In the chats from 2008, I think Axl specifically said "The Blues" was just a band working title, and he wanted to save a name like that for a song that was actually based more in the blues. 

Axl: "The Blues was my first working title and I was never comfortable with it in the sense that I felt that should be used with a bluesier based song. And here in Hollywood with the walk of fame etc I had always seen that imagery in my head when I think of it. I also like the idea of the song having in effect two titles" [mygnrforum, December 12, 2008].

If I remember correctly, in an old interview with Fernando he called it: "That's Called The Blues" so maybe they used that as a working title since it's in the lyrics, then later abbreviated to The Blues. Much like Catcher, Riad, etc. are abbreviated. Sorry was "I'm Sorry" too at one point.

That kind of makes sense, to go back to that time when we were optimistic for further music beyond Chinese Democracy.

Curious that today they have lots of time, like 4:30 hours, could we see a longer show today?

With 4:30 hours I am not saying they will use It all😅

4.5 hours? wow. Although I don't think they will play everything on the alt list, but still, hopefully you guys will be getting a somewhat longer show tonight.

I doubt they'll be on time. Maybe 7.30pm onstage and 3hrs and half show.

The official twitter only says the start time - but the facebook page says 11:30 - but I also hear from this board, that there was a curfew at 11pm, so who knows? If we're lucky to have someone update us from the show, then we'll know when it starts and ends, hopefully. They played only 2 hours 30 minutes in France. The longest show they have playd in 2022 so far is 195 minutes in Poland, as far as I remember. I don't have all the complete showtimes yet...

200 minutes (3 hours 20 minutes)

/ actually I just looked at my pictures - it so happens I took one right when they went on stage and at the very end of PC. They went on stage at 7:29PM, PC ended at 10:53PM, so to be precise, Warsaw show was 204 min or 3hrs 24mins

Thanks for the info - I am not that great with math and calculating time - it gives me headache! I must remember to start my stopwatch next time when I know the show begins and ends...I never thought of that in the 15 years I've been following the setlists and put them on my fanblogs!
