    The traffic was a legitimate issue at the 8:00pm start time - it's why the promoter pushed it to 8:15. But by 8.30 the place was well and truly full, in the pit where I was there were "come on Axl" chants...and the band still didn't come on until 9.

    There's no way it can have taken them an hour to drive between the hotel where the band stayed and the venue even with that traffic. So it seems for whatever reason they didn't leave on time. Could have been a tantrum over lack of a police escort, or perhaps they wanted an escort to make up for lost time just because their day was running late. who knows. Either way we missed coma which was a shame.

    They were refused police escort but it did take them an hour to get there as it was Valentines Day & the city is packed that night. Together with streets closed off for the concert they couldn't get through either. Axl wanted to walk from the car which might be 10-15 mins but his security said no. I think he would have been ok to do it as the fans were all at the show & he probably wouldn't be recognised or bump into anyone walking down the blocked off road. They could have gotten him there so much earlier & let management go in the car.

    Had a great show...the best for me this year! The energy was intense and many of the fans were fun to chat with. I got to go with some of my best friends as well so that was nice...I danced my butt off so it was a good work out 😃

    i tossed a thong up there during Mr.B, Axl picked it up, smiled, twirled it around and hung it in the drum set. If anyone has vid/pic of that please share 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    to all the fellow gunners out there; enjoy the rest of the shows and I'll see ya in the fall 🤓

     

    Check youtube, I just saw it. A black object at the end of Mr Brownstone.

    Angus was definitely there tonight. Thought it was from last night too Bc the connection was so good but then Axl sounded worse and Slash had on a black shirt tonight instead of the white one he wore last night. Axl came out without the jacket but yes Angus definitely was there for night 2

    To be fair Axl went full Mickey. We cant and should never excuse that unless they play CITR. 

    Ok thanks for that. The stream cut off so I missed him tonight. Good having both on stage.

    Axl Kicked ass vocally ... a few things i thinks he needs to change as a frontman imo  for ac/dc though .  1)  loose the layered  look    2) stop the dancing ac/dc is not a disco

    I agree with him losing the layered look altogether, it's very unflattering. Yet the best thing is he got rid of the moustache, the sunglasses & the hats which is far more important. We went through a long stage where that's all we saw & never got to see his face, as long as he's bareheaded & clean shaven I'll cope with the layers. He did an amazing job & obviously he and Angus have formed a great friendship which is lovely to see.

    Good on you Axl, you have done yourself proud & giving Angus the stage most of the time while staying back in the shadows showed a lot of respect. The Young family are a large family so hopefully they'll continue on with the band & try to ignore the "hired hands" comments that have been thrown around by GNR fans for years.

  5. @ZoSoRose I found the thread, absolutely fucking fantastic that you met & had a photo taken with Axl (with your arm around him too). Who would choose an autograph over a photo, it's a great photo too. You deserve to have met Axl & you know why I say that, so happy for you.

    It's made my day, in 156 days from now I will be heading towards my 2nd GNR concert. :headbang:

    Thanks for sharing the photos.

    Heyy!

    Going to see them in OZ?

    No I thought I'd stay home & watch it on periscope instead. :P

     

     

    YEEEEEESSSSS there's 11 of us going. Redhead74 and I will be at the front standing and the other 9 will be a little bit further back. Three people have already told us they expect a repeat performance of throwing underwear on stage but I thought we'd crowd surf to the stage & back this time. Just for something different. :lol:
