Setlist predictions / dreams / wishes for 2016

[D-GenerationX]

Yeah, I'm more interested in some UYI material getting dusted off, personally.

[Thorned Rose]

At the end of the day, I'll be thrilled with whatever they choose to play. I'm just glad this is happening.

I personally don't want more than 1 or 2 covers at the most. 1 cover if I could pick the setlist. (This doesn't count the actual recorded covers like KOHD and LALD)

Chinese Democracy songs? I'm totally cool with a couple or maybe up to 4, but I think most people that are coming to these shows are wanting the older material. They were already playing older material anyways the last several years, just simple cut back 2-3 CD songs, through in UYI era stuff and add a couple more to make the show a little longer.

Like I've said before in general something like this is what we will probably see.

6-8 AFD
1 Lies
UYI I maybe 5
UYI II maybe 5 or 6
CD 2-4 songs
2 covers

Something in that area is probably what will happen. If this is a "true" reunion of the band, we might 1 or 2 new songs too in there.

I'd be happy with them just playing older stuff and some CD stuff and whatever. I would like for this to be a true reunion where they throw in a couple new things, and push a new album announcement and jsut fucking do it man.

Slate it for fall 2016. I mean fuck. How long does it take to record an album? Axl/Slash/Duff and whoever else they get in there can get a high quality album done in 2 months maybe 3 I think.

WIshful thinking

Seems a nice mix to me. But camon man, TSI stuff needs to be there. I love Raw Power and I'm dying to hear Aint it Fun for the first time live.

How long does it take to record an album?

You're asking the wrong band.

Return of Riad N the Beduins. Everyone hated it, I thought the live version was cool. Sucks they only played it a handful of times before the album was actually released. Right Next Door would be a cool return too. A depending how good his voice is, perfect crime

Count me out. I've always loved the song. And like I said before, I think the song is the closest to the description of "AFD on steroids" to me because of the excelent guitar riffs and awesome drums.

'Perfect Crime' is probably a big ask.

Other hand, if he actually can do that one, these shows are going to be awesome.

I simply just don't expect the set list to change much from the last time Axl performed...

If Axl wanted to play Perfect Crime or Pretty Tied Up over the last 20 years ... he would have....

I hope the addition of Slash opens up the set list a little bit... but I don't necessarily expect it to.

Largely agree.

We might get 1 or 2 more UYI songs we haven't heard in a bit.  'Dead Horse', maybe.  Something like that.

[Thorned Rose]

yeah Down on the Farm gotta get played. its awesome. I kinda forgot about that.

I do think in a sad way the setlist might be just very typical. 3 covers, and the general stuff you'd think.

Bad Obsession, Pretty Tied Up, Breakdown, Locomotive and Don't Damn Me are those darkhorse songs that are just fantastic that dont' get played.

Just open the with this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvFP7fhKEO0 😘

I get the feeling that Axl associated a few songs off of the UYI albums with individuals.   Now that they are all back together I think we may hear a few more rarities

[Continental_Drift]

I could see some interest in a TSI? song or two from casuals. Rightly or wrongly- there are two TSI? songs on Greatest Hits- and "SIDHY" (though seriously doubt they break that out) did have a video with fairly decent MTV play if I remember correctly. Anyway- TSI? is pretty much Classic Guns' Undercover IMHO. "Down on the Farm"- or Duff playing "Raw Power" and/or "Attitude" could give the shows a little "rarity" factor. I'd be all for it.

Meanwhile- no idea what plans may be for Chinese material. "Better" would probably have the best shot of translating (IMHO)- but who knows...

[Thorned Rose]

Yeah the greatest hits album got it right.

You get all the legitimate hit songs, with Sympathy. The only one that kinda hit was "Nightrain"

is was a mild hit.

So basically play the GH album live, maybe without Ain't it Fun and Sympathy then add UYI and CD songs. Easy start.

I wouldn't prefer this myself, I'd want more appetite songs.

[crash_diet]

Well, i d like to see "give in to me" played live by GnR! Axl would be amazing on this..it s one of my favourites among slash's tunes outside old guns..

There is one cover I would love to see Axl and Slash doing it again: Dust in the Wind. Loved that rendition.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yu26EC7bZnA

[ITARocker]

Do you think they will do the old gnr KOHD version with the reggae time?
