Yeah I agree. I figured AIC would play at least 12 songs.

Especially considered how much money the attendees paid.

Maybe management didn't pay AIC as much as they thought?

I have no clue

Final AIC setlist:

1) Again
2) Check My Brain
3) Them Bones
4) Stone
5) Rooster
6) Got Me Wrong
7) Man In The Box
8) No Excuses
9) Would?

I hear rumors, believe it or not, the Democrats are thinking it too.

Bernie right now is on a winning streak, and like I told you before, there is a LARGE LARGE segment of the Democratic party who HATES Hilary, and would almost rather Trump win than Hilary. There's been rumors of an insurrection in the Democratic party that want to pull a brokered convention with the DNC in order to give Bernie a final push over Hilary, feeling the party more lines with Bernie, who's a TRUE progressive (gotta give him that), and Hilary is basically a neo-Con in a Democratic suit (which is true too).

Whether it'll happen? I doubt it. Hilary is a Bilderberger, an insider... she's already a lock. They might lose their stranglehold on the GOP with a Trump nom... they're willing to possibly let that happen. No way they let Hilary get up-staged by Bernie, even if it's the right thing to do.

The political system is shitting itself with the mere thought of a Sanders vs. Trump election (even if I think it'd be bad ass)

Those Bernie supporters ain't shutting up, and many people in the Democratic party have been pissed that people like Bill, Hilary & Obama in recent years have toed the line with liberal social policies, but leaving the door open for almost NEO-CON fiscal policies, with the exception of the tax code. They raise taxes on the upper class, but allow the uber-rich to go off scot-free, allow opt-outs to Medicaid-expansion in states like Florida with sitting Republican governments (which is why I am without health insurance, along with others in other states), and Bernie represents the disenfranchised on the other side who are jobless and saddled with college loan debt because they were sold a bill of goods, and see how the rest of the world works, albeit with VERY little understanding of the problems of socialism... but it means nothing...

In a nutshell, there are Democrats who feel like people like Bill, Hilary & Obama don't go FAR ENOUGH in instituting Democratic and progressive policies in the same manner Trump appeals to populists.

There are many people in the Democratic party in America that would love to see the party institute a system similar to how Canada is run, and don't understand why in the 21st century, when the rest of the world is Socialist, why the U.S. continues to argue about such trivial bullshit.

I can't blame them, even if I don't agree with them on half of what they say.

Bernie appeals to "the rest". Problem is "the rest" is the majority of the Democratic party, REGARDLESS of how many of the insider "Super delegates" Hilary has.

I grabbed a ticket today for Orlando (July 29th).

I tried to get tix, right when they went on sale at 10am ET, and it was a fucking nightmare. The system was buggy as hell, said their was like ALL SEATS AVAILABLE (really?), then took them away, then shut it down and said it was experiencing technical difficulties.

Came back later around 5pm, and a totally different layout was there to select each seat, plus a classic 'Guns N Roses' banner above the sale.

But the prices... fuck... the prices man.

I wanted to get a side stage seat ticket, like I have the two previous NA tours, but none were on sale. The ones mid-range from the stage were $250 large. Then the ones down on the floor were like $400-450 bucks (not kidding), unless you wanted to sit back at the mixer and THAT was $250 bucks. They were selling 3rd tier seats, which at the Citrus Bowl are BENCHES... you know, like a High School football game... BENCHES, and they were $100 after fees.

Are you kidding?

Anyways, I kept trying to fuck with the system, and come up with something and finally I found the best value which was a 2nd-terrance seat, close to the stage, but one tier up, for $150. Even after all the bullshit endgame gimmicks, it was still over $200 bucks.

But it seems to be a good ass seat too, without the extra $100.

Either way... it better be a good goddamn show. These are fucking World Series prices man.

It's labeled new, because of two reasons. 1) Label never gave CD a proper rollout (which is why Axl defiantly toured it THREE times), and 2) most people, after the 2002 fiasco + 2006 fiasco, had already bailed by the 2008 release.

I think there's alot of people out there, that weren't the 5,000 people in attendence at nuGuns shows, just have never ever heard these Chinese songs. So they're new to them.

Even in 2006, which everyone saw as the holy grail reboot... I saw a show in front of 3,000 people. Maybe it was poor booking by Merck, I dunno... but all these hype that people thought was there, even in 2006 -- was not.

The band however was on fire musically.
