[UPDATES] April 20, 2016 ? Foro Sol, Mexico City

Im very happy the band is, little by little, playing ChiDem songs. The GNR fans that have spent years saying ChiDem was not GNR must be very confused after seeing Slash and Duff playing them very zealously and proudly

But I'd rather they swap them out for each other through.

For example, instead of 'This I Love' being the every night staple, with a pick between 'Coma' and 'There Was a Time', I would rather 'Coma' be the staple and the alternating being between 'This I Love' and 'There Was A Time'.

Don't TIL and TWAT fill, basically, the same role?  NuGNR songs with meaty guitar parts Slash can put his own spin on?

Agree 100 percent.

On last night's setlist... if that was played in Nashville, I'd be happy sure. I mean I'll take whatever I guess, but I'd also be alittle bummed.

"Civil War" is probably my favorite Gn'R song, it is definitely in the top 5. "Coma" I've never heard live obviously and I like that song a good amount. TWAT is a good song, but I've never been a huge fan.

Never really cared for "Yesterdays". So far for me, this is the worst setlist they've done. It's still a really good setlist yes, but we all have our preferences and I'd be missing Civil War and Coma at the Nashville show over these.

YOu can't be choosy I guess. Axl sounds fantastic. The band sounds awesome!

For those, like me, obsessed with that song (I think TWAT is the best GNR song ever written)

I for one am not confused at all.  I think they like the challenge of playing something new, it probably keeps things fresh and interesting for them.  I also think Axl was/is pretty adamant about including non-original-GNR material.  Excluding that material would kinda be admitting defeat.  And of course, those songs are probably pretty important and personal to him.

However, TWAT can never be the best GNR song ever written, for all the obvious reasons !

[Thorned Rose]

I agree. TWAT is a good song, but you really can't say with any validity that it is the "best song".

I guess maybe to you it could be. I'm talking objectively here. I don't think that it could be. Universally people don't think that.

Them playing CD songs is cool, I think Nikki hit the nail on the head

[Spirit]

More videos will surface within the next day I guess, put links to the ones I've found so far in 1st post.

HOLY. FUCK. EPIC. SLASH. TWAT. SOLO.

[jamillos22]

They'll never cease to surprise us. I love these times.

[JAEBALL]

HOLY. FUCK. EPIC. SLASH. TWAT. SOLO.

Since this happened...that was the one song from CD I was looking forward to the most. I always thought Slash would take the song to new heights. So cool.

In a way it almost bums me out that they (Slash and Duff) missed out on CD and couldnt compromise on 12 songs at the time...but no point in looking back now! Hearing and seeing Slash crush those songs make me so excited about the prospects of him collaborating on unreleased songs like it's been rumored.

Amazing pictures of the crowd in Mexico! Props to all of you who sat out there in the rain all night!

Both Coma and TWAT are very hard songs vocally. Too many lyrics and no space between them.

Slash did a very good job on this one.

I think coma suits better axl's vocals, on twat axl still struggles to manage the song, and i don't understand why...first part should be easy to sing but it seems he can handle the last part where he screams better than the first part 

[Voodoochild]

Did we ever get a setlist with Don't Cry, November Rain, Estranged, Yesterdays, This I Love and TWAT at the same time?

[Jbat81]

ok, but... WHY not using Richard, considering the immense talent he has? it's like having Leo Messi on the field and putting Jordi Alba to take the free kicks!

I think it's more like having Messi on the field and putting Pele to yake free kicks!! Ha! Lol. I see ur point tho Esteban...

How about the rasp on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sR9xaZhvzs

As close to his best in at least 5 years!

I think we did June 2014, and had prostitute in there.  His voice was awesome in 2014 June shows after being average in prior months, but his voice is unreal and better each show.

Cannot believe how good he is singing!

[gunsbetterthanever]

Paris 92 voice here:  Not great quality but listen to AXL!

Swapped Twat for Coma...nahhhhh  bummer. Hope when they come to Brazil this won`t happen.

[Malcolm]

So cool to see Yesterdays and There Was A Time

[Sosso]

Four songs from Chinese Democracy - amazing

[JDA]

thank you!!!

link please

Slash solo on TWAT sounds very close to the original version (sure, with his own feeling and licks).

Yeah, just heard it on the Periscope recorded. Sounds better to me than his TIL take.

First off, that is cool. Love Slash's touch on the newer songs. Makes them better in my opinion, but liked them before too.

I bet Finck, Bucket and Fortus also think it is cool to see Slash playing their parts. I bet they are also thinking, lets see how Slash likes playing other people's parts:)) Funny how that all works out.

[GNRVahland]

Swapped Twat for Coma...nahhhhh  bummer. Hope when they come to Brazil this won`t happen.

I also want both...Coma AND Twat  

More must haves: Civil war, Estranged, Double talking jive, Yesterdays, Down on the farm, Whole lotta Rosie, Rhiad, OMG, Silkworms ...and the rest of Chinese Democracy

Wondering if Sorry will be played again...guess not.
