I saw that too when I checked out the setlist. I think somebody just got confused because the very last descending arpeggio Slash plays in Patience is indeed quite similar to the start of Fall To Pieces.

Favourite Post-Reunion GN'R Single Poll
James Bond replied to axlsalinger's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
In all honesty - Absurd. I think the overall hilarity of that being the first "new" song to come out Slash and Duff being back really just stood out to me at the time. I find it on my rotation far more than Hard Skool which was only ever just an "okay" song for me. Perhaps is kind of the same. Just "okay" to me, although objectively probably the best written of the three. -

In the spirit of Absurd, they've gone for a stylized approach. -

Poor Frank. Still replaced by the replacement he replaced. -
Instead of playing Perhaps tonight they're going to play Wichita Lineman twice, and then say they've recorded a cover of it under the title The General for exclusive vinyl release this fall.

I don't hear Sweet Home at all. It's not even the same chord progression. -
I couldn't agree more. It's hard not be be slightly underwhelmed by songs I've heard already. Not that that's the fault of the band - obviously I've chosen to listen to the leaks all along. Nevertheless, this will be a chance to experience the song unheard for the first time and I plan on taking it.

Perhaps – Official Music VIDEO
James Bond replied to jamillos's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
Amazing how excited we all are about a music video for a song that was mostly recorded like 20 years ago. See Fernando? I know we're a miserable lot most of the time but we ain't too hard to please.- 106 replies

Perhaps – Official Music VIDEO
James Bond replied to jamillos's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
I mistakenly thought that this was just going to be another afterthought of a lyric video. Wow. I wasn't expecting that. Easily the best video they've put together since the Use Your Illusion days. In fact, it would fit nicely on Welcome to the Videos. I'm impressed. -

Listened to it on Spotify on my drive to work. It's okay. I think in terms of production it probably sounds the best of the three tracks we've gotten so far. At least that's how I felt on my first listen. I'll give it a few more listens, but I never loved the old leak anyways. Great that it's finally out though. -
There's still a chance they'll drop the "VIP" stuff from the pit closer to the day, although I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up still being a "platinum ticket" or whatever. I had close seats behind the pit in 2016 and did the pit itself in 2017. That's plenty enough for me. I'm happy to settle for further back this time.

Seems he's got a couple California shows this Fall so here's hoping he tours next year. He also listed some more guitars a couple days ago. Mostly lower end stuff but all used on the Pikes.

08/08/23 - Montreal, CAN - Parc Jean Drapeau
James Bond replied to downzy's topic in 2023 Tour Dates
I feel like, had I gone as intended, I would have ended up feeling the same way as you so maybe I'm not as sorry I missed it as I thought I would be. -
It's better than $250 and up. I'm waiting until they're closer to the $100 mark which seems inevitable with the dreadful sales and then I'll buy.

2023 WORLD TOUR
James Bond replied to Stay.Of.Execution's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
Toronto show is finally seeing some visible price drops. Lower bowl can now be had for $160-$180 for the most part, although I'm continuing to wait for now. It's not like there is any shortage of tickets. -
Tickets are starting to see some decent drops if anybody is on the fence - lowers are now $160 to $180 for the most part. We're getting there.

Holy shit. On one hand, it's nice to hear from him in that regard but obviously terrible news about the stroke. All the same, he is nothing short of a badass. Long live Nicko I say. He's doing just fine all things considered, and each consecutive show has just gotten better (although I'm trying not to listen to too much so I'm somewhat spoiler free).

He's looking like EVH circa 2012 in that picture. Danny Elfman is a terrific gig for a player like Robin. Love it.

Would legitimately be hilarious if there were a couple songs featuring Axl and Duff getting released under the "Slash & Friends" banner instead of Guns N' Roses. Jokes aside, this is probably the most I've looked forward to a Slash release since World On Fire. I'm well over Myles. I'm glad he's mixing it up.
