I really liked Libertad also. I bet, I really like how Scott sounds. He can capture really classic sounds too with his voice, as well as modern rock. A show of that size would be an amazing experience. I really, really feel Libertad would have been far greater with Messages included. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will sound strange, but 1 of the VR gigs I caught was at Donnington in 2005, they were on just before Sabbath and the crowd was over 100,000. Weiland shined more there than the club gig. He was on fire that day for sure. The 2 theatre gigs were on the last leg of the Libertad tour, I think they broke up about a week later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked Libertad also. 14 times!! I always feel like a freak having seen some bands 10-12 times. Great to see there’s other gig freaks out there! I have seen quite a few bands double figures. VR were really special at the time. You can't argue with 2 albums in 3 years and multiple tours. Scott will always be one of my favourite frontmen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shame they didn't make Libertad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy crowd at Download. I caught 2 shows on their last tour at Newcastle and Birmingham in 2008 before the breakup. Their last show was actually 1 April.

Great VR thread this 👍 I was well up the front at Donnington, I got my place early in the day during Anthrax, water bottles in each pocket and bars of chocolate. Trying to roll a joint in that crowd was a fucking disaster! By the time Sabbath came on there was people passing out around me, one girls head just flopped on my shoulder and a few of us managed to get her up and passed out to the security. I thought I was going to puke by the time Sabbath were over... That was the last time I saw Sabbath with Bill Ward. (Sabbath are one of those bands Ive seen in double digits) That Download festival had one of the best lineups of any festival Ive gone to. It was the 2 Dublin gigs I caught on the last tour, Despite the tensions that later came out they were great. I’m not sure Slash or Duff were entirely sober at this point... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure if I saw GnR 2 times because I saw Motley Crue and GnR may have the been opening band for that tour. I know I saw GnR once for sure. Hey, it was free for me so that is why I cannot remember. Long story short, I worked at my university arena and got to see some free shows. 2nd or 3 rd show, NITL tour last year, Austin. And that is enough for me in my lifetime. I loved your comment. Lucky you got to see them at the very start of it all. @Amaya u witnessed history ******* Anyone here that attended RIP Magazine party 90? with Guns , Skid Row and Metallica ?

Lethalis Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) GNR at least 3 times I can remember (Ahoy Rotterdam, Gelredome Arnhem, and once in Goffertpark Nijmegen). Too lazy to check the dates, but NuGuns twice (once with Bumblefoot, and one time with Ashba) and once with Duff and Slash. And I went to Velvet Revolver at the Heineken Music Hall once. And have seen Duff with Walking Papers. All of this in The Netherlands, where I live. So I have seen Axl 3 times, Duff 3 times, Fortus 3 times and Slash twice. Never saw Izzy live unfortunately.

jekylhyde Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Guns two times. In 2010 and 2017. Duff's Loaded once in 2009. Had a ticket for a Velvet Revolver show in 2004, but I broke my foot and couldn't go. Still kicking myself over that sometimes. Especially, because I broke it, because I was drunk. So dumb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
