Axl's Baby (Estranged)

[thelostrose]

i don't want this topic to be anoter axl vs. slash-topic, but since there are just rumours, i was thinking about estranged this time. do you think that axl doesn't want to play or even hates estranged nowadays? i mean, he thanked slash for the killer solos in his baby and then - in axl's mind - he betrayed him. i know axl played other old songs too, but with estranged you know it's different.

IMO
Perhaps Axl hates identity losts. Thats perhaps one of the reasons he dont play it anymore. The  song dont fits in to the rest of the setlist.
Axl dont want "estrangements".

my guess is that axl wanna play what is classic gnr in a historic view- besides new songs
and afd is what seems to defining gnr that way...

maybe they wanna do the most obligatory gnrsongs instead of very personal since it's a newband?
what do you think?

maybe 4 future shows they bring back more from the illusions and estranged
love to hear the newbands version of that

i felt pissed when they didn't play this at london 2002 but got thinking, i remember reading that Axl had a load of new songs on Chinese Democracy that delt with his feelings about the whole Steph Seymore chapter in his life.

perhaps 'The Blues' is his new 'Estranged'??

i heard that axl doesn't play dont cry any more for a few reasons also, that it was about izzys girlfriend, and also that he chooses not to play it because it was one of the first original guns songs the band ever wrote. does anyone know if what i am talking about is true?

I dunno, I'd say Madagascar is his new Estranged. The lyrics are very emotional, and Axl's angelic voice totally adds to it. I don't know if I'm missing something, because I'm new here though. But man, I can't get enough of Madagascar!
