Setlist Wishes: Now That We've Heard the Album

[Annie]

I'd like it to be like in the 90s when we didn't have to put up with the same rigid setlist throughout the entire tour.

Couldn't agree more.

Though I think This I Love segueing into November Rain would be amazing.

fuck yeah! like Dust In The Wind intro in 93, that would be mindblowing...

the MUST play every new song in the record in every show + jungle, SCOM, civil war/estranged and paradise city

I totally agree! I love every song on this record!

[NEWportTimbo]

I personally think Axl is going to totally revamp the setlist.

This is the true break from the old, and in with the new GNR.  Of course there will be some "standards", but I think you will be suprised at the amount of CD that is on the next tour.

I say that most, if not all the album is played.  Maybe even CD all the way through, followed by a modified classics set.  Or the classics mixed..

Encores
Mr. Brownstone(I like the drum intro for encore purposes, good encore song)
*rotated new song*
Paradise City

for rotated new songs - I'd pick between: Madagascar, If The World, Prostitute, This I Love, and IRS. I agree that This I Love would be ok too as an encore, with just Axl out playing the piano then the band kicking in...then do brownstone and PC

for rotated old songs: Id like to hear Rocket Queen, KOHD(maybe no longer a staple to me), Civil War, Out Ta Get Me, and maybe a cool cover they did in the day like Whole Lotta Rosie, or Dead Flowers...jsut to keep the set list movin night to night

I've decided to make one. It's Sunday! No space for Patience or It's So Easy

This is only if they tour in the very near future to promote the album. No point in promoting the album with another round of the Appetite For Nostalgia tour, but the classics can't be left out altogether...

November Rain - Estranged - This I Love trilogy is what i would love to see, its now my biggest dreams of new setlist.

Then i would only put 3 or 4 AFD songs there, 4 seems like suitable to me.

I added 11 new songs there, + 4 AFD songs and 4 UYI songs, that seems like my dream setlist.

Once again, my wishes:

- 3 or 4 AFD songs
- Couple rare UYI tracks like Estranged or Civil War + November Rain and Don't Cry.
- There has to be over 10 songs from chinese democracy, that's for sure.
- More changes to setlist like back in UYI tour. So no just same setlist and songs trough whole tour.

[Sillything]

i think they should do an iron maiden and play the entire album in order then add a few older songs (in rotation) on the end just for a first (smallish) tour then back to old ways mixing everything up for a much bigger tour

Good idea!

[Eazy E]

I'd say definitely open the show with Chinese Democracy and come back from a break with Jungle... In between, I say mix it UP.  None of this:  "Drop Song A and replace it with Song B"... play Think About You one night and play Shackler's Revenge the next.

...its a pretty even mix of all the records. The UYI records have gotten no love from the new lineup which is kind of sad, I really want to hear them play some of these tracks live on the next tour.

AFD - 7
Lies - 1
UYI I & II - 6
CD - 8

Old Staples: WTTJ, November Rain, Paradise City.  Have to play those 3.

rotate old songs, try incorporating some UYI stuff

play all of CD.

[axlsalinger]

If I was asked to create a reasonable setlist for the next tour (and yes, I think I should be hired for this job), it would look something like this:

1 - Welcome to the Jungle
2 - Better
3 - Chinese Democracy
4 - It's So Easy
5 - Mr. Brownstone
6 - Street of Dreams
7 - Catcher in the Rye (stripped down version)
8 - Estranged
9 - You Could Be Mine
10 - Shackler's Revenge
11 - Madagascar
12 - Sweet Child o' Mine
13 - November Rain (with This I Love lead-in)
14 - Sorry
15 - Breakdown
16 - Patience
17 - Nightrain
18 - Rocket Queen
19 - There Was a Time

ENCORE

20 - Prostitute
21 - Civil War
22 - The Song Remains the Same (any cool cover will do, but I'll go with Led Zep)

SECOND ENCORE

23 - Paradise City


Edit: Forgot about Nightrain! Sorry boys, I couldn't take anything out, so the show will need to be about 4 minutes longer!!

[brad1217]

I saw a couple people mention taking out some of the older songs/standards. If their "standards" that means they are standard to the setlist so they're not going anywhere. But I think it's kind of obvious which of the older songs will go (My Michelle, Outta Get Me) just to name a few. My only wish is that they have one less opening act next tour. I'm not EVEN implying that I think they should/could/ or would start their shows before Axl is ready but just have someone with a decent catalog play for about 90 minutes then set change, that puts you at around 9:30-10 for GNR to take their time to get on stage fashionably late and still play for 2.5+ hours. I also don't see them expanding the setlist to include more older songs but ya never know...............
