Lads,

I went to this concert, in fact flew over from New Zealand to for the festival! Big def Leppard and Whitesnake fan as well, not to mention motorhead, korn, deftones and alice in chains who aren't at all bad themselves.

Anyway GNR i've waited my whole life to see these guys and it was worth the wait. The enw guitarists, were outstanding, put a on a good show and all three of them have completely different styles. In my opinion a way better look for the band than buckethead, i just thought his whole get-up (playing ability aside) looked stupid. Anyway they were gold, adn Axl voice at this performence was easily aS GOOD AS ITS EVER BEEN. hE NAILED ALL THE NOTES, ALL THE SONGS ADN KEPT THE CROWD ENTERTAINED. Bloody caps lock. from memory they played the following songs,

Welcome to the jungle (first)
mr brownstone
nighttrain
out to get me
it's so easy
sweet child of mine
my michelle (with sebastian bach from the old Skid Row that wa sa highlight)
rocket queen (one of my favourites)
november rain
don't cry (guitar only)
live and let die
you could be mine
estranged
4 or 5 new tracks
paradise city (encore performance)

Wa a hugeset, lasted about 2.5 hours!! Dizzy Reed back on keyboards was also another bnig highlight, Axl announced that he was back and this was only his second appearance. But what was real awesome was when he announced a friend, a 'partner in crime' was gonna help him sing the next song, and Sebastian Bach came out was awesome. I love the old Skid Row (beofre sebastian bach left) so as if i wasn't excited enough already then that was just takin it to the next level.

Me and two of my mates were at the very front of the second section (i think the first section must have either been a 'gold area'where you paid extra, or else it was first 1000 in got into the front zone. But we were still only 15-20 from the front so had awesome view, acoustics were awesome lights etc. I've spent most of my time at concerts up front. Was dead front cente for velvet revolver, dead front centre for Motely crue and heaps of local bands in NZ and you can't hear the words as well. However its awesome being up close, high fived Duff at Matt Sorum at velvet revolver then Matt gave me one of his drumsticks (i kid you not). I year later was at motely crue and caught one of Tommy Lee's drumsticks, so am on a good run!!! Axl biffed his mike into the crowd adn that reached as far as us but was about 20 m to the left, that would've been good!!

Anyway all up GNR were farkin amazing. Also add the Def LEpp sounded as good as ever, and of course Davide Coverdale was sounding as brilliant as ever for Whitesnake. Have a million phots amy try adn post some if i get round to it.

We went to Holywood after the 3rd night of the festival (def lepp and whitesnake) but line was a bit large and had 50 euro cover charge. which is NZ$100 so we bailed on that - couple of my chick mates scammed there way in and said it was pretty cool but noone of note in there apart from some rich greesy italians, classic.
