...you learned that tonight's show (12th) was made primarily up of the same songs from the '02 shows?

Personally, I'm really hoping that we get a listen of something brand new or at least one or two of the leaks that we've come across. If not either of those, maybe some different Illusion era songs.

Either way, I'm just really excited that GN'R are back and are now set loose on the streets! Having only seen them once (which ironically was there last show at MSG in '02) tonight's show will be something very special even if it's the exact same set (hell...I missed the first fours songs last time so I'm at least hoping to hear Jungle, Browstone, and Easy). From the sound of Axl on Trunk's show, '02 was a bit forced. These shows and the Euro tour are certainly the beginning of something different, something huge, something that will trek on through for the next few years (hopefully). This, my friends, is the beginning of the era that is Chinese Democracy! I for one will NOT be disapointed in any regard...

...as long as Axl shows tonight, that is  :hihi:

Not really...Im going in with low expectations in regards to the setlist.  Im expecting the same songs.  I reckon he might play one of the leaked tracks.  If he plays any more than that, Ill certainly be surprised.

Nope i'm not a regular poster but still read you guys all the time. I'm as big a GnR fan as you all....first time i saw them was 1992. I'm from Liverpool England so am obviously not going tonight....but am going to Download to see them. Anyway, just wanted to say how jealous i am of you all going tonight and have a great time. Axl is back, hearing him on that radio show the other night was amazing and i cant wait to read your stories about tonight....so get them posted as soon as you get home!!

I know there was a question on what time they are going to go on. I called Hammerstein and they said that the openers will be going on at 8:30 (not the previously discussed 9). Maybe that means GnR won't be on as late as people thought...hope this helps

Post by: Ellroy on May 12, 2006, 11:04:32 AM
I'd be a little disappointed if it is exactly the same, but not really. I got jipped in Philly, so anything at all would be amazing for me. As long as they play well I'll be happy!

You're the second person that has said so, to me (meaning the 8:30 thing).

If that's so, we could see guns as early as 10 PM, rather then the more often guessed 11 PM.  That gives BFMV a 45 min set and 45 min to strike the stage and get GnR set up.  People going to the show, who are purposefully missing the openers, should keep that in mind.

It would be a HUGE disappointment if they went with the same five-year-old setlist. That old setlist was already a disappointment at the Vegas shows in '02! I think they'll do lots of new stuff this time around. Why the hell wouldn't they? Getting the new stuff online just makes people more excited.

Post by: GnR-NOW on May 12, 2006, 11:31:49 AM
If they were to play the setlist from 01-02, I would be disappointed for the future outlook of the band, because if they were to go and fully re-hash all the old material, in my opinion there would be a grimm future for this GNR.  But at the same time, I would still have an awesome time, bc I am a big fan, and would love to hear these songs live.

Post by: The Dog on May 12, 2006, 11:34:43 AM
I don't think we'll hear too many new songs, if any at all.  It so easy to bootleg concerts these days that Axl isn't going to want even more CD songs to be out there.  With 4 leaks already out do you really think he'll play 2-3 new songs on top of that?  I don't.  I think he'll play 2 leaks or so, but the rest will be 02 set list.  which is fine with me....maybe i'm the only one who liked it, but how could you not want to hear: jungle, its so easy, rocket queen, you could be mind, paradise city, nighttrain......

I'm with Nesquick on this one....just seeing/hearing GNR will be enough for me.  I like to know the songs being played at a concert...i remember at MSG when they played CD, the blues and madagascar, the air just deflated out of the place....most people didn't know the songs - it killed the energy.

IF he does play a new song, it better be a kick ass rocker.

I bet the setlist is relativly the same. But maybe he'll play the songs in a different order.

As far as the set-list goes, I'd be pretty surpised if it was the same one from 02 as well... although I can understand why he wouldn't want to play new songs, I think he could play the leaks though - we already have those anyway. *shrug* I don't know. I'll  be happy with anything, I'm not going to complain.  ;D

I'll be at all 4 Hammerstein shows with my wife of 13 days. (She's a huge Scott Weiland/VR fan, so hopefully if Axl does feel the need to rant it won't be regarding Scott Weiland, if for no other reason than to help make my ride home a little nicer.)

I dunno when all the updates will start coming, BUT my guess is, since the show starts 10pm (4am here in the UK), and the Portuguese radio will be updating us with the latest ongoings in the Ballroom, I suggest you are up at 4 am, because that's when the board is gonna get crowded and loaded with info!

She said there was a huge number of people - she didn't know how they were all going to fit into the joint.  And several dressed as Axl... she didn't mention which version, though - 'old', 'nu' or 'new'.

Sorta.

He brought a very souped up T-Mobile device he's using.  Gives him full net access and a slide out keyboard.

But his net connection is being flaky so it's easier to aim stuff than post it..

axlgunner and I laughed anyway. line is beyond ridiculous. gotta be three hundred people behind us at least

Doors opened around 7:45, were supposed to open at 7:30.  FYI, that's not unusual.

An MDA is not a recording device. ?

It's sorta like a trio or a blackberry.

And it's almost 9 PM here....BFMV should hit the stage soon.

FYI, I'm not in NYC, dark is.

And I'm not talking to him directly right now..aim is being flaky.

he's on the mezz, I think (he had floor but I think traded them...not exactly sure...when aim works I'll ask him).

Thanks Pilf and Dark!

Pilferk, do you by chance have Dark's full blog today that he's written? in one post? ?I've tried reading the first 5 pages of the 38 page Dark thread at mygnr and am getting pissed at all the nonsense posting as usual there and there's no way I can search through all the pages without throwing my computer out the window.

If you don't have it that's fine.

Thanks again!

well if the rumor they rehearsed twat irs and better is true. i would assume they would try them out live before europe incase they really fuck them up and need more practice.

I don't sorry.

FYI:

http://www.gunsnroses.us/news/article.php3?id_article=59

Stage Design: Red arcs angling outward on sides of stage. Vertical GNR banners with new chinese font and graphics - MUCH improved from the ?02 look. Cream colored with black or dark brown font. Great t-shirts as well. All graphics are substantially better than 2002

Bumblefoot was rumored to be the guitarist a year or so ago, maybe more.  But he posted that he had auditioned on his site and I think he got in trouble with GNR management.

I am expecting the jokers to post that slash was the new guy before we hear from people that were actually at the show.  I imagine that the people at the show will be partying a bit after the show and not worring about computers.  Have to admit I am excited to see the new lineup.  I passed in 02 but after hearing the leaks I am a believer.   I have not seen Mr. Rose since 1992 so I hope he makes it State side (Pittsburgh), with new songs, of course.  Good Luck Axl.

Is it possible for Dark to send a pick of the stage?


 :peace:

I haven't heard from dark in awhile. ?He was having signal issues at one point.

I'm sure there will be pics.

We just might not get them uploaded til VERY early (eastern time) this am after the show.

I'll be available for a bit to upload and post them, if I get 'em.

So Bas is there. Eddie Trunk is there. Some guy from Pulp Fiction is there. And some guy from the Sopranos is there also. Guess at least the Sopranos premiere party paid off for Axl cuz if a couple of celebs are there these shows might get some mention outside of just the music sheets and mags.

I cannot believe Izzy fucking Stradlin may actually be on the same stage as Axl again.  When was the last time??? Late 91 or early 92???

EDIT:  Nevermind, I just remembered Izzy played a couple shows with GNR in 93 I think.  Maybe when Gilby broke his arm?

To be clear:

OH SNAP....eddie trunk just confirmed on his site that the new lead guitarist is bumblefoot (ron thal)...finally a guitarist that doesn't wear refuse as a hat.


a new lead guitarist that actually looks normal....finally

i'm thinking that the reports that izzy was doing solo's were from people who were mistaking bumblefoot for izzy...

if izzy was playing, it would've been reported  on antimusic


apparently robin finck has ditched the goth look....now he has a beard....sweet....that marilyn manson look was gay

what a night!!!!!!!!!

Otherwise there will be no surprises.

Also, no one commented on (at least i did not see it) on any Axl rants. ?He said nothing? ?Nothing in regards to CD's release date?

Crazy they debunked the Bumblefoot rumor a few years ago and it was true! ?The fact they played Better, TWAT and IRS confirms the suspicion the band (Axl) was behind the leaks, imo.

I bet IRS sounded fucking awesome live! Imagine the whole place singing the new songs.. IRS, BETTER and TWAT!!

And My Michelle with Seb!! These guys had a real treat!

And 3 more nights with much more to come!!!!! I wonder what we will get the next 3 nights..

The how ended about 20 min ago.

Give it some time.

By tomorrow afternoon, I have faith we'll have some audio. ?But it needs to be uploaded, hosted, and probably torrented so we don't bring anyone's web space to a crashing halt. ?All that takes time, and it's running on 2 AM.. The concert goers are going to party and probably crash onto a bed (or just crash)....

Patience, grasshopper.

Eric from Vh1 was at the show and was able to stay at the show...

"they Came on 11 o clock..
he came out and looked great, sounded great..
the energy in the room was amazing the fans were going nuts.

It was the worlds longest intro tape. They had great music mixed with rock and roll and hip hop.

axl ran around the stage quite a bit.

Sabastian did a great version of my michelle. they traded off vocals back and fourth. sabastian and axl worked well together.

It clicked pretty well. i have never seen this version of guns n' roses.

there were 3 guitar players on stage. bumblefoot is the new guy."

there were 3 guitar players on stage. bumblefoot is the new guy."

I'm back.... that was the most amazing show EVER. I cried like a baby, it was beautiful. ?Axl sounded amazing... ?and it's quite possible that he looked even hotter than he did way back when. I mean, I was close enough to see the beads of sweat on his face, and I'm tellin' ya, that is a BEAUTIFUL man. I'm typing up more, but that's my initial comment... Holy fuck.

I've listened to the "new" WTTJ audio clip and compared it to Leeds 2002 footage and if you listen to the end part then you can tell they are EXACTLY the same....

Don't think this has been posted yet:

Quote
Brain's Drums are red with a single kick with the new GNR logo. Richard's guitars consist of one white, gold top and black Les Paul, one yellow double cutaway Junior, one James Trussart Les Paul, one white James Trussart Tele, one Gibson J-200 acousitc (for Patience), one white Fernandez Les Paul, one 335 and one Godin. He's using two Deizel VH4S amps and a vintage Marshall hydrid 100 watt. He's running two Bradshaw RS10 switchers (one for him and one in guitar world) and does not switch himself but has the tech switch every cue, EVERY SONG, EVERY SOLO...some songs in the set have six switch's in the same song. He's using Sennheiser SK500G2 wireless on the guitars, looped into four channels in the rig and Shure In-Ears for the entire band.Tommy Stinson uses a white P-Bass with a tortoise pick guard exclusively. Robin (50-50 chance you may not see him in the band)uses all Les Pauls of all colors. The other "new guy" uses one '59 Les Paul reissue and a funky custom strat with an aluminum fretboard. Dizzy is lives next to Brain (stage right), the other keyboardist lives on Brains left (stage left). Axl downstage middle, Stinson to Axl's left with Robin (or whoever may they may have) outside stage left. Richard?s next to Axl's right and the "new guy" outside stage right. Axle has two Sony 20" teleprompters downstage in front.

