Here Today... Gone To Hell!

"Well, today we have another GN'R show here in Brazil. This time, Axl Rose and GNR are going to play in Belo Horizonte, MG.

As we did last Sunday, I'm going to update this topic with all the information about the show.

We already have many people in the venue to send updates in real time, and be prepared: today is possible we are going to have a little surprise! Stay tunned!

Updates, pictures, and "a little bit more"!

Let?s ROCK!!!"

*is very excited by the "a little bit more"*

Is it possible?! :D

I heard the bit more is that they will sacrifice a cow and make a BBQ (with cheese bread, of course) for the band. :hihi:

Yeah, a brazilian guy from perfectcrimegnr.com will try to do the show introduction ! Wait for... : ok:

Live stream or screen shot video recording?

Yeah, live stream!

But how is that possible?

A Wi-Fi/3G connection and a smartphone or notebook (with a webcam) would do the trick.

Thank you or everything as well, you guys worked your asses off to cover this for everyone WE SALUTE YOU!!!  Sorry about earlier with pics my mistake :(  Thanks again you and all your users for giving back to the community  : ok: :beer: :smoking:

One dissapointed issue: I was told that outside the stadium there was t-shirt to sell with GNRLA index image.


That's sad.

Thanks snascarella   :peace:

Kind of a short setlist, especially missing songs like like Patience, Better, This I Love, Shackler's Revenge, Magadascar and others that are being played in the last gigs...

Thanks for the coverage! You guys deserve more, hope we get a longer setlist in SP, RJ and POA!

I have the feeling that the show in Argentina will be HUGE

Wait! What? 15 songs? why so short compared to other gigs? was something wrong? ???

If they do this in Rio de Janeiro I'll be very disappointed.

thats a short set? wonder whats up. still a good show im sure!

Yeah I'd Be dissapointed also considering the length of all their previous shows. Nobody's expecting 4 hrs. everynite, but all other's have been pretty much 20+ songs- I mean only 4 songs off CD?  I can't even remember the last time they haven't played "Better"- maybe 2002? 

The 91' St Louis Riot show was longer than this!

Maybe Axl's worn out from his 3 week NYC bender!? ???

Yep, i'm not complaining about missing songs like OTGM, Michelle, CITR, TWAT, and others, since they not being played in everyone show. *Not that I'm thinking that we don't deserved it, especially with such passionate fans of GN'R in Brazil and South America...

But not playin' Better, Maddy and so? i really hope that somethings went wrong instead of a short setlist with no reason for it.

Just checking in to see how the show went ??? tonight.  I was going crazy with no new GNR last month, except for the gigs in N.Y. I have to read all your posts. I saw the flag pic the other day. That looked amazing. Hope Axl just keeps getting BETTER  :-*

Perhaps there was a strict curfew?

Maybe they wanted to celebrate Beta's birthday

15 songs.....what happened?

Yes,thanks for sharing with us...

Great pics guys, thanks for sharing it with the rest of us that couldn't be there!  : ok:

What a crowd! Thank you Belo Horizonte!

Thanks for the t-shirt!


Happy birthday Beta!



/jarmo

looks like Baz probably played also as long as GNR?

i thought we got passed this set list arguing when the new tour started. it looks good to me and thanks for the updates.

Wow where are you when you take this picture? Who you are?

Beta? (notice the pun)

Maybe she could be!

Maybe Jarmo/someone can confirm that the setlist on the first page is wrong. In this article : http://musica.terra.com.br/interna/0,,OI4313512-EI1267,00.html the setlist is :

1. Chinese Democracy
2. Welcome to The Jungle
3. It's So Easy
4. Mr Brownstone
5. Sorry
6. Better
7. James Bond Theme - Solo do guitarrista Richard Fortus
8. Live and Let Die
9. If the World
10. Rocket Queen
11. Ziggy Stardust - Solo do tecladista Dizzy Reed
12. Street of Dreams
13. Scraped
14. Solo de guitarra do DJ Ashba
15. Sweet Child O Mine
16. You Could Be Mine
17. Another Brick in the Wall
18. November Rain
19. Pink Panther - Solo do guitarrista Ron Thal
20. Knockin' On Heavens Door
21. Shackler's Revenge
22. Patience
23. Night Train
BIS
24. Madagascar
25. Paradise City

Thanks to Rain from the french messageboard http://www.gnrfrancophone.net

do you have some pic of "crazy" Brazilians...

