  1. I feel Slash's TIL solo is a bit too fast for the pace of the song. 

    As a standalone solo it is kickass but it doesn't fit the song as much as the original. 

    I think by the end of the tour we'd get a perfect solo for the song considering Slash is tinkering with the solo and making it better each time he plays it, and we all know how good he is with ballads!

    I have a gift for you.

     

    Thanks!! :headbang:

    Great quality!

    Now that I hear the audio more clearly, I think this is by far the best guitar tone ever in the history of November Rain live performances. So damn close to the album tone. Even the Detroit performance wasn't this good. This one is simply perfection. And Slash is playing much more relaxed than the performances in the first leg of the tour. 

    Axl is great too and Frank has improved a lot! Magical!

    Double Talkin' Jive was great. November Rain was probably great but... :facepalm:

    :rofl-lol:

    Not his fault that he couldn't control himself in such an amazing concert. But yeah, he spoiled it for others watching the video. :tongue2:

    I don't know how the feedback works, probably it's just insanely loud and it happens 'automatically'? 

    In the attached picture from the Detroit show you can see that the onstage 'cabs' really are screens, I find it funny how they even went as far as displaying images of the actual cabinets and speakers (including the Marshall Slash Girl Logo) on the screens before the show starts :D

    In the video Slash posted on his Facebook page (from today's Washington gig) he walks off the stage and you can see his amp rig (including the Silver Jubilees and Slash Signature heads, which are essentially exact clones of the Silver Jubilees, AFAIK) and his guitars, so he definitely does not use any of the onstage stuff.

    EDIT: I know how feedback works, I just don't know how he does it in this particular situation :D

    Yeah, I did notice the cabs were screens while watching the livestream. And yeah, Slash usually doesn't have his actual amps onstage which I saw in an interview of his guitar tech.

    But normally he has a few working cabs onstage for feedback though it seems to not be the case in this gig.

    I don't think a single one of the amps on stage was used. Amps on the stage of huge stadium shows are just for looks, behind the stage is where the main amp rig(s) are located, mic'd up. A lot of photos of Slash's amp rig were posted and it was also shown in the teaser videos, it's still the Silver Jubilees. 

    Also, the loudspeaker cabinets on stage are actually screens for the stage visuals/videos :D that's kinda cool, but it shows that the onstage-amps are actually just for looks...

    Then what does he do to get the feedback effect without having working amps or cabs onstage? 
    And I did notice him going towards them when he wanted feedback in a few videos.

  6. I too felt that Slash's bends in November Rain outro were not up to the mark in the Las Vegas show. But I saw some videos of November Rain performed live by other GnR guitarists, and they too sounded off.


    Here's Bumblefoot playing the outro: 

    I think this is one of the worst NR live performances that I've heard (barring Axl's voice). Also, Bumblefoot's bends seem off. 

    And here's one by Buckethead: 

    The outro bends seem out of tune. Not sure if it is Bucket's fault or something else which is making it sound this way. 

    This surprised me because I know both Bumblefoot and Buckethead are both great guitarists.

    I also saw a relatively recent video of Bumblefoot playing it and he completely nailed the outro. But he wasn't using a Les Paul like he was using in the above video. So, maybe it's got something to do with that?

    I really enjoyed Slash's Mexico performance of NR though. Great tone and playing. It seemed really good except for the tempo and few unnecessary fills by Ferrer.
