He sounds like a nightmare to work with. As an IT person, shit happens and sometimes the techs get the blame when it may, or may not be their fault.

It seems like an isolated incident considering how well he handled other technical difficulties on this tour. Not defending him freaking out on the sound crew but it would be pretty overwhelming to be performing in front of thousands of people expecting a great show and having sound issues mid-song. I know he has a history of being a prick to the sound crew but he's also a human being and could have just lost his cool for a minute. I'm sure Hetfield/Jagger/Tyler/whoever have chewed out the sound people a few times themselves.

That said, I agree, someone like that sounds like a nightmare to work with.

What song are we on?

Just listened to it in the car a few times at full volume from Spotify and JESUS the production on this is a mess. 

I agree. There's not enough low end in the first verse and it doesn't sound like there was too much processing done on the vocal track. The song itself is really good but the mix is super inconsistent.

Hardskool is ok and about equal to one of the decent 'fillers' on UYI.

Silkworms is a cringy, embarrasing mess.  It was garbage in the late 90s and he is so utterly void of any inspiration and work ethic, that unfortunately, he's had to bring to the front again.

 

And maybe a similar question will come out next time they get their tour guarantee payment, so I'll answer in advance.

Perhaps is ok and about equal to one of the decent 'fillers' on UYI.

Atlas is dreadful, and somehow worse than the similar Cathcher, and was rightfully lefty off Chinese.  It should have been discarded 20 years ago, but he is so utterly void of any inspiration and work ethic, that unfortunately, he's had to bring to the front again.

ok

Hard Skool, because it's "more song", but I don't think it's great either, Riad/Scraped level.

We're all entitled to our opinions but HS is leagues above Riad/Scraped

Don't question GN'R logic, therein lies the path to madness 

Zika. Good night folks! Even if they didn't play it, we still got the studio release today! Things are looking up in GN'R world!

I wanted to say Axl doesn’t think he can sing it, but there he is doing Coma and SOYL so who the fuck knows. Really odd.

Has he mentioned it at all tonight? 

Don't Cry

I don't think it's gonna happen tonight

Ohhhhhh my fucking godddddd!! 

THEY'RE PLAYING THEIR BIGGEST HIT AT ONE OF THEIR SHOWS!! OMG I CANT BELIEVE IT!! 

Soul Monster. I NEED to hear what kind of vocal Axl laid down on that track 

Idgaf where it goes as long as they play it. 

Such a great Nightrain at this show

How do I actually hear it then?  

1. Install TunnelBear VPN

2. Change your location to Australia/NZ

3. Go onto YT and search for Hard Skool

Who else is on 100th time hearing this song?

Amateur, I've already listened to it 2,487,366 times 

I really like the single note stuff Slash is doing in the verses. The tension/release going from the solo into the final chorus is fucking gold 

I love this band 

I kinda wish Axl would use the verse section of Prostitute as an intro to NR like he did in 2002/2006.

This is really cool dude. I like how it went ambient and then you brought in the heavy riff. Keep at it!!

I always loved that song live.  I caught it in 2011 and 2012 and it just hits differerent when the snare drum hits are nice and loud and groovy.  Slash's additions to it are great as well

So when I saw the band in 2017, I actually forgot they had put Madagascar into the set and I was pleasantly surprised when the encore started 

But it's a good song that shouldn't have left the set.

A random musing, anyone remember that old mygnrforum member volcano62? Ever since 2016 I have wondered how much he hates seeing Axl and "$la$h" sharing the stage together and them still going to this day lol

I remember there being a big push to unban him right around the time of the Vegas shows

Jupiter is slightly off alignment. No Hardskool tonight

Brb I'm gonna go push it back into place 

Fuck it, I'm getting hyped. HARD SKOOL STARTS NOW!

Remember keep expectations low or... realistic. Still pretty cool! 

That's not how things work around here. We all get hyped at the slightest hint of new music and then lose our minds when it's not played.
