Dare you guys to shout "Axl, come back to mygnr" infact; get a permanent marker and write it on BS's chest and make him go shirtless!

BS -- you're fuckibg dropped if you decline! K? Thanx have fun xx

For the record, he did actually shout it :lol:

MyGnR? MyGnR?

Only the biggest fan forum for Guns on the net, Beta. No conflict here.

Interesting story Bs.

Disappointed he didn't get kicked out like you expected?
Sorry what? I'm interested in why Beta feels like she has to make a peace offering and say we're all friends. Of course we're all friends, we're fans!

Id be disappointed if Bs got kicked out!

She was just having a bit of fun with him, nothing more, nothing less. The "peace offering" thing was obviously a joke.
Would she have gave the same reaction if they had said HTGTH. Just speculating, but youre right she was probably just joking around.

Quick and Dirty Review

Opener: The kids can flat out play. Originality may have been lacking, but they're super young so you can overlook that.

GNR: Axl sounded pretty damn good tonight. He seemed to use the rasp more than in other recent shows and he didn't really appear to struggle with it. The band had great chemistry and interacted well with the crowd. Only time I cringed was during "Better".

Cool Story, Bro: Had to say "sorry, excuse us" to Tommy Stinson after my girlfriend almost drunkenly plowed into him in the casino while he was bringing take-out back to his hotel room. He just laughed it off.

Thanks for giving us an insight, man.

Honestly, PC sounds the best I've heard in that video since Hellfest 2012, definitely one of the better PCs post-2010. Huge improvement from South America, maybe he'll sound better at this residency than the last one.

I honestly can't hear any kind of improvement at all. In what aspects can you hear huge improvements?

There's rasp intermittently throughout the song, he's not squeaky Mickey Mouse... it's better than any '02 PC, and comparable to some of the weaker pre-'11 PCs. Nothing amazing, but definitely better than anything in recent memory bar Hellfest.

Why is The Seeker still in the setlist? It's a fun enough song, but it's been more than 18 months now they've been playing it. According to setlist.fm, they've played it 44 times. Apart from The Who, the only band who've played it more often are Rush (57 times).

Where's Black Sabbath and all the other Axl Attire Aficionados? I want to know what t-shirt Axl is wearing in PC.

Man, did DJ fuck up that PC solo :no:

"Let's give it up for DJ Ashba!"

A few more points I feel like mentioning:

- first time hearing Fortus' new solo and DJ's new solo. Loved Fortus, even better than Blacklight Jesus IMO. Hated La Bella Vita, easily my least favorite DJ solo.

- There was a really cool jam in place of a strictly speaking piano solo for Dizzy. Don't know what it was, but all 3 of us loved it.

- Speaking of Dizzy, they didn't bring out the piano for Catcher, he played it from his spot on stage. Weird since even at the Ritz he did SOD on the piano.

- The venue was pretty cool for GN'R I thought; the stage was a quasi UCAP setup, but the venue wasn't limited to a UCAP size crowd.

- DJ handed out a bottle of Jäger for security to give people along the barrier. They went along pouring about a shot in everyone's mouth (as long as they had the 21+ Wristbands). I got the last shot of it, and then there was about another shot's worth in the bottle which the security guard poured over my head. Waste of good Jäger if you ask me :max:

We're taking our time heading home, gonna do the Yuengling brewery tour and stop at a couple of wineries near where I went to school. When we get home tonight though, I'll start posting my pics :)

It's not that much bigger than some of the UCAP shows, is it? 3000 last night? I thought some UCAP shows were over 2000.

You dont see any improvement at all from Golden Gods and other 2014 shows? It's not dramatic, lets not get ridiculous, but whereas Golden Gods was an 8.5/10 on the cringe scale, these vids go for about 5/10 cringe. Edited by magisme

3500. I think Roseland was the biggest UCAP gig, I think about 2200.

Some of the 2011 US arena shows were about 4000, right?

Probably actual attendance numbers, not capacity. Don't know for sure though.

It's still 10/10 cringe for me. Whenever Axl sounds like a dying woman, it'll be 10/10 cringe. No 30 seconds of rasp or smiling on stage will change my views.

Some really great vocals from Axl! It's weird to say the least that out of the blue Axl can pull out a strong voice then fade all the sudden at the next show into mickey mouse cringeworthy vocals once again….go figure! It's also noticeable that Axl has lost a bit of weight, so that might help a bit too.

Happy to see Axl performing at a decent level once again. :)
