Re: Just an idea - its 3am, bear with me
People have talked of a potential nod to Scott Weiland based on rehearsal rumor, and I got to thinking of Lemmy since I know Slash was very close with him. So I was listening to some Motorhead as well as Ozzy, remembered that Lemmy wrote the majority of See You On The Other Side, and it hit me - it would not only be a fitting tribute, but good god an Axl rendition of that song would be incredible. Hey, a guy can dream.
Re: Just an idea - its 3am, bear with me
Guns recently played Marseilles in tribute to the late Doc Neeson of The Angels.
Lemmy was from Stoke, like Slash. There's bound to be a song in the Motörhead back catalogue that would fit. See You on the Other Side would be a good choice, tho.
I'm almost positive Axl and Kimmel will touch upon the subject of Lemmy next week.
Re: Just an idea - its 3am, bear with me
I think both will be paid tribute to. I don't think the guys are as hung up about playing each others songs, as some think. I reckon they're likely to be more selective about their own material. Like Axl will be more reluctant for Duff/Slash to play some CD songs, and verse versa.

Would be funny if Axl sang, "I ain't no nice guy after all".

I could actually see that happening, Axl's got the sense of humor to see the awesomeness that that'd bring

As usual, Knockin on Heavens Door will be used to tribute the ones who've passed.
I was hoping that song would be finally left off the set list. 
I'd love to hear Axl sing See You on the Other Side. Great choice man. Slash and the band could definitely drive it home too behind Axl.

After listening to it I could easily see that Motorhead track being performed. Not nightly but at least early in the tour. Thanks for posting it. I had completely forgot about that song. I can picture a Motorhead tribute more than a Weiland tribute.

Winner winner chicken dinner!

Me too. It aint gonna happen though. Its too big. skydog will want to lynch me after saying this but KOHD has become a Guns song, not Dylan. Same with LALD. LALD should have been retired when he came back in 01 but unfortunately it wasn't.
I'd prefer most if not all covers were gone during a reunion tour. A rotation of deep cuts would be better than having to play a handful of popular covers every night. If playing covers, dig into TSI since they never toured that album.
