OFFICIAL 'TAIPEI, TAIWAN 11/12/09' SHOW THREAD

Recommended Posts

Everyone who ever believed in this band, and stayed with them through the CD saga anywhere from 1997-2008, SHOULD be on this forum for this tour. I'm absolutely giddy that the band is touring again. Where the hell is everyone?

ER, Bluesy, HRS, Highvoltage, Leigh Rok, ParadiseCityGirl, KBear, Turn It Up, Kaneda, Zint, GOAB, UK SUBS...and most of all...MADISON?!

I expect to see you all (bar maybe SUBS) here on the tour kickoff.

I'm still around. More of a lurker lately, since I'm a little too busy to post much and unfortunately I haven't been able to track any threads very closely this week.

Which thread is this KOHD link people keep talking about? Ashba is the one part of this tour I'm most interested in hearing. Besides Axl of course. I've got a feeling Ashba can play the shit out of the material, both old and new.

The show should be happening right now - is this correct?

Hey dudes. Nice to see some familiar faces (or usernames, rather) amidst the sea of strangers.

Oddly enough, I had absolutely no idea that a GNR concert was transpiring in a few hours. This was the first time in months that I decided to casually check up on what was going on here, and lo and behold, the comeback show is about to take off! I suppose it's destiny or some crazy fanboy intuition. It's pretty exciting, but it would probably be moreso if we could actually get a stream going. I fondly remember the Rio show in 2006 when we all collectively shat our pants together, watching it on this board. Good times.

"This I Love" will be an emotional experience during a Live Performance for Axl-

I know for a fact that he recorded it over 17 years ago and held onto it (was one of the oldest written & recorded songs on CD), since it's such an emotional and painful song. It brings tears to my eyes just listening to the studio version...

One of the best on CD, I personally believe, along with "Street of Dreams," which was co-written by Dizzy (Rose/Reed) which of course has been performed live prior as "The Blues." I think Dizzy Reed's talent is completely underappreciated and I cannot wait for his new solo album to release (Produced by Del James) I've been fortunate to meet Dizzy and his family many times and they are extremely generous people. Dizzy actually has an amazing voice and people who haven't seen Hookers N' Blow will be blown away by this upcoming album.

So rock on Rose and Reed! Friends from the early days (even during AFD)! You two and the rest of the band will rock some major Taiwanese ass in just a few hours!

Good Luck Guns N' Fuckin' Roses!

So glad that Catcher in the Rye is included. My favourite song from CD!

So glad they don't play the UYI songs (Estranged, Civil war, and so on)

Axl is keeping them for the reunion tour :)

can't people understand that there aren't going to be a reunion?

there is no way that Axl and the Cancer will be on the same stage again

Was there pyro on NR in 06/07?

During BBF's solo, there was a wall of fireworks being him...

This was so fuckin' bad ass. This is the reason why I LOVE BBF being in GNR!

I reckon that Slash solo is great, but BBF's version give me the biggest tits-like goosebumps I've ever had!

So this is like an Internet Tail-Gate party? I'm pretty sure any streams would not be allowed by Uzi Suicidal LLC, as they all get taken down by You Tube and other sites...

Are we expected to just get updated through twitter and here by people who are actually there right now? Concert starts in a little over 3 hours from now, I believe. Maybe just a bunch of people taking pics with their CrackBerries and uploading them here, or where is the place to be? (Obviously the place to be is in the Taipei County Stadium)

And of course there are other places to host videos, but a live stream is something else entirely.

Excuse me if this has already been discussed prior. I'm sure everyone is really curious about how Axl looks these days; (I'm one of them, ha)

I also don't want my head bashed in by Axl either. He has learned some awesome ninja skills in the last couple years apparently...

"He's singing on stage, much like the eel, it is rock, but the body is very soft..."

LOL, that's hilarious. Has Axl gained weight again?

Accidentally deleted, here's the link with the funny translation again.

I think in the context of the article the quote is supposed to be referring to the gnr ballads like November Rain, but when I first read that line I literally laughed out loud.

According to gnrdaily.com, Axl is on stage rehearsing SCOM and they have video on youtube. You better watch it before Uzi Suicidal LLC steps on in, er I mean Irving...
