ITW 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Does Anybody else think that GNR should permanently replace the AC/DC cover songs with Rolling Stones cover songs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droezle Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I wanna hear them perform The end by The Doors. That would be something unexpected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaida Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 No.GN'R should stop all cover songs and stick to playing Guns N'Roses songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droezle Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 No.GN'R should stop all cover songs and stick to playing Guns N'Roses songs.Good point, done with the Appetite, Lies and Illusion songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandOla Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I wanna hear them perform The end by The Doors. That would be something unexpected.They indeed have rehearsed it, but it's been reserved as the last song of the final Gn'R gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 To be honest, I would love to see them drop LALD and Heaven's Door.At the last show, didn't they do six covers? I'd love to see them drop all six covers and replace them with six songs from the next album.BUt as to the original question. Maybe. If they are going to make covers a staple in their setlist, it would be cool if they played different ones every tour. So next tour, drop the current ones and play a few new ones. Though in all honesty, when I saw them last year, Riff Raff really put forth a ton of energy into the show. I saw surprised at how good they made the song.

The Linguini Occurrence Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Hell no, I do not want to hear those Stones cover songs.I'd much rather have the AC/DC covers replaced with GNR songs, but if I have to choose between Stones and AC/DC I pick AC/DC.

Powerage5 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Riff Raff is my favorite cover they've ever done, so no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 No. If they're gonna keep doing covers (IMO, KOHD and LALD are enough), keep it AC/DC. Nothing rocks like a good AC/DC song. They should try Stiff Upper Lip, TNT or Shoot To Thrill next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 They should bring back the acoustic set of the early 90s. It was so fuckin' cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ITW 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 The Stones have that swagger to their music that AC/DC lacks. I always thought the Hall of Fame GNR had far more in common with the Stones than they ever had with AC/DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill Devil Hill Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I don't listen to AC/DC, but I love the Stones, so I'd prefer them, but...No.GN'R should stop all cover songs and stick to playing Guns N'Roses songs.This is what should really be happening.Though I wouldn't complain if Sailing returned.

Georgy Zhukov Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Yeah because it takes three guitarists to play Keith, Mick Taylor, Brian and Ronnie songs. Dead Flowers is one of the best covers ever. As long they don't play Sympathy for the Devil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ppruks Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 LA Woman or Been Down So Long...actually fuck it..anything off the LA Woman record...one of my favorite blues records for sure...Crawling King Snake is such a perfect song for Axl...I feel like he incorporated a lot of what Jim was talking about and how he was acted as a performer into his own unique style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlsalinger Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I actually love it when bands do a couple of covers. Just wish they'd mix and match a bit more.What i'd really like to see is Axl unleash some Led Zeppelin.Talking about new songs is a completely different discussion.

Snowmass Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Bands like GnR shouldn't play covers. They have too many of their own songs they should play over some cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Sympathy for the Devil and Light My Fire would bring something to the show if it's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
