Adazybear Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) To answer topic question, i would love one in a million (i know will never happen which is kinda understandable)Wouldnt anybody else be happier with a shorter set?Why? My reasons,Guns are notoriously late. This is expected and fine with me. It adds to the excitement and rush to the first couple of songs but makes it difficult for travel, work, or perhaps a younger crowd (like 11-12 with parents) to get home and just stamina. Shit, these tickets aint cheep and not everyone can lead the Rock n Roll life style these guys can (and deserve, but not at fans expense)I would rather have songs like T.W.A.T, Rocket Queen, Estranged, Dont Cry to be a MUST in the setlist and lose a couple of solos, forget the piano solo and cetainly lose a few others. Get rid of Knocking and Live n Let Die and replace with ANY 1 track from Chinese Democracy.Play 2 hours of what peaple want.....IMO i think Knocking On Heavens Door is in there cos its an EASY 10-15 minutes to fill. Its like having 5 mins of Facebook or Whatever at work just to stretch the day out.I would rather see and hear 1 hour and 45 minutes of dynamite than 2 hours 30mins of "ups and downs"Im sure Axl would favour this.....i bet the band could, and would, play for 5 hours happilly. Anyway, just my thoughts. I know its only my 3rd-4th post but hey, i love you all and the band.Peace and LoveAdam Edited October 5, 2011 by Adazybear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trqster Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 For sure Estranged & Civil War are the most popular options for the fans, so they should stuck with those two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I don't see the current band ever doing any obscure UYI stuff, so I guess by default I'd go with Civil War. Would also love to see Silkworms and Oh My God return at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spirit Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I don't see the current band ever doing any obscure UYI stuff, so I guess by default I'd go with Civil War.Being the anniversary year of the albums, I think there's a bigger chance now than previous years. We got Estranged already... I don't know where you draw the line at 'obscure', but it would be nice to hear Dead Horse, Locomotive or Don't Damn Me.

PerthGNR Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Any trainspotters notice he fucked up the last lines of estranged the other night? 'and the waves get so high' instead of 'and all my friends thought I was high'? Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TiedHands Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 The ONLY older material I'd have any interest whatsoever in hearing would be 'Civil War', 'Coma', and 'Locomotive'. They should seriously drop 'Knockin' on Heaven's Door'. It goes on for waaaay too long. There's no reason whatsoever that they shouldn't be playing AT LEAST 8-10 'Chinese Democracy' songs, not to mention 'Oh My God', and if they're so dead set on covers, throw in 'Sympathy For the Devil'...

Guest ben9785 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 "Estranged" was nice, and if they play it occasionally it would be welcome I'm sure..I think the focus should remain on new songs though.. Not comparing the likes of "Rhiad & The Bedouins" to the quality of the older songs but it is more relevant to the band *now* and I think it would be better to see that, "If the World", "Scraped' and the other CD music played more often.No most of the audience won't care about new songs but if they believe in what they are doing they should push it out there to the audience.Wouldn't it be more pleasing for a GN'R concert review to highlight how great a new song sounded rather than a new rendition of "Civil War"..

They should play the videoOn the big screen. Civil War and Yesterdays next?Bumblefoot did.Did I see dolphins on the video wall during Estranged, or did I dream that?I think it was a dream anyway..
