Free Bird Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 What was it like in the past? If I'm remembering correctly every time they played something new during soundcheck they didn't play it on the same show but on the next, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caedo Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Axl always sounds good on the lower songs, if they play Slither it will kick ass 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect Crime was rehearsed in Lima 2016 (without Axl) but never got played. There's video of it. I'm sure they'll play it tomorrow. In the past, those soundchecks were maybe the first time they rehearsed that song. Slither may have been rehearsed during the entire last month.

Last year they had soundchecked Black Hole Sun before the Slane Castle show (which was the first of the Euro leg after a long break) and they played it right away.

Caedo Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 I can't see why Axl would bother singing it in soundcheck if he didn't intend on singing it in the show 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralphelmo Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 This song is easy to sing and easy to play, I also expect them to play it right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also on the soundcheck for the first show in Vegas, they rehearsed Coma and played it the same day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 If Axl was singing on it at soundcheck then it’s 99% going to be played live. Coma and Catcher both were added the same way. Axl wouldn’t bother showing up if he wasn’t gonna sing it, ala Oh My God or Perfect Crime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Slash and Duff want VR tracks to be heard live again to a wide audience then Axl is their best option. Personally I think it's a song that may sit well vocally with him. Hopefully we will find out tomorrow. I am glad they are going to play it. I wanted them to play it in 2016. My enjoyment of it will be strictly on the instrument part. I try to tune out Axl's voice as much as I can as it is absolutely cringe worthy. It is a great song and I will be looking forward to it.

GNRfanMILO Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 He won't. He will sound like last year or even worse. But Slither will be huge. I hope they start playing a little with the setlist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F*ck Fear Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Being Slither is sung in a lower register, it should sound good. I hope someone captures a good video of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratam Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 2 hours ago, Blackstar said: It's a gesture of acknowledgement and respect for Slash's and Duff's work outside GnR on Axl's part, also a gesture in return for them playing CD songs. Given what had been said between them for years and Axl's idiosyncrasies, it's a big step for him. He had agreed to include Slither in the alt. setlist when the tour started, but probably he didn't feel ready yet. Agree every word , nice homage to his bandmate's 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metallex78 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 While this seems like a cool thing, once again, Guns N’ Roses avoids this opportunity to play their own rarely played songs, or heaven forbid, a brand new song. I’m hoping when they do actually play the gig, they mix it up more than just adding a cover of Slither. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't black hole sun also rehearsed with Axl and added to the setlist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