So Pitman's still in the band, lol

It doesn't really have anything to do with him. It's just that Jimmy Fallon said 'Buckethead did his job' after the VMA's 2002 (If you remember BH did an amazing solo at the end of Paradise City). I think what Saul is saying is that a guy like Bumblefoot is needed to replicate BH's unique style (At least that's how I took this post).

I'm not too familiar with Bumblefoot, I just hope he can pull off that amazing Bucket solo at the end of TWAT!!!!

KOHD was 2002 style.

good.. thats the best version... the 90's versions with the extended solos, chorus and sing alongs were boring as shit..

just got back from the show too.. .great show.. the sound wasn't that good for the first few tunes.. the set list was pretty much the same as the 02 tour.. opened with jungle and closed with night train.. pc encor... they added better, twat. and irs and scratched.. crazy, think about you, and rocket queen.. kinda suprised about rocket queen...  i'm just going to list things as i think of then.. to try to give everyone and idea of the show..
better sounded exactly like the leak.. they kept the weird robot noise in the middle.. the song rocked live though.. and is my fav of the leaks
stinson was awsome.. by far the best performer on the stage.. .other than axl
twat and maddy were a bit heavier than the versions we have
they didn't play oh my god either.. forgot that one too
knockin of heavens door was more like the illusion version than the 02 version..  also axl killed this one.. his voice was awsome
bumble foot was actually pretty good.. i liked his solo.. he is def talented.. more of a shredder than the blusey guitar i would have prefered.. but over all good..  the only think i didn't like was this stupid guitar that he used for a few songs that was shaped like a foot and painted like a bumble bee... pretty awful
they skipped the very begining of november rain.. also i thought fink and fortis were getting into a fight during this song.. but fink was actually dragging fortis from the back of the stage.. because seconds after a shower of pyro techs came down.. fink was just looking out him...
fink lost the goth look.. long hair and beard.. much better than the last tour.. he also tried to crowd surf but the security pulled him down.. fink also wrote better
baz joined axl for my michele.. prob the highlight of the show for me.. that was awsome
axl looked normal.. no jersey.. just jeans and a pleather looking button down..
there was zero mention of a new album and he didn't really introduce any of the new songs... exept befor irs he said something about.. "your all a bunch of downloading mother fuckers.. i see you singing along"  he said it jest.. he wasn't really pissed..
thats all i can think of right now... also no rhiad or silk worms.. obviously
over all the show was very good.. i think his voice was better at this show than any from the last tour.. ...  i was a little disappointed that they didn't play and songs that ive never heard before... and that they stuck to pretty much the same setlist and order... i'm looking forward to see if they do anything diff at the next shows

Okay? well, I started out at Mustang Harry?s, met some cool people, headed over around 7 - the line was around the block? it was about 3 blocks long and I didn?t actually get into the building until like 8:30. My friend and I then rushed up front as close to the stage as possible, we ended up really close. Bullet opened. They got booed. They played about 45 mins, then GNR went on at 11. There were professional cameras, hopefully we'll get to see this baby. They opened with Jungle, then It?s So Easy and Mr. Brownstone, although during these I have no idea what was going on, my friend and I were fighting for our lives. I literally thought I was going to break some ribs, there was some serious violence up front. Then they went into Better and things started calming down a little? I think a lot of people were like ?what the hell song is this?? You could really tell the true fans because we knew every word to every song, while some people just stood there during the leak songs?. ?Anyway, Axl chatted about how much he loves New York City. He also commented on how some people think they know what?s going on in the band, but they don?t. He said Better was a Robin song, to clarify it to all those shit-talkers who think they know all the inside info, but don?t. On they played? he introduced the band. Bumblefoot did a semi-lengthy solo, he has a foot-shaped guitar. He was good, I mean I know he has giant shoes to fill, but I?ll give respect where it?s due. Dizzy was shirtless and for a while I thought he was naked because his pants were pretty low and you couldn?t see ?em behind the keyboard. Lol? Anyway? Axl joked before he went into IRS, something about ?I see you guys singing along, little motherfuckers, you must?ve downloaded ?em? or something? ?haha? ?Baz came out and sang My Michelle, it was fuckin? awesome. Axl played piano on November Rain? this is where I started crying. It was just surreal, I don?t know? I lost it. Anyway, all the guitarists got in their fair share of solos, and they all sounded great. The solos on PC and NT didn't sound bad from where I was sitting. I mean, ?no, it?s not the original line-up, but they didn?t do all that many ?original? songs, so you really got to hear what the new guys have added to the band on IRS, CD, Maddy, TWAT, Better, etc. And the new guys have great energy, robin stage dived twice
(k... still typing, this is installment one)

bumble foot seemed to have a very similar style to bucket.. and doesn't look like a freak show... i wouldn't be suprised if the solos in the new songs that we thought were bucket are actually bumble foot.. .his solo at the show was pretty impressive... i think he might have won over some fans with it.. also i didn't hear a single slash shout out during his solo..  during the last tour there were a lot of slach chants during buckets solos.. you just couldn't help yelling for slash when this freak was playing with numchucks..

FROM DARK!
.....................................................


Ok, here's my attempt at a review. Keeping in mind that I've been up for almost 24 hours now and I'm uber-wrecked, but what the hell, I'll try.

A. Acoustics. I give this a B+. Mainly because it seemed there were some feedback issues with the mics early on. As the show continued, it got better though.

B. Axl's stage presence (not his voice, I'll get to that in a moment) A+++ - I am not kidding. The guy had so much energy its fucking ridiculous. In addition, he moved around a hell of alot more than he did in 2002 - and sounded loads better doing it, too.

C. The rest of the band's stage presence A+++ Also. These guys can play and they make it look good, too. Hell, even Chris Pitman actually looked like a ball full of energy up there swinging his yellow polaroid keyboard to the beat of the music (yes, I'm serious)

D. Axl's voice. A+++++ - There is no other way to put it. This is not the Axl of 2002. This is the Axl of .. hell... not even the 90's. His voice is stronger, he's got the rasp when he wants it.. he hits the highs without the 'helium' affect. This was especially apparent when he sang "The Blues" - and also, IRS. How the hell he manages those notes for those lengths of time, I have no clue.

E. The Rants / stagespeak.. ummm.... Incomplete? I guess I'm just used to Axl babbling alot more up there. He didn't really have much to say tonight. Called us a bunch of downloading motherfuckers, which I thought was funny. Said NYC is trying to "kill him" (as in because the city lets hm stay out and party all the time), Hand a mini-mini rant (like 4 sentences or so) about people who think they are informed about what goes on in GNR, but it never really went anywhere.

F. The setlist. A-, but for greedy reasons. Obviously I would have loved to hear another track that we haven't yet heard but it was great to hear him do songs like Out Ta Get me, Nighttrain (an AMAZING performance), and Its so Easy done with so much more... I can't describe it.. umm.. perfection than in 2002. Also, Axl seemed really happy which was cool. I rather wish Rocket Queen wasn't left off the setlist but trust me, when you hear that middle 'screaming' part in Better, it will make up for it.. Holy hell it will.

G. Overall experience A+++ All the way. I've now seen Guns live 5 times. This was my first experience with the post UYI lineup. I dont know if it was the closeness (the damn guy was like 5 feet away from me on the stage), the arena size in general,. the energy level, or what - but this was by FAR better than any of the 2002 performances I've seen. I would gladly pay bookoo bucks for a soundboard recording of this show - and I'd immediately play it to anyone who says "Guns is nothing without (insert x name here)" - Because, wow, would this show prove that statement wrong. Bumblefoot did fine.. he goofed the NR solo a bit.. but not horribly so.


A couple other quick review type notes.

A. Can someone please run Bullet for my Valentine's tourbus off the road and put them out of their misery? I don't mean to hurt them but to stop them from being able to get to the Hammerstein. I guesss they were 'ok' but the crowd was pretty much telling them to 'fuck off' the whole time. Probably not the best situation to be in for a band. In addition, I just didn't dig their performance.

B. Watching drunk people is funny. Watching drunk people fly into crowd members.. not so much so. If you're gonna drink, cool - but damn, please don't get so sloshed that you pretty much have no recollection of the show, anyway.

couple more things.. i thought night train was the best performance of the show..  the security was nothing like the vegas shows.. so anyone looking to boot the next few shows don't worry about getting in equipment...  one of my buddies had his cell phone charger in his coat pocket.. and no one at the door even questioned what was in his pocket.. you could also see the glow of digital cameras and cell phones all over the place..

Read Darks review on page 37, it tells about Axls voice.

And Madagascar is reported to be "a bit heavier".

Post by: BKinNYC on May 13, 2006, 02:55:15 AM
I agree with Dark's review, ESPECIALLY that shit band that opened. ?Every song sounded the same. ?The loudest cheer was when they were finally finished.

The best song? I'd have to say Nightrain, or My Michelle with Bach. ?That guy's nuts!! ?

I also LOVED IRS and TWAT. ?TWAT was much heavier live than on the demo, and IRS is so kick-ass. ? I liked Chinese D a lot too - mainly because it was the best version I ever heard them play.

I don't know if it was bad acoustics, but to me it was almost as if they didn't have Axl's level up high enough on a few songs.

couple more things.. i thought night train was the best performance of the show..? the security was nothing like the vegas shows.. so anyone looking to boot the next few shows don't worry about getting in equipment...? one of my buddies had his cell phone charger in his coat pocket.. and no one at the door even questioned what was in his pocket.. you could also see the glow of digital cameras and cell phones all over the place..
i like the sound of that, there will be lots of bootlegs of various quality. when will we get them though...........

Axl's voice seemed much better than 2002 to me... ?and about the Matt comment, he actually said that someone else said it and then there was a kind of weird silence and he was like "I dunno, I thought it was funny" so I'm not sure how mean-spirited it was, but it was a dig none-the-less. And Madagascar seemed about the same to me, maybe heavier... but ?I.R.S. sounded a little different, I'm not sure if that was just where I was sitting, but some parts seemed kind of ... different... to me.

