Tom2112 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 19 hours ago, Gordon Comstock said: Axl's I think, here's RQ from a remastered version tho: https://voca.ro/1dnGCIUs7e0Z It really sounds like he'd been touring for too long. You can tell he's trying for rasp but his voice just fails him at times during the show, and when he does get some consistent rasp like in WTTJ or Nightrain it sounds very forced, unlike the 2016 shows. That's not a pleasant listen. The band sound pretty good... well, the middle section is a bit of a mess, the Prince guitar under the talk box? I'll pass. Also the splash on the off-beat? never heard that before, cool but possibly too much when Richards doing a funk rhythm.. Richards solo should have ended much, much sooner too. Every-time I thought it was wrapping up he started again😅 Axl though, he takes the biscuit (extra value pack). Sounds awful. Punchy mix though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people who complain about it loves listening to Ritz 88 and don't say a word about the rushed songs You can get away with playing some songs at a faster tempo.. But there are clearly songs in their set that suffer from it.. Like November Rain.. You just loose the vibe.. Rocket Queen as well.. There are a bunch.. I don't think it helps Axl either during the songs he noticeably cannot keep up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slash23579 Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 So in the description it says we’ll get The Godfather theme, SCOM, and TWAT at least. Hopefully TWAT is good, I don’t really remember how that sounded in 2016. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NachoLZ Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Seems like You Could be Mine from Chile 2016 when Axl stopped the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SAU3R Posted July 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) So we have TWAT, Better, SCOM and YCBM in one video?

It was the first time they played it so it's not the best, but it's alright for a throne-era performance. Honestly I'm just glad we're getting at least one pro-shot song with Steven.

DTJ80 Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Looking back at the Selects…when the band were good they were REALLY good. Just watching OTGM from Houston again….absolutely cracking. If only a soundboard/IEM or god forbid an official release of this gig actually happened. 😭 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intro jam is just the bridge of the song. It's the groove under the part right before "I never wanted you to be so full of anger" bridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allwaystired Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 NITL version of 'Better' is phenomenal. Better than the CD era one I think. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, that still didn't stop some from saying stuff like "Slash made that song 1000x better by adding a whole new original sleazy riff to it that sounds so much more GnR!" Haha - that's pretty much what I think! It did sound better to me, whether the riff is original or not. And I say that as a big fan of the CD era of the band. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Better is my favorite GN'R song and even I missed the connection. When I heard the new intro at the Vegas show, I was like" well fuck. Way to improve what I already love Slash & Duff!". Then soon after someone on here was like "um, they didn't improve anything, they just copied the bridge to the beginning". I feel really dumb lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel really dumb lol Maybe Duff didn't really add much, but Slash made the double bends and palm-mute riff that plays before the original Robin riff kicks in. The original structure of the chord progression is surely borrowed from the original song (and if I recall correctly, Richard said the idea for the intro was from a Brain remix), but Slash made an arrangement that sounds different enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