You people are the best crowd in the world

congratulations

Interesting, so they played 4 more songs from Chinese Democracy than we thought: Better, Scraped, Shackler's Revenge and Madagascar?

I think they got it wrong and got confused with Brasilia's setlist though, because I don't think GN'R could have played 25 songs in 120 minutes, and I don't think GN'R fans would have forgotten those songs last night in the updates.

Indeed, maybe Jarmo or Fernando can confirm though!

The thing is in the article i've translated this morning they say the show lasted two hours and a half not only two hours ...  :confused: And apparently it's not the same setlist as in Brasilia as they were supposed to have played Knockin' and live an let die ... So until further notice the mystery remains.  :confused:

From what The article says, there is a specific mention about Madagascar and 8 new songs.

I think people were so amazed about the gig that they thought someone else would metion the other songs already.

On another forum though, someone mentioned being upset about no maddy or Better and this thread was getting updated in real time.
Seems like a very incomplete setlist for 6 albums of material.
I know the show was 2 hours but the solo spots probably take up 20 - 30 mins as well.

Wich forum? Maybe the ones upset about the setlist were just following the updates.

In fact, one of the people who I know was there said it was the best concert ever (it was Vargas)

This set list is wrong... there's no Better, Scraped, Shackler's Revenge, Madagascar, Patience in the show of Belo Horizonte! I was there
But the show was fantastic!

Oh, thanks. So the person who wrote the article probably didnt even wait for the end of the show. :hihi:

I kept searching the web and I've just read at gunsnrosesbrasil.com forum that Terra's setlist was totally wrong.  :-X

They did play Heaven's Door and Live And Let Die, as they do for every show of the past ten years. ;D

Ooops my bad ! Did I tell you I need new glasses ?  8)
What's really upsetting is having translated an article full of bullshit this morning ... a good waste of time. Next time I'll know better.  :-X

Thanks snascarella and the perfectcrimegnr.com for the fantastic pics and updates. Especilly the pics, some of them really awesome!!!!  8)

Maybe the setlist was wrong, but the rest of the article was ok? ;)

And thanks all for the pics and updates!

Some of it maybe ... but you can erase the parts where they said they played 8 songs from CD and Madagascar ...  :confused:  :-[

ok  :) thank you gungun  ;) and Pluie of course ;D

They guy who wrote his article was really inspired, he even imagine the band playing Patience and the reactions of the crowd:

"O assobio conhecido de Patience, balada que foi at? trilha de novela e que embalou muitos namoros na d?cada passada, tamb?m arrancou suspiros de nostalgia em muitos casais e mesmo solteiros no gin?sio."

Something like:

"The well know whistle of Patience, a ballad that was even soundtrack of "soap-operas" and relationships on the last decade also drew nostalgic sigh from couples and singles in the gym"

It seems to me the journalist wrote her article after the Brasilia show...she did mention Belo Horizonte though.

You fuckin Brazilians are CRAZY  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Live streaming w/ a cell phone?? Now thats rock n' roll  :peace:

Thanks!

I know it's been a long time I left my home country but the journalist is indeed talking about the Belo Horizonte show ... He talks about BH audience "Com explos?es e antigos hits, Guns N' Roses agita f?s em BH" and about the BH venue "o Guns N' Roses colocou para pular os mais de 15 mil f?s que lotaram o gin?sio Mineirinho". And the Cruzeiro is a football team from BH.
So maybe VoodooChild is right. The journalist left before the end of the show thinking GNR is the kind of band to always play the same setlist.  :P

Lots of journalists think that (and actually many bands usually play the same setlist), so that could be the explanation! ;)

Lol, yeah - he's unlucky - his lazyness has been exposed to the world !  :rofl:

either which way, it shows you what a joke the journalism profession has become....and that crosses all country borders....there are idiots all over the world. :(

no better? first time since 2002 isn't it

 :P

Yes, I believe that's right- like i said bfore, there had to be a reason for the short set. They we're playing more songs from CD on 06'-07' tour & this is the official "Chinese Democracy World Tour."

