I was at both nights. GNR was great - with Axl, I’ve come to “adjust” my expectations for his vocals. You’re gonna get some great moments and some tough ones. Hadn’t seen them since ‘21, so the setlist was a treat. Getting to see Pretty Tied Up, Reckless Live, Anything Goes, etc. was great. Surprisingly, Axl sounded incredible on the bridge in Better. One of the best vocal moments. Also, he really sounded great on Paradise City (which had been cringey on prior tours). GNR came out just before 10 and played till 1-I do think they would have gone longer absent the curfew.
ACDC was great too. Agreed that Brian sounded tough at times (especially You Shook Me All Night Long). This whole weekend, I see more AC/DC shirts than any other band-it really does feel like it’s their festival. We were surprised that the curfew was 12 last night. The lady at one of the bars told us they were told by the venue that they had to shut it down with little notice. Not sure if the curfew dictated the 2ish hour length of ACDC’s set or vice versa.
Can’t wait for tonight.
