few podcasts they did and Flea's book mainly I feel like if Flea listened to OHM and it wasn't by RHCP, he would think it's great
  5. Regarding their 1998-2004 studio work. There are a lot of demos out there for unreleased songs. It's not all great but it's fascinating to listen to to see the evolution of songs, etc. Also sometimes Anthony struggled so much that it just becomes funny lol 1998 demo CD playlist including several songs of Californication that sound different than released versions, then a few demos of songs called Tellin' A Lie, Mommasan, Andaman & Nicobar, Sugar Sugar, Trouble In The Pub, Boatman, Plate of Brown https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH8ngoq9NHlk1HWEfMwQnakuY6Z8-8f-L 2001 demo CD playlist from BTW sessions that includes a few unreleased song demos like Fall Water, Goldmine, Rock & Roll, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCUF07vBEvg&list=PLH8ngoq9NHlmPWD9eduVDavxGmWexqYTO&ab_channel=ManuelEtchart From 2003 there are demos as well including 2 unreleased songs like Starlight and 50fifty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxscvwCVEwQ&ab_channel=jhap1982 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmZOwDvEjDQ&ab_channel=RHCPLive The last song they did with Dave Navarro in 1997/98 before John's return: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS9NTmjnpDo&ab_channel=RHCPmaniaTV
  6. Foo Fighters into Royal Blood into Arctic Monkeys is a great run. Listening the whole day like a radio since it started
  7. What your sister says is what literally everyone I talked to at Graspop said as well and that's around 10/15 people (usually camp neighbours). Some though he'd be worse than he was as well but nobody expected the 90s. Some people were annoyed that a band with a singer that can't do it like in his prime is headlining the festival, but that's a different issue
  8. An update here. I watched Motley Crue and Def Leppard last night at the festival to close it out and Motley Crue was just embarrassing, it's like watching Steel Panther but it's not ironic Def Leppard was very good, too bad I don't like their music. It's a bit too bland, objectively speaking for all of those 3 (GnR, Motley Crue, Def Leppard) they were definitely the best, they played amazingly, can still sing and the show around it had just enough of the screens/effects etc.
  9. Didn't have the energy to type anything last night as got to the tent and just passed out lol I thought the show is much better than jn 2017 when I saw them. I also thought that Axl's voice is worse now, he ruined several songs and they also turned him down in the mix a few times as well. He looks better, runs more and is in better spirits than before. He wasn't running out of breath or anything, he just didn't sound good. On the other hand, setlist was amazing, felt less bloated even with all the covers. Slash was carrying the show, similar to the last time.Absurd got a great reaction from the crowd and you could see nobody knew it. Highlights for me were Double Talkin' Jive, Pretty Tied Up, Locomotive, Civil War, Rocket Queen... Among my new friends and neighbors in camp, they thought the show was good and everyone expected Axl to sound even worse - I'm assuming due to reputation so they were surprised that he can still sing ~50% of the songs
  10. I'm there as well. In front of the right screen on the side A great day at the festival so far. Watched End, Haken, Spirit Box, Marduk, Tom Morello, Papa Roach, Arch Enemy, Alter Bridge, and Ghost. All over the place age and genre wise
  11. Watching the live stream from Rock am Ring, it's about to end probably it's on Best Of You currently... and I have to say the band didn't sound this good in ages. Also, the show is much tighter than before, probably because a lot of time before was spent on Dave and Taylor making jokes and talking and now it's just Dave talking sometimes. What's missing is Taylor's charisma and his presence behind the kit, Josh Freese kinda has none even tho they sound better (I think)
  12. Yeah, I buy tickets either immediately after they go on sale or 3 days before the show. I can imagine there are a ton of people doing that
