Title: Wasn't GNR only scheduled for 1 hr 45 mins. to begin with?

I think I remember seeing that GN'R was only booked for a 1 hr/45 min show tonight at Rio - could explain the slightly shorter setlist.

The metro was closing at 2.45.

So, they had to finish before that time.

I don?t they were booked for only 1 hour and 45 minutes...

I remember, right before there was supposed to be an encore, a tech guy said, "Dizzy, Paradise only, Paradise Only."  I guess it was cut short for the train.

The band also had to leave early cause they had a flight to catch, so stop it with the conspiracy theories.

I'm not bitching or trying to start a conspiracy at all - I'm just trying to explain the shorter set for those who ARE bitching. The show kicked ass and I enjoyed it. (Watching the replay now)

Dude, if that was directed at me, I wasn't saying anything about a conspiracy.  Go watch the AOL thing, you'll hear the sound person or whoever tell Dizzy to only play Paradise.

according to someone who was there, they only played one encore because they had to finish up the show, that's probably why axl introduced the band in the middle of paradice city too, they were probably planning on playing madagascar and chinese democracy (or some other song) and doing band introductions after nightrain.
