Farewell & Rebirth

[wells]

I'll answer you Parabola.? I'm 32,? I first saw GNR in 1987.? This new band beats the living hell out of any other version.? I feel like I can speak to this, as I have seen 16 GNR shows over the last 19 years, every incarnation possible since 87.

I long for the day when there are no more then 4 appetite songs included in the setlist.? It will be the best for all involved.

great post  ...

Wow Smeagol you were 13 when you first saw them? Where was your first show? You must have seen some bad shows? I have seen them since 87, and i'm 38 i have seen some unbelievable shows at the Troubador, Roxy, LA Coliseum w/ the Stones, the LA Forum w/ Skid Row and many more, and the old band was awesome all of them, I can't wait to here more new stuff the new band is great to!!

I saw them open for Aerosmith.  Wasn't my first rock show, I saw Def Leppard when I was 10 and Quiet Riot and Ozzy when I was 11/12.  Saw old GNR (minus Adler) opening two nights of the illusion tour in Alpine Valley, and that was probably the best sounding of any formation of the old band.  These new guys are light years ahead in terms of musicianship, can't wait to listen to a record that's theirs.

The LA coliseum show sounded amazing so did the Pasadena Rose Bowl show, that night they did Estranged, the first time i saw them ever do it live, the old GNR, all formations were awesome, i do like the new band, but the old bluesy sound that Slash and Izzy gave it were great, the old band had the chemistry to go with the name, but don't get me wrong the new formation is also great!!!!
