Here goes: to fernando, beta, whoever runs this shit show marketing this crap you should be ashamed. Months of seeing hints, flyers and what not in Times Square, down town LA about appetite turning 30 and this is what you dish up! It's actually worse than not doing anything at all. They make mugs of the fans, like us who follow this band every single day. They promote it as being special but in reality they dish up the same old tripe. They've squandered every opportunity to really give this album and the fans the celebration it's deserved. ill cop Izzy and Steven not being on this tour (reluctantly) but this was a chance to do something special, and all they've done us turn up with the same shit they've fed us for 15 months now! It's embarrassing. I mean, if this is a case of not being on speaking terms with Izzy... Fix it. Did Axl not learn anything from the slash situation??? Doesn't look like it. And Steven? Well a blatant dislike for him by AXL isn't good enough either. It's a piss poor effort to dish this shit up like another show. That's one thing... But promoting it as special and then making mugs out of everyone is actually worse. Couldny muster a fucking interview for 15 months, couldn't be bothered to throw the fans a bone in that time, but happy to take the $188 bucks for a cat c ticket in a stadium 100 metres from the stage for show after show to line their pockets. It's embarrassing to say the least, duff and slash are bigger sell outs than I ever thought they were, they've been complicit in this crap too. Anyway, fuck it... What's the point. We are going to get 12 months more of NITL and then some sort of version of the same or nothing, and that will be it. anyone who thinks new music is coming needs a doctor, get checked out, these pricks can't even play appetite front to back on its 30th birthday, and by the time it's 40, kiss it good bye because these guys will be sitting under a palm tree counting their cash! What a missed opportunity. rant over Making way too much sense, Tadsy. Half the nuts here actually believe this is bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Live Like a Suicide Posted July 21, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2017 I don't get why some people are complaining. What we got was in line with the tour, and was to be expected by those who did not hype themselves up about unsubstantiated points about Steven/Izzy or the band playing the entire Appetite discography. We all know Guns has a precedence of not living up to whatever crazy expectations fans have at any given time, and for what it's worth, it was actually a great show from the band. They done their jobs well, and it resulted in one of the better concerts of the NITL tour. I'm glad we got a great recording of the show. The complainers should learn to temper their expectations and not fall into the trap of getting hyped too easily. The band shouldn't be torn apart for doing their jobs great. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliehoodger Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Grade - Probably B-, C+ if I'm gonna be 100% honest. Started off real good, in the middle axl lost it went full helium for a while, songs that he was able to use non-rasp worked well, band was musically on fire, Seeker was actually one of the best in the set list (every one was firing on all cylinders on that one), no surprises/normal NITL set list which is, let's be honest with ourselves (and in the face and the eve of the anniversary if their FUCKING DEBUT 30 years ago) is a tad disappointing. But I love this band, always will and we just got a live concert to like or dislike in the books. Final note - if there is literally not ONE WORD from anyone in the GNR camp tomorrow about the importance of the day, then I'm actually going to be pissed. Night yall.

Gunner927 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Well, I enjoyed it. Of course, I wish they would've done AFD in full (or at least something like You're Crazy/Think About You), but it is what it is. Keep your expectations low, and you'll be satisfied. Axl kinda fell off after RQ/YCBM (which I thought he actually did quite decent on, compared to some performances), but he picked it up again from SCOM through the encore. Glad we'll be able to get such a good soundboard out of it. On to the lame-ass security in St. Louis! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Min just really bummed. The sensible part of me knew this was going to happen. I didn't think izzy and Steven would actually be there, I think it's a disgrace they weren't but I knew it was long odds. What I am more bummed about is that there was no difference between this show and any other. There was no effort on GNR's part to differentiate this show at all. I thought they might have at least played appetite front to back. For example: Then, they could have done something different like play patience or don't cry acoustically and thrown in a few others from their back catalogue that haven't been seen so far this tour to make this show stand out. But nope, we get a play by play NITL show. And bs yeah the show itself might have sounded great but that's the minimum expectation for any fan paying BIG money in my book anyway, I promised myself I wouldn't be a whinging c*** haha but if anyone wants answers on this band being creative ever again, tonight you got your answer!

As per his rock n roll hall of fame speech, Duff wants you to know that he's here doing this because of the fans and because he's heard your voice around the fucking world. And he honors you...and his bank account. Thank you Duff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kittiara Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Well, I shared my view before the show, about how it would have been great to have something extra special for the anniversary. But I did very much enjoy what we got. I thought it was a good show, and I am grateful to @Gibbo and GN'R SudAmerica for streaming it. Thank you. Definitely bed time now. Nearly 7 am. Night all! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwiguns Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Yep out come all the upset posters, who seem to think it's everyone else is to blame as there dreams and wishes did not come true. Blame band members for selling out, blame the band for providing for their families and paying their morages, blame band management, blame Eddie, blame Frank etc. Dont no way people take it personally as it does nit affect there life.... If it's so bad i.e axls vocals, the way the band is managed and promoted, future show and tour sales or the relationships of past or present members as it will only affect these people personally and financially.
