Babooshka Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 I didn't realise so many GNR fans hated Duff's vocals! I love his voice. It may not be right for Slither, but he's not bad. So Fine is one of GNR's best songs, and his voice fits with Axl's. I like that Guns had three singers with different and distinct, yet complimentary styles. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what I mean is you can barely hear him when he sings clean, but 02 he had a ton of confidence in that voice and sang it at full blast so it projected better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they'll play Raw Power in Iggy's hometown; it would be great if Axl sings it along with Duff, as in SI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Slash should try throw Anastasia into the mix too seen as Axls being so open minded lately I suggested Anastasia or a VR song and people laughed. It's not a GN'R song yada yada yada. Well? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way in hell is duff singing Slither. What is Scott some kind of bum who can't sing? Love duff's voice on the punk numbers but Slither? Duff would never do that to Scott. Butchering Slither would be the ultimate sign of disrespect to Scott. And duff would agree. Good thing it will never happen. Now Axl can make it his own and still sound amazing.

Swedish Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) I don't think Duff will sing Slither if they play it, As someone stated earlier in the thread it would be hard for any bass player to play that bass line and sing at the same time. Not that either the vocal melody or the bass line is super complicated, but both at the same time would be!

nn18 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I would die to hear Axl on Beggars and Hangers on or By The Sword, but Slither would be just as equally good for me. If that actually happens.......I don't want to hear Duff on it! Come on! By the way, I always thought it goes ''smell the puppies'' not ''poppies'' I was pleasantly suprised when I saw I was wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is great news - a fantastic song and a brilliant gesture from Axl. How about a bit of positivity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumikki Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) Personally, I'd get rid of The Seeker, Riff Raff, Rosie, KOHD, LALD, Chinese Democracy and TIL and replace it with Slither, Fall to Pieces, Back and Forth Again, By the Sword, Starlight, Street of Dreams and one other song from either CD or Slash's solo stuff. Preferably TWAT, Prostitute, Anastasia or Gotten (because I like the song but I hate Adam Levine and his voice) Now that would actually get me excited, despite there being no new songs. (Too bad I don't get to decide and this will never happen ) Edited June 17, 2016 by Lumikki 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I don't see the point of Rosie & Riff Raff on a GNR setlist. I'm hoping each city has a different special guest joining them on stage for a song. Axl was at the Stones 50 tour so he might be thinking of doing it.

F*ck Fear Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Keep the Chinese Democracy stuff but switch it up nightly! I'd love to hear Slash and Duff on There Was A Time. Obviously a few Velvet Revolver tunes would fucking rock! Slither, Fall To Pieces and Dirty Little Thing. And most importantly, Perfect Crime, Locomotive (they've done Coma so why not?). Replacing AC/DC and The Who covers for these would be badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maynard James Keenan Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Gravedancer is my favorite VR song and is amazing live. Doubt it would make any GnR setlist though. If you haven't heard it do yourself a favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
