Used To Love Her and My Michelle have been played after Sweet Child at almost every show on this leg.


Fine by me.  i didn't get either of these at my show last July.  Hope to hear them in October this year


Quote

Sorry has been played only three times on this leg. Otherwise the setlists have been similar to the second part of the euro leg.


Sadly, my show last July was the first one to get this "oh, woe is me" piece of shit tune.  Please god, don't make me sit through it twice.

I actually like Sorry and think it is one of the best songs on CD. It is very powerful live.

On the "woe is me" theme, one could include from CD:

Better
Shacklers
This I love
Maddy
Street of Dreams
Scraped
IRS
There was a time

Shit, it's almost the whole CD. So don't pick on Sorry!  hihi

Sorry is a great tune musically, but the lyrics can be a bit... on the nose.

Come off it- those songs are incredible! This I Love I'm not too fussed about, but the others......

I still think Better was one of the highlights of the shows I saw.

Sorry sounded great on the Apollo theater broadcast, but before the reunion I always thought it was one of the worst songs they performed and made for a good bathroom break.

I think one Chinese song after the encore fits well. A treat for the chinese fans

Could be any song for me.

I'm a fan of the song Sorry too.

What I really enjoy about them playing it on the NITL tour is that as many times as everyone and their brother denies that it was directed at a certain lead guitarist who rejoined the band, IMO it's really fun as a fan to deny the denials and watch said guitarist playing the song we for the longest time all speculated it was about.  Lips Sealed

My Michelle is one of my favorite GnR songs.

I swear to holy hell they must somehow know I'm in the audience, because they skip it at my shows all the time. And this dates back to the 90's. I've seen GnR live 15 times, in various incarnations, now.  I've heard that song live exactly 3 times....

You totally misunderstood. I never said they were bad songs. I like them all. I was being humorous and speaking directly to theme. Get a sense of humor.

I agree about Better. Very powerful live.

Umm....pretty hard to spot humour in your post! How on earth could anyone get that you were being humourous  from those words?!

I'd wager I wasn't the only one to miss the humour in someone listing a load of songs they don't like but really do, unbeknown to the reader!

I'm of the view that the set could only be improved by more chinese material. Wonder why TWAT was off the cards after Dublin? Too difficult to nail vocally?

I'd wager you were the only one who missed the humor in his post.

He said he actually likes Sorry, "don't pick on Sorry!" AND used the laughing smiley.  I don't know how much clearer he could have been.

Just because CD is a woe is me album doesn't mean it's a bad album or that people don't like it.

Ok! I was thinking 'woe is me' referred to the way the crowd feel about hearing CD tracks, but we're talking lyrical content, right?

In that case-yeah, Sorry really is a 'woe is me' moment! But then so is a laege amount of all their material really, CD or otherwise.

TWAT has been a setlist rarity since it was first played in 2006 but even then with the 06-07 lineup it was only played twice!
They have played it on almost every tour since then. But only like couple times a year.
The tune sure seems like its super demanding vocal wise.
