I'd like Knockin on heavens door to replace Knocking on Heavens Door....the current version sucks 

Exactly.. I used to love that song live.. but in recent years it became boring and too long. Jams are nice but there's a limit.. 

As far as bringing SoD back. Yes please. I'm glad I got to hear SoD live in 2006.

I read awhile ago on HTGTH that the sports jerseys look was specifically due to a stylist according to Jarmo. 

Even though they were en vogue at the time, it provided a cover for and exacerbated Axl's weight issues.

weight issues? wtf is this weight issues nonsense coming from anyway between 1986-2007 he was NOT fat or had any obesity what so ever. in recent years he may have got some belly fat and a bit bulkier face but not obese in any way. it's almost ridiculous how some people think he is so fat when he's actually isn't    If someone looked exactly the same when 20 or 50-60 i would be worried lol. 

Sorry for the OT but i'm VERY bored and whiny tonight..

From what I've read, the arena will have the ceiling closed. Sounds weird though since that would be the first concert indoors of this leg. 

Does anyone else have some more info regarding this?

yeah but I meant outside the arena ofc.. I'm going to que a couple of hours. 

The arena will have the ceiling closed YES. I don't mind if they have it closed.

Lets pray for sunny weather.. seems like it's going to rain and be a bit cold  I guess i'll have to bring a hip flask with some warming JD and a rain coat (yellow)

he answered 1 of those at 12:42 here. He's asked "what do you do to keep your voice in shape and how has it changed in the last 10 years?"

Rhanks! forgot that one..

There should be a "The Axl Rose voice thread" 

Would be interesting if someone would ask Axl what the difference is in singing ACDC vs GN'R songs. and if it takes a toll on him to sing with rasp more often. And how he take care of his voice on/off tour etc.

Voice/singing teqnuiqe (Spelling?)  is an interesting subject IMO.

Slash and the rest are talking about their instruments I think it would be interesting to hear Axl talk about his "instrument" sometime. (hmm that sounded a bit weird, but you know what I mean lol)

When will Guns N' Roses hit the stage? My ticket says 19:30? Isn't that way to early for guns and too late for backyard babies/the darkness?

They open the gates at 17:00 an the first opening band hit the stage 18:30.

Swedish Rock radio " Rockklassiker" are having a pre party 16:00 at Gate 1.

I like his work on those albums. Miss him in the band.. I felt a bit disappointed when he didn't join the semi reunion.

i've just listened to some live streams over Instagram and i'm glad that i saw GN'R last year in San Diego.

I usually don't complain about Axl's voice but he better do some work with a vocal coach. Many times during a show he sounds so "airy" (is that even a Word?) and thin. out of breath. I have no problems with his Clean voice as long as it's powerfull and not "Mickey" kind of tone. Anyway i hope he'll do a great show in Stockholm next week! I bet i'm gonna have a great time either way but a Little more rasp and Power wouldn't hurt. Maybe it's time to do a shorter show, if his voice have trouble giving 100% for almost 3 hours.

I love piano, but i rather hear Axl play a piano solo like in the 90's before NR. but then again it's the perfect bathroom break!

Except for the 90's IMO Axl was in his vocal prime 2006. total control and a very powerful and wide range. 2010 also great but a bit too much rasp on songs that don't need it. 2016 leg of the tour was pretty good! especially in the beginning. 

woke up to nice sunny weather on my country's national day just feeling grateful

i think i'm not gonna see anymore shows on periscope until the one i'm attending (Stockholm) and hope that Axl has a good voice then. watch all the shows makes the excitement go away a bit.

Just Sounds like Axl just talk some random shit when testing the sound. 

Wish you guys a great evening at Slane ?

make it a Poll instead? =)

i hope for something good (afd5 show,new song) , but i don't expect something other than another show added.

hmm.. depending on mood. But right now (In no particular order):

1. Don't damn me

2. My Michelle

3. WTTJ (live)

4. Paradise City

5. November Rain

6. Nightrain

Ok, I get that. But don't you think that it would have been more gentle from Izzy if he would have left the band after the tour?

upgrated to golden circle  How big will the GC be you think??

on the first page in this thread i posted a pic of inside the venue. you can see the front section there. My guess is that it will be something like that size wise.  I'ts from a Bruce Springsteen Concert i Think.. 

it's wierd that Live Nation and friends Arena didn't put up a decent map of all the sections in the arena when the ticket got released.

Sympathy for the devil-better then the original IMO.

The Garden-GREAT song!

One in a million

You're crazy (acoustic)

Ain't it fun

Black leather

Hair of the dog

Dust n bones.

why all this bitching and whining about Axl maybe release some Tequila brand?  let him release a fuckin brand of Tequila if he want to. Don't buy it if you hate it.  I Think it's fun when bands release they own brands of beer/whine/spirits whatever..
