SAU3R 826 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I'm happy.. The first official GNR live footage since Appetite for Democracy! Even though it took them a couple of weeks, I'm glad that we finally get something from this band that has to do with music.. Plus it's free, so they really do this for the fans and not for their wallets. Thanks @Fernando @Dexter 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
2020_Intensions 391 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 It just does not make any sense to pick 2019 as opposed to 2016/2017 ..... I understand '19 being the latest leg but is that really how you want to showcase this tour? Lol NOTHING they do makes sense Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Basically what we’ve wanted all along is a follow up to Live Era with the best performances from the tour, not reminders of Axl embarrassing himself and a set list rammed with covers and jams. It would be nice if this was a band that could put out a series of full shows uncut, but it isn’t. We’ve already moaned about the flaws in them while watching the Periscopes. I agree with this, which is why I am baffled they are doing recent shows. Oh well, I'll still watch Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If this video was a one-off, it wouldn't be SLC 2019.. I'm actually quite happy that they choose shows from the whole NITL tour, not just from 2016 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post Tom-Ass 7,749 Posted May 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2020 I like the idea of selects.. They honestly aren't collectively good enough to release a whole show. Releasing the "select" best performances sounds like the right move to me. I already shared the link with a couple people. I really hope they do this right and release something awesome.. As flawed as this band/lineup is I still want them to look good. Fingers crossed. 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unless its just the full show condensed down to 13 minutes It's actually a full show at 10x speed. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Why do people not understand that some of us aren't happy with just getting something? I skipped on seeing this band twice since 2017 because he doesn't sound good to my ears. I wasn't willing to pay for it but that doesn't mean I'm ok with it because it's free. Is it so fuckinh hard for this fucking band to just put something of quality out? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YOUCOULDBEMINE. 517 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Axl hasn't sounded good since 2016. I'd take anything from 1987-2010 or some shows from 2016 over anything past that. The UCAP shows from 2012(?) are also fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, 2019 and 2020 performances would be whack. This should be from the 2016 NA leg Shhh! Don't express your opinion around here or you will be vilified for it.

Can anybody tell how the sound quality is? Yea i hear the sound but i want to know.. is this kind of post mixed thing or just the live mixing? Sounds like the live mixing, it's weird, Slash isn't in the right channel, as usual. Who knows, should be fine though 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sweersa 655 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Maybe they took so long to crop or digitally alter pre reunion Axl performances with Slash and Duff's playing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

See that's where I wouldn't complain because it's actually something different (and most likely of quality). Yes, the video hasn't aired yet I get that. However, I havent been pleased with Axl's voice for the last three years and know how this is going to sound. So I still have to be happy? I call bullshit on that.

Popular Post DieselDaisy 17,703 Posted May 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2020 If would be much better if it was a full show, but credit where credit is due if Fernando has put together something decent here. It is certainly a step in the right direction. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I call bullshit on that. Well, based on the snippet on Instagram, I think Axl sounds very good. Believe me, I'm as frustrated as anyone with getting strung along about new music only to see bullshit t-shirts and storybooks and video takedowns on youtube and everything else. I'd love nothing more than this band to act like a band and not a nostalgia act. It's very discouraging that my favorite band just doesn't give a fuck about new music. But for today, seeing a few songs on youtube, cool. I wish they would have done it sooner. I can't wait. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I understand why we on here would want a full show but I also get why they're drip feeding this content (especially as it's the first proper releases of the reunion lineup). I'd guess that once we've built up a whole show of these selects we might get full shows. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is it so fuckinh hard for this fucking band to just put something of quality out? I usually agree with you that Axl has sounded weak since 2016... BUT, if they're gonna upload stuff from 2017-2020, then songs like Easy, CD and DTJ are what they should be uploading. At least Axl still sounds pretty good on the lower-register songs. So, assuming this is just the 'first step', I'm totally fine with them using 2019 recordings for these songs. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
