auad Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 one of the best songs, for sure. always deserves much more attention and dedication from the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eu4ic Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Never really cared for Breakdown. Locomotive I'd like. I doubt they'll play either one, and I dont blame them. They need to learn how to pull off IRS and Catcher properly before anything, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Devil Hill Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 breakdown? Wtf?Have they EVER played that sing live? And it has to be the GNR song that I have listened to least. I always skip over Shotgun Blues and Breakdown.I posted a live version on page one of this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I know Axl never liked to play it live, but it's my 2nd favorite GNR song of all time (behind Estranged)..Anyone agree that they could kill it live? I know it's not gonna happen, but it would be AMAZING!I'd LOVE to hear Breakdown again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Archer Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 breakdown? Wtf?Have they EVER played that sing live? And it has to be the GNR song that I have listened to least. I always skip over Shotgun Blues and Breakdown.Wow, Breakdown is an awesome song, dude! I always skip Shotgun Blues tho...They have MANY songs to play prior to BreakdownCIVIL WARYESTERDAYSTWATCATCHERPRETTY TIED UPLOCOMOTIVETHINK ABOUT YOUPROSTITUTEITWThey's played Catcher, prostitute and twat at some point since 2006, haven't they?But, no Civil War and that's a shame because this band with Axl in current form, would just kill it.

Kill Devil Hill Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Get in the Ring could've been such a cool song. I love the guitar in the beginning. Shame the song took the turn it did. Whoever suggested that rant to Axl oughta be shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watchman Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 My fav GN'R song ever.Bring it on.Breakdown is AWESOME and I would love to hear it from this band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefelix Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Shotgun Blues is actually a pretty cool, quick simple song with fun lyrics. It's also an Axl song so they should play it. Just prepare the oxygen tank.Shotgun > Breakdown.Wow. Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkpnt Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I so agree, they would rip that shit up!! One of my top 5 favorites of all time...estranged will more then do for now, but still fuckin hoping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Breakdown and Locomotive! I'm with you. Locomotive should be played! I would like to hear their version of that masterpiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flayer Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Like I said before though, their live show already has a ton of slower paced songs ... Maddy, Estranged, November Rain, Sorry, Patience, Don't Cry, and KOHD. Would rather see them add some faster ones first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Devil Hill Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Shotgun > Breakdown.I like Shotgun Blues, too, but whoa. O_o Or do you mean in terms of live feasibility?I mean Shotgun is a more enjoyable song for me. That said, my likings tend to change from time to time. But Breakdown is a mess to me. There are some good solos but other than that, I don't find it appealing.Yeah, when I first started listening to it, I thought it was a Southern mess, but my opinion changed after a lot of listens for some reason. I think the rhythm can throw people off, and it has a lot going on.Shotgun Blues is underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
