Axl at the rehearsal this morning (Greek time) , from GNR Instagram account. with no sound.

Maybe a new song, or a one we haven't heard for a while.

Looking at those videos a few times, I'm going to go out on a limb and say it looks like he may be singing IRS.

Anyone else?

The James Brown number was.. pretty random, don't you think?
It's nice, but not something I'd expect GN'R to play.

New theory: They're working on another covers album!

Looking at the setlist I can't see anything taken out- were the covers just additions?

So since early Europe we've had added. on a regular basis:

Patience AND Don't Cry (not either/or as it used to be)
Rosie
Yesterdays
Used To Love Her
WLM
I Feel Good

Sorry (semi-regularly)

So six songs more, on a nightly basis.  Is that right? Has anything LEFT the set?

Well they havent played Catcher and Raw Power in a long time, but they were never regulars.

Sorry was added during the Asia/Pacific leg. And Yesterdays and during the South America leg.


Outta Get Me was a regular on the 2016 US tour then on later it was either My Michelle or Outta. Now on the 2017 US stadium leg My Michelle is the regular one.

OK- but basically the set is about 6 songs longer? It basically seems to grow throughout the tour. A bit gutting for us Europeans!

Correct.
The shows shortest shows were about 2,5h or less and longest shows have been around 3,15h or more So almost an hour more show.

I do have to admit it seems a little odd that they'd take the time to learn, practice and rehearse two more covers, given the large amounts of their own material not in the set.

Not necessarily against it, but it seems a strange decision!

Post by: Executioner on August 31, 2017, 09:50:35 AM
In fairness I don't think anyone who attends a GnR gig can accuse them of being left short changed and with only 4 albums of original material it must be hard to choose songs that actually work in an football stadium where 90% wanna hear the hits and best known songs,but 11covers on the last gig is a bit OTT ,Axl must have a massive vault  of songs stashed away in some crypt that they could throw one or two in and play more of the illusions albums ,they only played 8 from a possible 30.

I know it won't be a popular opinion, but I'd be okay with that. Covers have always been a rich rock tradition (as have cover albums). They've got a ton of stuff to choose from at this point, so why not? I don't think it would take much away from an album of original material since there'd be no songwriting process. Just go into a studio, bang out the covers they've done live over the past few years, put out a disc.

Not random at all for Axl. 
Over the past decade, Axl has thrown in bits n' pieces of I Got You (I Feel Good) in a number of shows.
However, as far as I know, this is the first time he has performed the entire song.

It was the topic of discussion in this thread from 2006.

Post by: ITARocker on August 31, 2017, 06:48:55 PM
I think  i feel good  is just a "fuckin' around" song, i don't think it's really needed. Axl should do monster vocals (and this is not the case, i appreciate the soft rasp but it doesnt fit with the mood of the song) to make great this song in a hard rock concert, i think it's just out of context

Among all this covers I'd like to listen to again "sailing" by rod stewart in wich his clean voice sounds good
But I'd rather listen to something "new" (oh my god rearranged)

Fair enough, but still, unlike other covers(KOHD, Sympathy) they just "played" it, didn't really out something of their own into it, you know?
They haven't made it a GN'R tune

I'd agree. It was more 'covers band' than their usually style of taking covers and giving it a GNR twist. I enjoyed it, as far as it goes, but I really don't think it should be part of the regular set.
