I saw his last show on New Years at The Joint at the Hard Rock.  I remember reading that Guns and the Psychedelic Furs had made a swap of Fortus for Tobias, but I've never heard a single thing since.

Axl's vocal coach who helped him get his pipes ready for the AC/DC stint is live streaming from the Guns show, right now.  Axl is full rasp on WTTJ.  Coincidence???  I don't think so.

Axl pointed to my son at the end of Chinese Democracy in KC.

I play the beginning of Jungle from Rock In Rio III for my son, River, before some of his matches at tennis tournaments.  Did that just earlier today, in fact!

Yes.

This is about the Big 3's point of view.  NOT THE FAN'S!

Duff obviously has input.  I think they've opened w/ It's So Easy every show he's been w/ them.

I wanna discuss the set from Duff and Slash's perspective.  Tons of people have left GN'R for one reason or another.  I don't want them to get bored before we have a chance at new music.

Honestly, they cannot enjoy playing Sorry.  Are the dollars enough to keep them happy or are they still too spontaneous to do this on repeat for years and years?

To conquer the world w/ Guns, then go onto incredible success w/ Velvet Revolver, you gotta think the icing on the cake would be to come back to GN'R and make more badass music.  That has to be the goal!!!  (Right?)

When it comes to setlists I always say the same thing:

reviewing setlists on the internet like you're reviewing a tv series or something is stupid. If I attended a show I'd be stoked to hear every song on the list. It's fine. It's not a big deal. Live your life. 

I agree w/ what you just said, but it's not relevant to the topic whatsoever.

Slash returns to Guns N' Roses, They play Coma!, Slash plays Chinese Democracys stuff, Axl on time and has a better mood than 2014. Welcome To The Jungle sounds killer and rasp is more often. This line up sounds and feels like Guns N' Roses

 

And people still complain about the Setlist? After 2 shows in 2017 ??? After Sorry & Out Ta Get Me was played last night??? So they complain that seltlist is always the same? What are you doin? Do you even have a life? To much time? And you watched every stream?

For the current Setlist is one of the best setlists in GN'R history!!! You have Estranged, November Rain,  Civil War, Coma... WTTJ, SCOM, PC, ... Double Talkin Jive, Rocket Queen and Chineses' Stuff:: all hits in one night.

 

Thread is stupid. get a life

I was trying to juxtapose the different approaches toward live shows.  

I don't watch streams and I don't keep track of setlists each night.  I was really asking if people thought that touring these Guns songs in the same way each night would keep Slash and Duff's interest.

Out Ta Get Me came out in 1987.  If them playing it live in 2017 gets your dick hard, then you get a fucking life.  I was just asking posing a question.

I have high hopes of the current band releasing new music, but I have a nagging feeling that Slash & Duff might get bored at shit doing the same thing every night.

Can someone w/ more knowledge fill me in on the flux of VR setlists and of Slash's setlists w/ Myles?  Is this all Axl, as it seems to be, or are they creatures of habit, too?

God, that guy is a douche.

Guns, Crue, VH, Poison

Sweet!  (the band Sweet)  I noticed similarities whenever I listen.  It'd be a perfect fit.

Slither.

Could be cool as bonus material for a reissue of Appetite.  In a filler sort of capacity.

I don't respect him and think his importance in 2016 is greatly exaggerated. 

You will respect Steven Adler and you'll respect the best snare drum ever fucking recorded.

There is no gray area.

One of my all-time favorites!!!  It took me a few years to appreciate it, but what an aggressive song made by a confident motherfucker.  Axl left all his signatures behind and came out swinging for the future.  

Plus, the bass groove and that breathless scream!!!!

Love it!

I bet LA gets all 5 this year.

Richard Fortus is fucking great!

He is def the Ron Wood of GN'R (well-suited replacement that feels like the original)

Whoever said Gilby > Richard should be smacked.

Haha!

Does the venue have to be a participating venue to exchange tickets, or do they do it for any tickets bought through them?

It's standard Ticketmaster policy across the board.

Ticketmaster exchanges are only for concerts that are a week away or more.

Robin Finck is a guitar beast.

There's a note Axl hits during KOHD in Chicago '02 that gives it the edge for me, but I'm w/ you.  This version was more emotional/more respectable to me.

Have you all seen this mean-spirited article from The Daily Beast?

It's pretty low.  Full of insults and one-liners like a hacky comic.  The guy shits on everybody for their appearance, even the festival goers!!!

Well, I found his Twitter (@_davidsikorski), got his email from that (david@earmilk.com, and I emailed him to tell him to get a life.

In a beautiful twist of fate, he has an auto response set up because he is out of town at Coachella.  He gives his phone number and says to call or text him on there.

203-215-7753

Sounds good to me, David.  Hahahahaha! Give him a call or shoot him a text.
