U2 puts on a great live show .Seen them twice most recently on their arena tour a few years back at the Forum.I really don't get the hate if you've never seen them live how could you possibly hate something you've never experienced.Theres a reason that they continue to sell out stadiums all over the world .Theyre the same 4 guys and they continue to put out new music and each tour is a different experience .I wish we had more bands like them .They could've quit creating new music ages ago and sold out arenas if not stadiums but they keep trying to create something new.Their last album I enjoyed and the life experience that went with it was incredible 

That place looks absolutely packed.I guess management knew what they were doing when they booked this 2nd leg of stadium shows.I was under the impression that this leg wasn't selling that greatly but the turnouts have been fantastic so far for all the shows.To put it into perspective a bit Green Day played their hometown a week ago amd they had to close the whole upper deck there was probably a little over 20,000 in attendance for their Oakland show.

Of one my favorites Not a weak album in their discography imo.Like others have already mentioned so much variety and it all blends together so well.

Think the Doors self titled debut fits in that group Jimi Hendrix Are You Experienced?as well

Seeing them tonight in Glendale. 

Hope u have a great time ,they still can bring it 

Went to Rose Bowl show last night .Getting into that place always sucks and last night was no exception .Caught a few songs of Avenged Sevenfold was hoping to catch entire set but took forever to get to our seat ,they sounded good and had the crowd going bummed I missed a majority of their set.As far as Metallica what I could add that hasn't been said already ?not much .They are just a fantastic live bad ,I've seen them many times over the years starting in 88 as a young but when they opened for Ozzy they were fantastic then and just as incredible last night .They sounded great ,James sounds nearly identical to his prime what's strange is I seen them a few months back at the Palladium and thought that he lost a noticeable amount of power in his voice but last night he and the band sounded just as good as their prime years .Ive been fortunate to see quite a few bands over the years and for me personally they are the best live  band out there.The place was absolutely packed and I didn't see a single person sitting down the whole show .

I'll go Tool ,I honestly don't think we'll ever get another full album of new material from Guns.Could've swore I read somewhere that Tool was "close" to finishing up their next album but hit a snag .Sound familiar ?

When I went to see them play in Vegas I had almost nothing to go on for over 20 years .I had seen Guns 5 times over a short period from opening for The Stones and concluding with their shows with Metallica .I remember Axl as being one who could run around like a madman and still sing with incredible power .With the first Vegas show I thought that he sounded ok but walked away thinking time is undefeated and he had lost quite a bit of power but he was still passable .Fast forward 4 months to Dodger Stadium and I was blown away at his performance.It was if time had stood still in a sense .I thought he sounded fantastic for his age and any age for that matter for a majority of the songs .I rarely watch videos from other shows but follow the tour /setlsit etc on here .The other night was excited like many on here for the Apollo show I checked out quite a few videos and played the audio while driving and the loss of power is very noticeable to me in many songs .The first thing I noticed when I seen Metallica a few months back at the Palladium for the first time in 15 years was how much power James Hetfiled had lost in his voice but he still sounds passable and I'm curious to see /hear again next week if there's improvement .As far as Axl is concerned he still sounds passable even good on some songs to me but if it gets any worse on certain songs is it time  to retire them live ?ycbm ,scom are 2 that come to mine after listening the other night .

Chester Bennington, Linkin Park's singer, found dead in his house. He commited suicide.

Wtf ?sad 

As far as Izzy is concerned he's been out of the band 25 years since then the band has written and recorded a grand total of zero songs that I care to hear live or otherwise .Hes as much a part of the success the band has had as anyone else and that includes Axl.This is just my opinion .Wish he was here even if only for a few songs 

Looking forward to tonight's show.For the forum members who are attending ,hope u have a great time .Its a fun time to be a fan again

I can't pick just one .AFD I always play in its entirety from start to finish.I love the flow the album has and if it was to ever was to get old listening to it I think it would've by now .Granted I may only listen to it a couple times a year now but it still sounds like rock and roll perfection to my ears now

Looks like he cut Believer and Desire from his set on the 2nd show last night.

New music.I wouldn't be suprised  if we don't get either of the two though .

I went to Vegas and LA and no it wasn't boring at all.I had a great time at both.Got 4 or 5 different songs at LA show from Vegas .Usually not a big fan of stadium shows but Dodger Stadium was a great show and better time then Vegas for me .Axl being in the chair took away a bit from the Vegas show I thought.Going  a 3rd time when they close out the tour at the Forum in November .

Desire and Believer ,wow !Good to see Ozzy playing some songs I didn't think he normally would .I checked out a few videos this morning Ozzy sounds ok to my ears ,definitely downtuned and a little off but it wasn't awful .

Rise Against last night at Shrine Expo Hall.$40 bucks ga with fees.They play again tonight.High energy show ,younger crowd I came away very impressed .Sounds kind of muddled up top ,make your way to the lower bowl and find yourself a spot if u go tonight makes a huge difference .

Sabbath ,Pearl Jam,Chilli Peppers,Doors and Zep.Metallica and Guns right there as well 

In my opinion he's passable still.If you compare him to David lee Roth ,Vince Neil he's great .Those 2 are finished  I seen live in the last couple years and they were awful it ruined the show for me .Axl can still pull it off .Look he's 55 no way no how is he going to sound like he did 20-30 years ago.Bono doesn't ,Hetfield doesn't no one does .Eddie Vedder still sounds great to my ears live .Anthony Keidis sounds almost as good as he did years ago.But most off if not all of the bands I've seen with 20 -25 years in between the first time and now have lost a bit of power .Time is undefeated.

Rise Against -Wolves .

First time seeker wasn't played on this tour ??

Stadium tour seems to be a huge success,packed houses at every stop so far.

At those retarded prices it's safe to assume this is no where close to a sellout since the gen sale began? 

Yeah I wasn't sure if I was going to go having seen them a couple of times on this tour already .But a pretty good group of friends are going so I went yesterday to grab a single and hop in .Pretty much could've grabbed a seat anywhere in the arena but certain areas sold fairly well 

Coma is a deep cut one that is extremely difficult to pull off live especially considering Axl is no spring chicken .But pull it off he did both times I heard it live
