  1. All good ideas that won’t probably  be used. If they used the idea of having one show from each year of the tour, I’d want the forum show that they played 3.5- 4 hours long from 91. 92 is kind of question mark for me. Be ironic if the 93 show they picked was the Saskatoon show. I’d personally like to see the Austin show which I believe was the skin n bones opener

    They didn't.

    That stage is too big with the wrong light rig.

    They had no backup singers in 93 as it was the skin n bones tour without the singers.

    For most of 93, they didn’t have backup singers but I think they played Australia and New Zealand that year. They still had them. Audio from the clip already been established it’s from live era

    They play for three hours and play nearly all their well-known songs. How is that lazy? It's a rhetorical question, by the way, because you made a dumb statement.

    Still what band plays three straight years with pretty much the same setlist. Even if you don’t add new songs, they could cut the setlist and rearrange the songs they play.

  4. I wouldn’t say this tour validates the album but it definitely made me look at the album with a better look (no pun intended). I don’t really consider it a gnr album but it’s not terrible by any means. I think seeing slash and duff was cool for a minute but It became a bit overkill when every new song that was added into the setlist was either a cd song or a cover and then having over 5 cd songs at one point in the setlist I believe. They’ve played about 9 cd songs out of 14 on this tour and 9 out of 12 of appetite. Kind of surprise considering even casual fans going to these shows don’t really know cd songs.

  5. I wouldn’t rule out gnr new music. I think a good opportunity to record new music is for the next terminator movie coming out and do one song for it. Would be nice to see izzy record with them since touring is probably not an option (personally, it be good just see him record new music again) . It’s all hopeful thinking but since slash and duff aren’t ruling it out, it’s possible. You never know with this band.

    actually, they played Madagascar at every single show since RIR3 - that means 3 plays in 2001 and 6 plays in 2002 before VMAs :) 

    yes, it sounded quite OK in 2002, considering Axl was arriving late as always and instead of arriving super late thanks to the taxi stuck in traffic jam, he ran on foot to the venue. that explains why he was even more flushed out than usually.

    Yeah I thought they debuted in 2002 but then I remembered rio 2001. It’s not a show along with the vmas that I watch a lot  so kind of easy to forget for myself

    Madagascar debut happened at RIR 2001 already, and was played a couple more times before the VMAs. I know that the VMAs were probably the first publicly known newgnr appearance, but no way that was the debut of anything.

    Shit I forgot rock in rio 2001. At least it sounded alright in 2002 even though the overall performance at the show wasn’t good.

  8. Well at least he showed up for rehearsal. But yeah these were dark times for gnr and that performance is possibly the worst show In bands history from axls voice next to the bridge school benefit. I feel the rehearsal for this isn’t worth blowing a ton of money for either. But hey what do you guys prefer: Madagascar debut but the classics sounded like shit or a whole show sounding like shit but at least we got pitman waving a towel. 😂😂😂

  9. the thing I don’t get about the bands setlist is the amount of covers that are in the setlist that just drag the shows along. I’m perfectly fine if those songs such as black hole sun and witchita linemen and the seeker are not played if it gives axl a little bit more stamina. I’m ok with a setlist that’s skin n bones length to be honest.

    It does frustrate me that songs that have been rarely played live that the band could pull off today are not being played such as so fine, bad obsession, and pretty tied up. I’m not sure how much he would of factored into this setlist, but if izzy was in the band some of those songs that we haven’t seen live a lot such as dust n bones, 14 years, and think about you would surely make an appearance. I’m surprised think about you hasn’t made an appearance on this tour considering axl played that song a lot from 2001-2006