Whoops :hihi:

I think they didn't play Better at one of the gigs in the 2006 UK tour.

As a journalist myself, I would never do that. Not only about the setlist, but also the lies in the article itself (with specific mentions of Madagascar and Patience).

yeah, something is not right here. Mostly old stuff and short set list.

When I first saw the videos from the show, I thought this was the same jacket Axl wore often at the start of shows in 2006 as well. But upon closer inspection we can clearly see it has a different pattern, with a slightly different texture also.

Very nice jacket though, Axl's got a wicked style.  : ok:


Lee

Thanks for the updates, Snascarella. PerfectCrimeGNR is doing a great job, thank you ver much for this!
Some fans in GNR Community in orkut will try to livestream the SP concert with a N95 Cellphone, how will you do the live-stream?

Small setlist... I hope they're holding everything for the SP concert, the biggest one.  :hihi:

Excellent pics Santiago-gnr!!!! thanks for sharing!

Setlist: Chinese Democracy, Welcome To The Jungle, It's So Easy, Mr. Brownstone, Sorry, Richard Fortus Guitar Solo (James Bond Theme), Live And Let Die, If The World, Rocket Queen, Dizzy Reed Piano Solo/Street Of Dreams, You Could Be Mine, DJ Ashba Guitar Solo/Sweet Child O' Mine,  Jam (Another Brick In The Wall: Part 2)/Axl Piano Solo (Goodbye Yellow Brick Road/Someone Saved My Life Tonight)/November Rain, Bumblefoot Guitar Solo (Pink Panther), Nightrain

Encore: Knockin' On Heaven's Door, Paradise City



During Sorry, Axl wears a local football club's flag. Huge cheers for that.

Beta is wished a happy birthday during Knockin' n Heaven's Door. Axl also talks about getting to the hotel at 4am, the bar being open, the band being there, girls being present and how there was a pool in his room. In other words, he was fucked.

---

I think the crowd was the loudest crowd I've heard. Amazing!




/jarmo

Thanks Jarmo  :)

Thanks Jarmo!

Axl used the flag of Brazil with the coat of Cruzeiro Futebol Clube rsrsrs

In Minas Gerais, 50% general twists for Cruzeiro and 50% for Atletico Mineiro

This was the reason of going for the music Sorry

Jarmo now you will see how the public from SP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have friends who will travel 2000 Miles to the show

Are there some pics of this great crowd?

I was there. Great show. Short setlist, but what the hell? I think 98% of the crowd was just amazed about the show.

I'll try to post a bigger review on saturday, cause my notebook has broken and i don't have internet here (i'm still in BH)

^I'm glad you liked. Seems like you had the best time. :D

They corrected the article with the actual setlist, but there's still mentions about the songs they didn't play:

Really great one I think!

Thanks for the pics! They're really cool!

There are pics of the crowd in the previous page of this topic. ;)

Yes, i had! Just as you said! Hope you'll have the same on Saturday!

This is just a endless (and useless) war.

War? What are you talking about dude? I said THIS IS NOTHING AGAIN BRAZILIAN.

In fact, I would be in Brazil by now If I had money...

This is not war or that kind of shit.

Ok Ulises.

There was a time, at the end of Knocking, where 4tus just made a face like "what the hell? you're insane", with the hands on the head, just like he wasn't believing in what he was seeing

Guns N' Roses must know that South America loves them.


I think we're doing the things well :hihi:

Maybe not... i just don't get why the setlist was too short. Not complaining, i just loved the show but i was really expecting hearing better.

Anyway, as i said before, 98% of the crowd was really impressed with the band

How receptive was the audience to Chinese democracy songs?

Yes thanks Will, that is the one I was talking about.

I love that jacket, he was wearing it the first time I saw GN'R live in Portugal, Lisbon 2006. He reminded me of a Christ like figure the way he was dressed in that gold coloured jacket.

Well to me he is a Christ like figure, so I guess it fits my perception of my idol.  :love:

Many of the fans knew the lyrics...

Axl have Style,,   fuck hes the king of style,,  True Religion Jeans, Z brand shirts, Great China Wall,,   Axl Rose kicks ASS, always and forever,..    Hes simply the best!!!!! : ok:

I was very surprised with that! Street of dreams had the best crowd reception, IMO. The crowd really sang ChiDem, too.