Was Madgascar changed in anyway? and how was Axl's voice? 2002ish or before.

i thought it was bit heavier than the versions i've heard.. also the audio clips in the middle started out the exact same.. but they either got muffled out at the end.. or they decided to cut out the "than God all mighty i"free at last" 
i liked the heavier version better

Songs I remember: Jungle, ISE, Brownstone, Better, Live n Let Die, KNockin, My Michelle (with Sabastian), YCBM, SCOM, IRS, TWAT, Maddy, CHinese Democracy, The Blues, NR, Nightrain, Paradise City

I sat Floor, in the back. Met the person who runs TheNewGuns.com  ???

anyway, Axl was amazing, he was really into it. the energy wasn't quite like MSG, but thats b/c there were more new songs and less people capacity. the music wasn't excellent, it was just good. they sounded great as a band, but the guitar parts I had a problem with.....here's why

THERE's NO REASON AT ALL FOR BUMBLEFUCK to be in this band....he looks like he just came out of a bar band and is like 39 yrs old...he serves NO PURPOSE, as a matter of fact, he kinda sucked...he TRIED being like Bucket.....NO WAY IN HELL!!!!!

actually, he and robin had 2 solos each, and all 4 sucked really bad, but i like robin, he has a cool look......bumblefuck has NO LOOK at all....what a bad move bringing this old 80s throwback into the band....he has NO IMAGE and tried to play but it just wasn't happening....

there were times it felt like all 3 guitars were playing rhythm and NO ONE was playing LEAD!!!!!!!!!! go figure!

the best person in the group: Axl without a doubt, then Robin **** HE STAGE DOVE TWICE DURING PARADISE CITY....after the first time, he grabbed the mic, mumbled something, then jumped back in, ery cool

the best song: without a doubt, BETTER.....it was AWESOME......i think they fucked IRS up.....TWAT had a long jam at the end.....

Just listening to the Talkingmetal podcast, theyre saying:

"Only glitch was pyrotechnics didn't go off on Paradise City after Axl blew his whistle"

Is everyone else listening?

i thought that better and irs sounded the same as the leaks
twat was heavier
i also thought maddy was heavier too... but the other people who posted who were at the show didn't seem to think so
the blues was pretty much the sam.. a bit slower if anything..
cd sounded the same to me..
knockn on heavens door was the faster faster version

the end of TWAT wasn't too tight...nothing like the solo u hear on the demo....that melody that BH plays jus twasn't there....

and it seemed like there were times Bumblefuck was playing, but u couldn't hear him.....he didn't seem smooth, AT ALL....

But TWAT had a new intro....The Blues didn't have the hard guitars come in at the intro....it stayed quiet while axl sang the first verse


knocking was the 02 version, someone posted before it was like the 90s...NO WAY....


ask away...ill be up for awhile...im pumped....AXL WAS AWESOME...so no worries there....ROBIN WAS AWESOME....he looked cool, but the stage diving really got me...that was totally cool and called for, a perfect move by Robin..

tommy and fortus were un-noticeable...

brain was solid, he played some cool shit during nightrain to let axl know the end was ready...



ask anything....like i said, ill be here

i just got home as well, what a great show, axl sounded great!! he was pumped and being his usual self, running around the stage, the setlist i think was awesome, i think this was the order(i just missed getting the setlist, gnrs photographer gave it to the guy next to me):
jungle
easy
mr bstone
better (kicked ass!!)
lald
robin solo/sweet child
kohd
madagascar
ycbm
the blues
out ta get me
nov rain
my michelle (w/ sebastian bach!!)
chinese democracy
twat
patience
irs
nightrain
robin solo/paradise city
again, not totally sure on the order, but the show was unbelievable...i was front row on the right, kept getting shoved against the gate which kinda hurt, but after a while i just started pushing back and didnt give a shit. sebastian bach was awesome on my michelle, right before irs axl mentioned how the fans knew the words to the songs, he said: "i see people singing along to the new songs(better,twat)...bunch of downloadin' motherfuckers!!" lol,robin stage dove twice and ended up right on top of me, i took a shot to the nose during the whole thing, but eh, whatever, its a GNR show, i shook it off...the new guy bumblefoot in my opinion is a very good player, i thought he was good live, his guitar solos were more "classic rock" sounding, not like buckethead. he did look a little out of place, but it was his first show, he'll get the hang of it...well, thats it for now, ill probly write some more tomorrow, nite gunners!!

Damn thanks for the info, i'd been wondering how that TWAT solo would sound live and played by a new guy. Sad to hear this bumblefoot dude couldn't pull off what is one of the best solo's i've heard in a long time  :no:

How about the Maddy solo, that was played by Buckethead originally, is that the same?

a friend of mine that went to the show told me that Axl used a leather jacket, with no tshirt and jeans

it looked more like a button down shirt.. half unbuttoned

Wow, wow, and wow. I am speechless. I was one of the old school folks who wanted Slash and the old guns back together. Richard, Robin and Bumblefoot made me a believer. As soon as Jungle kicked in, it was non stop. Axl sounded terrific. In fact I don't think he sounded better EVER. Not sure who the second kbrd player was. I couldn't hear Axl announce his name. Robin looks normal now and has shed his NIN look- thank God. He looked like such a tool before. Now he is straight up rock n rol and he can play the shit out of his guitar. It was great when he jumped into the crowd and surfed on both sides of the stage. Richard was a non entity. He could have not played and I wouldn't have noticed. Bumblefoot had a lame guitar solo but he could play Slash's solos perfectly.

I am not sure how I feel about the drummer but Axl made a comment when introducing him saying something like, "Where was Brian when we hired Matt".

At one point, Tommy said he was having a fucking great time and Axl hugged him and said, "You don't even know".

The only Chinese Democracy songs played were the leaked tracks. They sounded the same as the leaks including thew sampling. Axl can still move but has lost a step or two. Can't blame him as he is now "middle aged". He looked good though.

My favorite part was when Sebastian Bach came out and sang My Michele with Axl. I never knew how tall Bach was and Skid Row better call him up because he still has it. He actually out fronted axl during that song.

this was an old school rock show with pyro, chicks. Oh the chicks. There were so many whores there and they were hot as hell. IT was distracting but in a good way.

No izzy this night.

BEfore Guns went on, they played a great mix of old school rock (Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot, ACDC) and 90's alternative (Nirvana, Rage, Blur). The entire club was singing along and I think a lot of people lost their voices before Axl even hit the stage.

What can I say, this was an amazing show and well worth the money, time and anticipation. I almost fell bad that I wasn't a believer in the new band. Both my buddy and I agreed Slash and WEiland can hve each other. Axl doesn't need his old band anymore. It's sad but true.

Better sounded awesome...robin played the intro on guitar (i thought the first notes were keyboard)...Better slammed, when the first verse came in (the hardest part this troubled heart) some fire went off....the new songs were kinda featued by the pyro..

PC had the confetti at th end again...

twat's intro.....there was like some keyboard "pad" playing, some sounds, then boom...the verse started.

BUT ALL IN ALL, the new songs to me, sounded better....i didn't really wanna hear YCBM and ISE....i wanted more new shit...but i still stand by Axl putting the leaks out, b/c its just a coincidence that he played the leaked songs?? i asked the dude who runs the new guns.com and he said he thought BH leaked the songs.....who knows....

It's not that simple though man, I would love it if BH came back but he walked out on the band, Axl aint gonna call him! BH would have to call Axl.

better was pretty much the same, i think irs was a little different, dont really remember, twat had a longer jam at the end, it ended differently, i believe it ended with axl singing "i would do anything for you" without the backing vocals...the blues didnt have the drums b4 axl started singing, i might be leaving something out, im pretty tired, ill talk more tomorrow.

robin did the SCOM solo..it sounded JUST LIKE 2002....


MADDY---uugghhh...the bridge had no real solo...fortus tried something, but it wasn't melodic or catchy....i really miss what BH did on Maddy...

as a matter of fact, never thought id say this, i miss BH...alot...

but no worries, they sounded awesome for a first show in 4 yrs!!!!

Glad to hear Robin's SCOM mine solo is like '02 cos he pulled it off amazing back then! Shame about the Maddy solo, that was real nice.
How about Robin's solo in 'The Blues'? The same??

And Bumblefoot in my opinion is exactly the same style as buckethead, just not as amazing as buckethead,

and Robin fink looked So different, he went from looking like Maralyn manson to Jesus, he must not have gotten a hair cut or shave since 2002

Axl spoke about as much as he did in 2002 MSG or any other show in 02....he seemed really happy...he went down to his knees during the outro of nightrain....actually, nightrain was really really good....the outro was awesome...axl was really into it...he left the stage then came back and went down to his knees...

athletic?? hhmm..he was trying to run around, but the stage was about 1/4 the size (if that) of the 91-93 tour....trust me, axl looked good...he had on jeans, a black button down shirt that was opened most of the way down...

he did have his goatee.....its pretty thick, like in recent photos...

he mentioned again his love for nyc, and that he's been here for awhile now (i think this is what he said, it was kinda hard to hear exactly what he was saying)

the blues solo was right on, it was good....the ending little diddy thing worked, no mess ups on those last few note hits

actually...robin was REALLY into it.....Axl n Robin were leaning into each other alot, axl had a special moment with tommy where he was hugging him and talkling into his ear.....

heh, all the Bucket bashers, bet you wish he was still in the band now  :hihi: from what i have seen and heard of Bumble Foot, he don't come close to Bucket.

Where's the bootleg of Better then, its the song i want to hear  :beer:

from what i have read, no new songs that have not been heard before were played. Thats really odd. The new material can't be that bad can it?  ;D

also i thought fink and fortis were getting into a fight during this song.. but fink was actually dragging fortis from the back of the stage.. because seconds after a shower of pyro techs came down.. fink was just looking out him...

Can you elaborate on this? Im a little confused but curious.

Both my buddy and I agreed Slash and WEiland can hve each other. Axl doesn't need his old band anymore. It's sad but true.
Was that necessary? Look, the way I see it, we now have two good bands to go and see...

Thanks man.

Its good to hear that there are visible signs the band has really bonded. That was the tragic undoing of the first band I think. Its funny to think that the new band has been together about as long as the original, right?

{not sure if it goes here}

WHat a day it was! The weather held up and I was out there on the line with a lot of cool people. KV, Eva, Dave,and some others.

also went down to mustangs and met mike,jaz,dark,and mr intensity...all cool people...mike is hilarious and mad cool

Gates opened up late and Bullets blew.

I was right on the rail dead middle.

Im not gonna go thru the setlist but Ill go over some stuff that I remember.

LAdies and Gents, boys and girls, Im really not sure if it can get better than that. I thought MSG was mind blowing, forget it. This was truly a musical orgasm. Seeing Axl and this band within a a few feet from you is really unexplainable. And Ill tell you what...please stash away all the Axl is fat, Axl looks weird garbage away. Axl is in tip top shape. He was wearing a black leather shirt and jeans. Looked really badass. No wardrobe changes by the way.

The rest of the band looked really cool and Finck has a lil bit of a diff look and wore reg clothes no alien suits.

Bfoot was very good but hes not Bucket. Image and music wise. Hes excellent though. Give him a few shows to gel with the band cause he looked a lil out of place tonight. But some of his solos were killer.

