People please! Please forget about everything you loved that's gone now! Forget about the Beatles, forget about Jimi Hendrix. Forget about all the classics released by the Stones and by Led Zeppelin. You love Scarface or the Godfather? Rocky, Rambo, Die Hard? Maybe Indiana Jones? Forget it! They're more than 35 years old. Don't stuck in the past! Watch Fast and Furious instead and the 19th Pirates Of The Caribbean. Your Kids aren't young anymore? They passed their 35th Birthday? Forget them! They're worthless and useless now! Don't stuck in the past! Mate, just wait for9 points

Honestly probably the only thing that'll get me to buy a ticket to a future show.8 points

ISE - Really good, No Mickey WTTJ - Pretty good, no Mickey SORRY- I'm not so familiar with this song, a bit nasal in places but passable RQ - Awful, way too Mickey. It gets a bit better near the end UTLH - He sings it too high Nightrain - My favourite track, instrumentally great, let down by the vocals. Nice shot of Fortus's left tit.8 points

I thought that was great, with Sorry being the pick of the bunch for me. Great quality video, sound and vision wise and a good performance. Main thoughts - rock music should only EVER be played in the dark. The difference between this and the other more recent Selects is black and white. The tour should have stopped in 2018, and left everyone hungry for more. And I include the band members in that- they look so much more into it here. All in all- enjoyed the hell out of it. Reminded me why they're my favourite band.7 points

I have to say, I actually gave this one a second watch. The only other one to get that distinction from me was the Mexico/Houston one. I think most would agree that this is far from the best of the 2016 shows, but ultimately it proves that even a weaker 2016 show is lightyears ahead of what was to follow. Seriously, just give us a bunch of 2016 material and we'll probably shut up for a while!6 points

I would have to disagree. Axl's voice and his singing, especially in his prime, was fabulous. I am not just talking about his extreme range and ability to sing in different voices which made it a very versatile tool for different kinds of music, but especially his ability to add emotions to his singing which so nicely complemented Slash. You felt Axl meant every fucking word he sang. Or at least I did. I would also say he is a talented song writer, with songs like Estranged and November Rain. Lastly, I think he was a unusually gifted frontman, at least back in the 80s and 90s. A lot of this ca6 points

By far, the most realistic modern Axl impersonation. Sounds like leaked in-ear audio from 2018+5 points
-
That Axl is very talented has been attested by almost everyone who has ever worked him (including people who haven't had any reason, motive or need to kiss his ass). Apparently it's a flawed talent, as it seems that he has a big difficulty in finishing what he starts, and an even bigger difficulty in releasing it, which has been often attributed to perfectionism. I think it's mostly insecurity - and that's where "perfectionism" stems from - which became bigger and bigger over the years (especially after he was on his own) and he doesn't seem to have recovered from it even with the reunion5 points

Listen I know this thread has a lot of people bagging axl for a lot of things, but this post is one of the most bizarre I’ve read! Axl isn’t talented??? 🤣 you can accuse axl of a lot of things and rightly so. But to say he’s not talented? mate the whole point of this thread is people blowing up because they want to see more material!!! Why??? Because he’s immensely talented. 🤷♂️5 points

Seriously. I remember the only time engaging in any type of "exclusive" stuff was when I was 15 (literally half my life ago at this point) and getting the IEM from the Download festival in 2006 in a trade. You know what I did immediately after I got it? I leaked it. I got some written tongue lashings from people behind the scenes after that. I told them to fuck off then and still don't regret it. There was, and likely still is, a ton of ego with the traders in this community. The band certainly doesn't help it the way they act either.4 points

How pathetic is it to talk about something you know nobody has (and probably doesn't exist) and knowing you won't share it. Get a life4 points

Apologies for the service interruption. Apparently this forum was confused with another that was in violation of its hosting obligations.4 points

It also goes to show how important it is for musicians to be smart with their money, which most are not. The nature of feast or famine has always been the case with musicians, I know Duff has discussed it a lot.4 points

You also need to check out the other videos on that channel. The Shotgun Blues one is also awesome, great attention to detail with Axl coming in early after the solo4 points

This is ever slightly true in parts (complete BS for the rest though), Axl has always liked to collaborate and have writers around him (nothing wrong with this). Your suggestion that we think he's a prolific talent?? No idea how you arrived at that🤣 Nobody argues this, he is clearly not prolific. Is he a musical genius? what's the criteria Euchre? I'd say writing a song that 30yrs later people still scream out loud, or cry when they hear it live suggests he might just be a musical genius. His small output means nothing against his ability as a songwriter. You're clearly not a CD fa4 points

Being a singer, I love it when Axl sings those low parts like in ISE. It's powerful and effortless for him because it's his natural range.4 points

I mean, for everything Axl is and isn't, the man definitely has a sense of humour!4 points

Fun fact: Axl busted out the yellow jacket again that night! It is actually the only time he wore it after 2011 I know about. I remember laughing out loud when he put it on mid-song during Sweet Child.4 points

Thanks. The video is cool and all, but I'm not gonna praise "management" for throwing us half of a cold pizza instead of giving us something real. Just release a goddamn full show. How hard can it be? If anything, this videos proves how lazy fernandont is. Coming up with a few more songs within months. Wow. What have you been doing the rest of the year?4 points

The Brazil shows from 2016 were on NA levels. Really good stuff. Axl was ill (yeah, for real ) for the first ones (Argentina, Peru and Chile) but he recovered and was firing on all cylinders for the Brazil dates. Really, really looking forward to this one!4 points

Had my first vaccine this week. Felt really crappy for about 24hrs (flu symptoms, temperature spike), not everyone gets side effects but quite a lot do. Worth bearing that in mind when booking, don't have it a day before you have something important to do. Or if you have young kids to look after don't vaccinate both parents at the same time, space it by at least a week.3 points

I haven't watched a selects for sometime, i'm gonna give it a try because of you lot praising it3 points

An obvious off-night for Axl, but overall good, I mean sort of 2016 good. Or as someone said, the 2017 is already there. Nightrain has been generally ruined with the over-accelerated tempo. Sorry has nothing to offer if not done with rasp, but Slash is always there to save the show… Otherwise, I don’t really know what to say. Thanks for another bit after 5 years, instead of a DVD that we should have gotten years ago? I’m definitely grateful for a 2016 footage, but overall, it still sucks. The quality, the mix, everything. However, this has been the GN’R standard for years, so I guess I sh3 points

This select was actually shareable!!! We could actually piece together something cool now.. It's So Easy, Jungle, Rocket Queen, Used To Love Her Nightrain from this show... Throw in Witchita Lineman, DoubleTalkin Jive and Out Ta Get Me too.... Now that they have re-released a few songs now I hope they drop the "Out Ta Get Me/My Michelle" from the Cincinnati with a good mix.. That would be a boner jam!!3 points

Saw this on Reddit and thought this forum would find it interesting. This was not made by me but by Redditor u/Scorppix_ (Mods: Can I post a link to post?) Below is what was posted. “A while ago I saw a post on r/Metallica about the most and least streamed songs of each album, so I decided to do one for Guns N' Roses, but I mixed it up a bit. Enjoy!” Appetite For Destruction : Sweet Child O' Mine (924.24 M streams) Welcome To The Jungle (596.79 M streams) Paradise City (561.55 M streams) Nightrain (59.44 M streams) Mr. Brownstone (50.91 M streams)3 points
