Re: 12 GN'R shows in Las Vegas
The only thing I take from that is that it might be shorter. Or maybe that they're gonna throw in You're Crazy, Anything Goes or whatever.
Not trying to be negative but that's how I feel.
Why you gotta be sooooo negative all the time Russ? 
Re: 12 GN'R shows in Las Vegas
My only hope for the show is that they don't do anything crazy. I know everyone is sick of the SOS show, but I haven't seen it yet, so I'm okay with that. If it turns into playing CD from start to finish, it will be my shortest concert experience ever.
Short of a reunion (which isn't going to happen), I guess a special guest or maybe an acoustic set would be cool.
Re: 12 GN'R shows in Las Vegas
Not sure if this was posted, but an interesting article on the Vegas residency that provides some details on what it means and the advantages of doing this. The thing that struck out to me was that this isn't just playing the Joint 12 times. GN'R is taking over the entire Hard Rock Hotel and Casino from a branding perspective. As much turnover as Vegas has, it sounds like a way to reach a lot of people.

Re: 12 GN'R shows in Las Vegas
At some point, I'll have my last GNR show, and Axl will have his last show.
My mother always told me the story of my grandmother wanting to see Elvis in Indiana - only a 3 hour drive. My mother said "oh, mom, he'll be back again." Only he wasn't. That was the last one.
Morbid, but, hey. I won't make the mistake I made in 2002 "It's during school! I'll wait for the summer..."
