I think Axl had enough rants without including get in the ring to the set list

Time is always short when ur playing live - somethings gotta give and Get in the ring and Don't damn me were songs that certainly applied too - don't forget there were better songs like Coma and Locomotive they were trying to fit in somewhere

Yeah espially when GnR songs are longer then other rock songs. Most are epics. Get in the Ring is nice, but if I went to a concert and had to give up COMA for it that would suck.

I would of liked to hear it, but as said before if i had to give up other great songs for it i'd pass.

Dont Damn Me should have been played though. That is one of the most underrated GN'R songs.

No.

No, it probably was after the show when they thanked the crowd.

They said they never played it live because they said what they needed to say in the song.

i went to see a GN'R cover band last week and they played "Get In The Ring", it came off really well, especially the outro with everyone shouting get in the ring..get in the ring...get in the ring.

I think GITR was made just for Axl to bash the journalists.I know part of It was writen by Duff but probbly Axl took it and aded his lyrics.And then when the album came out he had already said what he wanted so he didn?t needed to play it live.

That sounds like a good reason also.
