Son Of A Gun

Deep throat?

Isn't South America pretty much the only place left to tour with no album?

Don't forget this :xmasssanta:

In the middle east and they're gonna have to wear traditional outfits

Let's go multiple choice. Where will this band tour next after Japan:

A. Wherever they can grab cash?

B. Wherever they can grab cash?

C. Wherever they can grab cash?

D. Wherever they can grab cash?

I guess time will tell what will happen. And that could be anything. Most important thing though as you said...I had a great time last night. :xmasssanta:

Actually Gunzen I hate to disappoint you, while I wrote just the concert review...I have to concede as I did before that no matter how good this band is...it just isn't Gn'R to me and every single person out there at the show thought so too. It's a good band as you said it, but no matter how good they are they just don't have that feel to the songs that the songs need (At least the Gn'R songs). They 're right at home with their own songs, but not with Gn'R's. In honest opinion I am hoping for a reunion to happen sometime soon but will enjoy whatever these guys put out in the mean time. Good that at least in the meantime I saw this band.

I was actually one of those who was oblivious to the fact that my ticket was for all the 3 shows so when I arrived and found out I was blown away by the thought. My friend John and I kept our very front spots in the mosh pit the entire night, shit went crazy. Rose Tattoo came out and although I've never seen or heard them before I was just mouth gaping at how an ageing man like Angry Anderson can just pull that off.

After that came on Sebastian and we went nuts through a number of hits like Slave To The Grind, Big Guns, Piece Of Me, Here I Am and so on... That man is just insane about his passion for rockin' and the energy that comes from this motor-voiced die-hard rocker, who even prompted us all to take out our phone to bootleg his shows....if a man wants free publicity I say why not :xmasssanta: . Surprisingly the lights for Gn'R went down much earlier than expected, I remember a fellow (god he smelled like shit ) right beside me who was about to knock me out with his putrid stink, kept saying it'll be another 2 hours. As we waited the crowd got tighter and tighter.

Then at 11:40PM...or so said my watch, lights went down and that theme came up,as I saw Robin (Jesus I like to call him) behind stage and then he put on his 'Jungle teaser. Crowd just went nuts, then in the dark we saw Axl walk up to the front stage, wearing his new-traditional jeans and italian boots, wearing a buttoned long sleeve chinese writing shirt and screamed out the words "Do you know where the fuck you aaaaaaaaare" As they launched into the song, pyros went off and the crowd went fucking nuts. I was surprised to find Axl was in such a good shape and still lookin' gooood and with such energy, his ear shrieking raspy screams ecchoed like a jagged ripping noise throughout the entire arena. He was smiling throughout the evening. He still looks a dangerous badass rocker and while also like a really nice guy, he also looksed ready to rip someone if he needed to. As they next hit the numbers 'Easy, 'Brownstone everybody grooved out and really sung with this man.

Live And Let Die came along and again crowd went nuts. Robin was amazingly well received by the crowd during his solos and I joked here and there saying Jesus has returned as a rocker or something. Again the crowd went crazy on Sweet Child O' Mine. All relaxed was the next mood to follow as they played Knockin' On Heaven's Door in almost the old-school style version in some parts, I remember us all with our hands in the air waving left to right like some huge party and indeed it was.

My favourite part of the show then came along...time for some new music and on came Better and gave me a bit more of a personal momentum and to all those who knew the lyrics as we sang it with the band. This was where the band really was at home playing their own stuff, I was thinking every time that a new song is played this record needs a quick release already so people can really rock to this. During halfway throughout better during the first solo when Frank did that heavy drum bit where he thumps it the crowd just went up and down headbanging and really was into this at this point and Axl's screams could almost blow out one's hearing during that cream verse in Better. New stuff continued and piano was drawn out, Dizzy did his thing and people just mouthgaped and The Blues was played. Rasp was present at its full again in this song, and everybody was just blown away as Axl slid up on the piano and stood up it was just so iconic.

