until Axl wanted to be Elton
Ok, just kidding. Axl wanted to be Elton since he could listen to the radio. And that is just as it should be.

There's some quote of Axl saying if November Rain isn't recorded correctly or perfectly he'd quit.

Yeah it was very dear to him, he had the song in him since at least 1986.
the funny irony is the born-in-the-studio "Estranged" is in fact a much better song (imho).
NR "tastes" like a big cake with toooooo much chantilly on it while "Estranged" is a truly poignant tune (imo again).

Estranged is such a great song with great lyrics. It's the Midnight Rambler of GnR i guess.

only GnR could have written Estranged.

Slash's finest hour? The melody lines he brought to Axl's chords are simply exquisite. He really grew between AFD and UYI and he brought so much to the 1991 sessions that it was natural that he took control of the band.
As much as I like Izzy his imput on the UYI albums was minimal.

Tour finishes in Vancouver. Lots of tours hitting the city around the same time. Just bought Amex presales for Pink on Oct 20 and waiting for Springsteen tickets for Nov 3. Hopefully Stones too!
Surprised they're playing Moncton New Brunswick. City has less than 100k population and the stadium that they're playing is very small on the university campus.

Just announced 2023 World Tour starting in Tel Aviv and coming back thru the US in the Fall, including Fenway and Wrigley. Wonder how that will impact the Stones' plans for the Fall........

Wonder if they will change their set list? Someone made a weird choice to include Wichita Lineman in their last tour. Fingers crossed for more killer, less filler this time.

Personally I think Locomotive is up there with Achilles Last Stand or Funeral For A Friend as one of the all time great epics but they don't pull it out too much.
