Not knowing the coolest guitar riff, which he used as chorus, was a Buckethead part from a solo song of his kind of killed it. I thought that riff was based off an actual guitar part from the gnr song.

Yeah I liked every lineup pretty much, but anything over having Slash and Duff back in the band doesn’t make any sense to me.
Best NuGuns moment for me was seeing them live in AC at the House of Blues in 2012. First time seeing any of them in that lineup. AC was perfect place to see them cause who cares how late they go on there. Show started at midnight, lots of fine ladies in the crowd, Axl’s performance was strong as hell, 2017 in Hershey was only other time out of 4-5 GnR shows where Axl might have sounded better than the 2012 AC.
After the show we went to the Foundation Room to party cause entry was free w ticket. Hanging out having a smoke and sudsed up, i look over out of a few people out there and here comes Tommy, Bumblefoot, Fortus, Dizzy, and their wives/gfs. Maybe Pitman, I don’t think Frank was there. Talked to them a lil but got distracted by some females and after hanging with them inside at the bar (20 yr old model paid to tour w the band was disappointing my head is shaved when she put my hat on :(). So go to go back outside on the deck and now security has it blocked off and I can’t get back. So from that point we kept sneaking back into the area they came up from thinking maybe Axl is back there. Well it makes sence now working in the casino that after that back room was a kitchen and corridor to elevator. But we kept going back and a nice security guy would catch us again and again but was nice as hell every time, just in case Axl came back there.
Before going to that after party, Ashba was out on the gaming floor for selfies with a casino host or security. I shook his hand but no photoselfy and I don’t do autographs, so talked to him a bit and remember telling him if there were any extra groupies cause I bought some gas station boner pills on whim driving here. He laughed.
….went looking for breakfast at 7am and we ended up having more beers with a group of hookers that just got off the clock. What a fun and hilarious AC and GnR trip…

No, and it won’t sound any better. This is the Guns n Roses lineup now & it’s a good one.
I liked every lineup but I prefer 4tus, Reese, and Dizzy in the GnR lineup. I do miss Izzy and liked Adler’s sound, but Adler is a fool n a tool and doesn’t deserve to be in the band and I don’t want him in there.
Loved Izzy but 4tus has been a better fit since the later 2000s since not much writing and he’s a better live performer than Izz.
The only roster members I didn’t really enjoy seeing in the band were Pittman, Tobias, Gilby, Sorum, Freese. Yeah, I liked seeing Ashba in the band more than them lol.
And I don’t join the trend of criticizing Frank. He’s fine. Brain was the only impressive drummer but they were all good.
Side note: i genuinely liked the last Motorhead lineup the best. Rush could never be a band without Geddy, Alex, Neil.

Last Guns show at Hershey was a dud. I was on the floor towards the back so maybe that had something to do with it. The first show they played there since beinng banned from Hershey stadium, 2016-17, that show was awesome…I was up close in the front oit for that one. Hershey stadium is a very tough venue for the sound crew. I did think the last Guns Hershey show opened a leg of the tour and it seemed like band and crew treated it as a rehearsal almost and just accepted that it wasn’t going to be a good show.

I think Axl is referring to Beta as his personal manager as opposed to business/band manager. It’s hard to tell though. Personal (loving) manager makes most sense to me...

That’s a real insightful response. Instead of expressing yourself with emoji’s, maybe tell me why you think Axl is better. Link some videos where you think Axl is great. I’m open to discussion. You giving me nothing but face palms isn’t going to change my mind. Here's some video of Scott
Axl’s voice is one in a billion. His singing capacity and range is one of the best ever. Stage presence they’re both great. Weiland was phenomenal but Axl Rose is, well, Axl fucking Rose.

Anybody with a decent ear for vocals can come to the conclusion that Weiland was much better than Axl. To me, Axl’s appeal was always about his attitude and unpredictability, not his singing. Even in his prime he was inconsistent. Weiland in his prime blows away Axl in his prime. It’s not even close in my opinion.

Scott all the way. Axl ruins Slither by trying to be raspy in the chorus. Scott was true to the orignal on Its So Easy. And overall, Scott was a much better vocalist. He may not have had as wide of a range as Axl, but he was much more versatile. I like to call him a vocal chameleon. He could do the powerful hard rocking stuff and also sing ballads beautifully with a much cleaner toned voice. He was a much more diverse singer than Axl.

Hahahahaha god damn. The people that play in his “band” must be real hard up. This Constantine guy just sacrifice any career possibilities he might have had.
I’m so sorry GnR let him play a couple songs on the recent tour. How embarrassing to be associated with Steven

Who the hell would pay $400 or more for that!? Hahahahaha

Duff and Slash missed a golden opportunity to tell Billie jo and Green Day to fuck off for that piss poor, idiotic, self indulgent introduction. Could have done that right on stage right there.

Wow, how lame would I have been if I didn't enjoy all those Rush shows from '96 to 2015 if I thought Geddy Lee should sound identical to how he did when he was 24. I'd have been a fucking fool. I'm glad I didn't do that and haven't done that the last two times I saw awesome Guns n Roses shows along with this one on Sunday. Great vocal performances everyone time I saw either band.

Crazy that a guy who's never seen and only features for all of 10-15 seconds before a single note is played is more revered and welcomed than the current drummer, 2nd guitarist and both keyboardists ;-D
Revisionism. "I was happier back in those days so that was the right way - how it was then will make everything better now."

...and and and this guy that was taller than me was standing in front of me during the show.
My favorite bands are based on fans clubs

Huh? Newsted didn't imagine that he was given an ultimatum to choose between bands. That happened.
LOL at the pissed off and angry fanboys here turning to insults for Newsted.
Never liked Newsted. Has nothing to do with liking GnR. Of how dysfunctional GnR was back then. Seeing Newstead live, hearing his interviews, hearing his solo shit...all shit.

Newsted wrote Blackened and My Friend Misery, both of which are superior than anything Metallica have recorded since Newsted left.
With Hetfield and Urlich

Sending good thoughts from Serbia. Grew up in Yugoslavia in the 90s and where I live it was never THAT fucked up but I can totally relate to you
God that was awkward, painful, and nerdy. Not to mention it sounded like shit.

Some time ago I read on this forum someone didn't want new music from this line-up, now I'm reading someone wants the show to be shorter. My head is spinning here. Sorry, I can't take this seriously.
So fuckin dumb, isn't it...

Those videos (sound) aren't really the best quality to determine

Newstead who does he play for now? HMMN - sounds like a guy who had his bass erased for in justice for all - He is so smart he must be in band huh? lol I seen you homie with OZZY AND ZAKK WYLDE - you couldnt keep up and they let it you go from the gig- practice your bass not your mouth
This is exactly right. I saw Ozzy with Trujillo a few times and then Ozzy with Newstead that one tour. NOTICEABLE difference. Trujillo is light years better than Newstead. Oh, and hear Newsteads music? That's why he had no input with Metallica. That shit was garbage. How much of a douche did he look like in that video from his last solo shit walking in the street power lipping to his songs. This was a guy made from your local bar scene who got lucky being picked by two guys, Hetfield and Lars, who were fucked up at the time. Trujillo is actually showcased quite a bit during Metallica's live shows and it sounded like he was more a part of this last album than Kirk was. Fuck off Newstead. He quit on his own solo band within a year.

All of the effects added to this version are everything people have complained about on Absurd and The General…and Perhaps.
the stripped down version was much more definitive.
