Got them mixed up a bit, lol. There was indeed a Dublin gig in 2010 where Axl came back and sang nighttrain standing still being pissed because someone threw stuff up the stage I think...

It still sounds very improvised. Its good, but it has no real structure. Just a melting pot of slash emotions. Which is not bad, but not as perfect as his classic solos.

After how great the band's performance was last night, I bet they put another 65,000 in there tonight. Very positive Word of Mouth should be spreading around Mexico City today. http://www.billboard.com/biz/current-boxscore It seems that even reunited Guns N' Roses cannot beat the mighty Coldplay...(or Stones for that matter).. Don't get me wrong.. I would have loved to have seen Guns outnumber Coldplay but here it seems impossible... 3 sold out shows against 2 of Guns!!! I still am amazed how even the reunion of GnR couldn't beat this.. I guess that just shows the magnitude of Coldplay!! Props to them...

Nicklord Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) Rolling Stones had huge catwalk and they also divided whole front area in several smaller ones and that probably lowered that number by a lot.

Just noticed Coldplay is on vacation until late May after that third Mexico City show a few days ago. GN'R has to play Saturday in California. Even if they felt they could sell it out again I'm not sure they would want to due to the Coachella schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axeli Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) Wow! Looking good!! It feels like they still have a little handbrake on, but they are getting it. If Axl's voice is rocking, nothing can stop this. One thing. I think Dj did that TIL solo better, but Slash will nail that that soon.. When Europe?

Nosaj Thing Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Am I crazy or did Frank play the intro of November Rain correctly for the first time in his career? Can't believe it, November Rain is finally complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
