Its Tino

They're being played to introduce the material to a whole new audience. 

And I liked CD before and I like it now.

I still call bullshit on Sorry. lol  I think it has multiple meanings (most of the CD songs do - Axl says as much in his chats on here).  A Slash sentiment runs through that song that Axl may not even have been aware of at the time of writing, but may have become aware once the album was released and people pointed it out to him.  In fact, I think the whole album references Slash.  No, not every line of every song, but here and there.  You can read it sometimes, and you can hear it sometimes, too, in Axl's vocals or the instrumental.  Same way we can hear Slash's emotions in his solos.  Just my interpretation.

Agree with you.  People look at those lyrics and think, oh it has to be romantic feelings about a woman, because that's so many people's default definition of love.  Thank god the heart is capable of more.   I believe the love Axl is speaking of isn't sexual, or romantic.  It's a bond.  Deeper than simply friendship, inexplicable, beyond definition.  It's why those two had such obvious chemistry.  I also think The Blues is a metaphor for Slash (I still call it SOD though, because that's the title Axl went with in the end).

Ha! Sorry, I've just gone and added to that.   Well, I much prefer to analyse song lyrics than Axl's never-changing vocals for the millionth time. 

Haha don't apologize. It happens all the time here

Too bad this thread is turning into song lyric analysis 

There has to be another thread for that...

Ok so... I don't even know where to start but.. I've seen GnR 4 times in my life and attended all of these shows with the best friend a person could ever hope for. Twice last year and twice this year. Started with second night Foxboro last year which was one of, if not the first time they played Catcher which was an amazing show where 25 dollar nosebleed tickets got upgraded to 280 dollar face value second row Slash side floor tickets. Next time was a few days later at the Metlife second night show from about as far back as one could possibly be. This year was Hershey and Hartford. I was holding the other pit ticket Mooch14 had (posted back on page 2) which was my first time pit for any show. I'm not sure if it was the whole pit experience, but in my opinion this was the best show of my life hands down. The energy up front is unreal, and hearing the crowd go wild is incredible. I don't know what anyone else is hearing, but from where I was the Chinese Democracy songs everyone complains about had great reception and the crowd cheering! It was amazing to be there for the first time Prostitute was played.

My special moment of what I consider an unforgettable night was around the 1:30 mark in this video:

The man himself, Mr. W. Axl Rose taking a second to smile and wave back to me!

Like I said earlier, I also like this show more than the MetLife shows. I'm starting to think it's that old, decrepit, unassuming arena. I saw Pearl Jam there a few years ago and it was, for lack of a better word, magical. Maybe because it's so small. Maybe because they feel like they could take more risks in a secondary market, I don't know. 

It'd be pretty cool if they played a "TSI medley" al la Metallica does "justice medley" instead if doing just New Rose or just Attitude. 

I want to preface this next comment by saying at the MetLife Stadium show I attended last year I was so excited and had such a nervous energy that I had been drinking steadily all evening and throughout to show, BUT I do have a good recollection of the show...

In my most humble opinion, it almost felt like a different show even tho the setlists are almost identical. I think it's because of that extra time they added to the show. Not only because of the extra few songs, but because they really took their time and jammed on each song

Just got home and my ears are still ringin'!!!! 

So shocked and pumped to have been able to see prostitute live! I was so surprised it took me 15 seconds to think of the song title because I wasn't expecting it, and it's one of my favorite CD tracks!

Also, it didn't seem to be sold out but in filled out well. 

Pesonally I much preferred this show over the MetLife Stadium shows last year. I thought they sounded tighter and I love the arena setting. 

Lastly, 

The show should really be called "Slash featuring Guns N' Roses". Slash is clearly the star of the tour. He killed it yet again. 

That colt shirt!!!!!!!!!!!!

I absolutely LOVE opening with Its So Easy and Nightrain being last before the encore. Obviously the night must end with Paradise. 

Even tho I enjoy TIL, I would dump it. I'd also dump the seeker, Wichita lineman and BHS. Keep whole lotta Rosie  

OTGM should be a regular occurrence for sure. I'd like new Rose and attitude every night. 

I also would love to hear garden of eden but I'm unsure if Axl could pull it off 

I would also say reckless life. I find it really fun

Please no more shows. We want interviews and new music, and a new setlist

I cannot wait for interviews.

A lot of band have three guitarists. Iron Maiden for example.

Good for maiden. How well did it work out for Axl? 

I thought and think Bucket was a cool addition. Robin was a weird dude too but I didn't mind. My only lineup gripe was the whole 3 guitar player thing. I hated that.

I wish that he would've stayed in GN'R.

This has to be trolling.

My recommendation is to bang em out in chronological order. I love doing that. 

Fortus on lead on Maddy?

I'm on the floor, section E row 8.....starting to get excited

I went to the Hartford show in '11 too. That was a good show. 

Oh man it was my favorite concert I went to at the point. I thought Axl sounded excellent. I lost my voice for 2 days. 

I typically shuffle their entire catalog. 

I find it to be more realistic than hearing any new GNR material

There's that optimism again. 

I feel like I started a simialar thread and it got locked prettaaaaaay quickly 

I haven't listened to all his solo stuff but the album I enjoy most is Like a Dog.
