Think we'll be treated to a good ol' fashioned rant if Axl watches a couple bottles of piss whizz past his head?

Better prepare yourselves because Donington's notorious for flying pies bottles

That guy wearing the Saxon shirt, gone!

Saxon were on the bill of the very first Monsters of Rock at Donington in 1980

yep. 20th august 1988 during the GNR set. i have the full audio and axl gave the crowd (that kept pushing forward) a good old lecture. iirc the band didn't find out the 2 men had died until after the show

I was there the place was jam packed 107,000 I think a record attendance for Doningtons Monsters of Rock . The arena used to have a slope & the stage was built at the bottom. It had rained & the grass was wet & slippery there were crowd surges when Guns started playing people lost there footing resulting in 2 guys losing their lives.I didn't find out until the following day when I got home about the 2 guys the 1989 Donington was cancelled as new safety measures were brought in the slope was levelled off

How is Slash a shadow of his former self? He's playing better than he ever has

If you'd seen the band when I seen them you'd understand

What a joke! That's a polite term for that band.  

The correct term I believe is "The Axl Rose Band"

I think after about 20 minutes i'd be bored they're a shadow of their former selves plus this NITL Tours gone on far too long 

I hope things are sorted for Donington or the crowd could get restless

Except that attitude looks entirely unprofessional in this day and age.....

I think i'd rather have a bit of edginess the tour's becoming stale 

If either the sound or Axl aren't right tonight we might see Axl kicking off. Tbh that may give the tour a bit of edge because at the minute the tour is becoming rather predictable. Everyone knows the set list, they come on & leave on time. It's too clinical the tour needs a bit of edge a bit of uncertainty. At one time Guns were called "the most dangerous band in the world" At the moment they risk being called "the most punctual & clinical band in the world" I say bring back the edginess what do you guys think ?

Maybe's we need him to start getting angry to add a bit of edge to the shows. They are becoming very predictable on & off at set times everyone knows the set list. It's all becoming a bit stale 

This second  shows very important if the sound or Axl aren't right. We could see the return of angry Axl were he storms off the stage.

they played bilbao on 30th may last year, that was the 20th anniversary of west arkeen and nothing was said so axl saying a few words about 2 guys he never knew dying 30 years ago is unlikely 

These two guys were trampled to death during Guns set at Donington in 1988. It'll be a huge disappointment if Axl doesn't mention them during the show.

Guns are scheduled to play a 3 & half hour show at Donington on Saturday night.

On at 19:20

Off at 22:50

Anything less won't go down well with the crowd. I'm also expecting Axl saying a few words as a tribute to the 2 guys who died during Guns set at Donington in 1988

Still no scope links ?
