It's definitely weird that out of all the shows they've finished late as all hell around like 2am, they cut one short at 1:30am for transport reasons! :lol:

Kinda funny, but hell, I'm sure nobody at the show gives a fuck, they got a stunning show. The only ones with any negatives to draw from this will be the usual NME article rolled out in the morning with one sentence about how Axl ended the show early to let fans get the last train home and about 3 paragraphs of every negative point of his career thus far.

Do you really think an American from California is going to have his finger on the pulse on the relative availability of public transportation late at night in different parts of England?

In other words, the gesture should be considered given the complaints that have been made recently about this.

The gesture of cutting the show short you mean? :lol: Maybe he can be extra thoughtful tomorrow and cut it short by a couple of hours just out of concern for the fans? :lol: Come on man, it was an awesome show but starting 20 minutes earlier would have meant people got to see the full encore. Not complaining and I can't wait to see him tonight, I just think it's not as simple as all that.

Actually, it would be even more comfortable for people to not have to worry about the trains if he canceled the show. They wouldn't even have to get there in the first place.

2hours50 of rock n' roll, Izzy on 6 songs, 14 years, Dead Flowers. Wow Kickass gig !

Yes. Izzy! Take note kids (Nu fans). That's how it used to be. TWAT is right.....

what am I suppose to take note of? Why can't we have the best of both worlds?

Because as technically perfect these hired guys are, the magic isn't there. Good shows- yes. Magic/chemistry-no.

Maybe you're onto something there! Yeah, this could be the birth of a new more considerate Axl! Maybe he'll cut the shows down to an hour or so next time just to make sure the fans can get home for the babysitter? :lol:

Shut up. Don't tell people to "take notes" or call them "nu fans" because it sounds incredibly stupid and snobbish.

someone (in this case ONLY ONE) posts a usual overreaction of excitment for the show and like the usual two or three come right in and stomp all over their excitement (you know who you are )

No, not what I meant. The ship had already sailed on the start of the show by that point. That couldn't have been undone by then. But, giving everyone "Paradise City" earlier and ending the show earlier is all that could be done by then. There was a complaint raised earlier this week and he attempted to address it. Granted, starting earlier would have been better, yes, but at the same time, this does not show a complete indifference to fans' transportation needs as some have suggested there is on Axl's part.

thats not cool dude. Snowmass and I have a difference of opinion but to respond to him like that is out of line. That is how personal attacks start and threads turn into arguments instead of discussions.

But I have a better idea. If they started playing at 3 or 4 AM, people would easily go home by catching the first trains that day. If the show gets too long, well, there are going to be trains for the next 18 hours at least.

Note- the kids call it "Nu Guns". JFC. Not my wording. 1st I heard that term was on here. Read around on the threads.

There goes the argument that Axl doesn't care about or respect the fans' transportation needs.

Ali

Agreed again Ali,you are a shining beacon in defense of GNR on numerous boards and I respect your intelligence and consistent,logical posts.

If I can do anything for you please let me know.

Doesnt get much better than Izzy's electric guitar on One in a Million. Axl + Izzy = greatest duo, should do an album.

A duet album by Axl and Izzy would be incredible. Can you imagine how good that album would be?
