It's just too good at setting the tone for a GNR concert. I think it'd be a terrible decision to open a concert with a song that a large proportion of the audience is gonna be totally unfamiliar with. Fair enough, you usually see a single kick things off when it was released shortly before a tour kicks-off. I think that there are a good handful of other songs that can be used as an opener though. Maybe next touring cycle... Edited August 18, 2023 by Coma16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakestar Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Finally got here. Heard ISE and WTTJ soundcheck. Ebayers beat me to the lithos (outside), doubtful I’ll get one inside. Got a couple $50 shirts. That hurts converted to Canadian! 54 minutes ago, mikeman5150 said: Probably 7:45 Anyone able to get a litho from the merch truck?

At the Hershey and Metlife show, they had a tiny amount of lithos outside but majority were inside. I left during Paradise in Hershey and still 5-10 lithographs displayed for sale. If you go in when doors open, you can easily get a litho! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamsapple Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I'm expecting a late start into a short set with a hungover Axl sounding like shit from partying last night. But I hope for the best for those attending in person. May you get a great show. If they had any balls left they'd start the show with Absurd, Hard Skool and Perhaps as the first three songs and then do their usual routine. Not gonna happen, I know.

I quite like the reverse when bands get the big guns out the way straight away and then have some fun. Saw the Pumpkins back in 2013 and they started with Tonight, Tonight and Cherub Rock. Roger Waters a couple of months ago did Comfortably Numb and Another Brick in the Wall and then went into the show proper. Would be fun if Guns opened with PC, then NR and SCOM and then Axl was like - "We're playing CD1 and CD2 in full and a friend of mine, Mr. Tommy Stinson is going to sing a couple of songs."

Still, doing the old flipped setlist thing would be fun. I do think one drawback though is that the show doesn't really build to a crescendo.

I'd love to see them opening with TIL (Axl walking out alone, sitting down at the piano like a big ole maestro, not saying a word just playing the song, then Slash getting his shit together for once and playing the solo properly, no drums, no band just the two), then the band comes out and they kick into PC - would be the biggest WTF moment for casuals and hardcore fans ever and a ballsy move to begin a show. No piss breaks and beer fetching during that night I tell ya. 8 minutes ago, Dummy said: Everyone would leave immediatelly I wouldn't. I love CD and I like Tommy, so yeah bring it on. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
