That’s my favorite Iggy album.  Everyone talks up Raw Power but I think Fun House is way better 

Agreed, I like Raw Power quite a bit, but like the first two much more.

i can't hear the fucking guitars

what is wrong with these people? why they wouldn't stop talking. You are there to hear the fucking music STFU

If they were actually there for a real concert experience, they wouldn't be on their phones in the first place. Be happy with what we're getting.

I'd say the enterprise center far more likely than the dome 

I would prefer an arena, but It's not big enough, and they'd have to contend with the hockey schedule. The dome is empty.

Are they going to move it to the dome? There's no way they can do an outside show in November.

Well the tour wraps up October 16th so there's still time to reschedule I'd say by the end of October. Might be a bit chilly out but it can be done

That's about the only time they can do it. I remember seeing Pearl Jam at Alpine Valley in October of 2000 and it was about 20 degrees out. It was miserable, but a very memorable show. I just hope the rescheduled date is on a weekend. Either way, come Sunday...Go Bears! 

Did they fill the arena in Lexington?

have we got an offical announcement or is it via somewhere else?

I read it on a local StL news site, but evidently emails have been going out to ticket holders. I was just going to buy them at the gate tomorrow to save on fees since they were almost $100 for three tix on the website. 

Fuck, I'm glad I didn't book any rooms. I was really looking forward to a weekend away for that show. 

St. Louis postponed 

Crestfallen is a really good song. Axl would've been fantastic singing that song.

Cause it's their home turf 

They've played LA a ton since 2016, and had to downgrade to a smaller stadium two years ago. It's a good idea to skip it this time around. People can take the drive to San Diego if they want to see them.

It's getting worse.  Please don't cancel St Louis, shit.

Shit, I just bought tix for that show.

I have no self control and just ordered a Boston litho on eBay 

I ended up having to do the same for the Wrigley litho.

He said something about a full reboot next year or something like that.

I thought so...doesn't make sense for a band that's going on hiatus for 5 years. 

Didn't the stage manager say that they're putting together an all new stage/show or something when he said a new song is coming any day to the VIP crowd?

I've never seen one man get sick as often as I have Axl Rose.

The man hasn't been home since late May. It's bound to happen.

Damn, that crowd is loud. I miss seeing these guys in arenas. 

Did anyone get an extra litho they'd be willing to sell/trade? The lady in front of me got the last one at the Gallagher Way stand and there were none inside. It's not a great design, but I have one from all 26 shows we've seen since Slash and Duff came back before yesterday, and Chicago is my hometown show. 

Hotter than fuck but this show is better than Boston so far

Isn't it the 23rd now in the US? Show is tomorrow? 

It's tomorrow 

I was quite impressed with Axl's vocals at that show. It's never going to be perfect, but it was good. The normal struggle songs were there, but he had quite a few highlights. One of the guys with us mentioned a few times throughout the night that he didn't think Axl could hit half the notes he did. Being at the show is certainly a lot different than watching clips on YouTube, but I'm guessing the large group of haters who constantly spew that Axl can't sing anything anymore would at least partially change their minds if they were there live.

Just got back. Some random thoughts:

The stage show looked trimmed down. Back to basics, no pyro, lights, etc. 

The band was very tight.

Axl looked like he was having a great time.

The rain kind of sucked, but it did give a good vibe.

The Pretenders were awesome. One of the best opening bands I've ever seen.

I agree about the Pretenders. I haven't seen them in years, and really liked their set. 

Fantastic show! I've been to 600+ concerts and have never been soaked like that. It was an unreal rain. The 100 degree heat on Thursday will make up for that. I can't wait for that one after tonight.
