I just need to understand PC has always been my least fave song on AFD. The verses are great but that corny chorus has always been a turn off for me. It's by far my least favourite ckassic Guns track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did end up going to the show with a different co-worker who lives here. I'm actually really glad I went.. the place was packed.. even the seats behind the stage were full and the sound was really good. I forgot how much better indoor arena shows are compared to outdoor stadiums in my opinion. I was late getting in though since I didn't have tickets and the scalpers only had super shitty tickets left so it did end up costing me $120 for top row seats but still worth it... got in right as WTTJ was starting. This was prob my 14th time seeing guns n roses and I would definitely put this in my top 5. Slash was amazing last night... Axl seemed to be in a great mood! The guy I went with is just a casual fan at best who only knows a few songs and he thought it was an amazing show... and oddly he really liked Absurd! Axl sounded fine to me live... watching back some of my videos today.. meh.. just doesn't do it justice. Oh and when Axl started talking a bunch before Witicha I actually thought holy shit are they gonna play hard school.. I couldn't make out what he was saying but it got my hopes up briefly.

I need to find someone to go with other than my missus. She always looks like she wants to die half way through KOHD and I take pity on her by leaving around PC. I still haven't forgiven her for making me leave before Madagascar in 2010. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved when he would play an instrumental version on his guitar leading into it. Was a really engaging way to connect with the fans. Sad to say but in the later years Bumble upstaged Axl on that song. I also love the Bumble full instrumentals of Don’t Cry he would play at his concerts, or guitar showcases or whatever. The man has a god given gift, like him or hate him. Sucks Axl changed it to Ashba taking the lead 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an All New Show. They got rid of the stairs to the left and right of the drum kit so Slash can't go behind the drums for the NR solo. They got rid of the protrusions in the front of the stage. I think the piano was on a lift for NITL and now they just roll it out old school. There's also the pandemic themed intro video. What more can you ask for? :-) 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxlRoseCDII Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 While it’s definitely not enough to label it a new show, I love the fact that Patience and Don’t Cry are played every night. That was a really good shakeup. Both deserve to be in the set list, nightly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MrSoftie Posted August 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2021 Axl's definitely sounding stronger every show but putting vocals aside, can we take a minute to appreciate how fit he's got? He's moving around like 2010 Axl.. 11 years later. It's great to see some energy again. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskingApathy Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 16 hours ago, Live Like a Suicide said: I might sound like a heretic, but i don't think Axl really sounds like shit this tour. Sure, he's nowhere near as good as 2016/2017, but he still hits a lot of the notes he needs to, and he can keep it going well. Not bad for an old geezer. I agree, he sounded great last night. 16 hours ago, mikeman5150 said: Axl isn’t as bad as I thought on rocket queen. Not the best, but passable.

Sounds even better now that they’ve slowed down the tempo again. You hear Axl’s natural baritone singing voice again when it’s played and I think most of it sounds close to his old voice. It sounded amazing yesterday, the tempo change made all the difference. Sounds almost like the record (minus Frank's incorrect fills). 4 hours ago, Tom2112 said: Something about a friend of the band being at a recent show, and how this friends mother was in hospital and loved the song.

I thought we he started talking about it that they were going to play Hardschool or do a Stones tribute (which I'm a little disappointed that they haven't done). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klakly Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I just listened to some of Portland's videos: You're Crazy and Patience (among my favorites). And I have to say xthat I thought Axl sounded absolutely great. But maybe I'm biased because I love his low key regitro. He should use it more often. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