They played all the 02 songs minus I think About You and added the leaks except CITR.

TWATs intro sounds even better live and overall it kills the leak. This was without a doubt the best song of the leaks livewise.

Better was excellent oo

and IRS was ok but I think the leak/finished version will sound better than a live version

Madagascar sounded amazing live. One of the highlights of the night for me.

What was extremely cool about this show compared to MSG was that everyone was singing the new songs including the leaks....and Axl later commented something to the effect of " you fuckers are into dloading" or something to that effect and then they played irs if im not mistaken

I couldnt make out what Axl was saying when he talked so we'll have to wait and see

Another highlight was when he brought out BAch to play My Michelle. That was amazing.

All I can say is RObin Finck is the friggen man. Not only did he play his balls off but he was all over the place on the stage and in the crowd. He was so fukin cool. You haters really need to see him live and upclose before you slag on him. He was the 2nd best performer out there tonight.

idk if any1 caught this but Robin also saved Tommy from going underneath the NR fireworks just in time. Tommy was crakin up after that.

another thing to note is this bands chemistry. THIS IS A BAND. You could tell they were happy to be there and playing with each other. Hugging and clapping for each other, jamming, etc. Really cool to see. Stuff you dont catch as much on the boots.

Thats itfor now. You peoplewill have a blast. If you want an amazing experience you must be right up there. To see Axl is truly amazing. I dont know how to describe it. I will be soar tomorrow but its worth it...trust me....

gnfr baby

Awesome stuff, thanks. Not that I was there, but from what Ive seen and heard of them, I honestly think the new band is so good there is no need for a classic reunion. Bring on the future of rock and roll!

Post by: shaun on May 13, 2006, 03:40:25 AM
just got back from the show too.. .great show.. the sound wasn't that good for the first few tunes.. the set list was pretty much the same as the 02 tour.. opened with jungle and closed with night train.. pc encor... they added better, twat. and irs and scratched.. crazy, think about you, and rocket queen.. kinda suprised about rocket queen...  i'm just going to list things as i think of then.. to try to give everyone and idea of the show..
better sounded exactly like the leak.. they kept the weird robot noise in the middle.. the song rocked live though.. and is my fav of the leaks
stinson was awsome.. by far the best performer on the stage.. .other than axl
twat and maddy were a bit heavier than the versions we have
they didn't play oh my god either.. forgot that one too
knockin of heavens door was more like the illusion version than the 02 version..  also axl killed this one.. his voice was awsome
bumble foot was actually pretty good.. i liked his solo.. he is def talented.. more of a shredder than the blusey guitar i would have prefered.. but over all good..  the only think i didn't like was this stupid guitar that he used for a few songs that was shaped like a foot and painted like a bumble bee... pretty awful
they skipped the very begining of november rain.. also i thought fink and fortis were getting into a fight during this song.. but fink was actually dragging fortis from the back of the stage.. because seconds after a shower of pyro techs came down.. fink was just looking out him...
fink lost the goth look.. long hair and beard.. much better than the last tour.. he also tried to crowd surf but the security pulled him down.. fink also wrote better
baz joined axl for my michele.. prob the highlight of the show for me.. that was awsome
axl looked normal.. no jersey.. just jeans and a pleather looking button down..
there was zero mention of a new album and he didn't really introduce any of the new songs... exept befor irs he said something about.. "your all a bunch of downloading mother fuckers.. i see you singing along"  he said it jest.. he wasn't really pissed..
thats all i can think of right now... also no rhiad or silk worms.. obviously
over all the show was very good.. i think his voice was better at this show than any from the last tour.. ...  i was a little disappointed that they didn't play and songs that ive never heard before... and that they stuck to pretty much the same setlist and order...

Rocket Queen, thats cool. I don't think the new GnR have performed that song in the past. It is one of GnR's best songs. Needs Slash on it though (me and my big mouth again). So was Izzy there?

im not lying about bumblefuck...he sucked, he looked like a roadie from the 80s, seriously...why would i bash him??? i could care less, i want slash back, then BH...im just telling u what i saw n heard...

he actually flubbed alot...he missed notes, he tried doing runs up n down the fretboard like BH, but he sucked....it souned like he was playing with a case of the jitters....im sure the dude rocks, he just didnt play great tonight, and looked like my uncle anthony...im not sure why he's there, regardless of his playing......it looked like Axl, Robin, and a bunch of backing players....actually, dizzy looked kinda cool i guess...pittman, i couldn't tell...well, i lie....i didn't look at him more then maybe twice...



I know, i said to my friend outside when we met back up...i said, robin's almost been with axl as long as slash.....


i was outside of hammerstein at 1:20, so the show ended alittle after 1AM

I love Slash as much as everyone, but GN'R is moving on and you have to accept it.

I think Bumblefoot definately has the talent to be there. Maybe just a little bit nervous the first gig or something.

And I just can't see Slash playing like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55PdvkxbGjE


And being 39 (I don't know how old he is, but probably mid-late thirties) may seem like old for a teen but one day you just notice that you're 39 and it doesn't feel that old anymore. ;D
 
Besides, Axl is 44 and Slash is soon 41 and Bucket...who knows ::), probably around same as Bumblefoot.

Show fn ruled.  Seen some fights, bloody noses and whatnot in the crowd.  At one point Axl made fun of the crowd for singing all of the words to the new songs(Leaks).  Called us "downloading Motherfuckers".  Like the man already said, Axl looked great.  He looked much younger than some of the recent pics we've seen.  I'd say Richard Fortus stole the show.  Finck rocked also.  I dont know, i guess im just a rambli n drunk at this point.  Goodnight honkys.

i just got home from the show (philly), and i agree with everything W 23 is saying.

i am more impressed with robin than i was before. but bumblefoot was a MAJOR disappointment. i really miss b-head.

still, the show was awesome. i saw 3 shows in 2002, and axl sounded better than any of those. small venue, great sound. awesome set list. and baz coming out for my michele was incredible.

can't wait for the rest of the shows.

GUNS N' ROSES played their first show in more than three years Friday night/Saturday morning (May 12-13) at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York. The two-hour, 15-minute set kicked off at roughly 11:00 p.m. with the opening 1-2-3 punch of "Welcome to the Jungle", "It's So Easy" and "Mr. Brownstone", and featured a guest appearance by former SKID ROW frontman Sebastian Bach, who traded off lead vocals with Axl Rose in "My Michelle". The much-rumored appearance by ex-GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Izzy Stradlin never materialized, although the band did debut a replacement for guitarist Buckethead in the shape of Ron Thal of the New York City-based alternative-rap-metal project BUMBLEFOOT.

GUNS N' ROSES setlist ? Hammerstein Ballroom, New York City - May 12, 2006:

01. Welcome to the Jungle
02. It's So Easy
03. Mr. Brownstone
04. Better
05. Sweet Child O' Mine
06. Knockin' On Heaven's Door
07. Madagascar
(Band Introductions)
08. You Could Be Mine
09. Dizzy Solo
10. The Blues
11. Out Ta Get Me
12. Bumblefoot Solo
13. November Rain
14. My Michelle (with Sebastian Bach)
15. Chinese Democracy
16. T.W.A.T. (There was a Time)
17. Patience
18. I.R.S.
19. Nightrain
20. Robin Finck Solo
21. Paradise City

GUNS N' ROSES have scheduled a total of four New York City shows, with the band's next appearance slated for Sunday, May 14. These are the only U.S. appearances scheduled so far for the group, which counts singer W. Axl Rose as its sole original member. BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE is the opening act for all NYC dates.

no, but what im saying is there should be a purpose for a THIRD GUITARIST

he blended into the background....and it wasn't his sound that was off.....he was off.....i know sound, played in bands a couple of yrs ago, have done close to 200 live shows....i know what i heard and saw....he was just off.....he sounded like he had the jitters, whereas robin looked much more comfortable and confident....robins playing seemed slightly improved, but the best thing was no major flubs (IF ANY!?!?!?!) by robin!!

** come to think of it, on Bumblefuck's TWO solos....he motioned to the band to come back on-stage, like saying he was done and had nothing left to play......all he played was some runs thru scales, finger-tapping (was a messy disaster) and some typical bends etc. etc. nothing major, lots of flubs, and he motioned (im 10000% sure on this) he motioned twice for the band to come back, he actually looked alittle flustered and annoyed, as if he just met these guys that he's now in a band with!

Anyway, those are great pics... must've just been a few feet to my right because that looks about like the view I had.

I got some question... Who did what on each track? Who played witch solo? Did Axl do anything other than singing and playing piano?

What was Knocking on heavens door like? I read that they played the old fast version on this song, is this true? Did they do the same thing as they use to do back in the use your illusion days were Axl sings the chorus then the crowd sing it and so on?

Oh, he certainly did.  I can't believe how good he sounded -- he actually had power to his voice, and none of the helium sounding shit to hit the high notes.

Oh yeah, one more thing -- the rasp is back.

Robin Finck saved the whole night, NYC shows and maybe even the European Tour when he saved Richard Fortus from getting severely burned!(I can't remember the song but it was when those things first came out--->these things)...Seems like  Fortus got distracted for a split second and started walking from right to left in front of Brian's drums when Finck quickly grabbed him from behind and pulled him back to where he came from and into the front of the stage. 5 seconds later this huge set of fire/sparkles came raining now just where RF would've been walking. At the moment Fick just laughed but you could see a sort of "phew!" expression. I don't think many people noticed this and if they did they just saw   it as nothing important. Well once again, thank you Robin Finck. hahaha I also touched him when he dove into the crowd :hihi:

Don't get me wrong really not moaning. I know it's just awsome they are back playing,  looking and hopefully sounding awsome.

But I Would have thought He could have picked a less predictable - more suprising Set-list.  More from Illusions, Spaghetti ect  To make a big statement like this band can play any GNR song. Would have been cool.

  I can understand cos of the internet why they didn't play any more from CD. but would we have even got those new ones if they hadn't been leaked?

This is not a dis just hope that they mix things up a bit. Not retread 2002.

AXL - 9 seriously fucking good. He went for it on every note, with great results. The crowd was in love with him, he looked great, he ran around, what more can you ask for. You could give him a perfect score, but things were sloppy at times.

Bummble foot- 6 He came across to me at times as being sloppy. He had moments when he was great. For instance, the twat solo was spot on, I kid you not. But then the IRS and Better solos were majorly flawed. I believe he had some jitters, and will be better in upcoming shows.

Finck- 8 He is improved from 02 tour. Still a little sloppy, had some good moments. BUT, he jumoed into the crowd and connected with the people, which goes a long way in my book. He had a good night.

fortus- 8 He did more soloing this time, and was clean and played well.

the rest of the band- 9 No one else really stuck out (which is good cause that means they werent fucking up), Dizzy was good on piano in the blues as always. Tommy was energetic, Brain did his thing, pittman was non existant, but threw in many good opening sound effects to a bunch of songs.

overall 8.5 they were great, outside of some issues with the guitarists, and the little things that happen live. BUT THIS WAS THE BEST SHOW IVE EVER SAW!!!!!!

