Black Sabbath Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Here is the perfect resolution.IF YOU ARENT AT THE SHOW,DONT COMPLAIN.Though I agree with that to an extent, I still believe (wish) the band would change the setlist up more, and given that they said it would be changed up more, I personally can't blame people for complaining about it.

Tyler Drama Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I can complain about the five shows I went to over the past year, which were all basically the same. Chinese, Jungle, Easy, Brownstone, blah blah blah... It was funny, cuz I would shout the name of the next song going to be played, and they would start to play it. And everyone around me would be like "HOW ARE YOU DOING THAT?!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sleeping Like An Angel Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) Axl said TWAT was too hard for him to sing all the time basically. He'd have to work on it. Edited November 3, 2012 by Sleeping Like An Angel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same thing when I went to multiple scorpions shows in the late 80's they basically toured the World Wide live CD. I will never understand the hang up with the set list. It is 22-26 songs long. I really don't understand why people obsess over it. I understand people want new music, and I guess since they don't release much, people are hoping they release it at the shows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 They should never play Don't Let It Bring You Down. Ever again.I haven't heard the ones they've done in Vegas but I agree.

sascha Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) Axl said TWAT was too hard for him to sing all the time basically. He'd have to work on it.In the Eddie Trunk interview he said he was also struggling with YCBM but I give him that, the song is old. But TWAT? Axl is probably the only singer writing songs for himself out of his own range AND refusing the basic concept of re-arranging material at all. It's a shame because TWAT is a really good song. Would love to hear where it goes live, most of the songs just stagnate and stuff like TWAT isn't even brought to life at all. He writes all these awesome tunes and then it's put on a CD never to be played again. Crazy. Edited November 3, 2012 by sascha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More rotation songs from the Illusions as well as Chinese would be cool. It'll be interesting to see how this tour progresses.We shouldn't expect a totally different show though, beacuse as it is today, they are playing pretty much all their biggest hits and they will always stay in the set. They can't risk having the majority of the audience leaving the concert disappointed because they didn't play some of their favourites.But just to give an example of different mindsets. I was reading some reviews on ticketmaster, and quite a few of them mentioned Live And Let Die as the highlight of the show they attended. You probably won't find many on the boards with the same opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less? I know it's hard to determine. But, how much they should cater o the hardcore fans should depend on how large that percentage is.Ali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom1447 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 wondering if they'll play TWAT at all during thisresidency.Of course not, it's a fan favourite, why should they play it?define fan favourite. Maybe a favourite of the people currently in this thread, but lets be honest a lot of gnr fans wont even know twat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThinkAboutYou Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 The second vegas show is definitely not like the first vegas show because DJ Ashba plays "Mi Amor" today instead of "Ballad Of Death"!Just goes to prove they don't follow a setlist I was blindsided by Mi Amor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtydane Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Id really love to c them mix it up a bit. How amazing would it b if they opened with nightrain and threw jungle in mid set like the old days. That wouldn't even require them playing a Nrw or rare tune.
