I only drop in to mygnr once a year, these days…but I was at last nights show and THANKGAWD I bought cheap, grandstand seats - I was protected from the rain, the entire show.
I will say, I had a great view of everyone exposed to the elements and the crowd was totally into Guns, despite the discomfort. Axl I felt, in particular, tried extra hard to overcome the crowd’s suffering and the audience appreciated him, for that. “Y’all are some loud motherfuckers!” He said, at one point.
The best and funniest reference to the rain came midway through the set, when Axl said “And now!…the moment you’ve all been waiting for - Duff McKagan on vocals!”…Axl knew the crowd was dying to get out of the rain, and introducing Duff’s Stooges song, was his invitation for the crowd to take cover.