And so continues the show and my story on it....frank hit a few cymbals (I'm probably wrong) or whatever they are and then did the opening drums of You Could Be Mine and we went insane. Asking on this forum for the song to be changed slightly really did pay out. That thunderous drumming sound by frank and the whails and rhythm and all just oozing out of the players' guitars just ripped through the song and my favourite bit came on when Frank hits with both his hands and foot and the explosion came on. We were all so loud we could barely hear Axl who sang quite well. Frank's drum sound judging by this song was just amazing and I loved his feel at how he interprets the songs, definitely more so than Brain. Out Ta Get me was received as no-lesser by the crowd. I was kinda thinking "Are we at a huge party here or a rock concert"

November Rain and allowed for some feel of brotherhood among all the fans as a lot of us had arms over each other's shoulders and sang and looked at each other trying to feed off the other's energy and all just clicked in. Fireworks were amazin and this song, even though I usually despise it, was a very special time during the concert. Nice little band jam followed.

The cymbals hit and on came IRS, which was played so energetically as all others were. Again a chance for all us people who know lyrics to show it off to those who didn't that we get to really rock in reward for our learning the lyrics and feels of the song. Axl's voice was quite rangy in this song from either sounding a bit silly with the wail to just about splitting all that hears with his shrieking screams and it's one of the much better songs of the night.

A series of solos followed allowing once again some time for brotherhood of rock as we all sang the Australian anthem and Don't Cry. Shit I'm having to look at the setlist and concert updates to remember what I am writing Things picked up again as Sebastian came on and My Michelle blew away the crowd, as he and Axl shared parts as well as singing parts of the song together. We all had a good laugh when Axl noted that they 've been going so smoothly throughout the night but are supposed to fuck things up. Another humorous remark which I can't remember when it was shown but earlier in the show some girl sent a huge sign asking Axl if she can be his bitch for the night...very lovely I must say Patience again allowed for some relaxation.

Nightrain exploded out of nowhere, which was again one of my favourites. The screens really did their jobs displaying the Bumblefoot-Robin-Frank trio with clips switching from player to player among these 3 during the song and the solos. People mouthgaped at Bumblefoot's guitaring abilities. When the song ended, people were looking at each other wondering what will be, saying at least one more as Paradise City, but more surprises were to come. Axl's good friend Angry Anderson came on and although I don't even know this song...wish I did , Axl's voice was at the very pinnacle in this song, nothing but pure rasp as I heard it. Angry anderson was right at home with this song and was as Amazing as Axl.

Madagascar Madagascar Madagascar....what can I say about this. This was more for the ladies I see, a few very nice handsome girls near me were all really into this song, I never thought much of this song but the performance was pretty tight on it and nonetheless enjoyable.

Paradise City started and the crowd's energy just built up again, as we started jumping up and down like a bunch of playful energetic kids but who can blame us. Fireworks really built up the intense energy once again. As the badass song rolled through, came the fast long part and paper leafs were flyin everywhere I could barely see, as this huge party was coming to a conclusion, and Axl screamed out Sydney Australia good fuckin' night and closed off. Later he came on just to get a bit friendly again with us and said "Aussie aussie aussie" to which we responded "Oy oy oy" and so on.

We 're gettin past the concert now but the fun didn't stop there, my friend John and I had leaf fights as we picked large bundles of it and were throwing it, and the other people had a bit of a fuck around. As we set home on the train some funny hooligans started joking in our carriage and made a "Pole Dancing" competition Which I was the first to take to fuck around a bit for the night and then my friend took a turn and destroyed my act to pieces Then all the fun dispersed and everybody went home after we got off at the last station. Phew, what a night, what a night.

Although i agree with the title "No Guns Just Rose" i must not listen to this abominal crap sound that this band calls music It's gonna put me off my rocking mood for today's show

Hahaha! Enjoy the show man!!!! And while you're at it, drink a beer for me too.

I might not have one but if ya want I'll make sure Axl has a beer

Woooo my mate just got me in the mood again...this concert on 6/23 was gettin a boring thing to look to till today...so I saw my good friend John and he re-got me into wearin my rock stuff and here i am rippin up my flare sky blue jeans, pullin out my denim jacket, band tshirt, and an overly loose army coloured thick fishnet shirt (much like axls in the day), and my bandana, all ready to go. sure i may not think this is gnr but...fuck it they can rock sure as hell and thats wat im here for

Christian...this proves it wrong. Axl's band aren't the best Gn'R cover band

Axl chose poorly

It was probably the timing of the beer that caught him by surprise.