This flag was threw to Axl... The Biggest soccert team in the city... CRUZEIRO ESPORTE CLUBE!
I?m  in the black T-shirt.

 Short or not, this show was the biggest show I've ever seen in my 24 years!.  :peace:
Belo Horizonte with a crowd completely crazy!
Thanks GNR to make my hometown, the capital of rock for one day!

Jarmo, I hope you liked the T-shirt and you can use that! And you can help us to give the T-shirts to the other guys.  :beer:

Well, my journey to Belo Horizonte had a happy ending, basically because Im alive  ;D

I havent sleep in the last 35 hours i think, just managed to sleep a little laying down on the floor at Belo Horizonte?s rodaviaria (bus station). Finding a Taxi after the show was a nightmare, and the 8 hour trip from Belo Horizonte to Rio was all the way long with 35 degrees... that bus was hell inside.

About the venue:

- Nice place. I thought Mineirinho was bigger (considering how enormous is mineirao, and how big mineirinho looks from the outside), and the venue was not packed at all. It was dangerously empty when Baz started to play, but it became decently full when GNR got the stage. The Premium Floor was 50% packed, the ?good?seats were also 50% packed, and the field and the higher seats were actually pretty packed. The good thing about mineirinho is you can see really well from almost everywhere, and you can also see it confortably because the brazilian crowd never pushed me, never saw it jumping like maniacs, never saw them ?pogoing?, all things im used to for attending shows in Argentina.

About the crowd:

- As someone said, not trying to start some kind of ?war?against southamerican crowds, if the band got impressed with the Belo Horizonte crowd, they REALLY have no idea what they?re gonna see in Buenos Aires. People was enthusiastic, they sang LOUD all the songs (at some points, putting Axl?s voice in a second place) and there was some ?energy? in the crowd in the AFD classics, like SCOM or Jungle. But what we, argentininians, know as ?pogo?, was absolutely absent. The crowd was enthusiastic, but it was not a frenzy like it will be in Buenos Aires, like there is all big rock concerts there. I wanted to jump like a lunatic, to headbang, to get crazy, to feel some pain, but none of this things happened yesterday.

About the opening acts:

- I dont know what the fuck was that brazilian band playing first, but thank God they left the stage quickly. Baz started the show like a fucking psycho, rocking and headbanging and playing with his mic, yelling incredible screams, but the band was not as enthusiastic as him (Nick Sterling, great player, was stood up in the back of the stage, like he was rehearsing or just fucking around with friends...). The crowd loved the old Skid Row tunes, but showed no enthusiasm with the KILLER new tunes from Angel Down, like Back In The Saddle and Stuck Inside.

ABout the stage:

The stage really dissapointed me. Very small, with almost no space for Axl and the guys to run around. The videowalls were small too. Forgettable stage.

About the GNR show:

The first thing I want to mention is how INCREDIBLE was Axl?s voice. His voice is in top form, sounding like he did in the last skin n bones tour in 1993, nailing all screams, and singing like it was ??easy?? to sing the GNR songs. His voice was powerful, crystal clear, and he never got out of breath. Trust me: if you are planning to see this band live, this is the best Axl you?ll get. Im not exaggerating, and Im saying this 24 hours after the show, so im not overreacting because of emotion: Axl?s voice is out-fucking-standing. 10 over 10.

A real problem comes to anyone who goes to see a GNR show: you just dont know WHERE to see, where to focus. You have Axl, yes, the main attraction. He moves like a 20 year old guy, he felt confortable yesterday, like he was really having a good time.

Then you have DJ Ashba, the guitarist that you?ll catch yourself looking at him most of the times. He?s magnetic: his stage presence is huge, he is dancing and moving around all the show, and when he starts soloing he is the owner of the show. That?s what made me musically fall in love with Robin: attitude. I thought DJ was not good in this aspect, but he showed me the opposite. He?s the main attraction of the show after Axl. The volume of his guitar couldnt be any higher. He was killer in the sorry / SOD / SCOM / NR solos, and he was the happiest guy in all mineirinho, trust me.

