It isn't Axl's band, it never was. There was a time when he used to have a solo band that he unashamedly called "Guns N' Roses" but luckily that travesty ended a while ago. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giuls Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 About the setlist thing and this is the first and last time i'm talking about it: i know a few people that want to buy tickets when they come to Italy but if it wasn't for me playing a video on my phone the one time they asked me if it was true they sounded good as they heard they wouldn't know absolutely anything about the setlist, not that now they knew much, it was one video, so no, casual fans usually don't go to YT, for them the setlist is new and they want to hear the classics. They are the majority and it's normal they are going to try to make happy the majority of the people that buy tickets, come on, guys, i would never thought that Coma would be a stable song in the setlist, count your blessings! (thank you, Slash!) Really nice, Nightrain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KeyserSoze Posted July 13, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) i never understood why people try so hard to understand and debate the goings on of an entity we have no control over. Until GNR pulls a Metallica by Request, We have no control over the setlist. And i think Metallicas version was a fail by most hardcore Metallica fans standard. The band are going to play the songs they want to play. As fans, we need to accept that. We should live for the moments when it actually is changed and new/old songs are added/re-added. We also have no control of the members that are in or perform with GNR at any given time. We should live for the moments where the lineup changes (for better or for worse), and the special guests we get every once and awhile. And the main thing that we absolutely, positively, never have and ultimately never will have control over is new music from past or current members of GNR. We should live for the moments where new music is released from these artists, and be excited for these sorts of things. If any of these things piss you off night after night, or have just become unbearable, why are you still a fan of this band? In hopes that your own vision of what YOU think should happen, happens? Until those things happen, there is no need to bitch night after night after night hoping it one day becomes true. If it was meant to be, it will happen. We have no control. Im not trying to take anyones right to have an opinion away, it just makes me sad that most of us don't get along because we all have a personal vision of what we want GNR to be, and because we consider ourselves hardcore devoted fans, we think we know it all! This wasn't meant to be a direct shot at anyone in particular, i just think the quicker we realize that we have absolutely no control of the goings on of GNR, the happier some of us may be. Ive never been one to get into the politics of GNR. I love the music first and foremost. Life is short. One day all of this isn't going to be here anymore. With that being the case, we should be happy with what we receive, and until the things we want actually pan out, enjoy the ride. We all love GNR for one reason or another. Don't make it the reason we all hate each other too. As for those who attack each other on this board for having different opinions, i leave you with a quote from the great Harold And Kumar Go To White Castle, which should go for the world of GNR basically: innnnn other news, Slash played a new guitar tonight! Looks to be a B.C. Rich Bich. Edited July 13, 2016 by KeyserSoze 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzy? any new songs in the set list? No Adler. No Izzy. tHey still played My Michelle without Adler, but no Out Ta Get Me. Raw Power instead of Attitude.

(see Chinese Democracy sales) Izzy is more guns and roses then axl and slash put together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope someone makes a thread comparing how Adler plays it ta get me vs Frank because I really want to see someone try to defend Frank as if he's the best this band has ever had.. Because that proves it. Frank is the worst drummer GNR has ever had. yeah man, it was horrific... I was starting to give him a pass too. But the contrast between him and Adler on that song is just off the charts.. Him and anyone for that matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom-Ass Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) Well I wasn't there and only saw a few things but the show seemed to be a bit downgrade from what I saw anyway... Axl didn't sound great on the few songs I saw.. He never sounds great the whole show anyway so maybe I just tuned in for the wrong songs. They started earlier to account for the curfew which was cool but not early enough where they didn't have to cut a song. I am hoping to god I get to see Out Ta Get Me in Foxboro. They just kick so much ass at it. If they have to cut a song why not a CD the song for once? I don't mind CD but can't stand the other two. I tried watching them last night again and they are terrible. Better sounds like a mash up of 5 different bad songs. TIL is just boring.. The chorus is catchy but repetitive but the rest of the song is miserable and Axl sounds weird. I won't lie, I did enjoy the Slash solo.. I think towards the end of the song? Kind of a bummer knowing Steven won't be part of the tour permanently if at all any more. My Michelle was one of the few songs I watched and it was god awful.. Frank single handedly destroyed the song. His drums were all over the place and so damn fast.. Axl couldn't even keep up.. I am sure it was still a good show over all and I didn't tune in to most of it but those things jumped out at me.

Good for you, but you listened to a periscoped version. As I said, I'll wait on a better quality video before making any final conclusions.

hally187 Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Out of interest I tried listening to Steven vs Frank vs album on My Michelle... I do think the song as a whole sounds better with Steven, but their versions went for the exact same amount of time... both are way faster than the album version. My opinion/theory - Frank throws in way too many fills and makes everything sound muddy/faster tempo, whereas Steven's style is more 'feel' and complimentary to the rest of the band. Would love to see Steven on Rocket Queen & Paradise City, but very happy for all of them (and us) that he could be involved at all! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
