AxlRoseCDII Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I’m part of the 5 people who liked BHS. The problem with the live version was they were inconsistent. Sometimes it sounded really solid, and sometimes it just was disastrous. And yeah, probably could’ve been pulled after 2018 or sooner.

Gordon Comstock Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I Feel Good and Wichita Lineman were both highlights of the show when I saw them in 2017. Top 5 songs of the night were probably Nightrain, Catcher, Wichita Lineman, I Feel Good, and My Michelle. I never got the hate for Wichita Lineman... the band has almost always sounded good on stripped down acoustic songs, and it's in Axl's natural range and he still sounds really good on it. It made me wish they'd bring back the acoustic sets in the middle of the shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank sounded great, loved hearing Fortus with his short solo, and Slash killed the ending/breakdown. I'd love to hear more songs in Axls natural range like that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