I can vision it: "Do you know where the fu...splash!"

I'd pay to see that on Youtube, no offence!!!

Yeah... getting a beer thrown at you while you're doing your job. That's really funny...

Fucking idiots...

No dude it's more like....getting a beer thrown at your head for keeping your customers waiting for 2 hours.

.

If it was a plastic cup, which I'm 99% sure of, you're absolutely right, Son. How many times us R&R fans get a beer thrown over us while standing in the crowd at a rock festival. He should laugh it off, or turn it into a good joke.

Yeah dude, Axl's really gonna do that ?

Bringbackadler I know I've said this before but I LOVE your signature...so very true :xmasssanta:

i think axl shud stop acting like a pussy and take it like a man...he came on late and pissed off a lot of fans, so he got a beer to the head, take it like a man axl stop being a whiney lil wussy bitch...no offence.

Thanks to the lame-ass security, Axl will stop in the middle of rocket queen and go home

...Advice to rioters...should there be a riot...head for the stage and steal the soundboard tapes rock1 :xmasssanta:

Axl got thrown a beer to the head as he started jungle, because people apparently we're fed up waiting for 2 hours.

"Do you know where the fu...blurp gulf splash..."

This probably means war!!! Axl VS. Brisbane.....let the ranting begin

A few months down the track the man will be sayin "So some banana-bending asshole, decided that he could take the situation into his hands...and throw a fuckin' beer bottle at my head, and...........(speechless)....*sigh*, yeah"

Racer X

Skid Row (Original)

Guns N' Roses (Axl, Slash, Izzy, Duff, Matt)

Doesn't really matter what you wear. You're going to see a rock show, not at a mannequin festival. For all I know...I could wear my sky blue flare jeans, casual rockish colorado shoes and Judas Priest T-Shirt with an army cap....or I could even just wear my nice casual jeans, blue casual shoes and a nice dark brown dark blue medium orange creamy white striped jumper :xmasssanta: It really doesn't matter, I'll just wear what my mood tells me that one night.

Judas Priest

Amazing singer with a razor sharp voice ready to inflict damage...two fast-as-hell dualing lead guitarists, a classic heavy metal bassist, and my favourite of all....the formiddable double kickin' drummer from hell...Scott Travis rock1

This band is just fucking amazing. They laid down the classics throughout later 70s and earlier 80s, and in 1990 brought a new and improved lethal weapon Scott to the group to enhance their beast of heavy metal, and launched the Painkiller. Although they broke up in 1992 they had managed to make 11 albums prior to this, and temporarily closed off this beast concluding with their ever definitive Painkiller, and came back together 11 years later (excluding Ripper years), made a successful reunion tour, followed by an amazing first post-reunion album Angel Of Retribution...with undoubtedly my favourite 'Priest song "Judas Rising", redefining Judas Priest once again, claiming worldwide success in their tour...and yet...ready once again to soon hit us with another wave of metal this year, a double disc 18 song album about Nostradamus. What a band....I must say what a truly great talented band rock1

umm it hasn't been 6 years

GNR did some shows in 2001 and then toured through 2002

and then they started touring again in 2006 and he has just started toured in 2007

so all together it would be like 2 years and a month or 2 altogether

I don't know how you work out your maths

yeah i mistook that one, but still, they toured quite a long time with no album. i wonder how long the tour is meant to last while the album is out.

So when CD 's released...how long are they supposed to tour? Considering they've toured 6 years without it, think would they do a quick tour? A long tour?

Can a refund be obtained if I go to the Sydney show and right up at the very beginning of the concert like end of Welcome To The Jungle

or something if I go to the ticketek and say "Look, I wasn't informed it would be totally new musicians, what I saw / heard on advertisements was pictures of Slash, Duff, Matt/Steven and not these new guys and I was misinformed, could I please get my money back?", would they refund me?

Wildest Dreams, Powerslave and Die With Your Boots on would be good too rock1
