blake-a-mania Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Okay, so with all of the setlist complaints going around at the minute and people talking about CD2 etc, it got me thinking.If CD2 came out, and featured songs like Jacky Chan Soul MonsterBlood In The WateretcLets say 14 songs for arguments sake.what songs should be dropped from the current setlist? Jungle? Rocket Queen? Sorry?Guns n Roses is already going out there and playing probably the biggest rock show night after night with 33/34 songs being played, so what do you think?

blake-a-mania Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 jungle ain't getting dropped. most of chinese would be dropped i'd imagine, with the exception of maybe 2-3 songs max. maybe one song chopped from appetite and two chopped from illusions.Thats what I would imagine, I am trying to figure out though what it would take to stop the majority on here from whining all the time, they are currently complaining because they want new material, 6 months ago it was because they didn't like the previous new material, next it will be whatever is dropped...

Chinese would be dropped in favour of the golden classics "everybody" wants to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThinkAboutYou Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Keep the hits and do like 3 from Chinese and 3 from the followup. Keep the setlist slightly different night to night 1 or 2 song's different each night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulMonster Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I am trying to figure out though what it would take to stop the majority on here from whining all the timeProbably nothing. I do enjoy the fact that they seem to stay here at mygnrforum, though, and if we could lure them into a dedicated "endless complaining section" then that would be even better.

ThinkAboutYou Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I would say some more variety in the setlist may reduce whining but nothing would completely stop it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maynard Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 hey, if you don't like certain posters, why don't you just ignore them? if their opinions get you so mad, ignore the shit they post, for god's sake.maybe the mods should create the axl worshipping section where no negativity would be allowed, that would make you wet your pants, i guess.

I'd drop a couple of AFD tunes and the Illusions covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps people choose to post here because they enjoy some criticism but feel that now with all the outcasts coming back it has tipped over?

luciusfunk Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) I'd hope they finally drop Out Ta Get Me. I hate that song, but it's better than Anything Goes.I wouldn't want LALD or KOHD dropped, but maybe cut the time on KOHD.

Bobbo Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) If there's a new album couldn't they just rotate some songs in and out? Drop the covers, even the UYI ones, rotate other songs in and out, and maybe keep it 50% classic, 50% nu. That's possible, would be respectable, and would make me respect this as an outfit that can stand on their own. Much more than I do now. As long as they got Jungle, SCOM, PC, Patience, YCBM and NR in there somewhere, they can put songs on rotation. Shouldn't be that hard to figure out.I just don't see it happening though. I personally highly doubt we'll ever see another officially released gnr album of new material. We'll see... Edited June 12, 2012 by Bobbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since some people like change, would change that does not affect them still make them less likely to whine?Perhaps this discussion may be a little easier with a little organization. Each of GNR's three main albums have had 7 staples in the set lately:JUNGLE / IT'S SO EASY / BROWNSTONE / ROCKET QUEEN / SCOM / NIGHTRAIN / PARADISELALD / ESTRANGED / YCBM / NOVEMBER RAIN / DON'T CRY / CIVIL WAR / KNOCKIN'CHINESE / SORRY / SHACKLER'S / THIS I LOVE / BETTER / STREET OF DREAMS / MADDYSo, assuming this mysterious new album would have 7 songs played from it, what 7 songs from the 21 listed above would you remove to make room for the 7 new songs?My personal choices would be:BROWNSTONE / ROCKET QUEEN / DON'T CRY / KNOCKIN' / SORRY / THIS I LOVE / MADDYI'd replace this I love with s.o.d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
