First show finally in the bag.

Night started off at the casino.  I very quickly went to levels bar meet up which was cool.  But then went to the craps table to gamble for my beers.  This worked for awhile.  Randomly Virgil from the wwf wrestling world was also gambling at the table, I won him like 25 bucks.

Headed to the stadium and found my my upgrade plan worked. I bought a ticket from stub hub in the closed upper deck and got down in lower bowl for half the money.  

Perfect.

Found my seat, which was in 131 just    behind the the second tower of speakers.

Band comes out and the set is fire.  Vocals for me were muddled at some points.

 Having worked tons of shows myself I   believe the problem has more to do with the second set of speakers they are using, and it's  interaction with physical venue.  The wings don't connect at hentiz at the back of the stadium thus sound waves disappear no reflection which they are counting on when hanging the speakers like they did.

I digress, five songs in I move to 133 firmly now with  second speakers  behind me and boom everything is clear as day.

 His voice is on point and never got lost the rest of the show.  It's hard to do perfect sound that big in different venues with the same setup.

I got my patience encore, and civil war was so good.  I literally forgot how much I love that song until they played it.  It really should be a classic rock staple more.  Coma and estranged were awesome.  My Michelle rocked, perhaps best opening line in any hard rock song ever.

I was ready for less voice from axl but I found myself going wow a lot when he hit the high notes or the growl.  He is bringing it and sounded on point.  Wish they threw in yesterday's but I have no complaints.

Pretty tame crowd overall, it was hard to smoke a joint or a cig.  No fights which was nice.  Tuesday in a small market so that's about normal I guess.

I loved it and hope to do it again in the next go around.
