You Ain't The First Bad Obsession Don't Cry So Fine (instead of a Stooges cover) Or even covers that people associate with GNR like Down on the Farm, Since I Don't Have You, or even Sympathy for the Devil. I wish they had a little more faith in their own classic material. I find it funny that Axl said they have a new song. And if you don't like they're gonna play it anyway. In my case, I don't like half the set list. It's not just about one song. Does he really believe we're pissed off because of ONE fuckin song?

Shorten KOHD and you can fit all of them in there. And then rotate some of those other alts. Yeah those are good choices too. I don't see why they can't do both Patience and Don't Cry. As much as I love DH, they have butchered it every time they played it. I think they could probably do a decent version of PTU though, not sure why it hasn't been played. PTU is definitely more popular than a few songs in the current set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad Wichita was dropped and bummed The Seeker came back last night. Very happy I didn't get The Seeker in Detroit, but I was very happy to hear the new Guns N Roses single. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
