Sometimes it takes seeing a band live to appreciate them. Happens with me all the time when I "discover" something or have a sort of "awakening" about a band I check out at a fest, or an opening act. However ... man, I hate every Tame Impala song I've ever listened to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones1225 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Kinda sucks they didn't add "new" songs or actual new songs into the set last night, but atleast they only played 4 covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Poison for many years in Dallas and every year it was the same set list and everyone had a blast!. I will see GNR doing the same set list until my dying day, because they rock it like no other band. I feel if you love a band, like I do with GNR, I will enjoy myself every time I see them live and for what I've seen at every GNR show, all the fans have an amazing time and no one bitches about the songs! Everyone screams and sings along. I understand how your feel, but honestly, I love every damn GNR song and never get tired of hearing them especially live!

I don't suppose that helps your argument haha, if we have to stoop as low as Kiss to find somebody worse? The Stones vary more than people give them credit for.

GnR Chris Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) I will always go see GNR as well. The set list elitists don't bother me. GNR can easily just do 90 minutes, then "vary" the set list every night since they're only playing half their current set list. Would people be happy then because the sets are not the same show to show? Edited October 5, 2019 by GnR Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Guns are now akin to Kiss but I give Kiss more a reprieve because at least Kiss came out from the very beginning, when they started in 1973, and said, ''yes, we're going to be utter shite and flog garbage to fans''. Guns put on this charade about ''being dangerous'' and ''having integrity''. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Direct those issues you have at the band. Their was no need, to refer to fans who go to shows, as being suckers. Your intensions are plan to see. You can walk it back all you want. Don't shit on the fans who choose to pay money to go to a show. You accuse the band of being of disrespectful towards you as a fan, and in return, you treat the fans who go to shows, in the exact same way.

adamsapple Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 The whole setlist issue...if that's the songs they want to play at least they could vary them a bit and not play the exact same order every night, also play around with arrangements - they have two very capable guitarists, one of the greatest singers ever and Dizzy can play some serious piano if given the chance - but they don't really do much with all that. If they don't bring out other deep cuts at least they could do acoustic or jam versions or piano versions of known classics, let people and even themselves re-discover their music that way. Just think of them starting a show with Axl coming out alone, sitting down at the piano maestro style and do "This I Love" solo, then halfway Slash comes out and plays the solo and then the whole thing merges into Breakdown with the whole band joining in and THEN we get say Jungle/Easy/Brownstone. Some people would scratch their heads for sure but it would bring some edge to the whole thing and make fans like me very happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don't think Axl doing his Liberace thing to start a show would go down well. Maybe something like that for an acoustic set or something might work.

Original Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Didn’t Axl’s band open with YCBM back at the O2 once? I think it was the Duff reunion show. That would kick ass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RONIN Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I'd like Slash to improvise a bit more - he did a killer little improv to the ending of Don't Cry in 2016....but that was for one show. The song has been played the exact same way since. They could stand to just mix it up a little on the songs at least to keep it interesting for themselves. Axl must be sick and tired of singing AFD songs...not to mention doing the same choreographed stage moves night after night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
