#111 Re: Guns N' Roses » how are the shows selling this time around? » 815 weeks ago
I wouldn't mind 6 AFD songs, 1-2 Lies, 6-7 UYI 1/2 and 4 CD songs. Just a nice mix of all the stuff they've done. If they played Since I Don't Have You or Ain't it Fun or something, I wouldn't be opposed to it, but I'm not really into a huge CD over-heavy set list since it's a year old now. But, I definitely want it represented well. And 25% of the set list amidst 75% of legitimate classic music material is definitely well represented.

Thanks for making me laugh. I don't want to burst your bubble here but there's only one guy that can bring "this band" together and that's Axl and he can tear it apart. And even if DJ were to bring this together. Axl can undo it in a matter of a mere nanosecond. Never ever forget that my friend. Now with that being said I will say it is cool of Ashba to do this and while he ducked most GNR questions he did answer a couple which is cool. If he stays this way then looks like Ron could get help on the media side.
I meant in terms of a good show and making the songs sound good for the live audience. You know, something Robin never could do.

I can't wait to hear him perform This I Love. Fucking amazing song, and I'm sure he'll be able to put more heart into that Robin solo.
#116 Re: Guns N' Roses » Canadian Tour Openers - Bach and Danko Jones » 817 weeks ago
Just for the record - Danko Jones and Bach are confirmed (their website lists the dates).
#117 Re: The Sunset Strip » KISS Sonic Boom » 817 weeks ago
Yeah, this one had me excited and ultimately let me down.
#118 Re: Guns N' Roses » Canadian Tour Openers - Bach and Danko Jones » 817 weeks ago
Yeah, I have no problems with Gunners playing hits, either. Sure, I'd love to see Estranged and Civil War weasel their way in and I hope they play This I Love and Sorry instead of IRS and TWAT, but other than that, I can go either way. If they kept TWAT and axed Live and Let Die, fine. The songs are too consistently good and like monkey said, this is my first GNR concert, it could be my last. Do I really not want to hear them play Jungle live? As far as I'm concerned, if watching Axl Rose perform Jungle or Sweet Child doesn't give you a hard-on no matter how many times you've heard it, you probably should stay home. Is it AFD heavy? Yeah, but it's the greatest rock record of all time!
I think the weakspot of the set list you posted was Live and Let Die... and it's still a great tune.
#119 Re: Guns N' Roses » Who do you want as the opening act? » 817 weeks ago
I figure as much, for sure. But, I just don't want to fuck up in one of those mini miracles where they are on stage close to the real time. If the times are late going on at the other shows when they happen, I might even end up skipping Baz. But, as of right now I am thinking happy thoughts. There are no chairs on the floor at this show, so it could be a long wait.
#120 Re: Guns N' Roses » Who do you want as the opening act? » 817 weeks ago
I hope if they have two openers that Baz is on later so I don't have to see them both. At these shows, there are no seats at all on the floor, so hopefully Axl doesn't dick around too much. So, if it "starts" at 8:00, GNR should be on stage by 10:00, right? I mean, that'd be the earliest they could come on, in theory, right? 'Cause if this turns out not to be Baz, I ain't going to any opener.
