The setlist has gotten a lot shorter on the latest leg of the tour, with fewer CD songs.
But if you had a choice of adding one song to the setlist, what would it be?  Would it be a song from CD?  AFD? Illusions?

For me - it would be Coma. I'd love to see it played live.
I would have mentioned Estranged, but it looks like we're going to get that one at some point - based on the comments made recently.

So, let's hear your choices.  And you can only choose one.

I love Axl, but he could hardly sing Coma live in '92. It's a really demanding song. I've always really liked the guitar work in Locomotive. I'm not sure if they've ever played it live. There's footage of them rehearsing it with Jeff Beck, but they didn't end up playing it at that Paris show.

I'd choose coma or estranged. I would also love to hear yesterdays at some point.

I would choose Estranged. Definitely the best. ;) Or SOD or TIL (if these ones wouldn't be already on the setlist, as usual, in this tour)
So if he’s somewhere near me
I hope to God he hears me
There’s no one else could ever make me feel
I’m so alive
I’ve searched the universe and found myself within Axl's eyes.

Locomotive was played a few times in 92.

Personally, if he's going to add a song, I'd like it to be one he hasn't played live before - Don't Damn Me

From CD, Shacklers. (i prefer Catcher or TWAT etc... but the former is less difficult to sing, hence why it has been played more).

Otherwise Estranged, every day of the week!

It's interesting that this song isn't on the setlist because they used to play it a lot back in the day.  It was very popular.

Well obviously a completely new track would be cool! Something really rocking like.. I don't know... the "Checkmate" -song. I would really like to hear TWAT and Prostitute more often. But the setlist is already a little too ballady for my taste. I'm actually pretty happy with the current setlist now that ITW has been replaced with TIL. Just add one more rocker to the mix and the setlist is pretty perfect, like Shackler's Revenge, Scraped or Don't Damn Me.

Other than the obvious answer of something new, I'd have to choose something off of Use Your Illusion. Anything really, it's your choice Axl!! Estranged for sure, but since that one gets repeated a lot, I'll say Breakdown or Bad Apples.
