RussTCB Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 No need to discuss the set list predictions seeing as we already know what they'll play and the order they'll play it in. I also don't think we need to discuss the possibility of new music because, lol. However, there are other things to discuss about the next show. What do you think we happen? Will Fortus still be in the band? That seems a little up in the air with all the gear he's selling. Will Slash get back to playing his own solos remotely close to how he recorded them? I wonder if he was so burned out by the end of the last run, that he was just playing whatever he wants. Will Axl be prepared? Dude never, ever properly prepared for a tour but I'm hoping (like an idiot) that this time is different. What else is anyone wondering about? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manfisman Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 The lineup will be the same: Axl & Slash will be good if they're motivated. At this point, they can only be motivated IF there's something new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allwaystired Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 It'll be exactly the same as the shows they did at the beginning of 2020. Same band, same songs, same visuals. If there's anything different I'd be very surprised. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some lesser members will give a few meaningless interviews babbling about how Covid set back their plans and they have to get back into the groove and that they just wanna give the people a good time for now. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude never, ever properly prepared for a tour but I'm hoping (like an idiot) that this time is different. What else is anyone wondering about? If Axl is ever going to be motivated again then it's now when he's been forced off the road for the almost 2yrs. Last time he was motivated was 2006 and he got Sebastian Bachs vocal coach to help him get into shape, and he sounded incredible. I very much doubt he's in that mindset. If there's ever been a time where he needed a vocal coach to kick his ass it's right now. Fortus will still be in the band, he's going to ride it out until the very end. Slash and Duff will be motivated to play at least for the very first couple of shows just because of the break, if it's the same set-list as 2016-2020 then the motivation won't last. You would think this full stop on NITL from Covid would mean they say it's time to make a new set-list. I'd love if they rotated opening songs similar to the Metallica method. 9 minutes ago, El Guapo said: This. Maybe they will play a very weak hardschool.

Gordon Comstock Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Why do people think Fortus selling gear has anything to do with his status in the band? He's amassed a huge collection over the years, and it's time to clear some space for new stuff... Best case scenario: - Axl sounds comparable to 2017... not great, but better than the later NITL shows. - Hardschool, Pretty Tied Up and maybe a few more deep cuts added to the set, and they change the order up a bit (open with PTU instead of It's So Easy or something) - Slash plays solos that at least somewhat resemble the album versions But in reality it will be like the Mexico 2020 show. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post James Bond Posted April 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2021 My predictions: Axl will suck. Slash will suck. Duff will be punk as fuck. Richard will show some more side boob. Frank will actually be just fine but because everybody else sucks he will be blamed for the suckage. Dizzy will have a new djembe to make Welcome to the Jungle sound better than it ever has. Steven and Izzy don't have shit on this new djembe. Melissa will have a new hair colour and take over on lead vocals for most of the set. 1 2 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underhardy Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 At this point, this is an easier prediction than being the weatherman in Los Angeles. Axl will sound like Mickey and when he pushes his voice will crack. Slash and the rest of the band will kick ass per usual. They’ll add 1-2 older numbers into the setlist. And maybe, if we’re lucky, we’ll get a new cover song 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom2112 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 1 minute ago, Muddy said: Sadly, slash seems to have lost his chops. His timing , rhythm and feel have taken a major hit and he pretty much noodles random notes in place of the guitar solos . I hate to say it but Guns N’ Roses as a live band are terrible nowadays. That being said it’s still a great time to go see them and hear the hits. I predict the next tour will be exactly the same as the Not in this lifetime tour. I agree he's lost a step on the lead end of things, but I think his rhythm is as good as ever. His leads are pretty consistent too, like his not stumbling over the solos in sweet child, I think he just has some shoddy bends sometimes, plays too long and I hate his CD improv work.

Did you try sitting on your hand?🤣 It was a weird look though, in general he looks weird though long, short whatever... too much money and Hollywood bad combo.

Yeah true, I enjoyed it too... but if that did happen and she was taking lead vocals, that's 1 song in the set. People pay to hear Axl sing, and most people don't seem to care if he sounds good/bad they just want to see him up there running around with his red mic. I If GNR came out on a tour and Melissa suddenly sang 5 songs in the set, it would almost certainly get ripped apart. I think the best bet for GNR if they were worried about Axls voice (they aren't... they should be) is to get a on the road vocal coach to whip him into shape... You can zoom this stuff these days, doesn't even need to be on the road! and if that fails then they should rearrange the set, play songs that are easier to be consistent on. If that doesn't work, cut and run! they had a successful tenure! I would like to see a Melissan/Axl duet though on a song similar in style to TIL or something though... could be cool on a new album.

Tyson Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Axl sounds like shit, isn't in very good shape and he takes certain songs out of the setlist because he can no longer sing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, the majority of the set? (Seriously though, I'd be fine with them cutting the set down to 7 or 8 'must play' songs and then filling out the rest of the show with deep cuts, or covers, or anything that Axl can actually sing...)