I do hear you on that. I grew up with the UYI albums as much as I did AFD. Would be nice to hear a couple of songs from them.

Hard to complain about whats there though, especially the leaks. Some unheard stuff would have been really special, but I dont mind waiting for future concerts or CD.

I would be amazed if the new GnR attempted to play Estranged, Slash is the only man for the job  :beer:
As for Civil War, i would be happy if they never played it again, i really don't like the song. I don't like Knocking on Heavens Door either. All their other tracks are great  ;D

It's a shame the new GnR didn't play songs they havn't played before. Better being the exception, although most of us got the leaks an age ago.

I wouldnt honestly be ecstatic if we heard a reworked version of Oh My God. Ive come to like the song a bit more as Ive gotten more used to GnR's new musical direction. The song doesnt seem as bad as it once did.

It's 5:30 right now, and me and my gang just got back to Delaware.  A big thanks to Barbie567 for the great job with the post-show party, and to Mr. Intensity and the folks responsible for the pre-show party at Mustang Harry's.

Now, for ratings. (all ratings are subjective of course)   :beer:

Axl:  9/10...this would have been a 9.5/10 had the crew gotten the guitars volume down for the first couple songs.  I was in mezz2 and I couldn't quite make out words too well for the first couple songs because the music was so loud.  By the time I heard The Blues and Out ta Get Me, things were perfect.  Oh, and goddamn, the ending vocals to There Was a Time  :drool:  :drool:  :drool: amazing!  He sounds 1000 times better than on the '02 tour.  He looks 1000 times better than on the '02 tour.  Ladies and germs, amazing stuff...I just hope he can keep it up for a whole tour. 

Fortus:  9.5/10, such energy on stage, great solos, made it look effortless.

Finck:  2 stage-dives that I counted with body-surfing in the crowd!  That was my Finck highlight!   :beer:  Awesome, just great.  Looks happy to be performing again.  Even if he does look like Forrest Gump post-run, it's better than '02, for damn sure!   :peace:  9/10

Bumblefoot:  gimme time to absorb this.  obviously the solos showcased his talent...the guy can play, his look?  He needs Extreme Makeover.  That hair is straight out of Spinal Tap.   :hihi:  Dammit, just be Ron, lose the schticky bumblebee foot guitar.  Just my 2 cents.  7/10

Brain:  Axl had a great line to the effect of, "Sebastian heard Matt play and asked, where the fuck was this guy when you hired Matt?"  Great shit.  Brain: 9/10 (nobody's a 10...okay, except for Jenna-side here at HTGTH!   

Stinson:  9/10, no complaints here...excellent chemistry with Axl.

Dizzy:  9/10 nice work on the keyboards Dizzy.

Pittman:  Did he flip us off on introduction?  3/10.  The beer he sold me at the concession stand was warm.   :hihi:  Just kidding.

Hope that was informative.   :peace:  Just a great fuckin' show.

I'm a little disapointed with the setlist, but only because I'm sat at home craving new songs to download and listen to.

If I was at the gig I would equally disapointed if I didnt get to hear my favourite gnr classics blasted out.

The vast majority of folk in the audience will not have heard any of the new songs and will have been delighted with the set list.

Why is it the 3 leaked songs just happend to be the only 3 new songs the new GnR played live lastnight?  :hihi:

the leaks must have been deliberately leaked. And seeing as Better played live sounds just like the leaked track, then the leaked track must be pretty close to the finished  ;D

And Madagascar, CD and the Blues, remember. They're new songs too, though it might not seem like it now. Together, they make up half the album, so I personally don't think we'll get any more till after it's released.

Thats my point. Madagascar, CD and the Blues have all been played in the past. The 3 leaked songs have never been played live before lastnights show.

What a joke! Hilarious - the band are gone for 10 year and return and play virtually nothing from the new album apart from a load of sub standard stuff everyone hoped was just b-sides - well done Axl, any time u want to give us some NEW music ::)
Speak for yourself will ya? IMO the new songs sound great.. They are different from the old stuff and that's possibly why they sound so great.

Don't get me wrong really not moaning. I know it's just awsome they are back playing,? looking and hopefully sounding awsome.

But I Would have thought He could have picked a less predictable - more suprising Set-list.? More from Illusions, Spaghetti ect? To make a big statement like this band can play any GNR song. Would have been cool.

? I can understand cos of the internet why they didn't play any more from CD. but would we have even got those new ones if they hadn't been leaked?

This is not a dis just hope that they mix things up a bit. Not retread 2002.

Here is the thing you dont get, this b and is not gonna learn UYI songs, they want to play their songs and they will play hits. When CD drops they are gonna play more new songs than old, and when and if the 2nd album drops, they will play barely any old songs save the hits.

Why is it the 3 leaked songs just happend to be the only 3 new songs the new GnR played live lastnight?  :hihi:

the leaks must have been deliberately leaked. And seeing as Better played live sounds just like the leaked track, then the leaked track must be pretty close to the finished  ;D

I think you've got this backwards.  Axl's always said he won't play any new material because it ends up on the Internet.  Because those track are already ON the Internet, it didn't matter.  It was probably a better bet to play them then not, because he could offer up better versions than the demos.

nobody's a 10...okay, except for Jenna-side here at HTGTH!


:rofl: shuddup

And as far as Robin writing Better, Axl didn't actually say he wrote it necessarily. He said "that was a Robin song"  to clarify to all the people that were speculating about it. I think that could mean that the solo on the leak was Robins and not Bucket's as everyone had thought. Or hell, maybe he did write it...  all I'm sayin' is Axl didn't specify what he meant by that...

Hello,

I've been up for over 24hours at this point so i'm not sure how this is going to come out - but here it goes.....

Venue: ?Unfreakin real, I never thought that I would see GNR in such a small club sized venue. ?IF you are short your best bet is to get Mezz seats. ?The line to get in wrapped around three buildings roughly about 3 blocks <whew> never thought I'd get there. ?PS: Don't drink beer while waiting in that line - the cops will write you a ticket ( I have 1st hand knowlede of that :-)

Opening Band: ?Sucked - not my cup of tea

Guns N Roses: ?Went on at 11pm sharp, and ended around 1;15.

Set List: (not going to attempt it right now)

Here are my general thoughts:

Axl sounds better than ever. ?I saw him in '02 and he is 10x better - he has complete control over his voice and is allot closer to the late 80's ealry 90's. ?Matter of fact, I couldn't pick up one note that he didn't hit. ?I felt like I was listening to Live Era - HE FUCKIN ROCKED. ?I was amazed by his performance on stage - the guy knows how to capture an audience. ?He took the Hammersein by storm. The band looks and sounds great - I almost get more of a band feel from them than I did with the original group. ?The new guitarist was pretty much a non-entity ( I'll be honest, I don't even know what he looks like. ?He was not a huge factor. ?All of the other band members ROCKED. The band played the new and old songs with power.



My highlights:



Better, T.W.A.T, Night train (this really stuck out to me, best version i've ever heard), My Michele w/ Baz (fuckin great), fuck it - every song was a highlight. ?The way they played them mad me feel as if I had heard them for the 1st time. ?Power, energetic etc. . . ?Pyro and stage set up was unfreakin real as well. ?



My Lowlights:



I love the set list, but they need to mix it up so that all of the slower songs are in the back half of the show. ?I would not change the songs though, just the order - and i'm only suggesting moving one or two here or there. ?Another lowlowlight would be the mosh pits ?- I know it's part of the whole 'rock n roll' thing, but there were some drunk guys plowing over 4ft tall women - never got the whole mosh pit thing.



I'm looking forward to the 17th - Enjoy the shows inbetween,



-illusionone

Edit:  I should add that if this is a sign of things to come, I can really see GNR on top of the world again - I had my doubts in 2002 but still faithfully stood by.  The 2006 band rocks fuckin hard  :peace:

Questions:

-Rants? What did Axl say between songs? Did he dog Weiland?
-Do the live versions of "Better," "IRS," and TWAT sound much differerent from the demos?

Rants: Nothing really - the only thing to note was a comment by axl quoting Baz saying something in regards to if you (axl) knew about Brain back in the day, you (axl) would never have hired Sorum. 

Better:  Unfuckin real - It sounded like the demo but even more powerful.  I wasn't sure Axl could carry the middle screaming part live, but  he nailed it 100%

TWAT: Again - Unfreakin real - just like the demo - the band nailed it

IRS:  It was like the demo, but Axl had a tough time sining this one, he mouthed the words in certain part (mainly to catch his breath.  That being said, Axl did not seem winded at all other than this song.  IRS was still played really well and came across as such.

Jesus - He looked so diff.? that most people thought he was the new guitarist.? The band seems to have gotten a new respectable look rather than the 2002 ifreak show look (not that there is anything wrong with self expression - I don't mean to use freak as a neg. word - more as a description)

Last night was some night. I was pushed up against the baracade right in front, like 4 feet away from the stage. I got to play bumblefoot's guitar at the end of paradise city, when he shoved his guitar into the crowd. That was awesome.

As for the band and the show, dissapointed by the setlist a bit, especially cuz there was no Rocket Queen. And I also thought the band was a bit tightly wound. You could tell how hard they rehersed and they didn't seem to just wanna break free and go nuts until the end of the show. Those are my only complaints though. Otherwise, great show, Axl sounded and looked phenominal. See everyone again on May 14th for the second show

OK, I sat in the Mezzanine section and I think the sound sucked up there, but is it me or did Axl have trouble with his voice? Were the Vocals on low??

And WTF happened during Patience? I think Axl may have misplaced the lyrics

And I hate to say this, but is Axl pulling a Ashlee Simpson with the lyp syncing? I could have sworn there were times it just didnt seem Axls voice matched up to his mouth, ?and who does the whistling on Patience? someone whistled on Patience and it wasnt Axl because he kind of looked around like WTF was going on, in fact the whole band was looking around I thought they were gonna stop the song and run off stage like Ashlee SImpson on SNL a few years back..

Is this shit me? True I have slept like 6 hours in the last 62 hours, but still I notice these things

A truly unbelievable show.

Axl looked like a million bucks.  The look really worked, especially in contrast to the 2002 hometown jersey routine.  He did a typically great job with everything, although it seemed to me as if his vocals were way low on some of the songs.

Robin Finck won me over.  I liked him fine enough before, but last night he stepped up as the GNR guitarist.  The Jesus look is very cool (I thought he was the new guitarist at first when the lights went up) and he displayed great presence, diving into the crowd twice. 

The rest of the band did a great job as well, showing a huge amount of chemistry.  There was a lot of hugging and interacting on-stage among all of them.

