Oh my god you GN'R people and your There Was A Time! There was a cock

hahahahahaha.

Seriously, that's the best song from Chinese Democracy. They really should play more often.

It's not only the best song from Chinese Democracy. It is the greatest song by Guns N' Roses and the most amazing song in Rock music history.

+1.

gah so what, it's a travesty this song isn't played...axl should just stand still the entire song and sing the fuck out of it...it rocks

It's not a matter of standing still. He hits some high fucking notes in this song (particularly the F5#, a ridiculously high note for men). This is a note that can easily blow out vocal chords. Only time this song might work is before the encore so he can rest of up his voice or maybe before a long guitar solo/jam.

Another option is to just tune down a half step to make it easier to sing. Most artists who do this I tend to give a hard time, but I would make an exception in this case considering how difficult it be to hit that note and still sing afterward.

It's a shame it isn't played more often because it really is the best song on the album and the most "Guns N' Rosie" like song. I was lucky enough to hear it in 2010 at the Hamilton show, hoping they may want to dust it off once again for this year's show.

Cheers,

Andrew

Koreans went crazy once the intro started!!!

Can someone upload the Hamilton one? What other performances are there? The other on in 2009 (Tokyo?) the end intro is cut from the YouTube clip...

I've only got the FLAC file of Hamilton off-hand, but I'm sure someone around here has an mp3 handy...

All performances of TWAT to date:

2006-05-12 - New York, NY

2006-05-25 - Madrid, Spain

2009-12-12 - Taipei, Taiwan

2009-12-13 - Seoul, South Korea

2009-12-19 - Tokyo, Japan

I say we all tweet @gunsnroses, @bumblefoot, @axlrose, @djashba, @tommy_stinson, @richardfortus, and @flebeis to play There Was A Time in East Rutherford. And post all over the GN'R Facebook. Maybe if we all just beg for the song at a SPECIFIC show, they'll play it. Probably not, but it's worth a shot.
