Popular Post MillionsOfSpiders Posted June 10, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) 45 minutes ago, MyPrettyTiedUpMichelle said: Totally agree. Not believing anything. lol Looking forward to your concert report! I was watching from a combination of FB stream and Meegan's and GNR's. The FB stream guy was an absolutely champion. He filmed the ENTIRE concert from start to finish uninterrupted (except for connection issues now and then, which he wouldn't have been aware of). I have to wonder at his phone battery - must be super charged. Anyway, we were with you in spirit! I’m not very good at concert reviews, I never write them because I’m rubbish at them lol....I had the best time I’ve ever had at any show I’ve been to yesterday. The atmosphere where I was was so amazing - I was right next to the mixing tower, I got that spot and had to stay there because you really couldn’t move after 5pm. I’ve never seen so many people there and so desperate to get good spots! Everybody looked after each other and there was no shoving or pushing. We saw a helicopter come in about an hour before GnRs set and we all were chanting AXL!! The place went bonkers when they came out and played ISE and it was all so loud and clear, can’t fault the sound guys at all. I could hear some vocal struggles during a couple of songs - TIL was bad, Axl knew it. I think he might as well have not bothered to sing Slither, we sang that for him I’d say Axl sounded good to me for the majority of the songs from where I was...he looked like he was giving it everything and he was running around loads. Loved that he kept the backwards cap for a little while....I noticed him go up to Slash a couple of times and one of them he got a huge smile from him because I think Slash also had the time of his life last night! It was funny when Axl walked up to that railing at the end of the stage and shook the hell out of it because it was wobbly and his little rodeo dance made everyone laugh! Slash was amazing, just awe inspiring and so loud! He was really energetic too and jumping all over the place - Axl commented on it but I forgot what called him now lol. I went with someone who had never seen any of the guys and she couldn’t get over Slash, she was mesmerised by him, we all know that feeling though, right? He looked really emotional at the end of the show Duff was just as awesome too, he was solid as ever and his back up vocals were really good, he helped out Axl a lot. He has so much stage presence. I saw his daughter with Meegans daughters all singing and dancing whenever I could see them, they even did during the CD songs lol! As for the rest of the band, Frank made lots of mistakes that even I noticed. I don’t know what he played for the YCBM intro but it sucked and he sounded horrible on SCOM. Fortus still doesn’t fit in with Slash imo. Hated his Nightrain solo, hated any of his solos. The other two were just there. Overall it’s the best time I’ve ever had seeing GnR and probably the best time I ever had at any show, ever (Axl/dc is still really close lol)! I was glad they finished early because after holding our spots for so long and then the three hour set I was desperate for the toilet - I should’ve demanded a porcelain throne with silky toilet paper too after how long I had to wait I’m happy now, if that’s to be the last time I ever see them that’s fine with me because it was so epic and it will be such a great memory to have of them.

Alja Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) @MillionsOfSpiders If it was at least as good as Prague, it must have been time of your life. I can connect to it, so it`s a good review.

Yesterday was the parade of the Queen Elizabeth's birthday but then where the #hollaback girl comes from?!?!? In this video, he seems to be looking a lot to the side of the stage while singing Happy Birthday. Maybe it was dedicated to someone sitting there? 13 hours ago, killuridols said: Exactly. Although he's always said that he cant be exclusive to one woman, so whoever wants to be with him has to accept that aspect of him. So maybe Sasha plays that game too. But it's been too long, neither of them seem to be in a serious relationship with someone else and they hang out from time to time, not so regularly, but it has not stopped since 2006 either... so what kind of relationship is it? I don't think they have even proper relationship (open or whatever). I think they just have occasional encounters, mostly when he's in the UK. It puzzles me when I get the impression that people cannot close a chapter in their lives and just move on. My impression looking from very far away is that Sasha is there, for over 12 years, hanging around him/the Lebeis, maybe in the expectation that something will happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the best crowd so far. So much energy!!! The Brits never disappoint to rock. Really cool that you had such a great time. PS: I completely find they have a point in asking for porcelain toilet and silky toilet paper. Given the choice, I'd do it as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackstar Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Happy Birthday @Georgina Arriaga and @Zoot! ------ As for the tweet, I too think it's about the Queen. For some reason he finds it amusing to wish her happy birthday. He saw that the reaction of the English crowd wasn't warm last year, so he tweeted it this time 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Told you I’m shit at reviews Fantastic review, I really feel the love coming from it!! Delighted you had such a good time! I love to hear about Axl and Slash laughing and clearly enjoying a show. Did you see the clip that’s been circulating of them from behind, where Axl puts his hand on Slash’s back for a moment during SCOM? That ties in with the good vibes you describe. Well done for your physical endurance too! Do the guys realise what we put ourselves through for them?! Festivals are an endurance test, I will only ever go to one again for Guns!! Its much harder on girls too, in Sweden I’ll have my period, first time at a big long show, and I’m already stressing about how I’ll manage for so many hours without the toilet!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
