Title: Asia 2009 Post by: CherryGarcia on August 17, 2015, 05:13:21 PM Anyone feel these were the best run of shows since 2006/2007? Axl sounded great, didn't hide behind hats or heavy coats, was in pretty good shape and looked great and seemed to be really trying....I wish we could've gotten a DVD of Osaka 2009.

I think the 12.19.09 concert is the best concert any new line-up has done. One of the few bootlegs I still listen to with the same frequency I do older shows. Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: jarmo on August 17, 2015, 06:38:58 PM Great shows. But the band got even better later on during the tour.

Historic show and the 2nd or 3rd with Ashba in the band ?

Historic show and the 2nd or 3rd with Ashba in the band ? All but 'Rhiad'. You can't beat that setlist. It's the 08.03.1991 Inglewood show of this line-up's era. Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: nick6sic6 on August 17, 2015, 07:05:54 PM Correct !
Ahh...With every mention of that specific Inglewood concert, Locomotive comes to mind. Pretty off-topic but if the Osaka concert featured Locomotive,with this 3-guitar lineup,i'd be squirting even now :-X Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: Rainfox on August 18, 2015, 02:21:12 AM I agree with Jarmo. The band got better as the tour went on and in to 2010. Although, I do get the fascination with the 2009 shows. As I recall they were Chinese heavy and the band was kinda doing a "trial by fire" approach. Exhaustive sets and setlists. Nothing has ever rivaled the 2006 shows though in my book. The 2002 shows I never got to see but on tape they sound and look really great as well. Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: manu on August 18, 2015, 10:47:12 AM The LATAM leg in 2010 was great! After that Axl lose his voice n' shape:

Mainly, because it was far and away the best Axl we've gotten in 15 years time. As much as I love that 12.19.09 show, its completely unrealistic to expect that show every night. All those songs, that long a show. Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: jarmo on August 18, 2015, 12:38:49 PM I agree with Jarmo. The band got better as the tour went on and in to 2010. My favorite show production was in Canada in 2010. /jarmo Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: sofine11 on August 18, 2015, 12:48:31 PM I agree with Jarmo.

Loved the Cobain wheelchair nod. :hihi: Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: Alpachiris on August 18, 2015, 03:04:58 PM 2010 :yes:
Was the best year of the new incarnation of GNR Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: D-GenerationX on August 18, 2015, 03:35:59 PM I was at the Toronto show & it was spectacular.

Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: D-GenerationX on August 18, 2015, 03:36:45 PM 2010 :yes: Was the best year of the new incarnation of GNR I would say 2010 was unquestionably the best year since the album came out. But, overall, would you take the 2010 performances over 2006? Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: Alpachiris on August 18, 2015, 04:26:53 PM good question :nervous:
those two years were the best! Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: RnT on August 18, 2015, 04:44:22 PM The LATAM leg in 2010 was great!

Loved the Cobain wheelchair nod. :hihi: And it was the day after the Montreal show. Which also rocked. /jarmo Title: Re: Asia 2009 Post by: markreed on August 24, 2015, 03:51:34 PM I'm just watching that show. COR. I have enjoyed each version of the band less over time, peaking with the bonkers 2002 version.. but no denying that's one helluva show.
