Axl knocks one of slashs Marshall heads on the ground 2:51 

 

I would love to have some kind of video log of all casualties caused by Axl's mic stand toss.

A bit bruised and battered, but what a great and memorable show again.

Same, but what a show!!

Better than Werchter last year IMO. Better set list, so cool to have both DC and Patience, and Sorry.

Ask was great, they all gave everything they had. GMM is not an easy crowd and people around me were very enthusiastic. 

People kept on crowd surfing, including a small dude that got tossed and a guy in a wheelchair.

Wait, I'm confused - there are two stages next to each other?

Leaving the office in a couple of hours to go there!! I'm so excited I can't focus on the job.

During what song is that? I reacted on that when I watch some of the songs on YouTube. Slash was dangerously close that projectile..

Better, during the intro

Really firing a missile here!

I have no idea who this song really is about, but no matter how you sing it the power is more in those lyrics - there's a reflection that's really emotional and bittersweet but at the same time so wise and mature. There's love and loss and dissapointment but also the power of letting go and standing your ground, all that stuff goes really deep. It's one of those songs that can save your life and I think of Chinese this is one of those that will age best. I guess it takes a certain zone of confidence to pull it off but even though I wasn't there in person yesterday, from the videos and the look in his eyes I can tell he was on, regardless the delivery.

It's one of my favorites from Chinese as well, including Buckethead's beautiful solo. I always cringe at the 'kick your ass' lyric though.

Nah.

Half of Chinese is good if slash had input on it.

Slash's stuff is pretty hit and miss.

If it was half contraband half Chinese it would have been number 1.

This. Hopefully there's a plan to work on a new album with this 'best of both worlds' approach in mind.

Maybe you should let people have an opinion. Tone yourself down.

Oh but you guys can have an opinion - just like everyone else. I'm just merely stating that by now we have a pretty good understanding of what your opinion are, given the subtlety and all.

But yeah, this GNAIR thing is lame.

Come on I am not a hater. I love Axl.  I would love to pop on a bootleg from NITL tour and rock out while having a beer. It's Just that right now any non hardcore would be apalled and switch it to something else immediately 

You sure have a funny way to show your support. Maybe you should tone it down a bit.

that would make sense as "seven" and "madagascar" never seem to turn up on the same list but i thought it was all "cool hand luke" from civil war and martin luther king in that song. what parts are from the film seven ?

There are also parts of Braveheart and Mississipi Burning.

Gawd Damn Taylor crushes that song, those last 4 rolls wow. whoa! Even axl said "fucking great".....

I think he meant the whole experience was ‘fucking great’.

But yeah, the drums were good. And I like Frank’s work.

Can anybody understand what Dave said before Axl & Slash came out?

And how did he introduce them? 

+1, I'd like to know this as well.

Crowd's pretty pumped when Axl comes out! And without hat, even though from Meegan's IG you see it was not intentional, he had one on but it fell off.

Wouhouuuu! Very nice Yesterday, the best it has sounded in a long time!

Now he's nailing it, go figure. I hate Slash's solo though, still noodling without much melody.

Actually, the start of the chorus is not that bad - the problem is that there's no consistency throughout songs / concerts.

The verses are weak.

here's Better (lol at the thumbnail).

Tkx! Must be even bigger than that if you look at some of the videos!

I feel like people who are complaining about people complaining maybe should just ignore people they disagree with and stop trying to silence them. 

I just hide what I don't like, personally - I'm here for the information, it used to be vital during the Chinese-era. There were too many iterations of the band and Axl to align everyone nowadays.

Just enjoy the touring ride, for as long as it lasts - if you can. If they don't deliver what you desire, let it go. It ain't gonna change because it's not something they can work on. People age, bodies are changing.

Axl is literally on fire!

Do we have any pics of the massive crowd?

Jungle from the 1986 sessions is now available from iTunes.
