Catcher in the rye Shacklers Revenge PERFECT MEDLEY! Title: Re: If GNR were to play next year's Super Bowl Post by: AxlReznor on February 07, 2011, 05:59:55 AM The stage would probably be circular, with pyro around the edges. Nothing too elaborate (out of all the people with an elaborate performance, only Michael Jackson and Prince have managed to pull it off from what I've seen).
Axl's Clothes: Knowing Axl, he'd come out in full football uniform (minus the helmet obviously) for whichever team he is rooting for. Setlist: Welcome To The Jungle (intro/first verse/first chorus) Gimme Shelter (duet with Mick Jagger - and if not Mick, with Keith Richards or Ronnie Wood on guitar, and maybe someone like Christina Aguilera on backing vocals) Better Paradise City (outro) Title: Re: If GNR were to play next year's Super Bowl Post by: bigcash2002 on February 07, 2011, 10:20:47 AM Jungle

2 round stages connected by a semi circle ramp The show starts with the band on the left stage (right stage is dark), DJ behind the drum riser playing the opening of CD. They make it through a few verses of CD (with solo)... Axl makes his way the the center of the ramp. Left stage goes dark, Right stage lights up to some version of the old band (maybe no Slash and DJ comes across with Axl). The launch into Jungle... Back to left stage and Better... both stages play Paradise City. It would need to be somethign similar to that for them to get a gig like the Super Bowl. Title: Re: If GNR were to play next year's Super Bowl Post by: sixgnr on February 07, 2011, 05:21:20 PM Watchin' the last Super Bowl I suppose that next year Minnie and Mickey Mouse will play the entire Chinese Democracy album.

I want the guns over here, and the roses over there!" Tommy comes over and gives Axl a Snickers...camera points at the rest of the band watching to see Axl change from a diva... Camera rolls back to Axl...Axl smiles... "Nope, I'm still a fuckin' asshole!" Cue straight to DJ up on the speaker under spotlight ripping into CD or Jungle. :yes: Somehow I'd want a transition into the song I believe features Axl's voice the best...This I Love. Fuck, they could have those dancers that dance up 100' long fabrics doing aerial acrobatics ... Now, since all that'll never happen, I think our only sliver of hope would be to get Axl doing a small portion of the show...perhaps a duet with a hot chick that digs his songs, perhaps Aguilera or Underwood. Title: Re: If GNR were to play next year's Super Bowl Post by: Silex on February 09, 2011, 05:45:39 AM Lights out.
- Jungle starts (and the crowd goes wild!) With some badass bombs - Madagascar (blue lights and some great clips on jumbotron) I like how they did it in VMA's. Even though Axls voice was bad, the transmission between the songs gave me chills. And after Maddy - Sweet Child (Back to classics, red lights, GN'R stuff on jumbotron) - Better (Darker GN'R stuff) - Paradise City (Ultimate Closer. Big bombs. Confettis. GUITARS!! Everybody goes nuts.) Optinal classics: November Rain (maybe too long), KOHD, YCBM or Nightrain. But I'd rather go with that.

Title: Re: If GNR were to play next year's Super Bowl Post by: Insider on February 09, 2011, 07:44:36 AM Axl's Clothes: Knowing Axl, he'd come out in full football uniform (minus the helmet obviously) for whichever team he is rooting for. Oakland Raiders of course, and the setlist.. wttj is always used in football games before the kickoff so it would be a wise choice, then ycbm/lald [any of both], scom and ending with PC a real classic set, the stage... a lot of fire and pyros.

Title: Re: If GNR were to play next year's Super Bowl Post by: Buddha_Master on February 11, 2011, 05:20:58 PM If they did there would be no songs off CD. It would be exciting to see though I guess. I would trip out sure but, I would be nervous for Axl. After the 2001 VMA appearance I wouldn't want anything to go wrong again. I am a fan but its just never a sure thing. I wish it was more like whenever Paul McCartney performers, and you know you will always 100% of the time get a great appearance and nothing will go wrong. This kind of drama is one of the reasons I love Axl but, I digress. I don't see the NFL taking the chance.
I also don't see Axl doing this one off with the original line-up. Although maybe that is almost a way to get everyone off his dick about a reunion. "Look I am doing this one off this one time so everyone can shut the fuck up and I and the more badass new version of GN'R can finally move on." There is just too many reasons why this won't happen. So maybe in the twisted world of GN'R where nothing makes sense... this might actually happen? :nervous: Title: Re: If GNR were to play next year's Super Bowl Post by: BumbleBuzz on February 12, 2011, 02:25:54 AM I would imagine if the band did perform at the Superbowl it would be along the lines of the Stones production, and would feature the original line up (more or less, Alder probably won't be invited and Izzy will probably decline for personal reasons)
They'd perform some kind of melody featuring 'Only Women Bleed' before Knocking On Heaven's Door...the whole thing would be quite expensive, and they'd film it as well Title: Re: If GNR were to play next year's Super Bowl Post by: banachkevin on February 14, 2011, 10:20:48 AM i hope they dont play, unless there was a new albume or somthing to promote. its just slash looked like such a whore with the black eyed peas,and fergi tring to sing and dance like axl almost made me puke in my mouth.

Yep, cringeworthy indeed. :yes: I don't see GN'R playing the halftime show, it just doesn't seem like something Axl would do. But if it was to happen, I would hope it would be heavily based on Chinese Democracy material. Maybe they could do a medley which incorporated a classic, into the setlist of CD songs. : ok: |