Richard is so intense. The way he attacks the chords of his guitar, how he gets ?possesed?at some points... sometimes you can see him attacking his guitar playing near Frank, when all eyes are spotted elsewhere. He just feels what he is playing.

Bumblefoot is a little ?shy?in comparison with DJ and Richard, but when he?s under the spotlight, he rocks like a motherfucker. He robs the show completely in If The World, one of the highlights of the night, and I think his solo moment was the one that generated the greatest enthusiasm in the crowd (even though i think Richard?s was the best, INCREDIBLY powerful and groovy)

Frank is just Mr. Demolition Man on the drums. He?s a beast. The way he hit that drumkit in Sorry?s outro will be always on my mind. It seemed like they were 3 or 4 guys on the drums. He truly rocks.

The band sounded tighter than ever. I?ve never experienced something like this before: a band sounding as good or even better than on its studio albums. You Could Be Mine was so intense that i got shivers in all my body, that i feel freezed for a moment (and there was in fact 30 degrees). For those planning to see the band: BUY A PREMIUM TICKET. The experience of seeing the band live is already incredible, but seeing the band with one or two meters of distance is just unbelievable.

Other things I would like to mention:

- I always said just erase LALD and YCBM from the setlist! theyre boring and the band doesnt sound good on them. DAMN IT HOW WRONG I WAS. THEY FUCKING BLOW YOUR MIND IN ONE MILLION PIECES. YCBM live feelis like putting your brain in a meat proccessor. Incredibly powerful.

- Axl sang a part of Another Brick In The Wall part 2. I dont know if he did that already (adding his vocals), but it rocked and the brazilian crowd loved it.

- The first half of the opener, Chinese Democracy, was a disaster. Axl was singing one thing while the band was playing another. Axl stopped singing completely at one point, but the band kept playing. Someone yelled at Axl what part of the lyrics they were playing, and then he managed to perform the rest of the song correctly.

- Axl pointed a guy, while showing a big smile, at the very beggining of the show. Who was him, do any of you know?

- The pyro rocked. So do the Confetti at PC

- Beta showed herself very happy and moved when Axl called her to go to the stage, so the crowd could sing happy birthday to her. There was also a medium sized flag in the higher seats, in front of the stage, saying something like ?happy birthday beta, thanks for taking care of Axl...?

- When Axl introduced the band, there were not too enthusiastic applauses for the bandmembers, except for Dizzy, who was VERY applauded and well received by the crowd. The crowd showed zero enthusiasm with DJ Ashba?s solo, when he was trying to cheer the people up before starting soloing. That attitude ended as soon as he started SCOM.

- The crowd knew all the lyrics of the new songs, but Street Of Dreams was applauded like it was a classic like November Rain. That made me smile  :)

Conclussion: best show of my life, but I know this statement will not last too much, because I really feel Uruguay and Argentina shows will be more enthusiastic in terms of crowd reception. Musically, this band is a fucking dream team. Guns N?Roses just cant sound better, Axl just cant sing better (trust me, no joke at all, this is the best Axl you?ll get), my only negative comment could be the duration of the setlist. If this had been my only and last show, I would may be dissapointed. But when you just finished seeing a concert with the quality of the GNR shows, no matter how many songs they play, you?ll ALWAYS want more. Anyway, hope to see TWAT, Better, Madagascar, Shacklers, Scraped, IRS and a lot of other songs in my next three stops: Rio, Uruguay and Buenos Aires

great read esteban : ok:

It was an iPhone, my friend's, I was right beside him (ccorlandi) when he did it and we just didn't stream more because we ran out of battery! He planned to do it in S?o Paulo, but there it's an open venue and we thought the usually constant S?o Paulo rain would ruin his cell, so I invited him to come to B.H. (closed arena) and bring the device. Haha, it was so fucking funny to see the viewers counter going up while we're streaming! Did you guys like it??

