New 2018 set list

[jarmo]

The thing is, they changed the setlist nearly every damn night on the UYI tour and that was before we had Youtube videos of every show.

Were the shows 3.5-4 hours long every night?

For illustrative purposes, let's say you have 30 songs to choose from. If you play those 30 songs at each show, it's going to be the same. Now, if you play 15 songs each show, then suddenly that changes. Now you'll have people saying "They change the setlist!"....

Do you pay to eat the same food all night?

Do you go see every show?

Or do you just complain that the meal that is offered to others is similar day to day?

If one does go to every show by your rationale, does that entitle them to hope or even expect things to be changed up a little?

And no I don’t consider one song difference between a massive run of shows to be ‘changing’ things.

Axl himself has said he prefers the CD songs because they feel fresher. I suppose that’s a fair enough comment, given they are only roughly 20 years old, rather than 30, but his words are somewhat different to his actions as he then proceeds to play the exact same stale set night after night.

They do a fine job I know having seen it many times personally, but one has to wonder about a band that for years starts with the same song, plays them in the same order and finishes with the same song every single night, just how much creativity there really is...

If you attend every single show, then you have a point. If you don't attend any shows but just read setlists online, it's a bit different....

I get it, if you attend one show and they don't play the one song that's your favorite, you obviously might feel like something was missing. I get that.

We're talking about personal preferences and opinions here.

I missed the supposed new setlist. What did it have?

The average NITL show is not 3.5-4 hrs. And on the UYI tour, the longest show was 3.5 hrs, so that argument doesn't really fly.

I think the average was 3.5-4 at the end of the tour last year.

Same old set list, but it’s not believed to be authentic, or at least recent for a number of reasons.

Why would it be even written yet.

That's a fake obviously.

I don't know how authentic it is, but to answer your question: If the band is rehearsing for a tour, it's nice to know the songs they play and the order....

Sure but shouldn't rehearsing mean that things are still being decided and worked on how the final product will look like. Not that I would know but it would be weird if there was already something set to stone and printed out for someone to leak on the internet.

Also, don't they rehearse a number of songs that probably won't be played but just in case if they feel like it.

Or this could be a massive production with so little room to move around that it was actually decided ages ago.

This is still the Not In This Lifetime tour. So it's safe to assume the core of the set will be what we saw on previous legs.

Yes, we don't know what/if they rehearsed songs that hasn't been performed live on previous legs.

The production is indeed huge, and that's something that needs to be considered when adding songs. But we know from past experiences that the band have added songs to the sets as the tours have gone along....

Not long to find out now anyway.

I would imagine the band must be setting off for Europe anytime now, if they haven't already.

My guess is that the rest of the band is in Europe and Axl is just at home

We will know, soon.

If they add street of dreams and shadow of your love and take off the who cover it will be great.

[DeN]

in GNR case, is the sellist really the problem?

or the fact that they play these tracks the exact same way at every show since 30 years?

[rebelhipi]

Would be cool to hear them have a go at Since I Dont Have You

[slash&axl]

I go in every tour hoping to hear a new song. I’m not complaining and I will be there to cheer them on this Sunday but I always have that hope, the same as many.
It’ll be a great show regardless as was the LA Forum.
If they shave it down to 2 and a half hours that’s cool. I’m up for whatever helps them be great.