Sebastian Bach was about 8 feet away from where I was and upon seeing him I thought it would be great if he jumped up on stage for a song.  He didnt disappoint and it was one of the highlights of the night.  He came back for the rest ofthe show and he was genuinely into every second of it.

I was pleasently surprised to hear the new songs.

"Nightrain" and "Paradise City" was amazing.

The biggest disappointment was the new guitarist.  Bumblefoot seems like a cool guy and a proficient guitar player, but I was majorly unimpressed with his overall presence.  He just didnt fit.  And despite my past criticisms, Ive come to really appreciate Bucketheads persona and playing and for the first time, I missed him being in GNR.  I couldnt help but think that his presence would have taken things to an even higher level.

Thats about it though.  The show was phenomenal, everybody did a great job and Axl was better than hes been since coming back.

A few other quick notes:

Slightly disappointed with "The Blues" only because they seemed to have cut the intro guitars that worked so well before. 

Also slightly disappointed by the lack of ranting.  He didnt have a whole lot to say last night.

"Chinese Democracy" was significantly rearranged.  The intro was different, the second verse was the first and Axl seemed to have some high-pitched effect on his voice during it.

On Brain: "My good friend Baz said to me 'where was this guy when you hired Matt?'"

Hated the opening band.  I cant stress that enough.  Just awful.

Of the guitar players, Fortus probably played the best and Finck had the best presence.  As someone said earlier, Bumblefoot was essentially a non-entity.

Some very cool pyrotechnics, including a curtain of fireworks toward the end.  And of course, the "Paradise City" confetti.

I still think if Axl put Richard on lead, he would have the best guitar combinaison for this new band.
I still think Richard's potencial is under-exploited. Too bad he doesn't take the lead with Robin.
Don't get me wrong, I like Ron Thal, but come on, when you have Richard and Robin, do you really need another lead guitar player?

What an amazing, amazing show that was.

We went to Mustang Harry's for a few hours mid-day - what an interesting group that was. Definitely a good place to go to get in the mood, although you really couldn't hear the GNR playing - it was down too low.

Decided to head over to the line about 7:30 when doors opened (had floor tickets). Much to our surprise, at 7:30 the doors had yet to open and the line was about 3 1/2 blocks long. Seemed like everyone who had a ticket was in line at 7:30. Doors finally opened and we found a spot about 10-12 people back from the stage on the right by 8:45.

Bullet is terrible terrible terrible. Ugh. After an hour of "the greatest hits of rock history" blasting over the PA, GNR took the stage....

Rather than doing a play-by-play (others have done that) - I thought I'd include my observations from the show.

1) I was BLOWN AWAY by how good Axl looked and sounded. He looked very cool - and actually made it through the whole show with NO costume changes. Just straight rock. His voice was in top shape to say the least. For those of you going later this week or seeing him in Europe - you're not going to believe it. He's also greatly improved his stage presence and energy over the 2002 tours. Can't say enough.

2) It seemed like after the rabid reaction during WTTJ and ISE, the crowd stood stunned in disbelief that a) it was actually Axl and  he looked and sounded so amazing. I thought maybe some of the people around us were losing interest in the show because they were just standing there, but in between songs I overheard about 5 people say "This is f'ing unreal".

3) The duet with Bach was off the charts amazing. God, music today is so void of powerful great front men and seeing two of them duet together was something to behold.

4) The new guitarist was so-so. His solo was pretty pointless in my opinion.

5) TWAT, IRS and Better all translated well - in fact, I'd say TWAT was the highlight of the new songs.

6) People are talking about it being rough - I didn't feel that way at all. We were off to the side a little bit, but other than a little pushing here and there I thought it was pretty tame. VR at the 9:30 club in DC a few years ago was FAAAAARRRR more insane.

7) Why do people get so freaking drunk at these things? Maybe I'm just an old fart (33 yrs old) but there were several people around us puking and spending most of the show with their eyes closed. Genius.


Can't wait to hear about the rest of the shows. I'll be happy to post more if people have more questions about the show. The story of the night though was the amazing return to form of Axl Rose. WOW.

Let me start off by saying the meet up was amazing, mr I did a great job getting this shin dig together.. I loved meeting everyone..

hanna hat and young gunner were great, draguns, estranged 495893 (one of those type names really vcool) Porter house killing vector, birk, jenna side & dtj both gorgeous :-* Jazjme etc etc etc , all great people we all had ?a blast...

I was at mustangs from 12 noon until 8-9pm, I drank more hennys then life... Amazingly enough I lasted the whole night..

I made my way over around 9ish got online, couldn't beleive how many people there were, and how many rock sluts..

Got inside then saw sebation bach and his super hot wife.. Walked right by me so I said hey and gave him a smack on the back.. Somebody screamed out hey I remember you :hihi:

After that I grabbed a plastic cup of heiny then skipped the merchandise it was really pricey (maybe next time)

Bullets played and sucked, it was like a ton of noise.. Guitar player was good, but one the drums kicked in you couldn't understand anything, felt like the drums were opeircing your heart...

They left and the fun began

GIRL IN THE WHITE MINI WITH NO PANTIES IN THE MEZZ(vip balcony) :drool: She was watched for half hour or better (any pics people) I was fixated on her doing her dancing with no panties :smoking: :love:

We listened to nirvana metallica greenday kiss twisted sister, everyone was singing along, great time...

Then the lights dimmed wttj riff and axl was out.. he was wearing a leather jacket, jeans and his braides were tide back...

I instant;ly saw the new guitar player and was like who's the homeless dude... I had never seen a pic of mr bumble foot...

Axl was a man possesed, the band was tight, BBft was awesome... We heard better (awesome) irs and twat... I wish we had heard one song we never did, axl wasn't that vocal info wise.... he was awesome though best in years..

had a great time, walked over to snitch but it was the early am and I was drunk and tired so I walked tot he train and went home

Awesome time...

I was hanging out with Cane the VJ who use to do the rock show on vh1.. Cool guy we shared some views about the band,,..

I did some interview bombed for talking metal.com.. I was just really giving my honest opinions.. DArknemus was really cool to taking so many pics///

The biggest disappointment was the new guitarist. ?Bumblefoot seems like a cool guy and a proficient guitar player, but I was majorly unimpressed with his overall presence. ?He just didnt fit.

booker that's how I felt, he looked like the third player for zz top, he looked like he had his pjs on.. he looked like happy gilmoure's caddy.. The guy can play, his solo outside of the songs wasn't that good.. he did play the material well, but he looked odd onstage..

What is is the with gunners and their over-fixation on looks?

Let's give Ron a chance to get used to the new situation. It was his first time on stage with a band consisting of people who have been working with each other for quite some time now. Ron is one of the greatest virtuosos out there at the moment...

I got on the line outside Hammerstein around 5pm and got second row aisle seats in the Mezz 1 section. ?Great view. ?Opening band is not my thing so I couldn't wait for that to end. ?The DJ played an excellent mix of songs before Guns took the stage, got everyone really pumped. ?That girl in the white miny skirt in the balcony was so fine. ?I couldn't stop staring at her all night. ?As a matter of fact, there was quite a few people there in the VIP that didn't really seem to be that into GN'R, but were probably invited by Axl in the clubs he's been frequenting.

Onto the show. ?It was one for the history books. ?Axl looked great and more importantly sounded the best he has since UYI. ?The band look great too and seemed to all gel really well together. ?Standout was definitely Finck. ?Bumblefoot, I had no idea who it was until Axl introduced the band a few songs into the show. ?He was good. ?Kind of flew below the radar, but this was his first show, I'm sure he was nervous. ?I'd like to see the fans give him more applause after his solo. ?The band sounded tight for the majority of the show. ?Some songs it was hard to hear Axl, so I think they need to turn down the guitars in some parts.

The setlist was very good. ?The guy who posts under the name "Izzy" said he was dissappointed in the tracks they played off CD. ?WTF? ?They played 6 songs including 3 songs they never played before. ?If you don't like the new songs than too bad for you. ?I love them. ?I thought that Better and IRS sounded a bit messy. ?I'm sure the band will improve as time goes on. ?These are warm shows. ?But TWAT was amazing and it got an incredible audience reaction. ?Definitely a highlight. ?Maddy, the Blues and Chinese Democracy all sounded great too. ?I thought they played a great selection of songs off Appetite, however when Sebastian came out (which was a nice surprise) he said "you're crazy". ?I was expecting to hear that song, but they played My Michelle instead. ?I'd like to see them mix in Your Crazy and Rocket Queen some night. ?I was a little dissappointed in the selections from UYI. ?YCBM and Nov Rain were great, but do we need to hear LALD and KOHD? ?Good songs, but I'd rather them played some originally penned tunes. ?I would love to hear Perfect Crime, Dead Horse, Civil War, Yesterdays, Breakdown and especially Don't Cry more than the two cover songs they did. ?But maybe they change up the setlist a bit over time.

Overall great show. ?I'll be seeing them again on the 15th. Can't fuckin wait!

Edit:

By the way, I forgot, but one of my favorite moments was when Tommy said that he was having a great fucking time and Axl made him repeat it, then gave him a big hug and told him how much that meant!

This guy is so not balls to the wall Rock n' Roll. Why does Axl feel the need to hire these schticky guitar players??

Why don?t we give Thal a break? Imagine being in this band, it?s your first show and let?s face it, not the easiest audience. Big shoes to fill. I heard some of his solo stuff and I thought he was really good. Let?s refrain judgement till he had a couple of gigs and see how he does then. I have confidence in this guy, I think he is a very welcome addition.  : ok:

Give the guy a chance, man. I don't know how long he's been with them, but I doubt it's been very long. I wasn't there last night, so I really don't know if he was any good or not, but give him a couple of shows at least before you write him off. Some people get nervous and need a few tries with live bullets before they can truly be themselves and confident.

I have been up for over 29 hours - I still hear rining in my ears and i'm still fired up.

He knows everyone hated the jersey look, so he went back to what people like.  That is what I think.  And in 2002, everyreview said he sounded better then ever.  Being there makes one think that, cause it is so fucking loud and you are into it.  However, the true test is after several shows how will he sound......  I am worried, these are demanding songs and he is getting old. 

Way to go anyways for what sounds like was a great show.  Good luck to the band and the newest member, Bumblefoot.

Dude - not supposedly 3 blocks - it was 3 blocks lol! ?I got pulled out of line by a cop because I had a beer in my hand. ?I got slapped with a $25.00 open container charge.

It would be great if there were three threads - one for posting pics (without people responding), one for reviews (without people reposnding) and one for people to discuss the other two threads.  It's tough to find reviews and pics amungst all the chatter in between.  The threads are getting like 100 pages lol!

And a 4th one with audio & video links...  ;)

I'm going to wait till I either hear a soundboard bootleg myself of them or see them myself in concert, then I'll give my opinion of Bumblefoot.

All I say is now people will realise what Buckethead brought to the band.
i was thinking that all night.... bucket was missed a lot.  bumblefoot needs a lot of work.

