There set time is 7.20 - 10.50 the longest set in Download history. Hope they play that long. Rio set was 3hrs 30...so along those lines.

The arena used to have a slope & the stage was built at the bottom. It had rained & the grass was wet & slippery there were crowd surges when Guns started playing people lost there footing resulting in 2 guys losing their lives.I didn't find out until the following day when I got home about the 2 guys the 1989 Donington was cancelled as new safety measures were brought in the slope was levelled off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But PC can overall sound decent with some '87 highlights time to time. I would say there's Mickey 85% of SCOM, but only 30% on PC. Wonder what it would sound like if they put PC earlier in the set list... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should really improve on SCOM as it is what many fans, even casuals enjoy. I would rather them remove 5 songs from their setlist and Axl perform a killer SCOM.

IncitingChaos Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Excited for today! I enjoy when GNR play these festivals just to see how the crowd reacts to em. There’s probably going to be a good pop when BHS starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing about Sweet Child is that it is going to go over great no matter how he sounds because the crowd knows all the words and is always singing a long.. But on a pro shot it will be awful unless they really doctor his vocals.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
