Guest Sweet Tooth Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 First things first, don't be saying "hopefully they don't play covers" because they always have, always will. Secondly, I'm sure this thread has been done before... but not for this specific upcoming tour...So, now onto my point... what covers would you like to hear Guns pull off for the upcoming South American tour? Whole songs, intros or outros, what would knock you off your boots if Axl belted out a song that you've always wanted him to sing? For bumblefoot to shred? For Frank to destroy the drum kit to?I would like to hear something from Judas Priest, I think a Axl is the only one that can come near any of Halford's wails and it would be interesting as hell for us to hear him do something of the sort, maybe Victim of Changes?Your opinions?

Spirit Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 For Axl... bring back Dust In The Wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuddMckagan Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I still maintain that Axl would sound epic on either The Show Must Go On or Who Wants To Live Forever by Queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sweet Tooth Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I still maintain that Axl would sound epic on either The Show Must Go On or Who Wants To Live Forever by Queen.Seeing him perform a song by Queen would be most likely, for obvious reasons. Besides a few band tributes and other covers that Guns have played, it's hard to tell exactly what music Axl listens to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henfjel Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 (edited) i hope they drop covers and play new material instead! but like you said they will play covers.if i could choose three covers it'd be:Suckertrain Blues by Velvet Revolver (with vocals in the verses like Axl and Duff did on its so easy)Superunknown by Soundgarden (damn, i can almost hear richard ripping into that intro riff..)Immigrant Song or Black Dog by Led Zeppelin (fuck, both would be sick)EDITBlack Dog with just Axl, Fortus, Tommy and Frank. that would rock hard Edited August 13, 2011 by henfjel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kill Devil Hill Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Rooster by Alice In Chains.This and/or "Hurt" by NIN. But if I had my way, I'd want to hear "Silent Screams" by Halford, but there's no chance of that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iftheworld Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 (edited) I would like to hear some GNR. Forget about doing cover songs and focus on performing CDII songs. Edited August 13, 2011 by iftheworld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Len B'stard Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 (edited) I think Axl has an amazing bluesy-ness to his voice that never really gets much of an airing. It'd be interesting to hear him do something like Smokestack Lightning...or Wang Dang Doodle, i could imagine Axl really laying into that :) Edited August 13, 2011 by sugaraylen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
