jamillos Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 It’s just a few shows, guys. On the other hand, all they have to do is play one new song. Buzz, thrill & frenzy ensured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stro Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Just a few shows is why I don't expect any set changes, but like last year they kept adding festival shows and ended up adding/dropping a few songs along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stro Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 It's a short up tempo rocker that he can yell his way through and sound great like he does on Shadow. In fact, I'd probably put them back to back. For sure the order needs to be adjusted a bit, I might even say do Shadow/RL in the spot where Estranged is now, do Patience/Dont Cry earlier in the set, and do Estranged as the encore while the stage is still dark. Ultimately it doesn't really matter, people at the shows don't give a shit about the set list but it might be interesting to see if it changes the energy and flow a bit.

Gordon Comstock Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I doubt they'll add any songs for this festival run, if anything I expect them to cut the set back to about 2 hours. Austin City Limits has a maximum set time of about 2 hours 15 minutes, I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LlamaRenegade Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Is there a performance of TWAT where Slash doesn’t completely butcher the solos? It’s hard to find one with good Axl vocals but I swear I’ve never heard Slash nail the solos. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Nygma Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Will Slash & Duff put there infinite solo careers on hold when it comes the time to record new music & put another Guns record out? Just seems like they are set in a system of doing stuff, I get the guys don't like to be at home much, but will they reorganize their priorities when its time to drop another album?

We’ve had enough about their solo careers. It would be annoying as a fuck if they keep working and promoting their solo stuff while working on a GNR new album, IDK.

Similarly, i think they would keep Slither rather than introduce Fall to Pieces. Just easier that way. If they must keep doing covers though, i would like them to reintroduce Marseilles. I hope they add dust in the wind as a cover instead of Layla/wish you were here before November Rain 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm genuinely curious, given they already play Yesterdays, what's the point of playing another band's song that is basically just a rewrite of a GnR tune?

I like Slash's interpretations of most of the Chinese tunes even if I prefer the original studio versions. For There Was A Time, Slash tried to keep it close to how Bucket played it, but he plays bits n' pieces of it, sections of it that are not in the order that they were recorded. It's kinda messy. I think if he actually put some time into listening to the outro and playing along to it while not on tour, he could have made it sound really cool. He doesn't seem to remember the solo well enough to do it justice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would be interesting to hear, as it's the most GNR song VR put out, and hearing it with Axl would seem right, or at least cool. Especially as it started its infancy as a GNR song anyway. I'd rather hear them do FTP than Yesterdays even if just for the novelty of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn crew Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 FTP is song that I listen almost 24/7. You can feel genuine song based on real life. Like every song on AFD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just he's not used to have to play solos which were composed by other guitarists. Bumble took the time to actually learn how to play the outro and it sounded great after Chinese came out. (still lacked Bucket's tone and feel though) Overall, I thought Slash did a decent job with most of the Chinese solos. Did a great job playing Chinese Democracy the song which I think is his favorite from the record. I've heard really good versions of Sorry, he improvised the This I Love solo and overplays it but again I've heard versions which were cool, like he Godfathere'd it. Catcher is a little messy but not bad, Madagascar sounds fine with Slash (even came up with a little riff for it as well) and for Better he came up with his own solo for it which fits even if it isn't as good as Robin's original imo. There Was A Time is the only one where he went full lazy on Bucket's outro. The short Robin solo in the middle of the song is played nicely. Prostitute sounds powerful with Slash.

rumandraisin Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 That's genius and completely bizarre, I'd love to hear All pull off some of the bond songs. Thunderball would be a good one. Why are we discussing this... In reality, a new track will leak some point next year. Maybe a new best of next year with a new track. A new album? Within 5 years, slim chance though but I can see them getting something out by 2025. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't count on it. SMKC will definitely be coming around again once Slash has a break. He loves that band too much to leave it. Now, if GnR will actually record and try to get something out on a reasonable timeline then he'll do that but I don't think he wants to wait around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive always listened to these and always though "oh, theres where Jungle comes from", today I was listening to it and decided to check on the webs to see what people had to say about it and to my surprise, didnt find anyone talking about the similarities lol Im I going crazy and theres no similarities at all? I've listened to Exciter a few times this evening. You're right it does sound similar. I think the ending to Jungle has a couple of extra notes. I've seen a few members compare Paradise City to Zero The Hero by Black Sabbath. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the bridge is very similar to the Zero the Hero one, I believe even Slash talks about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
