#481 Re: Guns N' Roses » We don't really expect a new setlist do we? » 276 weeks ago

I heard a radio ad this morning for the concert in Boston. We’re a week and a half away…wonder if sales are struggling.

I remember being surprised this took so long to leak. Can’t really recall what the major differences were on the album version (outside of normal Axl/Caram/Ron stuff).

I know people complain about the roughness in Axl’s vocals, but I didn’t mind it. I can do without his “clean” voice.

With the Trunk leak I always thought “cool idea but needs more power”. I think Axl tried to get there on the album version, but it still lacks the raw power, rock vibe of AFD and UYI rockers like Right Next Door to Hell and You Could Be Mine like i thought it would have in finished form. Sounded better live than any recording.

Even if if is the same old shit can they at least switch up the order? Can’t walk out there have Duff kick off the show with the It’s So Easy bass line and call it an all new show.

Legitimately forget if there was a version of this before the album. Not sure if it was part of Skewrl or some other leak.

Only thing I’ll say is I’m kind of shocked Axl left Bucket’s solo (which is fantastic). I do wonder what the science was (or lack thereof) of which Bucket solos got re-recorded and which didn’t.

(Skipping Scraped because first impression was the album)

I like Riad a lot more than others. Definitely should have kept the bucket solo.  I think it was an amazing display of karma that the tinkering on this particular track got them sued…how much ambient noise do you need? Outside of the blatant ripoff, just oblivious to how people consume music…not a song worthy of (plagiarized) intro nonsense.

Easily one of, if not the biggest abominations on the album. After desperately waiting for a proper version to compare to the original cassette leak, it was just gross.

This coming from someone who doesn’t necessarily mind Ron’s solo, maybe because I never found May’s that compelling.

Still my favorite song on the album. It was obviously overworked on the finished version compared to the 06 leak, but I’m fine with it. It was designed to be overworked.

The child chorus opening/ending can go, but I like Axl’s (I think) power chords on “it was a long time for you…”. I feel it was a small miracle Axl left the Bucket solo.

First impression of the track from the Skewrl leak was that it was a funky song with a killer bass line. On the album, Axl and Caram said fuck you no bass which was majorly disappointing. Pretty much an immediate skip for me.

First time I heard this one was Rio 3, but during the 02 tour this song was perfected.

The intro was completely fucked over on the album version but by then they had been playing it like that for a couple years so, whatever. Outside of that I don’t have a big problem with what ended up on the album.
