Re: 14/7/16 LINCOLN FINANCIAL FIELD, PHILADELPHIA, PA UNITED STATES
I thought Slash killed it on Sorry....Axl too. Pretty badass imo.
However, I would rather hear The Seeker any day of the week over Slither. The Who vs Vr? No brainer......
Forget all the petty bullshit. Guns is kicking a shit ton of ass right now.
I know I'm in the huge minority but I love how they perform The Seeker! I really don't understand the overwhelming hate that song gets. With that being said, I saw them perform that song last time, so I'd prefer Slither, Breakdown, Yesterdays, another CD song, etc. if given the choice. But if they do play it, and it looks like they will, I will rock the F out to it! If no one joins me, so be it.

If they're going to continue to experiment with Chinese cuts, I'm very interested to hear Slash's take on IRS. IMO the most Illusion sounding track of the whole Chinese saga.
Don't think it's on the list of alternates, but I agree IRS is an underrated track and Slash would probably make it even better.

In isolation it's ok.
It's not like it's a bad song or badly done.
My issue with it is the opportunity cost of it.
Like I see it as a placeholder song that is hogging a spot in the setlist where we could have Sailing, or TWAT, or any number of the great things they hardly ever do, or indeed the amazing covers you could do with Slash/Fortus/Axl on board....
I'd be the same, I'd rock out to it when it's on - it just frustrates me that it's a regular-automatic inclusion last few years when there's so many originals and other long lost stuff that lives on the alternate list only or worse is just not included at all.

I get all that, and don't necessarily disagree with you. But they've played it at every show in the encore before PC, so there must be a reason. I'm guessing they enjoy performing it and like the way it fits into the set. It doesn't look like that'll change anytime soon, so all the complaining isn't accomplishing much.
