Last night was my 6th time seeing Guns and the 3rd since the reunion in 2016.
Here is my honest review of last night. The place was full and probably sold out, there were a lot of casual fans in attendance.
The crowd were quite quiet for the first 4 or 5 songs (hence Axls golf clap quote), the crowd picked up once Jungle was played and they stayed loud for a while.
Duff's solo went down well as did Absurd and other songs around this point. The 2nd part of Rocket Queen was enjoyed by all.
The slash solo was brilliant and the crowd agreed with this, scom probably got the biggest cheer of the night and November Rain which followed was not far behind this.
Axl and the band had the crowd in the palm of their hands by this point but they f***ed up here, Wichita Lineman killed the atmosphere which had been created and the Acdc cover did not help either (don't cry and another guns song should have been played instead).
Come the encore a lot of fans were starting to leave, this was not due to the band, this was due to the sh*t public transport system in Scotland (another thing we have the useless nationalist government to thank).
Two of the last three songs went down well (we can guess which song didn't).
I would say most if not all went away happy after 3 good hours.
Conclusion
The band sounded amazing, Fortus is a really good guitar player but most of the crowd would agree that slash was the star of the show.
I have never posted on here about Axls voice but here is my opinion, for 80 minutes it was brilliant but got slightly weaker as the show went on.
Of the 3 shows I attended (night 2 Olympic stadium, donnington and last night) this was the best that axl and the band sounded.
I enjoyed last night but I still think there has to be room for a song like Don't Cry.
