Here Today... Gone To Hell!

Thinking we get a special show !  :peace:

I will be there. Actually bringing a date to the show who knows gnr but not entirely should be very interesting.  : ok:

See you there! Would love a surprise guest  : ok: :beer:

Wouldn't expect too many "surprises." I've learned to just expect business as usual this time around. A few welcome additions to the set in Philly, but I wouldn't expect anything groundbreaking.

They are playing 3 nights in MSG, I dont expect any major changes on the setlist but I HOPE they rotate a bit the alternates on the encore atleast  :peace:

We're jaded! A "reunited" lineup isn't enough anymore /s

I'm in the city this week and next. Definitely going to Night #1 and aiming for Night #3.

night 1 and 2 for me

Have fun tonight folks.

for all we know this could be the last go around for these guys i don't care what the set list is take in these concerts because who knows what the future holds. And what is this forum gonna be like when there is nothing happening like the first decade of the 2000s minus a few tours here and there.

Wouldn't this be the perfect venue to open up with Jungle once again?

I'll be there!! Can't wait!!!!

Anyone ever have luck meeting the band after a MSG show? I?d love to get a poster signed after the show for my new office.

2 sets of back to backs for me this week!!! It?s going to be insane! 🍻 start this afternoon!!!

Also gnr just tweeted shows start at 730 sharp

I just got an email about the 730 start time- something something irony

Honestly the new lineup was "enough" for me - I saw those lineups 14 times. Reunion has been gravy to me.

Pumped!!!!! Getting out of work at 6..then shooting straight to the Gahhhhhhhhhden

Happen to be in town, up from Delaware and didn't get to see Philly since I was out of town last weekend.  Heading over to grab ampre-show drink now at Stoudt. Can't wait.
..

Headed down now poundings brews  on the metro north- wooooo!!   :beer:

Can someone post a pic of litho if possible?

They are supposed to start in 10 minutes and this building is EMPTY ...

Their reputation is biting them in the ass... haha

It's sold out though, right?

Show started! https://www.pscp.tv/w/1vAGRNQXekyGl (https://www.pscp.tv/w/1vAGRNQXekyGl)

It was the same way when Philly started, it'll fill up very quickly. Its hard to believe guns going on before 8. There Was A Time ... I saw them go on at 12:30 on a few occasions  :hihi:

Ha ha, there were a number of shows that we sat in the bar until 10 p.m. and then casually walked over to the arena and never once worried about missing the opening song. This was pre-reunion obviously.

I just checked eBay and the lithographs are already there.  Man that's fast!

Chances of getting Slash and Axl themes for the next two shows maybe??  Would make a wicked set!!!

If setlist.fm is right , then they played Madagascar again :)

Pink joined the band for Patience tonight.  :o

All I can say is Wow...  What a show. My 11th GnR show and very well have been the best..

Amazing show they most have started promptly i got their and they were into double talkin jive already i missed a few songs. They all sounded amazing. Pink showing up at the end of patience was a really cool moment.

My shot
 
Mr. Brownstone

more to come

Best show ever - band is so tight! Ran into so many people who haven?t seen AXL and slash since 91-92. Blown away. AXL rules and slash was incredible

And DUFF fucks! Susan looked amazing too lolwhat a night I?ll be in NJ in 16 hours

Civil War

Why is this not the first time hearing if setlist.fm is right ???

It's understandable if some songs are missing but there wouldn't be a song included that was not played... Or?

Well, then of course not everyone knows which song is which :beer:

Patience
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8sgy0faXyg

That was really good. \m/

What was setlist?

Was there -
This was an onslaught of energy - wow

Tremendous sound and feel - Slash was otherworldy and Axl at times you could see was jumping around working the crowd

* To the earlier comment about it being empty at first - that's exactly right - they took stage at 7:45pm and at 7:30pm it looked like there were maybe 10k in house. By the time the lights showed the crowd during Brownstone - the place was absolutely packed - crazy

Axl performing with a woman for the first time ever  :D :hihi:

Rocket Queen? That was quite a performance.....

