TheSlashrose Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Guys, I love this forum, I've been here since 2008, are 14 long years. I respect all comments from users who are here because they like the band or a specific member. I'll wait for the shows in Brazil to draw some kind of conclusion. The road to Guns is getting shorter, I don't see a future for the band, I'm at the moment when a Guns show doesn't impress me anymore. Clearly they're a lazy band and they're a millionaire for doing these tours without anything new. I think it's the beginning of the end for them. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest….I got to see ‘the big 3’ in London 2017 and it was just absolutely awesome. Just a brilliant gig and a brilliant weekend. I’m happy with my lot in that sense. At this juncture anything is a bonus as the band moves towards its twilight years. If they only played sporadic gigs here and there then cool. If they don’t release another ‘new’ song - it is what it is. I just wish they would milk their legacy and release stuff from the archives - unreleased studio stuff….gigs….everything. If that’s all we got - I’d be more than happy with that. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Billy Cundy Posted September 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2022 They should’ve made it clear in 2016 that they weren’t releasing any new music. I think people would’ve been more comfortable with the endless tour if they were upfront that it was only ever going to be a victory lap. yeah I know they have released Absurd and Hard Skool, but they clearly can not be arsed to release music. Even when they do release it, it’s with less promotion than the average bedroom musician uploading demos to soundcloud. They should’ve just been upfront about it being a victory lap and don’t expect any more. The likelihood is slash and duff have no idea what the long term plan is, and Axl is just making it up as he goes along, behind closed doors with no involvement from anyone other than Beta, or something weird. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beginning of the end can be traced back to 2011. But honestly the beginning of the end was NITL in total. Went in half cocked and kt has just gradually lost all momentum. Outside of Axl getting his voice back into incredible shape (because new music isn't an option and I don't think I care all that much anymore for it) I'm not sure if there's anything that would excite me about gnr. They are just boring and going through the motions. Hoping they bow out sooner than later... Which is an incredible thing for me to say considering I still consider them one of my favourite bands and still listen to the back catalogue (minus Absurd and Hardskool).

I live 2 hours from Curitiba and 3 hours from Florianopolis, so I could choose between one of these two shows to go to. But I'm seriously considering not going to either. Ticket prices are very high (especially for Curitiba) and it's basically the same show I saw in 2016. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joraz Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 while i do believe the band is drawing closer to its end i also do believe slash saying they have revamped more old songs, no reason for him to lie about it so i dont think we will see nothing more from them but in terms of a creative level of new music completely i think them days are passed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSlashrose Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Axl tried to keep the band going after the original members left, he did to some extent, but not being able to release anything new must have been very difficult for him personally. It's amazing how a band that hasn't released anything surprising since 1991, that is exactly 30 years ago, still manage to fill stadiums 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jamillos Posted September 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2022 On the one hand, this is the classic post- "first show - nothing happened, wtf" kind of scenario. On the other hand, they honestly piss me off. Wasted Potential should be the name of The New Album. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recife - selling well. Goiania - almost sold out. Belo Horizonte - meh Ribeirão Preto - crickets Florianopolis - almost sold out. Curitiba - selling well. São Paulo - sold out. Porto Alegre - selling well. Argentina - sold out. Uruguay - can't tell. Chile - sold out. Peru - can't tell. Colombia 2 nights - sold out. Well, every concert except Ribeirão Preto and Belo Horizonte is doing fine. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People as yourself don't get it.. The band does not cater towards you.. The band caters towards the people who actually attend live shows.. The band isn't going to change its ways but people like yourself get all tied up in knots over something you cannot control.. This thread is supposed to be about this particular show. But as always people as yourself cannot leave there issues at the door to this thread. From your first post it become clear you have an issue with the band before they even played a note. You need to deal with that... Me, I am more then happy to pay money to see the band play in a few months in New Zealand. I know what I am in for, so happy to take the risk and there will be around 50,000 other people with me on that day. All Including myself will be simply enjoying the moment... So Rock on... jarmo? 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
