I'd definitely like to see a "Best Of" rather than single show. Maybe start with ISE from Troubadour, then have some NA 2016 shows for first half (including a song or two with Steven), get Slither and SOYL from 2018.

A best of would be the way to go for sure.. Get some of those crazy overseas crowds in there.. Maybe a little footage of the fans from each show before the songs?  Steven's songs from Cinci are a must.

Thinking about this some more now...

ISE from Troubadour

Intro to Jungle from Troubadour... then during "You gonna dddIIIIIEEEEEEEE", transition to a stadium show.

Then ChiDem from either Taiwan or HK.

Troubadour is over rated.. Prefer not to see any wheelchair performance either.. Start wit the Detroit show..

Oh... What a sudden euphoria? Where's all my favourite critical GNR "forumers"? In "Axl's Voice Thread"? For sure, show in Taiwan was an improvment for Axl, but he's still beyond even his average level of 2018. He even can't finish Civil War screams! So, basically he's still beyond the form of the period starting with the Paris show in the summer leg, when he finally reached some period success. Indeed, there were some highlights, but not enough to recognize him as "fully loaded". Moreover, they skipped TIL - suppose after performing SOYL Axl just could't handle it. Great to seem them having fun and performing better, but yet again, let's wait for more convincing performance from Axl.

I see they dropped Black Hole Sun, but they play You Know My Name over the PA after the show. I'd actually like to hear them play that themselves a lot more than I ever would have wanted to hear a GNR Black Hole Sun. Perhaps another Bond cover is a little much but I think it'd fit all of Axl's voices very well, and seems like the kind of song Slash and Fortus would really enjoy.

Man, the video that Del uploaded to his Instagram account made me fucking cry. It's still unbelievable that we have Axl and Slash on good terms again, touring the world together and sharing stuff like this... I'm 100% sure that even for them, having a whole stadium like this one singing your songs, with kids that will be all GNR fans too is very emotional. I don't know, I think that every corner on Earth deserves to witness this reunion shows. They could be better, yes, but don't tell me that this images don't give you goosebumps. This crowd made me forget about Axl's voice issues, about the whole thing being mainly a cashgrab, etc. Seeing 50/60k people wave their cellphones while singing along to KOHD is worth anything. I'm really happy that it's ending though, it was a great ride and I HOPE they do it again with a new album and a new setlist.

Just imagine being Axl, Slash or Duff in that moment. Fucking unreal. I'm sure they felt something like this too :) 

 

I thought that was a very cool clip when I saw it too.  They could make a really special DVD if they do it right with views like this and footage that really represents the crowd interaction.. Hope they do it right...
