What are you talking about? They played it in Philly in '02 and Portland Maine in '06.

yup and i was there for both...not my cup of tea and it was quite uncivil.....

How is it that people are claiming this song was played at these two shows when it has never been played live by the new band ever?

It's a joke. 2002 was a riot, and '06 was canceled.

I think this would be a great song to play. Yes, it would stir up some controversy. To add even more fire, they should change "Chinese Democracy" to "Iraqi Democracy".

GNR needs a little fire.

I agree the previous poster. I think Axl is avoiding the song because of the current war.  Regardless if he's just playing the song for the fans, I'm sure all the pundits will spin it to say that Axl's making some anti-war statement.  The last thing Axl needs is more fabricated negative press. 

People get pissed at just about anything nowadays. 

Does anyone remember the protest against Peter Jackson for naming the 2nd LOTR movie "The Two Towers?"  Idiots thought he was making a 9/11 reference even though it was the name of the book written 50 years ago.

Add me to the "feel like an ass" category.... I wasn't even thinking when I was replying.

Now that I get it.....lol...