Well, I've seen two big concerts in two big stadiums in Argentina and Brazil:
Metallica in S?o Paulo, Morumbi Stadium
AC/DC in Buenos Aires, River Plate Stadium

The crowd in Argentina is crazy, before that I've only seen Scorpions live, and I was SOOO surprised with the argentinan crowd, they don't stop, they jump like crazy and lunatic retarded, I felt home haha  ;D
But in Brazil, we sing along more. Argentinan are more lunatic and headbangers... Of course we also rock and jump as if our lifes depended on that, but they are more crazy.
 : ok:

exactly my thoughts

Brazilians SING a lot. At some points, Axl?s voice was absolutely unhearable because of it. I was surprised how a lot of brazilians, the majority i would dare to say, knew the words for Street Of Dreams. Argentine do not sing that much, but they get crazy jumping and moving around like maniacs.

Ready for Pra?a De Apoteose nexst 14th!  : ok:

Sharing my pics with you !!
THe best day of all my life
Thank you GUn n Roses !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The setlist was small but the power of the songs were strongest...FANTASTIC NIGHT

Tiao - chinese fried dough sticks -  :hihi: :hihi: :rofl:

Where is Chris in the group picture?  :confused:

You can see his hand holding a camera... :hihi:

I don't know what to say. Sincerely!
I've been a fan for 18 years now and having my favorite band in front of me was just unbelievable.
Seeing those guys doing what they do, the way they do, make me wish to do my best just like them.

Show was fucking great. Axl sounded amazing and the band played really tight.  :beer:

Axl still is a great frontman, and watching him perform was just amazing.

Bumblefoot is simply the best. The guy puts on a show of his own, his playing is just  :drool:  There's no room for DJ Ashba with his average skill and his pussy looks on the same stage that Mr. Ron Bumblefoot Thal.


Too bad the setlist was so short, they didn't even play Better. Huge bummer. There were so many special gigs, I mean, Bach joined them onstage for My Michelle 4 times, joined them once for Nightrain, there were 3 hours long shows, Tommy played some stuff on some of the shows...

We sang Happy Birthday for Beta.  ::)

I mean, Bach put his heart and soul into it, he was headbanging like a maniac, played a song he hadn't played in some time. Guy really made an effort. I was amazed by how great his show was. It seemed like it was just another show for Axl.



But what I got to see was fucking great. Just wished I had seen more.

I'll surely be seeing them again if I ever have that chance. Axl's still the man. 8)


EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot to say this, I thought Axl was struggling a little bit with If The World on the previous gigs, but hell, he absolutely nailed it on this gig. It was fucking great. :yes:

Love that picture with Massa on the big screen! :)

As I'm a huge fan of GnR and Axl, this also means a lot to me!
I'm betting Axl will go to one of the races this season.
Btw, season starts this weekend!  : ok:

Go Axl, and go Mclaren!  :peace:

BTW, anyone took a pic of Axl when a fan threw a white jacket at the stage? He made a really funny surprise face. It was a jacket just like that one stolen in Rock in Rio 2 (or he wears during Paradise City Tokyo 92 dvd, you know?)

Shut the fuck up. Really.

Bumblefoot is an awesome performer, i love him, but DJ Ashba actually owned the stage all over the show, and was by far the biggest attraction of the show after Axl. The way he moves, the way he jumps, dances, feels the show... the way he plays the solos, with all the intensity and power possible. DJ Ashba rocked extremely hard. In fact, i would really love to see him performing more solos, for example, i would love to see him performing the whole SCOM solo.

DJ Ashba REALLY rocks.

And you were a big Robin fan, right? 

So that's saying something.

I've yet to see him live, but from what I've hear most people seem to agree with you.  DJ has a great stage presence and is obviously a great performer.

im still a huge robin finck fan, and i really think DJ will never produce in me the sensations Robin did. But theyre different. Robin used to erase the other 2 guitarists from the stage. He was really magnetic and energetic, and all eyes were spotted on him.

With DJ i feel more harmony, and an overall rocker vibe onstage. DJ has the necessary attitude to walk in front of the stage and start soloing like it was the end of the world. His volume was higher than the rest of the guitarists, and he played all his parts with fury, with aggressiveness, and trust me DJ was the happiest man on the Mineirinho.

DJ can rock even when he?s not on the spotlight. That?s something I can notice also in Richard, but not on Bumblefoot, who seems to be a more quiet guy onstage, but he rocks like an ultra motherfucker when he?s soloing under the spotlight. If The World is Bumble?s showtime. ITW was one of the greatest highlights of the show

AWESOME quality videos!!!
