War2k14 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 For me it was a fun little diddy in 2006 but would be utterly pointless now. However I'd still take it over any cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl_morris Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Id prefer silkworms. Same voice but its a 'new' song at least. For me it was a fun little diddy in 2006 but would be utterly pointless now. However I'd still take it over any cover.Even nice boys? Thats a banging cover.

IRanOutOfIdeas Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 In a complete twist of fate, Axl revives Buick Mukane and does all of the vocals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericy210 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Ain't it Fun.I would travel the world for this. I'm 99% I know the answer, there is no live or demo version out there, right? I hope I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Ain't it Fun.I would travel the world for this. I'm 99% I know the answer, there is no live or demo version out there, right? I hope I'm wrong.No live version, unfortunately :/ Guess some of the lyrics would hit a bit too close to home now...Here's a tidbit I found while googling Ain't it Fun, when the punk covers were still being considered for what would have been a 3-disc version of UYI:"And we just added the 36th song," says Duff McKagan. "One with [ex-Hanoi Rock leader] Michael Monroe. It's called 'Ain't it Fun.' It's kind of a spooky song, 'cause it's like, 'Ain't it fun/You're gonna die young.' It's a Dead Boys song we redid with Axl and Mike singing." - June 1991, http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/articles/showarticle.php?articleid=5Don't think there's any demos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Do people here generally like Ain't It Fun? I think it sucks balls.It's my favourite song off TSI by far. A few of the other tracks I listen to once in a blue moon, but I love Ain't it Fun. Then again, I also love Sympathy for the Devil and that seems to get a lot of hate. I probably wouldn't have included either on Greatest Hits, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Dog Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I love DOTF and it wouldn't hurt my feelings to see it come back. But since they busted that out of nowhere on a previous tour, I would say bust out something else on this tour. DOTF was kind of a surprise to hear so I would rather have another surprise.

Johnny Drama Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Down on the Farm is probably my favourite cover. Maybe bin LALD for it. But then again is Axl gonna bring it like 1990 or even Spaghetti with his lackdaisical attitude nowadays? Highly doubt it.Meh.This.Never dug this tune and hope it doesn't come back.Please don't stoop to his level I have too much respect for you to allow that, boy.

there is no dana only zool Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I was at the Worcester, MA show in 06 when they played it. Was that the only city on the tour for that song? I was also at Worcester 2011 where they played Scraped. No vid footage tho Oh shit, AND, I was also at Detroit 02, which was the last time they played Riad (*bonus [?]: this was also the show where the band messed up Paradise City, Axl got pissed, and that was the end of the show [show still ruled so hard though]) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

classicguns4life Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Ain't It Fun is one of the worst songs on Spaghetti. And all the people saying they don't want to hear Down On The Farm, you'll be raving about how awesome it is if it was pulled out. I don't think it will, but I'm just saying you guys flip flop so easily on things once they happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trqster Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 This is classic Axl Rose! Bring it back now! And yes it should suit his current(?) vocal shape just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suckerpunched03 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I was drunk at the Minneapolis show in 2006 and they played down on the farm. In the first 15 seconds I thought it was a new song. My buddy was just like, it's down on a farm ya idiot. Anyhow who cares of they play that song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBA Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 For me it was a fun little diddy in 2006 but would be utterly pointless now. However I'd still take it over any cover.Technically, they are all covers. I'd rather that they cover Locomotive or Breakdown, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
