  1. The two guitarists did a solo duet based on the melody line of that James Blunt song "Beautiful"...and it was much more 'beautiful' than that piece of candy pop crap could ever be!!

    Just to clarify for those unfamiliar with the show, the solo is of "Beautiful" by Christina Aguilera.

  2. Just making it to the stage before Halloween came to a close, Guns n Roses provided many treats to those in attendance.

    Axl Rose appearing on stage in horns (possibly to acknowledge his persona) was enough to keep fans in the spirit even past the stroke of midnight.

    That sight alone, made the cheesy Wal-Mart bought inflatable décor thrown together forgivable. The man himself felt it was necessary to announce during the show that he was not responsible for picking it out.

    The technical and theatrical competence demonstrated on stage proved that this incarnation of GNR is as deserving as those previously accepted. And was it just me, or were their hints of Lynyrd Skynyrd's “Free Bird” thrown into the piano solo?

    The Gunners played a solid two hour set. All the standards were represented with a couple of new songs mixed in to justify the “Chinese Democracy Tour” label and merchandise being sold.

    Some may say that attendance was disappointing. The upper level was closed off and people were relocated to fill in the lower sections. But when considering what the rescheduling put people up against, I think those that could show up did in a big way.

    The show went off with out a hitch and there were no tricks to be played…unless you count the way many might feel when they get up in the morning and try to go about their daily routines.

  3. I was wondering why they'd go from FL to TN, then back to FL. Not the greatest planning in the world, but that shouldn't surprise anybody.

    well, the tn date was added after the florida shows were confirmed. now it looks like the official kickoff will be at Gaylord Focker Entertainment Center. real nice...we get em after they hit puerto rico. I am doubting this show will take place altogether now with the 3 other florida dates already scheduled.

  4. I have to say I would like to see it fill up a lot more for the show in Jacksonville. It is the kick off to the official tour, but the only tickets that have sold out are the cheapest (38.50) ones.

    The floor appeared to be mostly full, and suddenly now the floor tickets are coming up as general admission. The seating chart shows assigned floor seats still and they have been on sale for about 3 weeks. Not really sure how they will work that for people who bought them already expecting seats.

    Myself, I am sweating it out because I won tickets through a local radio station before they went on sale and they haven't called me yet to pick them up. They said they weren't in yet, so I am wondering how good the seats will be or if there will be some sort of mix up and I will get screwed.....

    Guess I shoulda just bought them for insurance, but didn't since I had supposedly secured a pair before they were available. Damn the stress, my eye is starting to twitch now heh heh

  5. I don't see it anywhere completely official (ticketmaster/artist websites) but the local radio station has updated the concert info with the same thing we are seeing with the other early dates.
