GNR 1991 Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 There was a show at the Mandalay Bay? The Vegas shows I was aware of from 2001 were the Hard Rock and the House of Blues.Anyways, when we waiting for GN'R to hit the stage in 2006 in Oakland, I was talking to some dude who told me he was at one of those Vegas shows, and he said that Silkworms sounded totally different than it did at Rio. He said it sounded way better. I wonder if he was just stoned or talking out of his ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jellyzero Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I was at the HOB show 010101. It was a great time but there was some dude beside me who was making a documentary about it and kept bothering me. I wonder if it ever got made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eschman Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 I most remember sitting outside the show for hours, andx the hotel peeps wanting us to stand the whole time. Also, this girl and her boyfriend kept trying to gt in front of me, but it wasn't happening.Btw, hard rock is in mandalay bay, for whomever was confused.Lol @ it didn't happen. It's the first show the new band did. Supposed to start at 1 am, but man it was late. I almost missed my plane to ak the next morning. So much fun though.

Janabis Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Just to clear up the confusion, the House of Blues is inside the Mandalay Bay. This was the first show the new band did in the early hours of 1.1.01. It was easily the most memorable show I've attended, and there's a good audio bootleg of it. They returned to Vegas a year later to play two shows at the Joint in the Hard Rock Hotel, but there are no bootlegs of those two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdxballer Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I was there 010101 at the HOB, which is in Mandalay Bay. It was a surreal night seeing Axl after all those years. When i first saw him, I was tripping out because I knew it was him but he looked so much different but i couldn't put my finger on it. After it was revealed that he had plastic surgery, then it all made sense. I took my girlfriend and we got right up to the front. She saw me act like a little girl when the band came on and still married me. LOL. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
