I think WTTJ is the best opener ever Roll Eyes No need to replace it with CD IMO.. but it would be cool as the second song beer

WTTJ is a great opener. I doubt they will change the opener or PC as the last song, tough I think as someone here said that TWAT would be great for a finish as well...but maybe not that good

I think Jungle has more of a kick in the ass, then Chinese Democracy does. And that's why it's used. I would honesty have no problem with CD being used as the opener though. But it seems Jungle, Sweet Child, Nightrain, and Paradise City will always been in the set list, and used pretty much the same order they have been.

I think it could work once more people know the song.


GN'R didn't always open with Welcome To The Jungle.... People seem to forget that.

Hell, Perfect Crime was used as an opener at some shows!

I love Chinese Democracy maybe someday as an opener, but I have to say WTTJ as an opener is awsome.

I get goosebumps ever time I listen to the 2006 stuff, just the way the intro is and then the way he starts WTTJ works for me.

Right, Nightrain too, and it was fun.

I think for the moment, the use of WTTJ is a way to make the haters at the shows shut the fuck up. As soon as the riff starts everybody goes wild.

With CD as an opener for the moment, people wouldn't get in the show as they do with WTTJ or another classic. They don't know the song yet.

Yeah, Chinese Democracy would be a great opener once the cd becomes a household item.

I also think Better would make a great opener.  The opening chord is chilling.

yeah for sure, once the album comes out and people start to get to know the songs, that would be an awesome open, with the guitar intro and a whole lot of lasers and lights or some shit like that..

as someone else said, its good having WTTJ now considering people are still divided as to their loyalty with GNR and Axl, opening with that song makes everyone go crazy regardless of any differences..however once Chinese Democracy comes out, as he's already trying to do, they need to get away from the past and concentrate on the new material, so maybe by the time they announce an official tour for the album after its release, they can open with this

CD will not be the opener.  For a start, it's no where NEAR as good as Jungle.  And secondly, most of the people at the shows wont know CD.

So no.  Jungle is fine Smiley
