  1. While I was waiting for GNR to take the stage I asked an event coordinator if he knew what was taking so long. He told me that Axl wouldn’t take the stage till he saw a physiotherapist. Hence the long wait, I know other shows had long waits but I believe Toronto show was started the latest on the tour. Makes sense since in his apology that night he mentioned that he was jumping of shit the night before, likely hurt himself. Maybe that explains the wheelchair.

  2. Bad songs by Good Bands? November Rain is awesome, and even the mainstream pretty much has an orgasm every time they hear it...

    In hindsight, it's definitely a classic, but when it came out, my friends and I all thought: "WTF? GN'R has gone gay?"

    a lot of people outside the fanbase see November Rain as GnR's shark jump.

    Yup.

    Totally disagree with the list thing...that being said like John here I remember listening to NR and was WTF is that...what happen to the band that wrote AFD...but I gave the song a chance then it grew on me...then it started getting annoying and really cheesy...once it hit main stream media it was over for me and fast become least liked tune...great solo and outro but that’s about it for me...mind you seeing it live is a different story.. saw it last week in Toronto and was presently surprised...but ya I don’t think I would every listen to it on my ipod.

  3. Great review Stephanie78. I wish I went. I saw them in Toronto and was really tempted go to the Ottawa show as well, but wife stopped me. Dam woman!

    Anyways I found this site that gives stats on what songs they have played so far on this tour. I though it was interesting so I thought I would share it with you all. Im hoping its accurate.

  4. wow !! My Michelle with Bach !! How great ! :D

    For real............. :( I'm so jealous....why not in Toronto...why!!!!!!!!!!!

    But I am happy for the ppl in QC what a treat

    I still say Toronto was the best show. We got CITR dedicated to JD Sallinger. Can't beat that. And Axl said sorry to us TWICE!!!

    True CITR was sweet! Have they played that anywhere else can't remember.

  5. This is NOT topic Axl needs to grow up a bit. He should print show starts at 11 PM if that is when he goes on. Let's see how many people buy tickets with upfront advertising. If Axl wants to act like a club band that is where he should play. "

    What if Axl or DJ drop in to read about this show, and yes we know they do. No one wants the tour to end over some dumbass. nuff said.

    If Axl cancelled a tour because of a message board then he would be certifiably insane. If you are seriously concerned about what Axl thinks then you obviously don't listen to the lyrics written by him - "vicarious existence is a f'ing waste of time"

    Axl if you are reading this - STOP BEING A RETARD AND START THE SHOW ON TIME!!! You are performing at a high level, the band is performing at a high level, and the album Chinese Democracy sounds great live. So Dear Axl, stop going out of your way to sabotage your own success but more importantly stop treating people who buy your ticket expecting it start at a decent time like dirt. It is just plain rude.

    Please do not use the word retard on this board, this aint the teen drop in centre...

    Word police. Perhaps a progressive? I wonder if the energy is starting to sap out of the arena at this point as people who have work on Tuesday start thinking about getting home rather than the great show. Pity.

    LOL! Sorry that is so funny...man you are really fishing eh?

  6. ..

    I sure am they are giving the crowds killer shows, even if the press dont like it,..

    I have no idea why you keep babbling about the press. GNR has gotten great reviews from the press so far on this tour.

    In fact, the only negative comments I've read were about the late start - and that's a legitimate complaint. Geesh.

    that and that its not the original band...the reviews always try to bitch about that, then oddly enough they compliment the band throughout the rest of the review. Funny shit I think.It's like Guns N Roses is their "guilty pleasure" lol

    People who go to the show and then write bad reviews because it's not the original band piss me off.

    It's like the people who write bad reviews because Britney Spears doesn't sing live. If a show has been the same way for over a decade, it's not going to magically change the one night you're there.

    Britney Spears :shocked: why the hell is Britney Spears in a GNR forum. Isn't there a rule against that. :scared:

  7. So I was reading the Ottawa Citizen review. It's your standard show started late jokes and this isn't the real GNR bullshit. At the end of the review there are blog postings that he wrote while at the show . I was reading some and I thought I would share a quote from one of his blog posts. It just goes to show what a joke all these apparent "critics" are:

    "Richard Fortus, meanwile, has yet anther new shirt, and he's taken off the Slash-like crumpled hat he was wearing."

    Clearly this is DJ he is talking about. The freaking guy doesn’t even know who the members of the band are and he is writing a review. What an asshat!

    Here is the review if anyone wants to read the trash.

    Ottawa Review

    Oh my god... Please... It's so annoying when the person writing a review (which often isn't even a review about the show, but about everything else) can't get the names right. Right name is rule #1. I read a review where they were listing up all the band members. Or were they? If so, they doesn't count Chris Pitman in the band ;).......................

    Yes, it´s really annoying they don´t take the time to see who is in the band ...

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

    I can take it I'm reading the Ottawa Sun review:

    "Guitarist Fortus soloed a mashup of "Peter Gunn" and a James Bond theme -- I think -- before the band returned to "Chinese Democracy" with "Sorry", "If the World" and "Prostitute"."

    WTF when did they play prostitute. What the hell are these people watching? It sucks because some old school gun fans that have lost touch with the band use these reviews to see what the band’s up to. No wonder Axl hates these parasites.

  9. You sir are a PUSSY!

    Agreed, ever since the start of the Canadian leg there has been nothing but whinging bitching little shits popping up everywhere.

    Are you saying the author of the review is a Pussy? If so I totally agree. This guy is way of the mark. I went to the show and I loved it. My voice is still hoarse. But if you’re attacking me for posting the review I am confused. I thought this would be the appropriate forum to post reviews of the concert so other can see what the media is posting about GNR. I have seen others do the same for other reviews out there.
