Axl giving the die hard fans their dream! What is greatest set list ever?

[Ja5oN]

2 sets, no encores, do away with WTTJ, SCOM, and PC. First song would be Night Train, last song would be Coma.

People would have a fit.  Bet you 70% or higher comes for just those songs!

Hell if were entering wish land here.....imagine they played CD from start to finish and then walked off.....I'de pay double to see that, but next tour I want my Rocket Queen, Estranged, etc. back in the mix....

[ITARocker]

My setlist:

Wttj
Easy
Mr Brownstone
Estranged
Scom
Cather in the Rye
Rocket Queen
Sorry
Oh My God
November Rain
Better
This I love
Nightrain
Don't Cry
Paradise City


no LALD and KOHD

[norway]

no LALD and KOHD

r u crazy!!! Why, cause it is not 'real' gnr-songs? tight set there btw. wttj = better opener than cd.

[Sosso]

I would love to see a setlist with Buckethead, Brain and Robin as special guests (on songs like Better, I.R.S. or Prostitute)

KOHD was ok in the 90's when their "new" live version with different chords, reggae time etc sounded fresh and enjoyable (the UYI version wasn't that good) . But fuckin with the original version of the song for about 12-13 min or even more is just too much in 2014  . LALD is good but not that great, imho. If it weren't for the pyros and axl's scream you wouldn't even notice that song was played at the shows  .

The setlist is straight but you can even put here and there some song  . That's just the core =D

I agree on the lenght of it. It's too long, but Axl's creative voice-acrobatics makes it a must to me. The diferent tonalities he added to it from 06 and on is simply godlike and is (arguably) the whole point of listening to the gnr-version of it.

It is a good song, but yeah; Axl's screaming on it is basicly the main reason.

Probably gonna get h8 for this, but I hate PC Also would have added shacklers revenge in the set.

btw, <3 the lald-intro from rio06

I'd like to see them for the whole set 

[gcluskey]

Don't Damn Me would be an awesome song to hear live

If he did a Vegas residency again and one of the shows was "One time only: Chinese Democracy in its entirety, special guests Brain Mantia and Buckethead", it would be interesting to see what ticket sales would be.

[FreddieJames]

Okay, here's my dream setlist....played by all members who were once part of GnR. So played by the artist that performed it on the recording:

Welcome To The Jungle (nothing better than that opening riff getting you pumped)
It's So Easy
You Could Be Mine

Dust N Bones
Bad Obsession
You're Crazy
Pretty Tied Up
14 Years
Sweet Child O Mine
Breakdown (am I the only who likes this song?)
Civil War

Don't Cry
November Rain
Estranged
Coma

Chinese Democracy
Attitude
So Fine
Better
Ain't It Fun


One In A Million (I'd kill for this one to be played live - and no, I do not agree with its lyrics, it's just an extremely powerful song)
Patience
Dead Horse
Street of Dreams

There Was A Time
Since I Don't Have You
Catcher In The Rye

Rocket Queen
Paradise City

[russkwtx]

^That's a pretty damn good set list you have there.

[norway]

One In A Million (I'd kill for this one to be played live - and no, I do not agree with its lyrics, it's just an extremely powerful song)

It's a misunderstood song imo. It questions a societal matter and has strong language. Also wanna hear it again (not gonna happen I am pretty sure tho) cause the song is pretty good musicly. Axl at the end...

Breakdown (am I the only who likes this song?)

No

Coma

You gonna give Axl a heart-attack

Would be a good song for the band, but imo he didn't do this song justice live in the 90' so not sure if it would work.

[FreddieJames]

Thanks! I thought it was too off track....but it's basically a mixture of all my favorite GnR songs!

I think it's a misunderstood song (One In A Million), but it lays bare the fact that Axl was just a 'white boy' learning how the world works. I would love to learn his current opinion on this song.... Buy yeah, One In A Million is the only song in the world that makes me feel like I am not the only one who struggles with all this shit you get thrown at you every day.....Therefore, I love it.

[Ja5oN]

I just listened to Coma about 5 times in a row.  If I ever saw that LIVE and they pulled it off....man I might die.  Such an epic song.  They must have known it wasn't a touring song when they recorded it.

[Billo]

I used to think I didn't want to hear LALD and NKHD live but there awesome live.. the pyro and November goes real fast.. but im not sure what my perfect set list would be exactly
but I've always really loved to hear Aint it fun live.. so that's a must for me
