Carburetta Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I think I would. Street of Dreams and Madagascar really, maybe Better at a push. They have a slightly more modern sound to them and think they'd be missed from the set list. They have been complete staples for 12 years. I think Axl would probably miss them too. Honestly the longer Axl goes on with this line up the harder becomes to reunite with the old guys. The best I think we can now hope for is CD II and continued touring.I think a reunion tour would have to come with new music for it to receive my full backing.I don't think I'd like a return to the UYI tour set list as in alot of ways it's now better. I don't think I'd bring back a So fine, Pretty tied up or Bad Obsession at the expense of an Appetite cut, these songs featured pretty heavily back in the old sets.Also this line up arguably play the old stuff better so that would also be a consideration.

batman007 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Yes, I would! I look forward more to the CD songs live than the rest of the setlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val22 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I do love Street of Dreams and Madagascar, but I would love to hear more Use Your Illusion songs if there ever was a GNR reunion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Eh, yes and no. Yes because the CD songs are some of my favorites live. No, because they wouldn't really be appropriate on a reunion tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NGOG Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 It's not like we're getting an abundance of Chinese Democracy material as it is.But of course I wouldn't like to see Slash butcher TWAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovim Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Yes I would. A bunch of great songs on Chinese. But I wouldn't want Slash, Duff, and Izzy to play those. A reunion will never happen anyway, so it's not really an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as I think that the heavy duty reliance on legacy GNR material by post 95 Axl veers into shamville too quickly. Given the ubsurb amount of time and the material that was rumoured to have been produced that BY now this band could be flying on thier own merits and material without the reliance of famous GNR.

Bruno P. Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I'd miss Chinese, Shackler's & Catcher. The others are either butchered by either Axl or Ashba anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? You don't mind when axl butchers it?An although I love Chinese democracy songs, I'd obv take a reunion over the 4 or 5 cd songs they play.

WhazUp Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I wouldn't really. They are great tunes, but IMO it is not even remotely close to having the actual guys who wrote the amazing songs in the 80's and 90's getting up and performing.

Gordon Comstock Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 SOD and Maddy haven't even been staples for a while And no, because they'd presumably be replaced by UYI songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Nova Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I think they would actually play some of the more popular CD songs, as they would play some of the more popular VR songs, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsfanoldie Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I think they would actually play some of the more popular CD songs, as they would play some of the more popular VR songs, etc.Then you're dreaming if you think Axl will play anything that doesn't have GNR's name on and Slash will play anything he didn't record on. Even though I do think that would be a great idea. Axl would never play VR material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) I just think it would be like going back in time. Theyd play more illusions and Lies. I dont think they have the intensity to play CD songs that way. Maybe TIL or The Blues but they rather do Mama Kin and Bad obsession?Personally i went to GNR show for CD songs. im a little bored of Easy n Brownstone. But they played ITW and that got my attention, then TWAT, Better, Shacklers, TIL kept it fresh. Edited August 12, 2013 by wasted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Lahey Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I imagine they would still play The Blues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonegunner Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I may be the only person who thinks this but, I would like them to put Sorry back into the set list... saw it live in 2010 and it is killer live. One of my favourite CD tracks actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screamin' Demon Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) I'd like them so include This I Love, Catcher In The Rye & There Was A Time because they sound like Guns N' Roses & I think that the original guys could do them great justice. Something like this:NightrainMr. BrownstoneIt's So EasyThere Was A TimeLive And Let DieThis I LoveDust N' BonesDouble Talkin' JiveCivil WarPatienceCatcher In The RyeYou Could Be MineNovember RainWelcome To The JungleSweet Child O' MineRocket QueenKnockin' On Heaven's DoorMy MichelleEstrangedParadise City Edited August 12, 2013 by Screamin' Demon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ak1nney Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 It would be like when KISS did the reunion tour (first time around). They would only play songs that the original band released on album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
