MisterNo Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) I love My Michelle, just wouldn't be good if Axl returns to some of his bad old habits. Like being late and fucking up live shows Maybe Slash didn't do a Better solo like Axl wanted it Edited August 4, 2016 by MisterNo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid setlist, great energy and DFW did a kickass job filling seats. The stadium is so big that the acoustics are far from ideal; but a minor issue given that 2016 has given us the big 3 back and I'm grateful to have been a part. My observations: -My Michelle was a real treat, band sounded very tight -The Seeker rocked (they're playing it every night, so no point in complaining about it being in the setlist) -Slash was absolutely on point on Estranged -Axl overall sounded awesome, I was frankly very impressed, youtube clips do not do him justice; particularly WTTJ -They killed Nightrain; the first couple notes of the song really sent a jolt of energy through the entire stadium. -Only complaint: have to admit I was really shitting myself when 9:25/9:35 passed and the GN'R logo hadn't started shooting; was definitely thinking the worst! Now to decide if I want to try finding tickets to Houston on Friday. Its a great time to be a GN'R fan. I have a sixth row SEC A4 ticket for Houston for sale at $300. PDF ticket. PM me if interested. I was going to go. However, I have family obligations this weekend. The Arlington show was stellar! I don't think I have the stamina to do it all over again in Houston. Aging sucks!!

I would not even begin to suggest that this tour is going sideways. Axl called an audible for whatever reason...no big deal. As for the late start times, I noticed it happens at shows where there is a larger crowd. Maybe they are just giving people more time to get inside and find their seats. As for a concert Blu-ray, they need to do a best of like Pearl Jam did with the Touring Band DVD. Show the Gunners playing My Michelle in Arlington, Coma in Orlando, the Adler appearance in Cincy, etc. I would buy that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for the Europe tour. Just hoping this reunion does not explode before that. Edited August 4, 2016 by MisterNo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would be a crime to include the Arlington performance of My Michelle instead of one of the adler ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just annoying they play yet another cover instead of all the cool deep tracks they played live back in the day, and a lot of them they even rehearsed for this tour but still didnt play (Perfect Crime, Pretty Tied up, list goes on..)

MisterNo Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 With GNR, there is no way there could be a show without covers, since UYI era they are doing covers on every show. I guess they love playing songs they like from other artists. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterNo Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) I know, but we will never all agree on the choice of covers. Or songs generally, for that matter Personally, I would love if they woud bring back Mother and Only Women Bleed intros. But I guess that will not happen. There is no point in complaining, Dexter is not active anymore. But even if he was, I doubt he would change the setlist for us.

Its really surprising that Slash's intros back then were totally structured and now as he is sober and clean he is improvising a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterNo Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) I agree... Sail Away/Bad Time for SCOM, Izzy's I Was Only Joking for Patience, later Gilby's Wild Horses. Godfather was better suited before Rocket Queen, IMO. It's Alright also fits before NR better then Layla.

Len Cnut Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Arlington, thats where all them soldiers are buried, a lot of good men in graves there. Good place to play Civil War, at the risk of coming across trivial in regards to the death of soldiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've all been a bit busier than usual as of late. I'll update this and the last couple of shows in a few mins. BTW, I just watched the Sorry solo and Slash kicked all sorts of ass on it.
