His screaming verse in Monsters is fucking incredible 

I’ve been to close to 20 GNR shows. Last show I saw was on the first NITL tour. Only way I’d ever see them again(especially since the performance level has decreased so much) is based on the opening band and new material.
 

You will always have fun at a GNR show, but I can’t pay for the same GNR playlist with bad interchangeable covers. If NuGuns was back I’d be more than happy to pay any amount of cash. 

So Fine

Down Here on the Farm

You ain’t the first

Shotgun Blues

My World

November is 14 years since CD dropped. Seems like a perfect time for a new unannounced album to me.

I’ll never see them live again.(I’ve seen them over 10 times and NU era blew this away) I don’t even care that there are no new songs, but the many classics they choose to play he can’t even sing anymore or he sings in a tone that doesn’t work. Too many yes man around him afraid to tell him specific songs sound terrible.

He looked physically healthy though…

2 discs(5 tracks each lineup)

Disc 1-original lineup/Illusions lineup

Disc 2-Early CD Era/Reunion lineup

They’d never have to release anything again as it gives something to every fan out there. 
 

-Nu Era live concerts were much better than classic lineup(2006 specifically)

-Finck is GNRs best guitarist

-End of “since I don’t have you” is axl’s best vocal Performance 

That was the only thing they were better at than GNR

Izzy has no interest in this shit show. He’s not willing to put up with nonsense. 

I’ve seen 15+ shows and all were better than the current lineups shows. Nu Era blows this current lineup away. No comparison. The passion and drive from early 2000’s can’t be matched. 

Frank is a terrible drummer…for GNR

Complainers going to complain. They always have here and they always will. 

Just heard it. After not hearing Tommy on CD good to hear Duffs bass back. Love the school bell at the beginning. Sounds MUCH better than the demo.

The General

OMG is perfect as is. No need to update or change it.

To me it’s all about picking songs that Axl can still sound really good on. I don’t need a song I love to be played if he can’t hit the vocals on those tracks anymore. Plenty of material he can still sing in range and sound amazing.

Extremely absurd to think Slash and Duff weren't involved in deciding what song they are going to release. 0 chance. You seriously believe that, then you are in lalaland

No YOU are the one living in another reality. They are just hired guns like everyone else. Axl releases what he says. No other scenario.

Wait how is it a fuck you to Slash and Duff if Slash and Duff dig the song enough to add parts to it and play it? 

 

 

Because he is telling them they have to play HIS Guns N’ Roses. Re-record over a song so old and not their musicals style.You think for a half a second that would be the first single they would release if they had any say at all? 

Those cowards are only around for the cash grab anyway.

The more I listen(which must have been 100 times by now)the more I like it.

1-love that it’s a power move by axl and a fuck you to slash and duff

2-don’t play it live it. doesn’t work

3-maybe it’s my ears but the first two times I hear the line “screaming fucking banshee” it sounds like it started a quarter of a second early. They need to fix that.

To be fair this isn’t the kind of song that should have been debut live.(as absurd)It’s a studio song and hearing it live does it no justice as to what’s going on. After about 100 listens it’s as tolerable as rhiad or scraped. Filler for an album, not a first single and not going to sound good live.

I’m not embarrassed to say I love the original rio version. After playing “absurd” I 100% don’t want to hear any new music from them. So glad I didn’t get tickets to Met life. They’ve sounded terrible overall from all the vids I’ve seen. It’s over folks.

Get rid of this bunch of cash grabbing whores and go back to Nu era. There was at least some excitement and unknown with them. This current lineup is so predictable and unfortunately it’s the same unenthused performance each time overall. Same song and dance.  I desperately miss Tommy and Robin.

So glad I refunded my tickets for this upcoming tour and didn’t buy new ones after covid. Straight up Axl hasn’t sounded good in almost a decade, an embarrassing shell of himself and personally the band just isn’t gritty anymore. It’s over polished.

I’ve got all 4 of those shows on dvd(and went to 3/4 shows)and they were some of the most electric performances from any bands shows that I’ve ever been to.(around 300 concerts) All the CD songs were insanely good. All the special guests were having fun.(Bach, Kid Rock, Izzy)Finck fucking OWNING the stage. Tommy having a GREAT time. Axl super interactive and seemed HAPPY. 

And now we’ve got the AARP lineup and tour
