I think it's a cool concept because most times you get to see some songs which are pretty rarely played. So far I've seen:

Metallica-Master of Puppets

Bruce Springsteen-The River

Bruce Springsteen-Born to Run

Interpol-Turn on the Bright Lights

The only problem is that Metallica has an average attendance of 30.000-40.000, GNR something like 8-10

metallica=3 originalmembers / gnr=1

they should really tour with queen

Well...not to be an ass or something, but technically Metallica only has 2 original members; Kirk Hammett is not original, he replaced Dave Mustaine...

But ontopic: I would buy a ticket for a Guns n Roses/Metallica concert, no doubt about it!! It's my 2 favourite bands in 1 concert, so I couldn't ask for anything more. But too bad, I guess it'll never happen.

Awesome setlist? With the exception of 'Think about you' and 'Anything Goes', every AFD song was played. You dont need me to tell you that the majority of those songs are over 20 years old.

I dont see what is 'awesome' about hearing a cover band. You have to remember that the musicians (Obvioulsy minus Axl and Dizzy) in the current line up did not write or have anything to do with 80% of the music they are playing, so this pushes them towards a tribute band rather than a cutting edge Rock Band surely? Why are this new band getting credit for playing other people's material?

If they want recognition as a real band, they have to play their own music! I thought this was called the Chinese Democracy tour?

After going to a few shows this year, it is obvious what is more popular to the crowd. How well does 'IRS' go down when compared to 'WTTJ'? Or 'Better' versus 'Its so easy'? The old material is much more appreciated than the new. Largely because the new stuff seems pretty alien to most GNR fans, and please remember that this forum is probably less than 0.1% of GNR fans in the world. So dont give me the argument 'the majority on this Forum thinks the new stuff is cool so your wrong'.

I remember hearing this set minus the new songs at Donnington in '88, so all they have added is a few new songs in eighteen years. What a shame the band never carried on what it started. The new songs are alright, but certainly nothing that will be listened to in twenty years time though.

Guess they should've played only one song during the "Get in the ring tour" then??

I was there too!

Who is Beta?

I just had the same question...i did see a old lady on stage for a few seconds but i never heard of a woman called "Beta"...
