IncitingChaos Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Since we won't see new music I'm hoping for one of the following to be played:Pretty Tied UpYesterday'sProstitute (hopefully a revised live version unlike 09)IRS or RiadI think Axl could realistically pull one of these off.

Mendez Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I doubt he could pull of riad. The times he did it live don't sound too great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 Bad Obsession would be a pretty easy one. Fit it somewhere around Rocket Queen and I think it would flow nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 bring back Scraped and Sorry with a cover of Viva Las Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin' Cigarettes Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 They've got 9 shows to play in 18 days, I wouldn't suggest anyone get their hopes up for life changing moments.The only thing this screams to me is 'repetetive/safe' shows with slight variations to make them each a tad different. Maybe a new cover song. Those are easy and convenient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsession Of Vanity Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 bring back Scraped and Sorry with a cover of Viva Las Vegas.Fuck the cover, but I'd love to see Scraped/Sorry come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teroz Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I think that calling it "no trickery" is very appropriate. They literally have no tricks up their sleeves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a new cover song. Those are easy and convenient.This is what will happen, then a silent break, then another tour with exactly the same deal, then someone who isn't Axl will say they hope to work on a new record after the next tour.Kinda like those signs on the highway that say something is 'Just Around The Corner' and they keep saying it but it's actually 50 miles away lol.Axl has a problem if attendances dwindle as he hasn't implemented the GNR evolution he could've done after the CD momentum, if they get bored of seeing this band play the classic material, which is only going to repeat itself and the 2010 mindblowing form isn't coming back, the only tricks he has after falling into a numb ghost show of repetition and going thru the motions, are reunion or new music. And now new music won't be of interest to anyone except the hardcore loonies like us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Diet Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 bring back Scraped and Sorry with a cover of Viva Las Vegas.That would be cemented Axl's Elvis impersonatoresque position in todays music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now new music won't be of interest to anyone except the hardcore loonies like us.Apparently the last residency was a financial success, so I don't see any economic reasons why the band should stop touring anytime soon.As for there being no interest in a new GN'R record. Nah, a few million hardcore loonies bought CD. A new GN'R record will inevitably sell well. Perhaps not that much, but still among the top selling records of the year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandallFlagg Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'm not sure more than 10% of the fanbase have even heard of Atlas Shrugged or Checkmate but I agree if the promotion is done even a little it'll make money, just be lucky to get a third of Democracy numbers imo.People were starting to take new Guns seriously during the 09/10 touring cycle and there would've been a hell of a lot more interest if he was in shape and made a debut of something new in Rio.
