Best possible setlist for fans means the perfect setlist for me.

The performance is better if the musicians aren't bored of playing the same setlist.

Anyway, you are not aware that it's a Guns N' Roses forum, therefore minor things, like Axl Rose, Steven Adler, GN'R setlists are important topics here. So talking about how lame it is to play the same show every night is not fanboyism. Hailing it as the 'best for the fans' is fanboyism. Axl and his musicians did a great job in Asia and Canada, where they changed the setlist. I praised them for it. Now there is plenty of room for criticism.

Again with the insults - kinda masking the lack of substance, eh.

1- again - everyone has different wants and needs. Most want classic gnr. So what's best for you or i, isn't best for everyone.

2 - not if they are nailing the songs, which they are.

3- Calling a set list "about right" while backing it up with objective reasoning, including an admission that i would prefer a different set list couldn't be further from fan boyism. at this point you are throwing blind punches and wasting my time while doing so.

I am aware that this is a gnr forum and have been talking about gnr since i joined.

I'm not asking you to discuss Russia's arms treaty. I'm challenging you to 'Man Up and intelligently discuss the set list and accept that it is nothing more than preference and opinion rather than crying about what gnr is playing in a country you do not live in and insulting anyone who disagrees with you.

OMG. So this is the PERFECT setlist. That's what I call fanboyism. Any musician with an ounce of self-respect (not to mention the respect towards the fans) would be bored of playing the same shit every night. There's no challenge and no joy in that. GN'R's doing it only shows how 'ambitious' Axl is and what he thinks of the fans.

apparently anyone that doesn't bitch about unimportant stuff like gnr set lists in a world full of bigger issues, is a "fan boy". why do you care if the musicians like it or not? - that's on them. their job is to please the fans - not themselves. and i could care less what songs they play when im not there as long as the highest percentage of fans that were there, leave happy. everyone else complaining about the set list for shows that they are not attending need to get a life. i agree with axlin that if the set list isn't more cd heavy when the tour comes your way - you don't have to go. i probably won't, myself, but i understand that i am in the minority by hoping for more cd songs when most of the people that are going to the show are hoping for the songs they are familiar with.

depends on the person - they are casual fans for so many different reasons. to say that none of them are open to new things like hearing 6-9 new songs in a 20 song set list seems absurd. i'd even venture to say that more of the hardcores were dissappointed with cd than some of the casual fans would be if and when they were to hear it. hearing the songs on a cd for the first time and hearing them first at a concert are two different things, ofcourse. personally, i would love all 14 cd songs on the list but i think 6-9 works best for everyone.

you sure make the same mistake often, saying how much other people don't know about this or that while not knowing, yourself, how wrong you are. people not complaining about the set list aren't fan boys - they just don't care cause chancs are 99.99 percent that they are only going to see one show. my guess is, everyone, in gnr (axl included) would rather do 20 different songs every show but are doing what works the best for the fans. to me, that's the way it should be. as far as tori amos, grow some balls and u wouldn't be so intimidated by other's preferences and opinions and, in this case, JOKES. loosen up, man.
