LovelessNL Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 There's like ten shows, so you can hardly call it a leg. There's a lot of travel involved, even when they stay on the same continent (Asia) the distances are considerable. And they go to 4 continents (!) (North America, South America, Asia and Africa). So by the time the 'leg' is halfway Axl's voice might be somewhat decent. Which will then be completely destroyed by travelling and jetlags. So I actually don't expect anything at all from this leg. Maybe they'll swap out Slither, Wichita Lineman or one of the other covers for something else (another cover), but that's about it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralphelmo Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I'd say no... but after touring with SMKC Slash may bring Fall To Pieces or Anastasia to the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamillos Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 All I would expect in November would be possibly a different cover song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChristmasFnatic Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Fuck Witchita. No one even sings it, even in Brasil. They got a covers album, why cant they pick from there? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlIsGod. Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I mean Europe brought slither and shadow so maybe something along those lines. As gibbo said maybe move to the city, and then another slash tune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't play it at the 3 shows I went to, but I have friends who were at shows where it was played. Most or all of them didn't care or even remember that it was played.

Gordon Comstock Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Most people didn't know Wichita Lineman at the shows I saw but IMO it was a highlight of the show. It's a nice little acoustic tune that Axl sounds good on, I'd take more songs like that any day of the week over songs like Black Hole Sun, I Feel Good or Sorry. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The band could do an extended bit at the end to give Axl a breather. Bring back the 976 horns too, lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanfzero Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) I got Wichita at download Madrid, it felt as an "Axl highlight song" along with This I Love (which was awful at that show). I liked it, Axl sang it fine and crowd seemed to like it 2 minutes ago, Nice Boy said: That would work, the vocals are mid range so would be fairly easy to sing.

ironmt Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 They better leave Wichita In the set. It is a good tune and one of the few songs that Axl sounds good on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d really love to see a new guns album in this line, Axl could bring some 70’s influences, acoustic and piano stuff and get Slash out of the confort zone. I think it’d be very well received. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was played half a step up it would be perfect. Such a great song. Do you think Guns would ever do a queen, elton or thin lizzy cover? I loved the No Quarter cover back in 2012.
