That slash take on the bucket solo is just incredible it sounds awesome!

I must admit I thought it would be a disappointment. I was fully prepared for Mickey Mouse running thru the same setlist we've had for the past 8 years & the whole thing would just be phoned in.
Absolutely.
I mean Axl has failed at performances for "important" shows before - think about Rio 2012. Then there was the second residency - where they had promised us great things but the band seemed to be on autopilot and you could almost feel the frustration in the air from the band themselves.
I thought there was a serious danger that Axl may come out Mickey, and that Slash would be mournfully doing these shows to recoup divorce dollars but really still have all his heart in his solo stuff.
It's so wonderful to be happily surprised by this band again.
We've really gone back to the era of the old days...where you know it's going to be amazing.
Sorry for the hate too - but I have to say Pitman's comments are so out of line. The guy spent 20 years playing in essentially a GNR cover band and was one of the least important people on stage - and then has the nerve to criticise Slash and Duff for wanting to come back and play their own songs? The more I think about it the more I realise how absurd a statement it was.

I think this show is one of the best so far from what I'm hearing on the (admittedly low quality periscope) - Chinese Democracy sounds amazing....and twat....damn.

I agree they really seem to be putting in the work to make these good - like Coma, TWAT and so on. Always dreamed they'd play stuff like this but wasn't really sure they would.

It's so good. I wish we had a studio of this version. Slash sounds awesome the way he solos over the ending....
#1576 Re: Guns N' Roses » 20/4/16 FORO SOL, MEXICO CITY, MEXICO » 525 weeks ago
I hope they keep playing twat - sooner or later someone will do a great boot of it.

Sounded like Axl missed the high note in the middle (nailed in back in 2009 so he can do it live) but otherwise this version was fucking amazing.
Slash covering the bucket solo but with his slash way....sounded fantastic.

Replaying this link: https://www.periscope.tv/gastonsosa/1mrGmLjlqdgKy
You can hear twat from about half way through the song inc slash solo

What i've heard of this show sounds really good. Damn i hope they proshoot on a night where Axl is "on" like this.

I dunno, saw them live about 2 years back and the mix of hits was incredible. It's like AC/DC where at this stage they have so many good songs that a hits show is awesome.