I dunno...I'm even willing to give Robin a second chance.....but I'll give him a chance on a good boot....who started Chinese Democracy? sounded like they fucked it up....and the blues solo hit a major :puke: note at one point....but it's a warm-up....I'll wait and see for monday and wednesday and RIR....every show they play they'll get stronger : ok:

Post by: crazyfool on May 13, 2006, 02:17:07 PM
I'm just finally collecting all my thoughts from last night. ?overwhelmed would be a good way to describe my mental state since the house lights went down at 11pm last night. ?I've been a lifelong die hard fan but never saw the band live. ?I was at the Philly show in 2002 though...waiting. ?I've seen VR twice, once at the tiny 9:30 club in DC and was fortunate enough to meet Duff and Matt Sorum breifly after the show. ?I saw Slash's Snakepit play a bar in Minneapolis in 2000 that had 25 people in it. ?But I had never seen Axl live until last night. ?And when the wait finally ended, and the first slow few notes of WTTJ started, it was honestly the type of rush you get as a kid. And When Axl finally came out I caught a glimpse of him despite the mad rush of people towards the stage while jumping up and down...he looked....great. ?No other way to describe it. ?what struck me right away was that he looked more normal (comfortable?) than any of the pics or videos that i've seen of the 2002 tour. ?No jersey. ?he was wearing jeans! ?braids (they looked shorter) back in a pony tail, wearing shades and dancing, moving, running around up there looking like he hadn't just disappeared for most of the last 13 years. ?And maybe that sets the tone for the rest of the band....bc with buckethead out of the band and Robin Finck looking like Soundgardeny Chris Robinson, it's like...whoah, they look like real people! ?cool! ?(sorry...i don't mean to offend BH or his fans, but i would hope that a real GUNS n ROSES fan would agree that completely regardless of his playing ability....c'mon...that guy doesn't belong in GNR. ?the whole 2002 lineup looked like a traveling freak show to me and thats just not the Guns that I grew up loving. ?Anyway, my point here is that the band appeared much less "weird" looking last night and thats fine by me).

quick sidenote:
My dad just called to see how the show was. ?After I talked his ear off for 10 minutes, he said that was great and made sure to remind me that he saw the original gnr open for Aerosmith in like '88. ?He actually sorta met Axl backstage. ?thanks dad. ?

getting back to the show. ?so much to tell so i'll just try to recap put down as much as possible. ?I haven't read through all the posts in this thread so sorry if some some of this is repeated. ?But i'll give you my take anyway. ?

- I was reading through some of the posts starting at 11 when the show started and think it's great that so many who weren't there were able to sort of follow along on this board. ?I'm sure it's been mentioned by now, Live and Let Die was played early in the set maybe after Better. ?It was preceding this song that Axl said (and i'm loosely quoting) "There are a lot of people out there who think they know whats going on....inside Guns...n....Roses. ?(He said gnr kinda slow and deep in a funny sort of way). ?But thats ok. ?thats how it goes sometimes. ?you gotta take the good with the bad. ?the bad with the good. ? and sometimes you just gotta Live n Let Die." ?it was something very close to that. ?hard to make him out at points - more on that later.

- I could totally understand how there was some confusion on the board as to which 3 guitarists were onstage. ?Honestly I had no idea. ?I didn't follow the 2002 lineup all that closely, but i recognized Richard Fortus (even though at first glance I was like Izzy! uh.....no). ?But I just assumed that Robin was out of the band and the two other guys were new. ?But then I heard Axl say Robin's name during the band introductions so i was sort of confused until i got home and read on the board about Robin's new look. ?I dig it. ?And he totally killed last night. ?I will always have a sore spot in my heart for the original lineup - more on that later too -but that grungy looking bastard impressed me last night and to come to realize that it was Robin...really opened my eyes. ?I'm going to be watching him extra close on Sunday night. ?great job by Robin last night.... : ok:

- The band sounded great. ?I have no complaints. ?As for Axl, for what I heard he sounded great. ?I honestly did not like what I heard on the 2002 bootlegs, but this did not sound like that. ?I'm hoping though that his vocals are raised for Sunday's show though. ?Maybe it's just where i was standing on the floor, but on many of the songs i could hardly make out his singing at all. ?I might try a standing a little further back on Sunday and seeing if that helps. ?Did anyone else down front have the problem of the guitars drowning out Axl at times?

- It was overwhelming just to be there. ?to be in the room when he first made his appearance and it was great to see him seemingly in a very good mood. ?happy and having a blast. ?at one point I think Richard walked over to Axl and said something to which Axl said in tot he mic, "Wait, repeat that." and into the mic Fortus (it may have been Stinson) said "I'm having a great time, are you?" ?the crowd roared. ? Axl all spent some time in the beginning of the show talking about Ny...saying "New York City....kinda reminds me of Paradise City. I've been spending some time here recently and have spent some night trying to learn how you all do it. ?Many nights that have gone into the next day actually. ?I think you fuckers are trying to kill me." ?he was joking and in good spirits....but....and i guess he wouldn't be Axl Rose if he wasn't at least a little bit of an asshole but when introducing Brain during the band intros he said "As Sebastian (Bach) said on the radio the other day, where the fuck was this guy when you guys hired Matt?" ?gotta admit that bummed me out a bit. ?Like i said i'm a big fan of the guns i grew up on and Matt Sorum is a part of that - i def prefer him to SA - and was it really necesary? ?i guess it was a joke, but i hope he refrains from taking shots at former members tommorrow night. ?just my take on it. ?

- along the same lines....the energy and excitement in that place last night was absolutely fantastic. ?Definately one of the coolest atmosphere's at a gig that i've been to. ?However, it was the same comment that kept comming up from lots of the people at the show (and at the bar afterwards till 5am) that i met....'as crazy as that was, imagine if it was the real/original band?!?...."

not sure i can imagine it, but especially after last night....to see how good Axl can still be...i would pay alot of money to see it. ?

- interesting side notes: ?Liam (or it might have been Noel) Gallagher from Oasis was there with a blonde date. ?he was in the VIP balcony stage right as was one of the guys from Winger. ?I would have never spoted either of these two but my friend is good like that. ?How he knew who the dude from Winger was...I'm not sure. (By the way, dude from Winger was rocking out! joining the sing along...)

- The Sebastian Bach My Michelle number was really great. ?definately made up for the initial disappoint that when Axl announced he was bringing out a special guest that it turned out to be...well...Sebastian Bach. ?but, he came out and said "YYYOOOUUU'RRREEEE ?FFFUUUUUCCCCKKIIINNNGG ?CRRRAAAZZZYYYY" a few times into the mic so that was cool. ?

-Highlights for me were probably WTTJ - i mean it was just so cool right then, SCOM, Out ta Get Me, TWAT and the Blues. ?after the some of the new songs were played Axl said "I see all you singing the new songs. ?you downloading motherfuckers." ?good stuff. ?Lots of pyro techincs thouhout the show and the place was filled with red and yellow confetti for second half of PC. ?really cool. ?I can't wait for Sunday bc i think i wll be able to enjoy more than i was able to last night. ?It was just so much! ?I was 30 feet away from Axl. ?I couldt get over that! ?

- After saying "good - fuckin - night" at the end of PC, Axl chucked his mic into the crowd as the lights went down. that fuckin mic was comming right at me except for the 30 motherfuckers who jumped up for it. ?despite them, it tipped off the guy in front of me's finger tips and deflected to my left. ?at the moment the lights went down. ?darkness. ?I reached in the dark to where i thought the mic would be on it's way down. ?it never hit my findertips. the next think i knew there were 15 people tacling eack other (and me) and grappling around on the floor. ?I didn't see the guy who got it. ?nobody did. ?he must have some how caught it and got the f out. ?i could have sworn it would have been right where my fingers were. ?damn. ?my buddy ended up losing the back of his phone, ripped the knees of this jeans, and bloodied up his knuckle going for it. ?good try

I'm def looking forward to sunday

i think its generally accepted knowledge that BH will be on CD (and likely the second album) but they needed a shredder to pull off his parts live. I wouldnt be surprised to see Thal go back and redo parts for the third album though-assuming they ever get to it.

im glad to hear axl enjoyed himself----i'm going to be interested to see if they switch up the setlist slightly the next few nights or if this is what we will have for the duration of the tour.

All I can say is that I got there at 6 and was in the line at the front of the building. All I saw was 1 line, but then it grew huge stretching around buildings an what not. Given the time I got into line, I was still able to get a seat in the Mezz dead center 4 rows back. Every seat in the place is great. Id say If you got there at 5 you'd be in a great position without to much waiting. Hope that helps you

He knows everyone hated the jersey look, so he went back to what people like.  That is what I think.  And in 2002, everyreview said he sounded better then ever.  Being there makes one think that, cause it is so fucking loud and you are into it.  However, the true test is after several shows how will he sound......  I am worried, these are demanding songs and he is getting old. 

Way to go anyways for what sounds like was a great show.  Good luck to the band and the newest member, Bumblefoot.
For christ sake, he's not that old, damn. If he treats his vocal cords with respect during this tour(no smoking or drinking of heavy alcohol), he should be just fine. : ok:

"The crowd didn?t go nuts for them. Most of the new songs are dystopian, tense, portentous, finally a bit inconclusive; they dabble in electronic rhythms, big keyboard sounds and droning repetition" NY Article


I dont agre i think the new songs are masterpieces


I agree - the writer didn't mention that 80% of the fans new the words and were singing along.  The writer is probably a "it's not GNR without Slash" type guy and had most of the review written before he even went to the show.

sometimes i wonder if these writers even go to the show. im all for a negative review but to say that the new songs didnt translate ...dead wrong...its not our fault u dont know the new songs or didnt care to look at the stage and see the guys go crazy playing their material...o and the fans basically reciting the words to all the new songs.... : ok:

I was at the show last night and was stunned by how few fans knew the new stuff (especially in the back of the venue and the balconies)...they kinda stood around with their arms folded...but that is exactly what happened in 91 when they played Illusion songs that nobody knew...they'll get up to speed when the album comes out  : ok:

as for the NYTimes, well...they never gush, and constantly refer to performers as Mr. This or Mr.That....they once called MeatLoaf "Mr. Loaf" :rofl:

Was there any moshing at the show last night??? If so who got the shit kicked out of them lol :rofl:

I was pushed up against the baracade, and there wasn't moshing, just a huge surge from the crowd. People trying to get an elbow in or push forward, many people were being carried out because they were faint. There was some crowd surfing. It was intense, I've always stayed towards the back, so this was the first time I've ever been against the baracade, front row

Untrue.  I was amazed by the reaction those songs got, particularly "Better."  I believe Axl even commented on how at least half of the theatre sang along to these unreleased songs: "Downloadin' motherfuckers."

I really think that these reviewers want to just be mean-spirited!

