  • 2 weeks later...

Predictions for Golden Gods:

- Setlist will be WTTJ, Better, SCOM, TIL, PC

- Axl will sound awful apart from on TIL, where he won't sound too bad

- The Disguise™ will never come off

- Mixed response from the crowd (I don't expect outright booing, people will be too "in the moment")

- Damage control from Jarmo/TB, Axl had to run away from the cops to get to the ceremony, strep throat, Slash poked pins in the throat of an Axl voodoo doll

- Rick Florino will write a review praising the performance and Axl at ArtistDirect.com

- Comments sections of social media sites and Blabbermouth will be full of comments damning the new band (especially Ashba) and asking for a reunion

- Axl Rose Disaster Part III will make the rounds on YouTube

- An embarrassing new photo of Axl will replace Yellow Raincoat Axl as a meme and "Knockin' on McDonald's Door" shall see a return

- Vegas sales will suffer consequently

- I will cry.

I'll still try and keep hope up beforehand and collect tears in the hope that I can use them as lubricant, but I doubt that I'll have anything to jerk off to from that performance.

At least this time we know that it's going to be bad. So no frustration at all.

I can't believe I thought Rio '11 was going to be awesome, but I don't think I can be blamed after the '09-'10 tour.

It's my own stupid fault for thinking Bridge School would be good, with or without strep throat.

And I'm a fucking idiot for booking a flight to Buenos Aires believing he'd sound good on this tour.

Here's how I see it, Option 1)You can always skip the show and just enjoy Buenos Aires! Personally I'd look into selling it and maybe trying to cancel the trip altogether... the problem is Axl is completely unpredictable... he can be complete shit for a full tour and then bang, he plays a solid show, you might just miss that one gig however unlikely it is.

Option 2) getting absolutely wasted and just enjoying the show without paying too much attention.

Option 3) Martyrdom. bring a nice sign from MyGnR and say "Axl, get your shit together" or something to the effect, you might need a few people to hold the message if everyone here gets to throw in there 2c.

Option 3 is my personal favourite, we might get a "hey mr security man!" type rant, he gets a direct message from real fans not brainwashed morons who think rainbows shoot out of his ass, and it might piss him off enough to put on a decent show... everyone wins, but you are a martyr and you will be escorted out subsequently missing the show.

The choice is yours, choose wisely.

Option 3 would probably be most noble, but option 2 is most tempting :P

It's the cheapest I could ever fly to Buenos Aires and I've always wanted to go, so I'm not gonna cancel the flight. I might be tempted by an offer to sell the concert ticket if someone wants it, but I doubt it since I don't think it's sold out.

How very disappointing :D I'd love to go there sometime so I don't blame you, I might use that trip on another band though. I'm sure you'll have a great time, your expectations won't be high so whatever they do will be a bonus, if it's bad you expected that, if it's good! then even better.

You will have a blast at the concert, even if Axl voice is bad.

How long are you going to Buenos Aries for Amir? Sure it will be a cool trip.

1st-8th April :) Yeah, I'll make the most of it, was originally planning on spending most of the 6th queuing up, but now I'll just explore the city some more that day and turn up to the concert after doors open, preferably after having a good steak and a few drinks.

Happy Birthday to me, I'll get the Axl Rose Disaster: Part 3! :lol:

God I hope they don't play Sweet Child...

Aren't you turning 21, or is it 22? At least now you'll be able to legally drown your sorrows in booze.

Jungle

New song Axl sees Slash in the crowd

Paradise Riot

Round 2!!!

;)

Has it been confirmed how long they'll play? I thought it was around 20 minutes... I think CD/Jungle/Better or TIL/PC is the most likely. Add SCOM if they have time.
