Could this be the high profile gig needed to launch a new chapter?
I think it is. They may not play a new single but it’s clearly a promotional gig.
Question is...where’s the warmup gig?

This isn’t Billboard running a story on the reunion or Blabbermouth reporting on ticket sales. This is actual cross over promotion.
Ah. I didnt know it would be advertised over TV and shit. I'm sure it will be the same off from the band though. Even tho it's great free publicity for maybe a single or news of a release. But I'm pretty confident the price was just right and it's another cash stop.
Oh no doubt about that.

Wow...EASILY the highest profile appearance (not largest show) they have made since the VMAs. Honestly maybe even ever.
With my luck this will be the year the Patriots don’t make it...

I’ll pay 1000 USD for an unheard GNR with vocals. Inquire within.

As well as of course, newer material
yeah but the newer material is going to be the 94-96 sessions with new added vocals and the old material is going to be the 97-14 stuff probably doesn't make sense but 94-96 sessions were only instrumentals and 97-14 had vocals so it only makes sense to call the more recent stuff old
That's a LOT of assumptions.
While the vault material is obviously in play, Slash and co. are quite capable of busting out some songs quick style and they've had nearly four years to do it.
I don’t think anyone questions the ability of Slash/Duff to bust out a new song...I think we are all skeptical of the lead singer to bust out vocals.

I’m fascinated by what it was about the songs that Axl recorded vocals for and the ones that (at this point in time) were left instrumental. Like, what was it about Scraped that made him want to record vocals on vs. Quick Song, Soul Monster (later recorded), Prom Violence etc.

I also agree but would bet there is some legal obligation (or debt) related to releasing new music.

Random thought unrelated to the poll, but listening to these songs again makes me realize what monsters Brain/Freese were on drums. I like Frank as the touring drummer and have even gone to great lengths defending him but wow. This drumming is phenomenal.

It’s very catchy even if incomplete. I would say the same thing about Nothing. I don’t think Eye on You or Nothing have potential to be great songs, but they do prove Axl was capable of creating a strong hook at the time.
