Scaramouche Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I've so many good memories from shows etc. that I can't only choose one.- Seeing Duff play with them in London. Don't think any show can ever top that. Everyone was on fire.- Ron, Tommy and Richard waving and pointing from stage several times.- Ron sitting down on stage, playing right in front of me in Manchester.- Seeing them for the first time in Bergen, in my hometown. Even the long wait is just a good memory.- Meeting Axl, Richard, Ron, DJ, Dizzy. And that some of them actually remembered me.- The start with Chinese Democracy, from every show I've been to.- Holding CD in my hands for the first time.

stevo81 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) Seeing them for the 1st time in 06 - specifically the first few notes of WTTJ followed by Axl's scream. And seeing Izzy up on stage with them was amazing too.The Antiquiet leaks.The start of the tour a year ago.Seeing them in October this year - so much better than they were 4 years ago.And buying UYI2 way back when I was like 10 or 11 - first album I ever bought.

Stealing my older brother's AFD tape in 1988#4. 5/12/06 & 5/14/06 @ Hammerstein in NYC#5. Hearing OMG for the first time in late 90sNot appearing: missing the UYI tour b/c parents wouldn't allow me to goAlso, the 2002 VMAs appearance was just off-the-charts exciting.

tomc102968 Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 long island before i heard November rain. i got there 2 hours late (missed bach with his original band) awaited two more hours. they went on stage at midnight. Took my fathers car and his credit card for gas but the next day my father argued the concert didnt go on at midnight so i was lying. without checking i would guess it was a sat night concert because the sunday times was delivered to my father and a review was in the paper. 1st complaint started at midnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Money Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 BEST MOMENTS AS A GNR FAN1. Finding out the day of the 2002 VMA's that Axl was going to close the show and rushing home from work to watch (only to be disappointed hours later, which would be a low point )2. Winning $6,000 at the Blackjack Table after a nice dinner at the Rainbow Bar & Grill before the 2006 Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas show. It was cool to be escorted by Hard Rock Hotel & Casino security into the Joint ahead of the long line of fans wrapped around the casino and out the building. My pockets were lined with $100.00 bills and I bought a shit load of merchandise and Red Bull & Vodkas that night. We were inches from the stage! 3. Final night of Hammerstein Ballroom show in New York in 2006.WORST MOMENTS AS A GNR FAN1) 2002 VMA performance2) Getting busted lying to mother to attend 1991 St. Louis Riverport concert and was unable to attend with my older friends, who were in high school and driving. As it turns out, maybe it was better that I didnt get to go to that one. 3) The ongoing ridicule I receive from people who find it crazy that I'm still a die-hard Guns N' Roses fan.

bigcountry Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 (edited) Oringal Band: Seeing them live for the first time when they opened for Alice Cooper in Cape Girardeau Mo!!!!! I thought just a few weeks before the show I was taking my girlfriend who is my wife now to see Faster Pussycat, Ace amd Alice, then the openers dropped out and it was GNR opening!!! I also got Axl and Izzy autographs at that show, to bad they where lost in a house fire! New Band: I guess what made me most exicted was when my brother called me during the 2002 VMA's saying he seen Axl on TV (forgot all about it to honest) and just seeing what the new band was like. Yeah Axl struggled at the end of Jungle and through out PC but it still didn't take away the from the moment, for me anyway!!!!! I liked the way he sang Maddy that night so much better than the vocals on the album, still like the song though.Also seeing the stream of RIR III Loved it during ISE when he tossed the guy! Classica Axl!!! Still go to youtube to see that.The acutal release of CD didn't exicite me that much with all the leaks but it was great going and buying it and actually having in my hands.I just hope against hope that if they put out a new album there are NO leaks of any songs. I know I could just not listen to the leaks but it just so hard when you want something like that not to do it. I know if a new song leaked at this moment I would have to hear it even though it would in effect spoil the moment of going to buy the album and blasting it out on the way home and for it to be for the first time ever hearing it, like back when UYI was released.

Guest Sleeping Like An Angel Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 For me personally, it was the first time I listened to AFD. I never ever felt like that excited about an album. From start to finish I was hooked. I remember the dilemma of whether or not I should repeat the song or play it through. I knew from that day on that was my favourite band and nothing in the world compared to them. Of course the first time I saw them live was special. I spent the first few songs sitting there in shock. I couldn't believe that it was Axl up on that stage. It was actually very emotional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't believe that it was Axl up on that stage. It was actually very emotional.Totally agree. Every now and then when I bust out AFD again it takes me back. Jungle ends and just as the energy is dying it's like 'oh now comes It's So Easy' then the same as Nightrain begins. It was just this perpetual onslaught of energy and excitement for me. I genuinely believe that the books I am into and the films I like and my enjoyment of alot of things stems from the sense of excitement and freedom I got from that record.First time I saw GNR (and VR) for that matter I did spend the first few songs thinking things like "right, I'm here, and Axl is right there, this is a bit peculiar."

HB3 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Hamilton 2010 without a doubt. Easily the best two and a half hours of my life. Driving up there all the way from Indiana was totally worth it. Ron threw his pick to me, (so did DJ but some jerk took it from me. I was about to start something but then thought otherwise because I didn't want to get thrown out or distract the band), and I got Frank's drumstick. It was such an amazing concert. I wish I could relive it over and over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
