Does Tommy Stinson seem to be enjoying himself on this tour? I hope he is still having fun.

*On a side note, we decided to move this thread to the main section for a day (rather than the concert section) because some people were starting threads asking where the reviews were. So, we'll keep it here for a day before moving it back to the concert section.

i forgot to mention that axl made a funny joke....he said something like "i heard sebastian before talking about youtube and myspace...but i just wanna stick my tube in her space"


hahaha

The crowd was excellent and very into it

They went to Finck's solo WAY too early - absolutely stopped the show

Dizzy is a pleasure to watch perform live

Thal's Don't Cry is very cool - but he plays way too long before getting into it

All of the Appetite songs received Thunderous applause

The new songs are getting much more response from the crowd

I thought IRS sounded incredible

Better was a little hard to hear

The solos are killing these shows - if you're gonna give 3 different guitar players their own spots, make it shorter

The Aguilera song was very cool, untill people actually started singing it in the crowd! I was like, huh?

Axl Rose is a dynamite performer -

The Fireworks & Explosions are too much - but some of the lights were excellent

Sorry for the mixed review - there was a lot of great shit and some downers - Overall it was solid

IRS blew me away, by the way - The guitars were clear and powerful

I like these posts being here for a day or two, they are relevant. I appreciate all the constructive criticism on the show. I actually expected more bashing. But like I have said before, if you see em live, hard to hammer em too hard whether you liked the set list or not.
As far as the solos go, I would rather have a few "slow spots" during the show, so Axl can rest and come out strong on every song than no solos, and Axl getting tired by the 6th song. Grats on being at the show guys, Sounds very similar to the SF show I saw with sound problems. The crowd is just loud. Hope they figure it out by Dec.15th

While some people on this board will say last night's show was the best show of their lives, the majority of MSG last night was completely out of it after 5 songs...I kept wondering why was it in 2002 the entire garden rocked so much harder than it did in 2006. The loss of Buckethead and the failure to slot in guitarists that people actually care about is crippling Guns N Roses.

I think it's safe to say that Axl's re-invention of Guns N Roses will never work. Album or no album, there's just no real chemistry up on stage and DON'T TELL ME THERE IS! Just go watch the old Gunners on youtube and then tell me this band has similar chemistry. Axl keeps trying to get us to love these new musicians, which is why he gives them each way-too-long solo oportunities. Funny, these new guys could solo for hours and they never come close to matching a solo by Bucket or Slash.

Also, a filled MSG and AXL never ONCE mentioned the album...he never talked about the new songs, he didn't sing any news songs...in fact, the setlist wasn't bad, but the order of the songs was just off...once the crowd was out of it, they never returned.

I don't know, I wouldn't spend any more money seeing these guys live, in fact, I really don't want to see them live again. I'll buy Chinese D if it ever comes out, enjoy it, and pray he will reconcile with Slash and return GNR to it's former glory.

Axl if you can here me, GET SLASH BACK NOW! !!!

[Jackamo!]

that's nice.

I regret buying tickets for the Toronto show. This tour is the biggest insult to fans.

This setlist is so repetitive, we're actually looking forward to terrible GN'R tracks like Down The Farm, just because it's a change.

how many bands actually change their setlist drastically from show to show...not many! i've been to well over 400 shows in my life and when i have seen a band on multiple stops on a tour it has been pretty much the exact same setlist with maybe one or two different songs, if any at all. douche...

[Frozen Inferno]

u cant compare the new band with the old, the new band hasnt released an album, thats why finck and the rest dont shine.

Good to hear Kaneda Now, to your next step - leave this forum and never post again

Out of curiosity, what made the 2002 show better than this show ? Buckethead's playing lifted the whole show from failure to success for you ?
