Yeah I mean I’m all for long GNR shows, but if they could maybe play their some of their bigger singles and then swap out other random songs/hits it may be easier on Axl. Also they could do some killer lineup tours with other bands. By the looks of it though sounds like they’ll be on a break for a year or two. My guess is smkc will tour, and do another album. Especially with Creed going out on tour. Alter bridge will be done for quite a while I think. This opens up miles time

Yeah I think prior to these newer types of shows though they weren’t doing as many songs. I could be wrong.

Here’s what I’d like to see. Take their time off. Release some stuff. Get re-releases of spaghetti/lies on vinyl. Release shit loads of video footage in some form. When they reunite do new album or new and old songs if need be. Then tour. However, don’t do 28-32 song sets. There’s no need. Tour with other bands and play 15-18 songs. Fluctuate hits. Interweave songs they don’t play as much from all albums with new songs. Maybe not close with paradise city and not open with its so easy. Just switch it up. Either way not play as long of shows. I think it will really help Axl’s voice. Hell Metallica doesn’t even do that many songs.

I always wondered what was on “exhibit A” that wasn’t ever shown

Didn’t MsL list have it as Monstrosity? Wasn’t Leave Me Alone also on that list?

I hope whatever happens that at some point there is a large version of CD as an anniversary release with different versions released. I like hearing the differences in approach. It would also be cool if AXL wrote a small book story about that era in the band and his dealings with it all.

I’d be happy with those 3 songs and then all new from there. Really hope they compile this as an album while they’re off.

It would be hilarious if someone got irritated and dropped the demo version

Yeah the weird part of delta is it’s more deep than anything so it’s hard to tell. If you’re up high it really sucks IMO. I watched tickets for a few months and debated the show. Saw row 7 dead center behind pit go from 4-500 per ticket to 168 per ticket about 10 days ago and bought them on the spot. Pit tickets dropped by 50%. A close friend of mine is so pissed because he paid a big chunk of money for his pit tickets on pre-sale. Night train prices were still more expensive than what prices dropped to. I got some video. Wish I had recorded prostitute and sod. Worst song was absurd but I’ve heard it sound worse. Duff was pretending to do the high pitch screams but kept getting the timing wrong coming back to the mic which was honestly hilarious. I took some pictures, recorded a few guitar solos, but tried to be as present as possible. If Melissa had been there I may have been a bit more phone ready because I was hoping we may hear the general if she was. In a perfect world they would’ve played there was a time, better, and breakdown. But eh. Still was awesome.

Eh delta center here where the jazz play is about 20k capacity. So it’s not super small. However not all of the seats were full so maybe that’s why. As they continue to become more irrelevant as more bands always do year by year they could play here at Maverik center where our B league hockey team plays. It’s about a 10k venue. Lots of bands play there.

Yeah and I totally get dynamic mixing being in bands myself I’ve heard that when I played in larger venues over the years, this was almost too drastic of a volume push though at times.

Even if it’s a vinyl only version and someone rips from vinyl to digital transfer, that’s still better than a cell phone clip haha

I need to add something else here. I don’t know why the overall mix of the show was the way it was. Every time there was a guitar lead the guitars got cranked. I had extremely good seats. 7 rows behind the pit and dead center. The weird volume cranks for guitar leads were a bit annoying. I will say and I’ve praised him before. I’m a slash diehard since it’s why I started playing guitar as a 12 year old in 93/94, but Jesus Christ Fortus is so damn good.

I was there last night. In a couple songs there were actually 2 different dudes up there in Melissas spot, but all in all didn’t really impact much at all. I heard all samples. Absurd still had the backing tracks. Same with Prostitute. Axl sounded pretty great live. There were some really off parts where he sped the tempo up. November rain I think Dizzy butchered the opening backing lines pretty bad. You could see the looks on Axl’s face from that one. Most people probably didn’t notice as much. All in all it was a great show. I’ve cringed at videos and really worried about how he may sound. To me 31 songs 3+ hours of singing and they pretty much went nonstop I’ll say he’s doing pretty fucking great for a 61 almost 62 year old dude. I have a whole better appreciation for them. Band seemed to look like they’re having a good time. They definitely looked tired. I know this tour is winding down so I’m sure they’re eager to rest a bit

It’s taken me 32 years and I finally get to see them live tnite for the very first time.
