Popular Post James Bond Posted March 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2020 Plot twist - they perform to an empty arena but do a set list of lesser played songs and completely new material, Axl arrives in shape and ready to go, and nobody is there to record it. The rest of the tour gets cancelled. Actually, one stage hand does record it but he's not allowed to post it on YouTube because certain management suffer from TPS. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a time where everyone and their mama is cancelling and postponing their tours, for a big band like GNR to just go ahead and do it, regardless of whether those postponements are illadvised or not, just is.

The majority of the people from the original/almost original members are still there. To be fair, Black Sabbath did. Iommi was the sole member for about 3 albums late 80’s/early 90’s I think. Headless Cross is a very well thought of album. It just a ‘different era’. You either think of CD as a GNR album or you don’t - that’s it really.

Some of the guys that with were with Axl/GNR from 97-2014 had nearly 20yrs in the band. Doesn't really matter. It's more like they spent 20 years in Axl's solo band. Really, things are not always black and white, but in the GNR case it's really as clear cut as it can get. There really is a distinct line between original/remnants of GNR ad the band Axl tried to pass of as GNR. The transition in members from the originals to what we eventually had, didn't happen flowingly, where at least some played with the originals and contributed to material that formed and continued to form the reputation of GNR. Maybe things would look differently if they had released 10 albums together, but with one album to which some members didn't even fully contribute, makes it really an easy distinction. 1 minute ago, DTJ80 said: To be fair, Black Sabbath did.

Bill was there when they got a new singer. And still, many do consider Black Sabbath with Dio or anyone else as a different band. Not the real Black Sabbath. And only once Ozzy returned the real Black Sabbath was back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you all please stop, turning every thread into this childish "this is (not) GNR" bullshit?! It's so annoying and talked and argued to dead. Thx.

Which is why no-one is really ‘right’ on this subject. All personal opinion.....and for laughs....Im one of the few who prefers Dio Sabbath to Ozzy Sabbath...! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah for me the real Black Sabbath is the Ozzy version. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlRoseCDII Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Why do they want to play this show so bad during an outbreak and national emergency? Is it contractual obligations? If they’re just playing the same old setlist and it’s not to kick off anything new then what a waste...this band is so laughable, not to mention they are putting lives in danger..

I am taking a very wild guess here and saying that everyone involved with this particular show is fine with the situation. I imagine that the only thing to stop tomrrow's performance is the Mexican government. Edited March 13, 2020 by VeeR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joraz Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 All i hope is that i see the setlist before the show because if its like super bowl and theres literally 2 alts then count me out, however if something different shows up on the setlist then ill see.
