I would highly recommend coming over to the Canadian side if you have the time.  You can actually cross as a pedestrian and get a great view if you want to.

Of course just make sure you have the correct documents etc....

 

That would be like me actually... to get held up in Canada for not having the right documents then miss the gig...

I wouldn't line up to early. The pit has been generally small for this tour. It's not jam packed like a lot of bands. Even if you showed up 5 mins before they took the stage you'd still only be 4 people from the fronts

Thanks for the info! Are you local? My OH is keen to visit Niagara Falls in the morning before heading to the venue... is it feasible to get to the falls and back all in one morning?

Only around 48 hours to go!! Heading for the airport in the morning!

My OH and I are in pit right (not early entry)... obviously we want to get as close to barrier as possible. What time should we starting queuing?

Hey what's happening to our lovely WT?

cmon let's not be like the other threads, bitchin' and snipin' ...

lets get back to talking about Axl's hair, ,fortus moobs, that sort of thing!!

Does it even count as a kilt when it's made out of leather?

Isn't that basically just a leather skirt then?

*clears throat as Celtic person* *though Irish, not Scottish*

I believe it can be described as a kilt if it has pleats and is wraparound style. However you're right that strictly speaking kilts have the tartan design and are made of wool.

This looks like an amazing show. I wish there was a complete video of it (and without the stupid X on the screen )

Axl was experimenting with his looks...

I like the way he wore the kilt here (and in the early days) better than how he did in the UYI era.
 

 

Amazing. Really gives a feel for how they moved, looked and sounded in those days. Interesting Axl with ponytail look - he must have decided it wasn't for him and I agree, much sexier hair down. Thank you for posting.

"I have a couple of pictures saved on my computer of Axl's bare ass so I'm not disappointed." @purplestargirl  That what I love about this thread, where else could you say this?!

I think it's the muse of Poetry... can't quite remember... I tried to change it recently actually but it doesn't seem to have worked.

Because up to that moment I was mainly listening to male artists and this is the first female band that I gave a try. From there I started listening to lots of female musicians so yeah....

Ok, here's one more copycat Axl that I just remembered 

Fucking Ricky Martin in a skirt or kilt 

 

 

Oh Jesus Ricky Martin just go away.

Linda Perry and her band were the first non-GNR that I started to listen to when they went away. That album, her voice and her image made me rethink everything.

Out of likes!

Bolded: in what way?

Funny thing is, while Axl is attractive, he is not one of my celebrity crushes. Duff, on the otherhand, is. My brain is weird.

I find the exact opposite... Axl was and is out of this world sexy, while Duff is cute and gangly, yeah I'd sleep with him for sure but it would be no big deal  while with Axl, if I met him I think I would be too dumbstruck to do anything.

Yes, there was the singer from Def Leppard wore those underpants kind of thing with combat boots and white socks during the 1992 VMA's.

And Linda Perry wears combat boots, white socks and some sort of men boxer underpants in this video from 1994:

 

From 2000-2017? Don't you mean 2007?

No, there aren't. Please show them but I'm 99% sure there aren't.

Barefoot Axl?

Here's one!

 

We bow to your outstanding fund of knowledge in all things GNR. You are hereby granted the Women's Thread PhD in GunsNRosesness. (Or the money honey PhD anyway - recognised worldwide. )

Seriously, awesome references. I was a massive Def Leppard fan. But just look at poor Joe Elliott in this clip! He's like a really bad Axl tribute act. He has all the ingredients - boots, shorts, even a dressing gown for Gods sake - but he looks terrible and oh so un-sexy. (Sorry Joe, I did love you once.)

I LOVE that 4NonBlondes video. I hadn't seen it since it first came out. That woman sure does rock the boots and white socks look. Almost on a par with Axl.

Axl Rose Kilt appreciation post

Fuck me. That;s awesome, thanks for doing it!! He was beyond sexy with fringe + kilt in the UYI tour.

And we see the white socks in many of these pics too. They're just about OK on Axl, given that it's him, with Doc Martens. Any other way, white socks are a crime.  Sorry @Frey.

There's discussion over on the thread for tonight's show (Arkansas) about how the band will do in a small, non-sold-out venue. Will be interesting how it goes in terms of our show.

Edit: looks like Arkansas was a blast and fairly full. I don't think we need worry for Buffalo.

In fear of nightmares about commando Axl?

 Lying awake all night fantasising about it!! 

5 minutes ago, purplestargirl said:

The kilt can also be brought back. Now I'm wondering if he went commando when he did wear it. 

I'm a big fan of the kilts Axl wore. The black leather kilt and fishnet belly top combination was genius. Who else could make it work??