  13. Don't know if we need a new topic or anything but I just saw the setlist for the new tour and it's fucking amazing. Their best in some time I think https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/iron-maiden/2023/arena-stozice-ljubljana-slovenia-33b97885.html MOD EDIT: Starting a new thread for a new tour, and I've moved all of the posts pertaining to the new tour into this new thread. I'll update below with tour info and dates: Iron Maiden will be bringing a new tour to Europe in the Summer of 2023 including arena shows in the UK & Ireland. The Future Past Tour will feature previously unperformed songs from the band’s most recent studio album, Senjutsu along with a focus on 1986’s iconic Somewhere In Time record, plus other classic cuts. Steve Harris says, “Following the release of our latest album, Senjutsu, we updated the current Legacy of the Beast Tour a little by opening the show with the first 3 songs from it, with the Japanese Palace stage set. As it doesn’t make a lot of sense to repeat this for a Senjutsu album tour, we thought about other options and we’ve decided to revisit Somewhere In Time as that tour didn’t feature in the various retrospective history tours we’ve played over the years. They were based on our 80’s concert videos and sadly we did not film that tour (blame the manager!!). We have had lots of requests from fans over the years for many tracks on it so we are now going to play them, plus of course a few others we know you will like! It will also be particularly satisfying to finally get to play some of the more epic tracks on Senjutsu, it's been a long wait! 2023 is going to be an exciting time and we’re really looking forward to seeing everyone again in the UK, Ireland and around Europe”. Manager, Rod Smallwood adds, “This combination of the two albums we feel is very exciting. We know fans want to hear those epic cuts on Senjutsu for the first time live and we think that by combining it with an iconic album like Somewhere In Time it will make for another really special tour for fans old and new! Of course, for a new album tour in Europe and the UK we will go back largely to the relative intimacy of arenas and we know fans will be very happy about that too!” The Future Past Tour 2023 dates: May 28 - Arena Stozice, Ljubljana, Slovenia 30 - O2 Arena, Prague, Czechia 31 - O2 Arena, Prague, Czechia June 3 - Nokia Arena, Tampere, Finland 4 - Nokia Arena, Tampere, Finland 7 - Keongen, Bergen, Norway 9 - Sweden Rock Festival, Solvesborg, Sweden 11 - Quarterback Immobilien Arena, Leipzig, Germany 13 - Tauron Arena, Krakow, Poland 14 - Tauron Arena, Krakow, Poland 17 - Hellfest, Clisson, France 19 - Hallenstadion, Zurich, Switzerland 21 - Zag Arena, Hannover, Germany 24 - 3Arena, Dublin, Ireland 26 - Ovo Hydro, Glasgow, Scotland 28 - First Direct Arena, Leeds, England 30 - AO Arena, Manchester, England July 3 - Motorpoint Arena, Nottingham, England 4 - Utilita Arena, Birmingham, England 7 - O2 Arena, London, England 8 - O2 Arena, London, England 11 - Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam, Netherlands 13 - Sportpaleis, Antwerp, Belgium 15 - Return Of The Gods Festival, Milan, Italy 18 - Palau Sant Jordi, Barcelona, Spain 20 - Estadio Enrique Roca, Murcia, Spain 22 - Bizkaia Arena Bec, Bilbao, Spain 25 - Westfalenhalle, Dortmund, Germany 26 - Westfalenhalle, Dortmund, Germany 29 - Festhalle, Frankfurt, Germany 31 - Olympiahalle, Munich, Germany August 1 - Olympiahalle, Munich, Germany 4 - Wacken Open Air, Wacken, Germany September 28 - Scotiabank Saddledome, Calgary, AB 30 - Rogers Place, Edmonton, AB October 2 - Rogers Arena, Vancouver, BC 6 - Power Trip Festival, Indio, CA The Future Past 2024 Tour Dates: September 1 - RAC Arena, Perth, Australia 4 - Adelaide Entertainment Centre, Adelaide, Australia 6 - Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne, Australia 7 - Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne, Australia 10 - Brisbane Entertainment Centre, Brisbane, Australia 12 - Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney, Australia 13 - Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney, Australia 16 - Spark Arena, Auckland, New Zealand 22 - Sky Hall Toyota, Aichi, Japan 24 - Osaka-Jo Hall, Osaka, Japan 26 - Tokyo Garden Theater, Tokyo, Japan 28 - PIA Arena MM, Kanagawa, Japan 29 - PIA Arena MM, Kanagawa, Japan October 4 - North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre, San Diego, CA 5 - Michelob ULTRA Arena, Las Vegas, NV 8 - Kia Forum, Los Angeles, CA 12 - Aftershock Festival, Sacramento, CA 14 - MODA Center, Portland, OR 16 - Tacoma Dome, Tacoma, WA 18 - Delta Center, Salt Lake City, UT 19 - Ball Arena, Denver, CO 22 - Xcel Energy Center, St. Paul, MN 24 - Allstate Arena, Rosemont, IL 26 - Scotiabank Arena, Toronto, ON 27 - Centre Videotron, Quebec, QC 30 - Centre Bell, Montreal, QC November 1 - Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, PA 2 - Barclays Center, Brooklyn, NY 6 - DCU Center, Worcester, MA 8 - PPG Paints Arena, Pittsburgh, PA 9 - Prudential Center, Newark, NJ 12 - CFG Bank Arena, Baltimore, MD 13 - Spectrum Center, Charlotte, NC 16 - Dickies Arena, Fort Worth, TX 17 - Frost Bank Center, San Antonio, TX 20 - Foro Sol, Mexico City, Mexico 24 - Estadio El Campín, Bogota, Colombia 27 - Estadio Nacional, Santiago, Chile 28 - Estadio Nacional, Santiago, Chile December 6 - Allianz Parque, São Paulo, Brazil 7 - Allianz Parque, São Paulo, Brazil
  14. It's a good start. Good setlist and Gilmour was amazing that show If you like it then I'd just go in order of the 4 big albums from "The Dark Side of the Moon" to "The Wall"