With GN'R especially. ?Critics shouldn't let it color a review, but most will tell you its hard to be in a good mood and feeling warm and fuzzy about the show when they can't get tickets (they probably bought them), they can't get even the most basic information (most bands would kill for a NYT preview), they're not allowed photos, they probably can't even get return phone calls. ?

I believe the NYT especially hates Axl, or I guess Merck, seeing as they complained (bitterly) that the letter Merck wrote to the Times was "factually incorrect" (read: he blatantly lied), which is why they say they couldn't publish it. ?And Merck brought up whassisname, the guy that faked the stories, a VERY sore point around there, and that sure wouldn't have won them any friends. ? The Times was probably chomping at the bit hoping like hell he'd fall flat on his face. ?At best, even if unintentional, their lemon-sucking writer would not been in a good mood, so things would have appeared negative to him, reflecting his mood. ? At worst, this was payback.

It will be very sad if there's hardly any other major reviews -- which is likely, seeing as most were probably blocked from covering it, or just too frustrated to bother. ?(Or they barely realized it was happening seeing as so little info was released in advanced). ? ?:(

Robin Finck saved the whole night, NYC shows and maybe even the European Tour when he saved Richard Fortus from getting severely burned!(I can't remember the song but it was when those things first came out--->these things)...Seems like  Fortus got distracted for a split second and started walking from right to left in front of Brian's drums when Finck quickly grabbed him from behind and pulled him back to where he came from and into the front of the stage. 5 seconds later this huge set of fire/sparkles came raining now just where RF would've been walking. At the moment Fick just laughed but you could see a sort of "phew!" expression. I don't think many people noticed this and if they did they just saw   it as nothing important. Well once again, thank you Robin Finck. hahaha I also touched him when he dove into the crowd :hihi:

Shiryu.

It was during November Rain, just before the "sheet" of inverted white sparklers started from overhead.  And wasn't it Tommy who had wandered back there (behind Axl's piano) and not Richard?  Robin was definitely the man for that quick save, not to mention his terrific new look and his performance last night - absolutely great all around.

Sound quality is okay, and video quality is not too bad, only problem is that it's too far from the stage.

You've got to remember that we don't have bucket anymore and so the solo's have to be changed a bit. I think the solo's need to have a touch of the guitarists own style to it, while obviously using a similar melodic structure. Bucket is no longer in the band, soooo we won't see bucket solo's anymore. simple  : ok:

Who cares that Buckethead's gone?

I was only 3, maybe 4 heads tops from the stage Friday night and Bumblefoot was on fire the entire show.

He looked nervous as fuck, but that's to be expected from his very first show with Gn'R....

You really couldnt have asked for a better guitar player if you wanted to though, and even my dad after the show said something like "at least Bumble-whatever, doesn't sound like a pinball machine or a broken blender during some of his solos"....

Ron shreds, but shreds more artistically, and stylish than Big B ever did I thought at least.. :peace:

did anyone notice robin fink save tommy from the pyro?  tommy was a bout to run to the other side of the stage and then Robin ran over and pulled him back and a second later fire was shooting down from the ceiling.  They both laughed after it happened but it was cool... you could see they get along very very good....... Its so different now than in 2002.   The Robin/Tommy/Richard/Axl Combo is the best the band ever had.  When they get their shit together(CD, more shows, videos) this will be a new, better band.  I spent as much time watching Robin, Tommy as Axl...they put on a great show.. and they really love GnR..... you can tell..... they connect with the fans... to all those going tonight... watch Robin as he looks out to the crowd.  Watch how happy he is.  Watch axl's smile as he's singing..... they are all really happy to be here this time.  Even pittman looked like he was having fun.... I wish they did a few more songs off CD instead of Live and Let Die, KOHD and they could lose Patience..... and lose the solos between songs.  I really wish they would do Estranged also.  Overall though... it was amazing.

Obviously now that Ron is in GNR he all of a sudden becomes the be all end all greatest , fastest shredder of all time but with "soul and feeling" .... all the while Bucket is now a hack right?? ?::)

Yeah , gimme a minute to change buckethead.tk into bumblefoot.tk? : ok:

 :rofl:

Bumblefoot , IMHO is a placeholder ...he may be a permanent member I guess but something tells me he's more of a fill in.

Obviously you weren't at the May 12th show were you? ::)

If you were you wouldnt have just refered to Bumblefoot as a "place holder" for Dickhead, oh sorry...Buckethead.

In one show I saw more interaction and chemistry with Ron playing with the whole band, than I have from more than a dozen bootlegs from the 2002 tour with Big B on guitar...

Axl, Robin, Richard, Tommy...they were all smiling at Ron and hanging off his shoulder like Axl used to do with Slash...did we see any of that with Bucket? No, why? because the guy has the personality of a dead fish...

You bash nesquick for bashing Bucket, but I warn you, dont even think of bashing Ron now that hes the new guy.

I think hes a breath of fresh air for the whole band now that they can speak to a persons face and not a hand puppet... ::)

Plus, my dad summed up Buckethead in Gn'R perfectly...

"Hes a hell of a guitar player, but his gimmick, YES i said GIMMICK detracts from the music and Gn'R performance for the worse"...

"It's like being in a 15th century museum, then theres a guy selling greasy hotdogs...just doesnt fit..." :peace:

 :rofl:

You proved my theroy correct! Dont bash the new guy , cause shucks , he's in GNR now!! Anyways , whatever ... I'm glad Axl seems confident in Big B's input on the album to atleast bring in a shredder capable of replicating hs parts live!  : ok:

As for gimmicks , c'mon ... he calls himself "bumblefoot" , he uses guitars shaped like hands and feet .. those arent gimmicks?! And hell no , I'm not ragging on ron .. but I do feel he is only there to do buckets parts. Just my opinion. I wish him well , obviously , as I AM a HUGE fan of this lineup , regardless of bucket being in the lineup or not.

Peoples reactions to bumble do have me worried though as it seems the majority of people say he has zero stage presence , but again , chalk it up to 1st show jitters? Tonight should answer more questions.

Some people at the sludge message board  that attended the show  are saying that the fans  weren't into the show. They were just standing there with their arms folded.   They are saying that the band was boring and that the reason fans acted that way was because GNR are a terrible live band .   Were the fans really not interested during the show??   If this is true  then I hope true fans attend the next 3 shows.   Maybe the true fans are attending the last 2 shows because they were the first ones announced.

i went in at 10 and easily made it half way up on the floor. when they came on there was a mad rush towards the stage. so i ended up about 10 feet from the stage and 10 feet to the right of the center part of the stage that extends out.

it was a little rough up there, and everyone was going crazy. (and i have bruises to prove it  :hihi:).

yes, there were plenty of people standing back enjoying the show. but the crowd was very much into it. very good crowd reaction IMO.

I was there AND I post at Sludge. There were certainly PLENTY of people rocking out Friday that I saw. It's hard to put much faith in anything posted on the Sludge board. It's mostly a forum for die-hard fans of various bands to push their agenda and bash other bands in the process. Very little objectivity there... and there is definitely a cabal of Slash/Duff lovers and general GN'R haters on those boards that want to see Axl fail- so they post grossly exaggerated bullshit.

My review-

Got to Mustang Harrys around 6 and met some of you- MikeGiullana, Hannahead, Barbie and others. Very cool talking to you and the Talking Metal Podcast guys. Mike- I am still laughing at when they asked you what your "board name" vs "real name" is- MIKE GIULLANA! LOL.

I actually had two tickets for myself (MEZZ1 and Floor) and I tried getting rid of one at Mustangs (face value) but it didnt happen. So I planned on going back and forth between the two floors when I got in, but I learned once you scanned the ticket, you couldnt leave, so I chose MEZZ 1 (I followed Sebastian in, I was right behind , cool).

Anyway, a comment about Bullet for My Valentine- they were LOUD!!! Maybe I am just old but that was pretty damn loud. What is it with anopening acts these days? They are always super loud as opposed to the headliner. This was the case at the last few concerts I have gone to.

I thought BFMV was pretty good. I wouldnt want to listen to them more than 45 minutes, but I give them credit. They had a tough audience and they played to it and were professional. I thought they were pretty cool- maybe I had low expectations.

On to the show-

Its pretty funny, as GNR fans we all agree that Axl came on "early"- it was 11 PM! I crack up at these reviewers- like the NY Post, who thought the crowd was pissed at this. I know must of us were expecting much later, 11 was EARLY!

Observations-

Robin Finck- It really was his show, and I didnt expect that. I know we all came to see Axl (me included), but I wasnt a fan of Robins coming in, I am a die hard now. He was incredible with his stage presence, his playing and crowd surfing. The guy has passion- and lets remember, he has been in GNR for a long time . He is approaching Slashs time in terms of longevity in the band and that has to count for something. He is a true Gunner!  Finck was awesome. His solo before SCOM was very Hendrix like.

Axl- what else do I need to say? He turned the clock back . This performance was better all round- BAND included than when I saw them last- at UYI at MSG in December 91. Much better and of course, that includes Axl.

Richard Fortus also impressed me. He seemed nervous (along with Bumblefoot) in the beginning, like he was trying really hard, but he got better and better.

Bumblefoot- Give him a chance. The only criticism I have of him was that I found his solo to be a little boring. It lacked feeling.


Brain- I really didnt notice him. I am kind of ambivalent about his playing. Maybe I am not a drum guy. Although I liked his playing alot on BETTER (which was so great- listening to the boot right now).



Songs-

Mr Brownstone, Better, Out Ta Get Me and Chinese Democracy ( I LOVED that new opening), SCOM, the Blues (cant wait to hear the studio version) My Michelle (Of course with Bas) were real stand outs. Patience was also very awesome in electric mode.

The sound was really horrible on Maddy (not a big fan of that song anyway) and IRS (real unfortunate). I gotta say, I couldnt really hear what the hell Axl was saying to the crowd for the most part- it sounded like he was underwater. Listen to the boot- it should come with subtitles.


Anyway, having seen them in the 80s, 90s and now this decade, I have to say this is the BEST and tightest version of the band I have heard. My opinion and thats all.

 :peace:

Good post, great read. I'm glad you mentioned that about Chinese Democracy, that new intro rocks! I couldn't hear the second verse but the old first verse was gone and the old second verses lyrics were moved to there so I found that interesting!

I saw them in the late 80's, early 90s and 2002 and I agree this is by far the best Guns N' Roses show I've seen.

:O!!!


some people think it might be because its to damaging to his voice and not doing it might be helping him pull off the 2 hour set.

its ok man, the song still rocked with out it.  hearing those beinging notes friday night, knowing the band was really going to perform was the greatest thing these ears had heard in a long time.

Just imagine Axl in say a black smart shirt, jeans and some black shoes and you have a perfect, 40 something frontman IMO.


He isn't 25 anymore. Pushing envelopes should'nt be a concern of his.
