Setlist suggestions...

[mikegiuliana]

Time to leak more songs or release a damn single? ?

damn right leaks equal change in setlist

mean bone man you didn't have to be so nasty..

Not everyone comes here the way some do ,so not every topic is old to them,..

I remember when vr had one album (well still do) people bitched about setlist ,new gnr has tons of material, it's easy to switch up from time to time..

[Slashead]

Woah Meanbone you seem so self-confident... Very impressive.

How does it feel being an "internet gladiator" ? Is your ass at least seated comfortably to decree who is a fan and who is not ?

Look Spartacus, if you don't like this thread, why don't you post somewhere else ? There are enough threads for the groupies, me thinks...

Once again for the millionth time......the setlist isn't catered to a bunch of people hunkered behind a computer screen waiting to download the latest phone mp3 of a song.? The setlist is for the people all over the world who go to see GNR perform once.? Maybe you should go start trading Greatful Dead bootlegs??

You're right, these GNR shows are for the people with no interest in the new album and no knowledge of who's in the band. And that's exactly why these gigs are a huge letdown for some of the bigger fans.

Whoa there cowboy, stop putting words into my mouth. ? So far everyone's been pretty stoked at these gigs regardless of the setlist. ?You touched on one little thing, maybe a lot of the people don't know who's exactly in the band, but they go and they see them perform and they're like goddamn these guys can play, now I can't wait for the new album. ?So before you go saying these shows are a "huge letdown" go read all the reviews and go watch a show for yourself. ?They fucking rock and they rock with purpose. ?Like I said, just because you're addicted to this message board doesn't make you the say so in what people think about GNR. ?If you feel the need to live in the past and shit, then by all means go lock yourself in a fucking closet and listen to some concert from 1988......then maybe you'll be happy and you can let Axl stick to doing what he does....well you know...since he's the star and you're well....some guy bitching about how the same setlist night after night sucks blah blah. ?If you knew anything about touring...I'm not even gonna go into that, enjoy your closet and 19-whenever. ?

i haven't seen u in ages estranged. thanks for sticking up 

[ppbebe]

Not yet.

[Sober_times]

I haven't seen GN'R since 2002, and the way the current set list is going I would like to hear it..Im hoping they do a few shows in the U.S. this fall with this kind of setlist before cd comes out so I can see it, than change it up after cd comes out so I can see it again with a cd heavy set-list. Of course this is assuming the rest of Cd is as good as what we've heard.?

i miss rocket queen

[mikegiuliana]

i miss rocket queen

one of the best tunes..... I heard it live...

I want less afd simply because it's a new band, if it was old give me the ritz show again..

[badapple81]

I think we forget that we might follow each setlist on the internet each day, but each of these audiences is seeing it as a once off.

[zigthis]

Just some random thoughts re the setlist - not complaining, just daydreaming.? If the tour swings back this way (east coast US), folks would obviously like to see something different - here's some suggestions:

* Drop 'Live and Let Die' and 'Knockin on Heaven's Door':? I think he's playing these two because they're widely recognizable songs that older folks and parental 'chaperones' would appreciate.? IMO they're stale and too reminiscent of Slash.? I think the show would be served better if Rose picked up some 'new' oldies - we'd still recognize them, but they'd be 'fresh' as well..

* More 'Use Your Illusion':? There seems to be only two originally written Illusion songs in the show ('You Could be Mine' and 'November Rain').? Adding 'Civil War' and/or 'Coma' would be nice.? If Izzy returns, use '14 Years' or 'Dust & Bones' in place of his Appetite songs.

* More punk:? I was lucky enough to catch 'Down on the Farm' at the Baltimore show, but still would have loved to see 'Reckless Life'? or something else from Like a Suicide or Spaghetti Incident.? Punk always gets the crowd moving..

* Make 'There Was a Time' standard fare:? This song rocks, period.

[COMAMOTIVE]

I could'nt agree more about dropping Heaven's door and Live and Let die

I could'nt agree more about adding Illusion songs. I love those albums to death.

I disagree about adding more punk type stuff

I love TWAT and would love to hear it, as a matter of fact I would love to hear all of the newer stuff played every night

But like the Stones say " you can't always get...

[Jim Bob]

yea this thread has never been done before. 

[horsey]

i think it is up to axl n' the band really whats played.

[LunsJail]

I would definitely agree about dropping LALD, however I think Knockin is too much of a classic to drop completely (maybe every other night would be good).

I wouldn't get your hopes up on the Illusion stuff. ?Axl has hinted in the past (Eddie Trunk) that he feels the majority of fans don't favor this material. ?And Coma is a Slash song so I'd say no hope of that being played.

But like you said, only daydreaming.

when did he hint that people didnt want the illusions material? i didnt hear that one....

[COMAMOTIVE]

. ?And Coma is a Slash song so I'd say no hope of that being played.

The music may be Slash's baby, but Axl's lyrics, singing and emotion take the song way above where it was ever intended to go

exactly. one of the best songs ever. the lyrics are ALL axl's....but yes, those riffs are very powerful......how great would it be if they busted it out? ok, ill go back to sleep....

Don't get me wrong, it's one of my GNR favorites.  I just wouldn't get hopes up about it being played again.  That way we'll be awesomely surprised if it is.

I'd love to see Garden Of Eden.
