What are your expectations for the upcoming leg?


Recommended Posts

Wish (within realistic possibilities): a few changes on the setlist, new covers in, deep cuts being swapped, old covers out, perhaps You're Crazy etc. An reasonably in shape Axl performing close to 2016 level (particularly NA leg).

Expect: the very same show, with Axl starting the tour horribly and failing to reach even the "heights" of 2011-2017.

Aerosmith had lots of variety in their sets during the last years.

Almost every tour leg they reintroduce songs they haven't played in a long time, like Nine Lives or Falling in Love during the last Euro leg. Also the opening song changes very often, from Let The Music Do The Talking to Love in an Elevator, Back in the Saddle and maaany more been done during the last 4 - 5 years.

GNR on the other hand have been playing the same set for 17 years, little variety. Long gone are the early UYI days with different songs every night.

Right but that isn't what I said.  

 

If you look at most bands they keep the setlist the same throughout the leg of the tour.  

 

It is disappointing that they have kept the same for the last 2 years now,  but keeping it the same throughout say the whole European tour isn't anything out of the norm for most bands who put on a production this big.

More songs from the 1986-1993 era!!  Not what I expect but what Should happen..  I wish Axl would try some different deliveries on songs like You Could Be Mine.  He can't sing it like he used to and that is all good but try and sing it in a different register. He has so many ranges and voices.. Why not try singing it in a register similar to Brownstone? It would be different but could still be good.

What production? Those big LED screens with pre-made videos and some fireworks here and there?

Come on, it’s not NIN, it’s not U2, it’s nothing elaborate compared to some of the incredible stuff that some bands put out there on tour.

It is a lot more choreographed than you think for camera shots etc

Would like to see guest appearances from Gilby and Matt, add more Illusion deep cuts like Locomotive, Perfect Crime, Right Next Door To Hell, etc, might do Shadow of Your Love here and there. Street of Dreams would be cool as well.

Are the band members thrilled or has it become just a regular job? 

Fuck yeah we are.  We have a blast when we are out and all together.  

I didn't mean it to sound less than enthusiastically psyched!

It's got to be taxing, though? The time zones, shows every week, the travelling, always new surroundings? How do they cope year after year?