The crowd was great last night... it was a little slow to fill up...but by the time brownstone started it looked to be about 100 percent full... Duffs side of the pit had considerably less people in it ...weird.. they def could fit more people down there.

I bought the Duff shirt...and I imagine Sunday and Monday will be Slash and Axl... so they are going to sucker me for each....

The band was incredible... not much to say really... as somebody who follows the band like me... I know what song is coming... that DOES take some out of the excitement out of it... but this is my band... my only band... and I am cherishing every minute of it...

I went to the show by myself straight from work and sat there in my work clothes...

CANT WAIT FOR SUNDAY where I can pre game, chill out with drinks, and see the show with a couple buddies of mine.

BTW Pink can really sing... wish she did the whole song with them.

How do I add the shows I've been to at the bottom ????

She is great.  I'm a huge fan.  Her concert was one of the best ones I ever saw for any act.  Tons of energy, acrobatics and she can sing.

Edit your signature

So casualties were TWAT and Don't Cry.
Attitude became New Rose as predicted.

How late did they play until?

Past 11pm.

Outro music started at 11:06....




/jarmo

Well played sir...

Thanks. Was chuckling to myself as I typed it!

 ;D ;D ;D

Great show back at it again tonight in NJ!

Are they still selling preshow merch from the trailer?  Does anybody know.
Or has it moved all inside of  the arenas...?

I wouldn't have thought MSG (or many of Arena venues) have the capacity for trailers outside.

Yeah - it's called the same guy who was selling gold watches inside of his trench coat and the same guy who was selling "vintage" Gnr t-shirts

this summer they had a trailer....my profile pic was with it in Ottawa.
I bought all my stuff before doors opened in Montreal.

Just wondering if it is going to be the same for this leg?

Looks like the trailer is there tonight (NJ) so safe to assume it'll be there at other nights, somewhere.....

Thanks

Duff's wife posted this pic (I believe) on her instagram.  It was reposted by others on twitter.

Jus thought I'd mention this.... not in a negative way... just an observation...

The Wichita Lineman song... is really a vibe killer... I'm sorry... the band might enjoy it... but the crowd doesn't... I am not one to cry on the covers in the set...

but come on...give me Michelle AND Out Ta Get MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE over that song....

 I said " if setlist.fm is right" because I wasn't there and I don't trust an average Joe to get it right. For example, I checked setlist.fm for the Newark show, and they have TWAT listed as the 13th song( after this I Love and before Civil War) AND as the second song of the encore( after Madagascar).
  I'm no conspiracy theorist, but there's nothing wrong with being a little skeptical of stuff you read on the internet, especially with something like this.

Surely there is nothing wrong in that and sure as hell in the early years songs were started and stopped for various reasons. So was a song played then or not.

Nowadays, however, there cannot be any ambiguity. The song either was played or not played.

It is just weird and stupid if the setlists are nowhere near correct :rant:

You would be correct.
Fact is - and I saw it in person last year at Metlife and this year at MSG - there are clear songs when people take advantage to go to the bathroom and to get food & drink

The chinese democracy songs unless they are played very early like CD and Better.... the solo parts like Duff's turn and then this Wichita lineman thing
Though I think it's a beautiful song - it did seem at out of place

Oh well -

Yeah, I agree! The atmosphere around me was a letdown when that song was played. I sat down and was kinda bored when that song came on.

Other than that, it was a great show!! Nice to see Pink on Patience. It was something different. This band is tight! The energy was great! I hope when this leg ends, GNR rests up and the new music in the later half of 2018.

Section B row 21- every single seat was empty. Anyone ever seen something like that before??

Yep. It's usually a result of ticketmaster nonsense-holding back seats yo charge at sky high prices, people don't buy em so they end up going to waste.
