But yea seriously they should be debuting it this show. Hope he can perform it OK. "How's this for a cellphone recording ya bunch of downloading motherfuckers" I think he'll sound find on it, the verses should be solid and he'll probably scream his way through the chorus since he apparently is only gonna sing the 'all alone' part.

Blackstar Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Maybe (hopefully) he'll sing the lower vocal layer on the chorus (plus the "all alone" part in harmony with Melissa) and there will be a backing track for the higher layer, kind of like what they do with Locomotive.

I was just thinking the same, now that we know about the lower vocals, that playback part makes sense, no way he was going to let a backing track do all the job 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hoping no Mickey falsetto verses and use of low register or even his evil voice if needed. All alone as screams I'm happy with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubted he'd use a backing track without singing over it, too, so I thought that maybe it was played at soundcheck just as "help" for Duff's and Melissa's backing vocals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as pushing dates on such short notice, there’s a lot more work into doing that than you’d think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just asked a union guy on site what’s up but with my past events experience they won’t make any decision until (like you said) they get a lightening report tomorrow. It takes me about 80mins to get to MetLife so I won’t make the decision to go until 5:30ish, unless something is announced. This weekend was STUPID unpredictable weather.. full 72hrs.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k12 Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 I have been keeping my eye on ticketmaster and there were hundreds of seats in section 1 and 5 on the floor (side sections) and I was looking if they were going to reduce the price on them further and they oddly disappeared in the last hour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You basically just need to follow the GN'R t-shirts when making the change. There is a huge parking lot at MetLife too. I'm just Ubering with my wife/friends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than likely if there was thunderstorms the show would be cancelled outright and then they'd try and reschedule it for the end of the tour or tag it into the following years tour. Abbreviated sets aren't always a bad thing though. Obviously you don't get as many songs and they might skip over your preferred deep cut... but a show when it's pissing down on the band can be really cool to watch... a nightmare for them, but the visuals are worth it. Metallica in Manchester / Taylor swift more recently, come to mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlreed44 Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Looks like a storm around 4/6pm doesn’t seem like a washout and show will happen. Hoping for another solid show like Hershey! Also, taking train most likely. Hope to see some fellow gunners! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
