What songs should Gnr cut from the set list when they tour again?

[dave-gnfnr2k]

I am sure gnr is going to cut the set list in half for the old songs and release them with CD songs.
So what songs would you like to see axl cut from the set list.
I dont think he will add more old songs, so lets not add anymore just subtract.

[IndiannaRose]

I really hope there won't be a setlist. I would rather Axl just play the songs he (or the band) feel like playing a specific night and play them. (just like the Use Your Illusion Tour) That way, each show of the tour would be unique in its own special way. Although, I would definately play more material from the Illusions and less material from Appetite. (and a whole lot more from Chinese Democracy)

[MrProxy]

Hard to say but i would drop
Live and let die
out ta get me
think about you
well maybe Its so easy too

Hell no, they can't drop Live and Let Die. That is one of their signature songs. (and one of their major top 40 hits) It would be a very bad idea to drop that song.

IF (not "when") they tour again they should drop most of the new "songs" which are just inaudible :
- Silkworms
- Chinese demo.
- Oh my god
- Riyad and Bed.

The Blues and Madagascar are OK without being masterpieces. They are not better than Breakdown or Estranged...

If you don't like the new stuff why are you on this board? I think both The Blues and Madagascar are better than Breakdown but not Estranged.

They should drop Think about u, Mr Brownstone, Kncking on Heavens door, out ta get me, and erm....Silkworms.

I am here because this band is still called "Guns N'Roses" and it happened to be that I am a Guns N'Roses fan since 1989... Just as simple as that, man !

that is weird man, by that rational I should be a Metallica fan right now and I would be listening to St.Anger  ...needless to say I stopped checking out Metallica's music when they stopped making good music.

So , NO , I guess its hard to understand why somebody would be posting on a GNR forum just because the band is still called 'Guns N' Roses'


I would like to hear a lot more from the Illusions myself, and a little less from AFD. But I would be happy if they played CHIDEM SONGS  for a change
 

[Shotgun]

I think they should drop My Michelle, Think about you , Mr. Brownstone and maybe LALD.
It's hard to choose, we want to hear some more from the illusions and we want a whole bunch of new songs, but we also want to hear the classics.

They must play for 4 or 5 hours to make all satisfied.

[Eppe]

This was the set list on their last show in 2002:

Welcome To The Jungle, It's So Easy, Mr. Brownstone, Live And Let Die, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, Think About You, You Could Be Mine, Sweet Child O' Mine, Out Ta Get Me, November Rain, Chinese Democracy, Madagascar, Rocket Queen, The Blues, My Michelle, Patience, Nightrain, Paradise City

So if they play about 8-10 new songs when they tour, they must drop about 8 old songs. I would drop:
Mr.  Brownstone
Live And Let Die
Knockin' On Heaven's Door
Think About You
My Michelle
Patience
 

It's really hard to decide, because I love all those songs... maybe they will have a different setlist everynight.

Hey, son of a preacher,
Are you saying that I should leave because this band called "Guns N'Roses" ain't doing good music anymore ?

[SON OF A PREACHER]

Hey, son of a preacher,
Are you saying that I should leave because this band called "Guns N'Roses" ain't doing good music anymore ?

hey, you can do whatever you want, if you want to stay here and bash the band, that's Jarmo's problem, not mine , Im just saying you are not making much sense here... if you dont like the music....why come? ...I dont understand..like I said...Im not posting on the Metallica forums.

I think the new GNR is making wonderful music btw....

 

[jarmo]

Hey, son of a preacher,

Yeah, you seem to be here only to whine about the new band. It gets old really fast.

People like you usually feel more at home at a message board where they hate Axl.

[Mr Cowbell ?]

out ta get me
think about you

There are so many better songs then those two

Knocking oN Heaven's Door can go to, now that they have another slower version of the song

Silk worms, it just is a bad song wether it be GnR or another band it doesnt go over well

All the new Bullshit No I am not talking about their new songs because they kick ass I am talking to the two bucket solos, buckethead playing with fn' knunechuks and Fink's wierd Brazilian solo song.  Solos are ok, but they take so much time that could be filled by great GnR songs old and new

What songs are you talking about Bro?

[Rhythm-n-Booze]

I think they should drop all AFD tunes. I mean if they wanna open with WTTJ or something then fine, but I'd be pretty disappointed if on their next tour, whenever that may be, they still perform a ton of AFD. I wanna hear some shit from the new album.

[badobsession81]

the previous poster's name has inspired me to say that they should drop the old songs based on cowbell usage! - keep in all those that have cowbell and oust the rest!!

Long live the cowbell! Has anyone checked ouit silvertide? they have the swagger of old guns, but obv a bit bouncier (no where near as cool and hard edged as guns was) but at least they use the cowbell!! Their albums should be stickered "The first band since gnr to use cowbell!"

I love the cowbell!

Um, sorry for that...
In all seriousness (I do love the cowbell though!) I'd base it on how well i think the new band handle the old songs...
I'd lose one of the covers - so KOHD out, cuz I like the way LALD is performed now - Axl sounds great
Crucial appetite songs have got to be Sweet child, jungle
It'd be good to have the rest on rotation: i.e. easy, brownstone being played most nites (nearly listed these as crucial!)
and the rest rotated: patience, you're crazy (love to hear an acoustic version), rocket queen (sometimes, mixed feelings on this, the first part was prev very slash focused, but the l;ast part is def axl, although i didnt think he sang it terribly well on this new tour - no edge like b4) etc

Anyway, thats that. Bob

I think it's safe to assume that he is saying that it would be good to hear songs from Chinese Democracy of different pace...Without necesarily knowing what those songs are yet.

knocking on heavens door, live and let die and al those awful covers