Re commando... Jesus there goes a good night's sleep...

I can't see it either but it doesn't look like the work of mods... Check if it's removed from the source. I remember it was some imgur thing and it had to load.

It's still at the source: 

 My tank top image has disappeared!! Is it possible that mods deleted it?!

@money honey I'm a lady, but you look fantastic!

Shucks, thanks. My husband took it, he may have focused on a certain angle...

I'm happy cos let's face it, that's as close to GNR as my breasts will ever get...

To the OP @GNRfanx6 this is a brilliant idea for a thread, I love it. Thanks!

My mind has been exploding today over St Louis. The litho with the reference to Axl's words before he dived from the stage, happy smiley Axl, the show going off without incident and apparently with a brilliant atmosphere, and last but not least the "partner in crime" thing!! Reminds me of his intro to Slash at Slane when he said "your friend and mine" which blew my mind too. 

Slight niggle about "partner in crime" though... cute as it is, it struck me that Axl seemed to be kinda attributing some of the blame for the riot to Slash, who had no part in it?? Slash was effectively a bystander, watching from behind his guitar as the whole clusterfuck unfolded. Wonder if Slash has thoughts on this??

Axl at the end of Rocket Queen, after singing "All I ever wanted was for you to know that I care", doffing his hat and bowing slightly while holding it over his heart;

Wow awesome! Thanks for describing that moment.

Thanks to the attendees who wrote descriptions and reviews here, I've just caught up and it sounds mind-blowing!!

I remember Axl saying, after Erin had the miscarriage, that they wanted to try it again, that's why they were moving to the new house.

I never heard that. If it's true it's so fucking sad that it never happened. Even if he an Erin had still subsequently broken up, having a child in his life would have made all the difference to him, IMO.

11 minutes ago, Frey said:

Just because we haven't heard about any accidental babies, doesn't mean he has trouble creating any.

Duff, Izzy and Slash somehow managed to not have any unplanned children either. And yet Duff and Slash at least were perfectly capable of procreating when they wanted to.

Do we seriously believe that none of the AFD5 ever got anyone pregnant in the early days??? After reading Duff's book 'It's so easy', where he states that he never used any contraception in those days - and we can safely assume that the other guys behaved the same - it's statistically very likely that there were quite a few pregnancies. We've just never heard about them because, in my opinion, the women in question would have been paid off to keep quiet about it once the band got successful. In other words, in a situation where there's as much sex as there was in the very early days, the days of the Gardner St studio, and Hell House, there HAS TO have been pregnancies.

Another clue for me is also in Duff's book: he states that when Susan got pregnant with their first child, he had never experienced pregnancy in a way that was welcome before (or words to that effect; I'm paraphrasing as I don't have the book to hand right now). That to me suggests that he had experienced pregnancy in an *unwelcome* way before.

I feel terrible for their family and Duff. Losing a pet is incredibly hard and to have to go perform so soon after is going to be really hard on him.

Isn't this the dog that Duff had before he even met Susan, the one who was so loyal to him? Poor guy.

These words,  I agree 100% with this especially because I always see people wanting to fill the void with a kid, sometimes it gives me the impression that some people think of a child as a puppy or something that ain't a big deal.

A kid is a lifetime compromise. 

But returning to Axl, idk, he may not be a role model and he may have issues, but lets be honest, most of parents aren't super qualified to be parents... 

The guy has money, lots of servants (TB)  can I call them that? ( not very professional in my eyes)  and he doesn't look to crazy to me nowadays, I can't say much about him because  I don't know him, but for what I have read in here he has his moments, but I wouldn't say he isn't apt to have a son/daughter.

So I would say it is his decision and his right for that matter. I mean MJ had kids and they look pretty normal to me... idk that's my opinion

 

I  hope he reproduce soon  even if it is with Sasha (at this rate it doesn't matter). 

it is either that  or what Frey said..

If it's what he wants, I hope he can achieve  the circumstances to have children too.

12 hours now that's long! Yes originally I was gonna wear my Michael Kor wedges (I've worn them to the other GNR shows) but I think I'm opting for either flats or runners. 

Honestly, I think this message board and other FB groups are negative overall. I'm a positive person who had a blast at the shows and am going to 6 this year!! 

P.S. Hubby's family from Ireland the castle must've been a mythical backdrop!! ????

Woah, 6?? Where?

I think she's just really happy and in love. And honestly, I'd be gloating/looking triumphant too if I was with someone like Slash. 

Also, your username gets "Welcome To The Jungle" stuck in my head everytime I see it. 

Bolded: Too true  

WTTJ being stuck in your head is no bad thing though!?! I adore the way Axl spits out "money honey" in that line.
