No the place was close to empty maybe 5000 people the place holds 16,000 Axl got a reality check or his feelings hurt because of the poor crowd response and attendance cut the set short and screwed the ones of us who went on a tuesday night for a show that started at midnight not to mention Halloween and having kids to trick or treat with.
What a dissapointment I expected to hear IRS and it did not get played Not sure I would pay to see them again the guitar solos were lame and far too often. I am gonna say it made me miss Slash I went open minded to the new players Out ta get me was my favorite part of the show. It was good to see Axl but they as a band were more like a circus act left a lot to be desired maybe he needs another 6-7 years by then absolutely no one will give a shit including me

Ouch.

That sucks to read. Maybe it's the 2am whisky talking. Maybe it's the fact that I'm listening to Patience drunk.

I really wish Axl could pull it together and get this band back on track. There was a time when they rocked the whole world. Now they can't even hold a half-capacity crowd through an encore of Paradise City - possibly the greatest show closer ever.

I hate this shitty, misearable world. This confirms everything I felt and overheard on the long, slow walk out of Inalnd Invasion.

It's hard to imagine Axl falling farther than 2k2. But maybe that's what he needs.

Sorry for the su-par show, dude. You're not alone in your disappointment.

Come on, it was Jacksonville after all...

Without promotion.

Sounds as though they didn't get a brilliant concert. Two new songs, the usual set of guitar solos and only one song for the encore. That's no way to treat a crowd who showed up despite it being rescheduled.

Maybe they should re-name it Limpbizkitville?

No Promotion They Gave tickets away for free and could not fill it up. Eric Clapton sold out without any promotion so you cant blame promotion I think the interest was low they have really given us no new stuff and people were not into the axl rose show. My rant last night was a little harsh but I was dissapointed I thought the guitar solos just drug out the show. Axl sounded great but no energy in the place Ive seen them before(og lineup) with lots of energy maybe the crowds here suck maybe I should move south at least when Queen came through with Paul Rodgers the place was jumping with a small crowd due to lack of interest with no Freddie but the show rocked maybe after seeing Brian May play live all others pale in comparison. Oh about the Limpbizkitville remark I would not go see Limp Bizkit if they were in my backyard.
