I don't think they can. It's still Guns N' Roses and they still have to play the standards for the majority of audience.
But as a nice special release gig, it would be pretty fucking cool.

Would u guys be mad or angry if the new band
came on stage in 2008 with only new songs.
no wttj, nov rain, Paradise city, patience nightrain.
an all new setlist full of new songs by the new band alone. no more covers (perhaps Kohd as the only one or Sailing)
would U love it, would it sel?
I wouldn't love it, and I don't think it would sell. I was *thrilled* to hear new material live, but I also loved hearing Guns material that I knew, loved, and grew up on. I'm all for the balance shifting to the new material in concert - especially once future album(s) are released - but there should always be some acknowledgement of the songs, and the fans of the songs, that built Guns n Roses into the legendary band they are, and continue to be.

I would also love it they did something like metallica has been doing for over a decade.
some Escape from the studio tours. and just play songs they love and can play. (nothing to do with gnr) perhaps songs they listen to or somethign like that.

They can when the crowd want them to. and that's, again, Guns N Roses by a long shot.
after a couple of releases, I believe it stands a fair chance.

I think they could, but they would probably have to play at smaller venues for some time

I like this idea ^^^
Still, I'd like to see a few other Illusion songs in the mix...while keeping it CD centric. Something like this.
Chinese Democracy
Welcome to the Jungle
You Could Be Mine
Don't Cry
CD ROCKER
CD MID-TEMPO
The Blues
Civil War
Dead Horse
CD ROCKER
CD MID-TEMPO
There Was a Time
Sweet Child O'Mine
Sympathy for the Devil
CD ROCKER
Estranged
Nightrain
ENCORE:
Patience
CD EPIC SONG (ala NR, Coma, Estranged)
Paradise City
Sympathy For The Devil? Interesting.....
But anyway, i'd love to see a show mainly focused around Chinese Democracy, but i'd still want them to play Welcome To The Jungle, Sweet Child O' Mine, You Could Be Mine, and Paradise City, as they're my favourite GN'R tracks, along with Estrnaged, but i doubt they'd play that live if they're doing stuff like TWAT and Madagascar
Don't Cry and November Rain would be nice as well....

My stance stays the same on GNR concerts. They're my favorite band and I'd so see them anytime they are performing anywhere near me. Even if the came here and played all covers, old old tunes, all new tunes... whatever. If GNR is playing live and I can get to them, I will

Axl Rose just needs to release his album and bite the bullet. You can try to rationalize and make excuses, but at the end of the day - a promise is a promise - and if you go back on your word, fine, but that doesn't change the fact that it's going back on your word; there's no other way around it.

whatever the setlist is, I'd wanna hear jungle opening the set, no matter how many times I've seen it, hearing that opening riff followed by Axl's scream never gets old.

Perhaps, I'm selfish, but I haven't seen the band in years, and I want to hear a mix of old and new.

It stands to reason that the vast majority gotta say the set they got at a GNR show left nothing to be desired.
But won't you feel otherwise in ...say 2012, after you see several shows of the mixture and get 20 plus mind blowing new songs in your player?
Wait, you didn't see a GNR show in 2006? How come!

No
I think it would be quite refreshing AND ballsy for them to do it
Especially if this album is actually released by the time they tour ( perish the thought)
