Just thought I'd beg and plead as sometimes I think GNR lurk here....

I think they only did twat twice so far right? I know some people around wern't too happy about the NYC peformance....but that was just a warm up gig afterall...and I think the other show where they played it it was pretty impressive....

Listen to this MP3 of Ron playing the bucket solo..forget where...was it spain or soemthing? pretty killer imo....

Am I alone in thinking that's pretty bad ass? Now that we have Chinese Democracy...i'd love a live show with a few of those tunes mixed in with the old favourites.....I think it could be pretty awesome.

I'm sure they realise reading these boards, it's definitely one of the most popular songs on the album. It got a few great reviews during radio play here in the UK when the album came out too.

They definitely should have released it as a single.

...And Bumblefoots playing was fantastic during that Madrid gig solo.

Since it won our CD elimination here, I would imagine most would agree. The song being excluded wouldn't cause my panties to go into a bunch, but I'd definitely prefer to hear this song over some deep cut from AFD.

Oh yeah...i wouldn't get upset about it either...it was more that i happened to hear that boot of it today and realised how kickass it sounded...makes me think a lot of the CD songs could be pretty awesome live.....

Twat is probably my most skipped song, the outro is good but the first half is a bit of a let down and I dont think the lyrics are particuarly great either.
On the other hand I would definently like to hear all of Chinese Democracy live and less of the old bands material.

Any time they played twat in 06 it sounded under rehearsed to me, I was pleased to hear that they have been spending some time in rehearsals this year - I hope it was to perfect all the new songs for maximum impact when playing them live.

Axl can't sing the song. That's why they didn't play it too much, it was awful. I don't wanna hear any old song though, if a tour happens.

Nobody would show up if they didn't play the classics.  10% might show up to hear CD, the rest don't care.
