DieselDaisy Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 That is an Italian sunset they are playing against; the sun sets uniquely on the Italian peninsular, russet coloured and quite wonderful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They pale in comparison to the South American crowds which heavily feature Italian, Spanish & a Portuguese fans. In other words Latin fans are the roudiest. With Aussies & Asians not far behind. Great Britain, German & French crowds are certainly great and better than USA but they trail those aforementioned crowds. The Canadian crowd is better than the USA crowd. Pains me to admit it but USA has the worse crowds globally.? Although I agree, most US shows are not as rowdy nowadays as most other places in the world....there are some shows that get pretty wild...Philly shows are usually among those....and the quietest crowds in the world have to be the Japanese shows....you can hear a pin drop at some points during those shows.

But I'd still love to see a full concert all the way through on blu-ray. I vote for best of for the Blu Ray too.. They best performance of each song.. They would have to doctor up a complete show too much to make it worthy of releasing but they can find a great to really good version of almost every song if they go through them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a robot, i agree, there's always room for improvisation, but watching him play in the last tour, his playing is weird! i dont know if youre a musician, but it should be an easy thing to understand, and it goes beyond weird transitions and going out of scale, most of his chinese democracy songs solos do not fit the music at all! Not saying that there are not parts of the show where his playing is sublime, but the shows have (at least to me) been really affected by his autistic way of playing the guitar. I would say Slash's playing has taken a step back since the reunion and I am a devoted Slash fan.. He was playing out of is mind right before the reunion.. He didn't just suddenly regress. I just don't think the chemistry is that great between him, Frank and Fortus... I see and hear it at as clear as day at times. Sometimes they sound great, other times not so much. That said he is still a beast and pretty much still blowing people away every show with his over all performance.

DieselDaisy Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I just watched that Italian Jungle - I rarely watch these things. It was very good - even Rose was decent. The computer FX on the screen jarred however; I could imagine feeling a bit sick watching that too long! McKagan is sporting a bowler hat I see. I wonder if he is getting used to it for when he plays Londontown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it doesn't wake up Axl's 1990's ego! What is up with the cross on his arm? Did he get it all blacked out? I remember when they first launched there official site like 10 - 15 years ago there was a picture of Axl and it looked like he recently got it all blacked out. Then in later years I thought it looked normalish.. But that up close view definitely looks like he tried to cover it up. Does anyone know if that is the case?

Besides Steve Vai or someone making that statement, I highly doubt any musician that says "I can play you under the table" that mentality is exactly why that person probably is fairly average and has plateaued. As far as his Slash review. Well he's obviously just a huge Slash fan with rose tinted glasses, because there's no way a "brilliant guitar player/musician" wouldn't hear out of tune bends. I don't care about him changing his own solos etc. but the bending is really bad. I remember my old guitar tutor telling my very early on that good bending and vibrato was what would give me a voice on guitar, and it was the first thing he listened to, to see if the person playing was a great player or amateur. I love Slash and I think he can and does sometimes play great, but he can also be way off and I really don't understand why anyone would have a problem with that opinion. I love Kirk Hammett too, but i'll be the first person to say that in the last 15yrs his playing ability has diminished, doesn't mean I hate his playing or can't enjoy listening to him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be one of their most over played songs but I have enjoyed watching it show after show after show during this reunion.. You should check out some more.

That said he is still a beast and pretty much still blowing people away every show with his over all performance. i agree 100% with you, technically he has been improving since 2010, IMO the solo on "the unholy" from world on fire is one of his best in the last decade and maybe in the top 10 of all time...however since he joined GnR....he sounds uninspired to find a better word...specially on the ballads, he just turn his mojo off and starts noodling on the guitar....and i also think he must be bored of playing the same old songs everynight, with SMKC he used to rotate at least 4 songs per night, but well, he was calling the shots there...now he's just a majority partner here, and strongfully think that axl is the one with the final word.... obviously this is just pure speculation on my part...i love his playing, and i hope this band continues for a couple more years with a new album to come in the future... sorry for my english, is very rusty..

Have no Idea - But the most players that are so negattive toward someones playing like SLASH I usually dont worry about them having more chops than I do - U may be the best player in the world - I dont really Know ?
