Lol they didn’t play it.

Running out of time for Perhaps…

So if they actually play it, we should expect it on all platforms by midnight?

9 of the 2023 top 10 are sequels or a remake (Little Mermaid). And I’m not necessarily sure you’d call Mario Bros original. So basically, none are an original thought or concept.

If setlist.fm is to be believed, Bad Obsession was played after they opened with ISE.

Have they played SOD yet?
A couple of times last year.
Thanks! Went and listened to a rendition from last year. Slash takes the first part of the solo and noodles mindlessly, then Fortus plays true to the second part. I’ve loved Slash’s takes on Better and TIL and he makes the Bucket part of TWAT work, but this was like…uninspired? In the video I watched it actually seemed like Axl was trying to get him into the song.

U2’s reinvention/return to the classic style actually came in 2000 with “Beautiful Day” and an album full of hits like “Elevation” from the “Tomb Raider” movie. Fast forward two years and they give an emotional 9/11 tribute at their Super Bowl performance which many consider the best Super Bowl show ever.
An inner ear monitor recording of that “Think About You” rendition was circulating by the end of the 2002 tour. Axl sounds terrible on it. It probably felt like a fun throwback idea to him at the time, but in execution it frigging died on the vine.
Unless they do something imaginative like the AfD-in-full idea I threw out there as a Hail Mary Pass, they will be right back to 2002-levels of attendance at concerts: A few successes in big markets but otherwise curtains cordoning off whole sections of seating like I saw 21 years ago.
Bring on some new leaks to force the band’s hand.
Axl and Slash will never be 2002 attendance levels. They can do amphitheaters with a representative opening act and be fine. Problem now is they are doing ballparks thinking they still have novelty. They don’t. They think the public sees them differently than Motley and that’s not true at this point. Motley is touring with Def Leppard to help pay the bills. Would this GnR ever share the loot like that? Ask Izzy.

I'd rather hear him on It's Five O Clock Somewhere than Contraband.
While it's possible Contraband could've been a GNR album in the 2000s, Slash walking away is the only thing that prevented that Snakepit material from being on the next GNR album.
Axl AND Duff prevented it from being a GnR album. Duff says so in his book. It wasn’t Slash walking away, he brought the material to the other two partners and two partners said no.
