May 15th show thread POST YOUR REVIEWS IN THE GNR ON TOUR SECTION PLEASE!

So three guitars are for NEW guns yet the set is 80 per cent old material... so by that logic one guy stands there with his finger up his ass for most of the show - OK.?

Why use three guys to play Slash's solos... because obvioulsly one alone can't cut it!

even though the old material used to be played live with 2 guitarists, more often than not the studio version had 3-4 or even 5 or more guitar parts....plenty of stuff to play

if you take a look at any gnr sheet music you'll see that

That's true  I have a GNR tab book and ther's like 5 guitars in some songs

What the fuck are YOU talking about? So three guitars are for NEW guns yet the set is 80 per cent old material... so by that logic one guy stands there with his finger up his ass for most of the show - OK.

Ok, you really don't have a clue. Don't talk about what you don't know.

Not only that, but also they will not play "80% old material" forever.

So we need two more guitarists standing by for those then?

What is laid down in the studio and live are two completely different animals, so guitar tab books mean nothing in the live stakes. The bottom line is i believe the NU Guns need two lead players because Finck isn't good enough on his own to do justice to the man known as Mr Slash. ?

No bottom line is the new songs were written with 3 guitarists in mind so they have 3 guitarists

from what i saw on friday, robin can easily handle any slash solo with no problems, and all while diving head first into the crowd

[GNRslave]

i went to the show last night, and while i thought it was a good show, i felt a little embarrassed when i heard robin and richard play christina aquileras "beautiful." there is no reason for them to play this at a gnr concert. dont get me wrong, i love and accept this new band just as much as the next person, but i thought that was horrendous!! there were also waaaaaaaaaay too many guitar solos (5 i believe) it killed the momentum of the show...the friday show(5/12) was unbelievable, a 10 imo, last nights was about an 8. ok im done, just wanted to say that i was a little disappointed n  hope they cut a few solos out for the next show!!

Regardless on how much that song sucks, Robin, and Fortus are basically telling the audience

"Thats right people, we are cover artists, we cant write our own stuf we could only add and slighhty change what the real artist are writing"

Which is why they Must play the new songs more during the set so i dont get an e-mail review from VH1 that says

"Guns N' Roses Live: Basically Axl With A GN'R Cover Band, But Great Anyway
And the band hit the stage just an hour and 15 minutes late!"

the video's a whole different talking point though 

[Deadfeat]

I do not know why people are missing this, and if someone pointed it out I apologize, but I was there last night and The Blues was played also, earlier in the show, somewhere in between Better and November Rain. It was definitly played...so new songs last night were Better, The Blues, Madagascar, IRS, and Chinese Democracy.

Hope someone will second this because they played The Blues for certain.

Deadfeat.

[AxlFink]

they should change the set a lot for the last show.... Open with Paradise!  Close with November Rain! 

[DizzyReed63]

Yea, they played the Blues last night.
The crowd was so much more intense Monday night than Sunday, especially to the new tunes.

HEY HAS NE1 HEARD THAT SLASH MIGHT JOIN UP WITH AXL DURING THE TOUR!!!!!!!!! O GOD I HOPE SO B/C ILL BE THERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE MOSHH PIT!!!! [

[Guns N RockMusic]

Last nights show was amazing.  I was right on the rail, centered on the 2nd Mezz.  Anyone who talks shit on Robin obviously wasn't there cause that guy is amazing.  I have so much more respect and admiration for him after these shows.  Everyone was so into the songs and it was special being in a venue that small to see Guns cause you know that'll never happen again.  Wait untill the full audio is ready for download and you'll agree as well.
