AtlasShrugged Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Truly one of the great nights as a fan in recent memory. The nerves added to it. Couple of beers, lots of friends watching who wouldn’t normally watch. The great buzz on here. It wasn’t perfect but it was brilliant despite that. A real rise to the occasion moment. Axl giving everything and Slash other-worldly at times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought she was a fan. It was on a night out with Axl he said “not in this lifetime” wasn’t it? It’s hilarious to me that Axl was bang on time and putting in 100% the best show he can whilst someone else was driving their fans crazy by being late because they’re a diva and then got their sound pulled so had to do a sing a long with the crowd 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched it on tv and it looked huge, however couple of people on the efestival forums have said it was really easy to get into the pit around 10pm, one even said there was a huge exodus and said they’d never seen anything like it. Not so sure about that though. What "huge" is, is obviously relative to what other draw at that festival. There are a lot of people there, so ofc it's gonna be huge compared to something less huge, like playing the Hammersmith Apollo. And I don't think watching it on the TV is best way to judge the crowd size. Hasn't any reviewer listed the crowd size number?

Not so sure about that though. Pops was right at the front by Slash. She said the crowd got really tight halfway through as more people came forward and started to push in front of people already there. But that she didn’t see any mass exodus and it took quite a while to get through the crowds back out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she was right at the front, I don't think she would be the best judge on whether people left or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can see by the long shots last night that Guns had a great crowd. No doubts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so sure about that though. It was noticeable on TV that towards the end it was thinning out around the back, and there were big gaps opening up behind the amps or whatever the structures were about half way back. Considering Guns aren’t really going to be the average Glasto festival goers scene, and they were following out-and-out pop acts, I don’t think it’s a huge negative that it wasn’t rammed full. To be honest it’s the millions of people watching at home on BBC which are a bigger deal, whether there was 100,000 or 70,000 or 50,000 in the actual field isn’t really that important 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it gradual or all at once? Seems a bit strange to take that totally out of their live set, when all their peers use it extensively on lesser budgets (smaller venues)....I'm not asking for full Kiss/Motley but I think used well, like the sparks during November Rain ending...it would of looked awesome in 4K last night....any takes on why? I think it's probably a cost thing but maybe they also just think it's a cheap move and the music should do talking? Was it 2019 when the pyro disappeared first? I can't remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BBC review said there were notably less people watching than there were Arctic Monkeys and that Lizzo drew more people. I'm not surprised really- both of those are more traditional Glastonbury type acts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reason for being late. . 1. You're watching a movie/basketball game. 2. It's raining and you need your yellow coat, but it's nowhere to be found.

I dunno..the whole axl's high voice doesn't come through the mix argument is weird, as it seemed to be only happening at the start of lyric lines as if they forgot to fade up and that high not so powerful voice has been heard plenty high above other instruments in recent past streams, has it not? 😨 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl is absolutely beaming that they are playing Glastonbury. He thought it was a big deal. You don't have to though😄 Disagreeing and having a different opinion is "ranting"?? Got it. Don't hear no beaming though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna listening to some of the crowd videos on YT for reference. Actually hopefully, as good as the shots were, being live they miss some cool moments from time to time. So a combo edit with crowd footage occasionally interspersed would be sweet. Any active editors doing these kinda things in the GNR fandom these days? Who was the dude that made those pro looking live edits with the cool filters, like music videos and then they all got pulled by the band or whatever....2018 time...anyone remember ?
