Anyone who can do updates?If not, my mates phone will be stolen before the concert Don't worry about updates - seriously - its not like it is a live football game and people are keen to know the score. The emphasis on setlist updates are not necessary. While I must admit I do often follow them and appreciate people's efforts and especially their own personal reviews of the show I reckon just go and have a fuckin' good time mate!

Was a Newcastle 06 and Gateshead 93. Really looking forward to this. Can do updates but don't really want to as I'll be right at the front enjoying the show!

cc4rhu Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Yeah '92 doesn't time fly. Remember the cup being thrown at Duff who offered the guy out on stage? The guy tried his hardest to get on the stage mind! Please none of this on Wednesday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please none of this on Wednesday...God yeah, didnt Axl say something like "He's not drank anything for a week and he's not happy" was in the middle of My Michelle. Ironically, if you recall, it was no-where near a sell out (loads of empty seats) and this was their peak - goes to show, EVEN then...... Anyway, have a fab night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KetchupNotMayo Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Was also at the Newky gig back in '06, seem to remember Axl was on absolutely blinding form before things went tits up. Here's hoping they're on all cylinders again come Wednesday, got that familiar itch that comes before a GN'R show... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping they're on all cylinders again come Wednesday, got that familiar itch that comes before a GN'R show...I know this is a little off topic, but I've always been amused by the expression, "tits up". I never get to hear that used being from the US, though Anyway, I hope you all have a great show.Ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W. Adam S Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Hope it is as good as the Liverpool show! I was extremely drunk though so they may have actually been terrible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One.In.A.Million Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Should be another great show, so far been to Dublin and Nottingham already on this tour, and the band are indeed tight as ever. I also dig hearing Massive Attack - Splitting The Atom, as the intro music, it has really grown on me, set's up CD really well. I've got some really mint HD videos from the shows I attended, but youtube is taking forever in uploading them, so when I get back from Newcastle I might try Dailymotion.If anyone wants to meet up for a beer, just PM me on here or post in the thread.

cc4rhu Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 (edited) Don't know if anyone is planning on driving up the A1 to get to the show but from Washington services up to the Newcastle turn off has seen delays of around 1 hour the last few days. Personally I would take the A194 off from Washington heading towards the Tyne tunnel, left at Whitemere roundabout and along the Felling bypass and over the Tyne Bridge.Edit - Just thought, could someone let Axl know Edited May 22, 2012 by cc4rhu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felling by-Pass and the Tyne Bridge at rush hour? Personally speaking, leave 30 minutes earlier and stick it out (A1) but yeah, see what you're saying.
