What song will "GNR" open with now?

[Booker Floyd]

Im pretty sure "Welcome To The Jungle" is the permanent opener, as it should be.

[-Jack-]

Jungle to open and Paradise City to Close the show !!!!   

That's so predictable and boring.   

Agreed. With the exeption of maybe Rio, Guns should have no setlist.

[Karma_Police]

I think the band should open with Jungle but I think as they take the stage they should take the stage in the dark to a trance style Jungle remix. That would be cool.  I also think ending their shows with Paradise City has become such a cliche. I think maybe they should end the main set with PC but stop useing it to close out the shows. I don't feel Guns N' Roses has ever had a perfect song to close out their shows. They definately have a ton of songs that can open shows but nothing that really ends the show in an epic way. PC was good but it's been 20 years time for a change. Maybe TWAT to end the shows?

Exactly. Jungle gets the blood flowing.

[Walapino]

How about Paradise City as opener like they did in the Freddy Mercury TRibute show?

That would rock worlds!

[NickNasty]

Jungle- still the most effective opener.

[BaDoBsEsSiOn418]

Yeah, open with Paradise City...that would throw people off...

[gnr_12]

no.. i still lthink night train is SO effective..watch the UYI tour DVD's the intro is SICK

[1987]

wttj fires me up the most.. but i would like them to change up the setlist.. or atleast the order this time around.. i don't know how anyone can say that any of the new shows were even close to any of the old ones.. by the third show you pretty much new exactly what you were going to get.. don't get me wrong.. i went the vegas show and the nyc show.. both were awsome.. but it would have been so much cooler if they threw something a little diff in there.. like in one of the live coma boots i have.. axl leads into it by saying "we're gonna try somethng we haven't played in while..."  suprises like that make a concert so much better..

[awolgnr]

WTTJ followed by Chinese Democracy, then mix it up.  I liked that they started with WTTJ, played SCOm dead center and closed with PC.  Now if only they would ease up on the AFD album tracks a bit and play more new stuff. 

[HungerForChaos]

Start with The General, then end it with Prostitute.

[KIKO2K6]

Start with The General, then end it with Prostitute.

Its always cool ending whif Prostitute ... 

[Bono]

Wouldn't you guys shit your pants if as the crowd was getting anxious all of a sudden that massive heart beat from Coma rumbles through the arena for a prolonged 30 seconds or so and then the band proceeds to rip throgh Coma in it's entirety. I would literally shit myself.

I'm sure once they release the album, then two(by god if it ever happens), things will be shook up....

[Megaguns]

they should start opening with a UYI era song that didnt get played much back in the day,
Perfect crime or something

[noGnoG]

I hope for It's so easy, it's a cool song and regonisable for all fans, also for the ones who didn't watch Guns as closely as we did the past ten years. Then the set should exist of a minimum of 50% of new songs. And end with PC, because it's a traditional end and the outro leaves a lot of space for creativity of all members.

[ShotgunBlues1978]

WTTJ is the best way to open a show.  On the 2002 tour when they opened with it, one of the coolest parts of the show was when the lights went dim and the opening chords to WTTJ started playing.  Just an awesome feeling to hear those chords followed by Axl's "Do you know where you aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaare?"

man that would be so fuckin great but i don't see it happening 
 i think that if the tour will be to promote the album *fingers crossed* they should start with a new song, i would go for chinese democracy or a rocker thet we haven't heard yet.

[MR W,AXL ROSE]

i really cant see them opening with wttj again.its all been done before and im sure axl isnt goin to make a carbon copy of the 02 shows and play mostly old songs.i think youll find a host of new songs wether the album is released by then or not.also im hoping they open with a new song but if they dont then i suppose nightrain would be cool ?

[ShotgunBlues1978]

Hopefully they will play more new songs live than last time.  Here are the songs that seem mandatory, ones they should play for sure

WTTJ
Paradise City
Sweet Child
November Rain
You Could Be Mine

These are old hits they will play for sure.  New songs they will probably and hopefully play

Chinese Democracy
The Blues
TWAT
Better
Catcher In The Rye

That leaves 10 songs to play with if they have to play with.  Of course if everything goes well we'll have the new album by the time they tour  , so they can play around 8-10 songs from Chinese Democracy and 10-12 songs from the old albums
