smoking guns

For the people that hate Angus Young:

GnR has played about 80 shows so far, and the guy has appeared in 6 of them for 2 songs, which (with the exception of one show in Australia, I think) didn't replace any of the songs in the regular set. The band played its full set plus these two songs.

It's okay if you don't like him (to each their own), but why do you make such a big deal out of it?

Only 6 times??? That includes Coachella and the Australia dates? seems like more, but I guess not. 

After Coachella Angus should have never come back.  It is so tired and played out now... We already have to deal with the Seeker, now we have an Angus worship session every night while Don't Damn me or Slither don't get played.

NO. It's a fact. There are more people, who love that rock legends show up unexpected at concerts they attend, than there are miserable cunts like you, who constantly bitch and whine because their favourite singer has the audicity to work with an artist they don't like.

Angus, we have all see you play many times.. You were at your peak during the Razor's Edge tour.  You were great also on Ball Breaker and even Black Ice... But you suck now.  Your tone is shit and your chops are falling off.  Let Slash and Richard solo some and/or play better AC/DC songs.  Thanks Angus!!

But, WHY?!?!

Well i'm sure the folks actually attending the shows are loving it......It's not intended to impress some guy behind his laptop.................

Wrong. They want to see GNR. They didn't pay to see Angus come ham it up and Have Slash and Richard playing Malcolm Young. I LOVE AC/DC but this is some selfish shit. At least let Slash and Fortus have some fun. I mean Angus is past his prime and these are shitty AC/DC songs in the big scheme of things.

Yes!!

Whole Lotta Rosie and Riff Raff with Angus. Nice!

Curious if Angus will come to any of the US shows with the band...

I fucking hope not. Sick of this shit. We basically have Angus on tour but can't get Adler or Popcorn or Don't Damn Me or Slither. But we get 2 boring songs with Angus and Slash can't solo when Angus is there. BULLSHIT

Enough Black Hole Sun, give us Anastasia  or Standing In the Sun or Wicked Stone. Some shit Slash would be excited to play. 

Nobody can compare with South America with the exception of maybe India when Slash played SCOM there and that place got out of Fucking control.

If you legitimately count Live And Let Die and KOHD as "covers", please leave lol Those are GN'R songs at this point. Sorry.

Maybe but neither would be missed. LALD sucks sans Axl screams and KOHD is way too fucking bloated. Give me Don't Damn Me and Down on the Farm. 

Need Melissa jam ASAP!

This is because just for country the first world,no others

Correct... As if the people that died in Manchester were more special than those in Egypt...

The amount of snowflakes in this thread that have to tell us how we should be happy and GNR doesn't owe us shit is shocking. We know they are alive, WHICH IS MADDENING AS TO WHY THEY ARE WASTING FUCKING TIME!!!!! Cornell released music and gave fans his all up till the day he died. Slash and Duff both did as well until the "reunion". It is frustrating to see the depths some here go to defend Axl and team Brazil. Oh well, have a happy Memorial Day Weekend!!!

The promo video should have simple said, "5/25 new dates in North America being announced, get ready, the boys are coming home to where it all began"

That way we would have known we were getting dates and people would have been excited to see what cities are getting a show.  Instead they do this super vague shit and spend 5 minutes telling us the GNR history only to announce dates that are totally unrelated to most of the shit in the fucking promo video..

I hope Beta and Fernando are 2 of the votes that said it met the hype... lol

36-4  total blood bath.. The people that justify this shit are getting killed but they are the vocal minority it seems.  Seems most GNR fans see through this bullshit.

This is what happens when you don't have a real management team...

When they do finally have big news nobody is going to pay attention after how bad they whored themselves out for this one.... The tease they did was not warranted..

I missed the Egypt victims tribute video... Time to que KOHD for our Christian friends in Egypt that were killed by a terrorist like the ones in Manchester!!

Dumbest question ever

Yes, it is obvious it came no where near to living up to the hype... But want to see how many defenders of that bush league shit are out there...

Please vote and discuss

Fortus has zero signature licks and seems to get in the way of Slash more times than not. I don't hate the dude and he is a very good player, but I too would rather have Gilby or Izzy. Someone that knows their role. Also it often seems that Fortus is louder in the Mix too. That really pisses me off lol.

The best way to get what you want is to not go to shows or buy any of their merchandise. If You Want new music or original members to return etc. then stop spending your hard earned money on a product that you're obviously not happy with. You can't really moan but still attend shows because that just tells them that what they're selling actually is evidently enough.

Would be hard for me to tell a hard core in Europe to not go to the show when they haven't seen this in a long ass time. But for me, I saw them 3 times last year so I can. But no way am I gonna say "don't go" while I got to enjoy it. The shows are awesome. But this is bullshit.

Simple reason: They're doing it because they can.

Not saying it's right, just saying that's what it is.

Russ, time to start calling them out. Sure, see the show and have fun, but expecting more is normal for every other big band. For fucks sale the 70 year olds in the stones gave us Doom and Gloom. We get the Fucking Seeker. We are the most hard core of Hard core and they (Axl) are taking advantage of us. They need to know we are pissed even though we may attend the show that doesn't mean we accept all this shit they dish out. No mention of a special AFD 30? No Blueray. NOTHING!!!  They delayed the announcement due to Manchester so they could announce a show in Tulsa Fucking Oklahoma???? And I have no problem with tulsa but how is that related to Manchester?
