Yes, most definitely. I downloaded them in '08 from Napster/Kazaa/Dc++ whatever was it back then, and decided not to go buy it, and haven't listened to it since. There are multiple threads/topics here & in Reddit about fe. Catcher, and wishing them would play Madagascar. I kinda came to a conclusion that if some people in a forum, that consists mostly of die hard 87-93 Guns fans, wanna hear that stuff, there must be more outside these boards. It also seems like people are talking about CD left-over materials or the CD2 or even remixing the original CD a lot down here. Just can't help myself not thinking that if there wouldn't be people who liked CD enough to hear those songs on a reunion tour, why would they even consider of ever wanting to listen something that's been vaulted in the process of making that album? Just my two cents on what I've been reading. I'm completely fine with switching all CD songs to UYI songs if I may. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Słash Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 My net was off all day, so well it seems they played Catcher, I watched the clip and Slash's take on the solo sounds much better, I really like Slash's tone. Hoping Slither to be next.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Axl Rose aka God Posted July 21, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2016 The posts in this thread are a bummer. We've got Guns N' Fucking Roses firing on all cylinders, performing some kick ass shows, and people are arguing about Chinese Democracy songs, whether members are good in the band, wanting other members back. Shut the fuck up. Go to a show and stop bitching. July 19th was the greatest night in my life, GN'R was fantastic, and coming into this thread expecting reviews, photos, videos and being met with "Well they should probably play more of what I want and less of what you want" is fucking lame. 28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passenger57 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Random comment - was thinking today it would be cool to hear 'Bad Obsession' or 'Beggars and Hangers On' I love it when Slash plays slide guitar. Axl would sound so bad ass on 'Beggars' 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Throatrake Posted July 21, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2016 Went to both shows. 2nd night was much better IMO. I'll tell you one thing, people were very, very happy to see this band again!. If Axl could somehow regain his mid range rasp and add a little more volume to it, he'd start a whole new Axl obsession for this generation. The crowd cheered every loud, raspy scream he belted ; ie Jungle, LALD, OTGM, ISO The fierce mid range voice is just not there anymore.. Anyways, Axl appeared to be in a better mood last night and as usual, put in a sh*t ton of effort into the performance. Guy just delivers like no other. If the '06 vocals were happening right now, GN'R would take over once again! Don't get me wrong, this reunion is amazing, people LOVE it and I'm extremely grateful for being able to see them again. These are great days were living! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well said ! It's ridiculous as fuck the incessant moaning and nit picking by those who scrutinise Periscope on a nightly basis. Periscope is not a place to be watching live music on expecting it to be as if you were at the venue. The shows 'rock' , we have 3-4 out of 5 original members but let's moan about a set list and invent fantasy role playing scenarios whereby we try to predict how people they have never met think and feel, clueless. Movie of the day- Idiocracy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if she isnt used in a bunch of the songs in the set, she IS NEEDED for other parts of the set...so just can all this garbage about her already 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakey Styley Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Catcher was awesome, probably the second best performance of it ever. I love how they're just cycling through CD. This band is going to kill SOD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night I could see him walk up to the horns and pick something up, and when he pressed his thumb in the horns sounded. I thought it was pretty cool because I had also figured it was done by a computer or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yikes, my bad on that...but still, you know she is contributing parts for sure...even if she is just playing chords on the synth in some songs it is adding to the full sound that is guns n roses. If you go back to 1991/2/3 clips there are alot of times where the songs ( although still amazing ) sounded thin or empty in spaces 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are loads of people who are fans of that particular album. Just to clarify: I'm definitely not one of them. So did Contraband actually sell more copies than Chinese Democracy?

I saw them last week at this time aND it seemed I was the only one to stand and sing for all the songs. Should have saw my face when they debuted Sorry.. I wish they'd replace TIL with another chinese song because it has so many good songs like you said July 14th was one of the greatest days, they can play whatever they wanted and I'd be a giddy fan for life no matter. I was most excited for better, Coma and Chinese Democracy I guess no one really likes the chinese songs or melissa like I do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish you were here wqs popluar. My wife went with and she isn't a gnr fan, she knows some but she was impressed. I don't know why people complain about CD songs. It's a guns n roses album, just like deep purple plays songs from every lineup.

I am going to be WAY to pumped to sit down even if my feet/back are killing me. I got a seat just so I can rest during the guitar solos but yeah the rest of the time I am sure as hell going to be singing and standing to it all including slow songs like TIL.
