T-Minus Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Fair play to the guy for getting on stage and performing whilst sick. Cannot believe people are slating him for it... Something tells me the abuse would have been massive if he had of pulled out. The rumour mill would have been sent into overdrive too about possible reasons why they weren't playing. Respect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vloors Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Dude is always sick. Wonder whats really going on with Axl. Hope him a speedy recovery. Looks like he put his best effort in on this one under the circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrenchGNRfan Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 So some of you don't understand the fan's disappointment ? I'm wondering who are the real a-holes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a big difference between being disappointed and publicly shittin on someone even though he gave his best effort to give you the best experience he could 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering who are the real a-holes. I understand being disappointed, because they thought they would see a 3 to 4 hr show, but to get all over social media saying the things that some of these people are saying is ridiculous. The man was clearly sick and still came out and performed. The same people would have been complaining if they cancelled the show. He is a human, he was sick, and he chose to play for about the same amount of time that most bands play. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post adamsapple Posted November 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2018 I'm a little worried. Axl carried on a tour on crutches just so he could perform. In two bands, that is. If he calls in sick now he must be really sick not just a little unwell. Just listened to NR from tonight, he really must have felt beyond miserable. Let's just hope it's nothing too serious and he'll be better soon. Those champagne idiots picking on him now just make me angry. Guy showed up and performed the best he could for two hours, it's more than these fuckheads deserved. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RussTCB Posted November 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2018 I just plain have to laugh at people complaining that a 2 hour show is "short". Sick or not, a 2 hour rock concert is what most other bands aspire to. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killuridols Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 I can't understand why people here get so riled up for some anonymous Twitter comments.... Not that they are the official voice of everybody who attended. Although, probably many feel down because attending a show, paying tickets and all that jazz requires some effort. Ive not seen one second of this show but I wonder if the audience was fully aware of Axl being sick? Does everybody understand English over there? And I agree with the poster who said this probably could have been handled better, with a shorter setlist comprised of just the hits, no solo BS and an effective encore. Management fail. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of artists would of cancelled it. He at least gave it a shot.

Popular Post God of Thunder Posted November 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2018 I just returned from the show! Guns started really late at this show at around 9:20pm! My girlfriend already said that something must be wrong! After Jungle Axl said: “Now is the time for apologies, unfortunately I am quite sick today, I have been throwing up nonstop for the past 5 hours and been in the IV; This is a new experience for me, I never felt this way before but actually I kind of feel quite good (with the meds) Having said that we still decided not to cancel the show and deliver the best show we can do” All in all one could see that he was not in the best shape, but he tried! The voice was also quite decent! However the guitar solo were quite a stretch and during the set there were some discussions going on...At the end of the set he must have felt quite miserable as I don’t think they intended to close the show with NR! Axl apologized again for not delivering and they left! After there was some confusion in stage if the show really ended as people from the crew were going on and off the stage in a rather confused way. I think they really intended and tried to deliver the 3 hour set, but at some point he simply couldn’t do it anymore! In hindsight it would have been better to have planned and played a 100 minute greatest hits set; would have also been better for the F1 audience! But really nobody can blame them for not trying; the people got jungle, esstranged, SCOM and NR; if they would have put Knockin on Heavensdoor and PC instead of Wichita Linesman and Better this particular audience would have been perfectly happy! The concert goers were mostly ppl who watched the F1 race and got the concert for free.... 7 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
