Love Coma!

All we need is just a little... periscope...

Argh... I'm supposed to be working on my final paper for university (deadline on Tuesday), but I keep on peeking here. This looks like a concert that's not to be missed!

I'll admit it. With all the build-up to this, I held a little bit of hope in my heart for a new single. I figured a new album would be too much, as they've been busy touring, but one song... Guess I still operate under the delusion that despite tours being where the money is, musicians will want to make music.

Oh well...

Ooooh Axl is in fine form today!

I'm more of a Women's Thread lurker than a poster, but I am still joining in...

Happy Birthday, Axl! Hope you have a fabulous day and an excellent year ahead. Somehow, I think that'll happen.

I wish he rant more. He never rant again now  or singing some other random songs before doing the actual setlist.

Guess it's good in some ways. He must be in a happier place. Some of his old rants were pretty good, though!

Eh, I am enjoying it. Now if he could just do a 31+ second rant I'd be even happier. I have points to score.

Coma!

Don't think he's sounding too bad at all. Enjoying this.

Morning everyone! Bit late joining in, but having Guns to wake up to is awesome. Thanks for the links!

Awesome contest, thank you!

Last time they stopped by (2012) I paid £100 for two good seats (first block, second row from the front), and that was including fees. So yeah, it's quite a price hike. I know Slash and Duff are back, but still! And the timing is rather inconvenient - I have Christmas presents to buy. So, I'm holding out for Manchester. Least that would save me extra travel costs and the cost of a hotel. Risky, of course, as they might not travel up north, but for now I am sitting tight.

I'm another one holding out for Manchester. London's too far away for me and I wouldn't even know how to get around in it. If it's not to be, I guess I will keep my fingers crossed for 2018.

It's amazing how excited people get to find out that they're going to die.

They're also very excited when Axl sings he never really wanted to live, during Coma. Lots of cheers then.

The atmosphere in the stadium must have been really electric... I checked out a periscope and had a powercut.

Wow, 5.50 for bottled soda? They sure know how to rip off a captive audience!

Great concert. Thanks for the company and the fun, everyone! Night night.

I'm still waiting for Think About You. One day... one day...

I figured people say Axel or Axle because they're not typing but talking. So the phone machine does that.

Ah okay! That could be an explanation!

Thank you!

I saw someone ask, "Is Axl back?" And then "I thought he and Slash had a fall-out." Where have they been this last year or so? And Axl back? It's his band!

Someone said that November Rain was "the best cover of this song I've heard". I was like ???? It's THEIR song lol

Omg, these comments on periscope...

One said "Is he lip-synching?" (during Coma). Then "what song is this?"

Did I just hear RonnyG say that Izzy is here?!!

Aye, I heard the same thing!
