  1. 1. Cleveland 2017 - No words for this show. 2. Pittsburgh 2016 - First time with OG members. Just epic 3. Hammerstein night 1 - I've never been closer to the band. Waited in line all day to be right up front. 4. Hammerstein night 2 5. Pittsburgh 2023 - This was an especially fun concert. First time Perhaps was played and I dont know that I've ever seen the band happier. 6. Cleveland 2007 - The night of Pigeons of Shit Metal lol 7. Cleveland 2002 - First time seeing them. I was 15 and just being in the same arena as Axl was something speical. 8. Youngstown 2011 - Day they got inducted into the HOF. Fuckin marathon set.
  2. 100% agree that Better was the choice. No idea why they abandoned that idea. It was clearly going to be. The leaked Harley ad from 06 seems to confirm that. The people I played the leak to immediately said this is a radio song. Maybe it was just my area that continued the long intro way after the fact.
  3. You know what I think hurt the first impressions? The extra long intro on CD. If they had kept the same intro as from the locker leaks I think it would have done worlds better. A minute long intro on the radio was rough for people.
  4. Watched it twice. I still love the song but am not a fan of the video. Its hard to watch. That said, I appreciate that they're still doing stuff. They are at least trying to be creative still. At this stage in their careers thats more than a lot of bands can say. You can all debate the level of "trying" theyre doing, but they are trying. After years of silence, I'm happier with them putting out the occasional thing I dont like than nothing at all.
  5. Some day I will be watching GNR for the very last time and I never know when that will be. So if they wanna play a 3.5hr set with boring ass Wichita Lineman then I’m here for it. I will never want less of them.
  6. Did I miss someone mention this? On the Youtube version theres a note under the song that says this: Music video by Guns N' Roses performing The General (Audio). © 2023 Guns N' Roses, under exclusive license to Geffen Records Then theres a link to Vevo. Wonder if a video is coming.
  7. GNRs IG just posted a pre save for The General with a clip of the song playing. December 8th.
  8. After having listened to both tracks extensively since they leaked and giving it time to marinate, I think Soul Monster/Monsters is in my top 3 GNR songs ever. The General is amazing, but Soul Monster is a masterpiece.
  9. Definitely could be cool. This video of him changing up his voice at the end of Estranged when he was sick sounded amazing. Had a lot of emotion in it. Just doing small things like that would save his voice and I think give a new depth to songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0q1o187Dw8A
  10. Seriously. I've watched just that part 20 times. So many years in the making and hearing him say it. Damn.
  11. I think the band knocked it out of the park this tour. Switched up the setlist, three new songs (one of which being the fucking General), and a music video. In GNR land you cant ask for much more. Great year for Guns. I hope they keep it going. Oh and fuck me, they sounded good on The General. Axl went for it.
  12. lol dude takes the time to record and upload and share to google drive so we could hear it. I say well done! Enjoy the show!
  13. I’d be interested to know what some people had hoped for with The General. It was never going to be some straight forward “normal” song. We all heard over the years tidbits that hinted at what it was. Were people hoping for something longer? More catchy? More orchestra? To me it’s exactly what I had hoped for. Something that pushes what GNR can do. It sounds nothing like anything they’ve done. I can’t decide which one I like more between that and Monsters but they’re both top tier guns songs to me.
  14. Nailed it. These are right up there with the best GNR song. Axl at his absolute best.
  15. It sucks that something happened along the way that made Axl feel apprehensive about releasing stuff. He’s really in a class of his own.
  16. I agree about Axl and the voice. However, it always seems like Axl is trying to take some unmakeable dream song he hears in his head and put it on a record. And that is when I love GNR the most. It’s like he tries to take all the things GNR has the capability of an etch it into a song. It’s something to be admired I think.
  17. Man these songs almost bring me to tears with how raw they are. This is Axl and GNR at their best to me. Epic songs that pierce through you.
  18. Holy shit I didn’t hear the first word as daddy. Puts that whole song in a different light. What a raw song. So damn good.
