Title: Brisbane show June 20th
Post by: StradlinRose on June 19, 2007, 11:00:10 PM
Anyone going?

Question: is it acceptable for me to wear my appetite t-shirt?

It has a group photo of the original band on the back.

Or will Axl throw me out if he sees it?  ;D

Anyways, looking forward to the show, will be good.  : ok:

Actually I've decided that it's not even at "classic" status anymore, it's "iconic!"  Plus vintage styles always look cooler than the new ones. Just wear the damn shit and have a fantastistic time, my friend

I'd gladly wear a 'new'Gunners shirt, but there aren't any anywhere (apart from online, but shipping to Aus is a killer)... That's why I plan to grab a few tour shirts at the shows! So the old shirts are what we have at the moment.

yeah i'm going.  Been waiting ten years for this, so absolutely i'll be there.  got my water, got my pills.  all ready.

Post by: estebanf on June 20, 2007, 12:58:17 AM
I dont see any problem in wearing an AFD tshirt... that album belongs to the band you're going to see perform. Axl Rose himself has the AFD skull logo tattooed in his arm.

Now, it would be very different (and pathetic) if you start screaming the old band members name to Axl, asking ''where are they'' and all that shit, just to try to be smartass. In that case, you should be kicked out from the show for sure.

I mean... it depends on the intention... if you're going to the show to enjoy it, to live an incredible experience showing your pride for GNR wearing that t-shirt, COOL. If you're wearing that t-shirt just to show how much you dislike the current bandmembers > not cool at all.

No offence, but do you honestly need pills to enjoy the experience of a GN'R concert?

I plan to be sober at the shows this weekend so I can try to take in as much as possible. I'll try to leave the drinking and partying until after the shows.

8.30PM - Rose Tattoo are 4 songs in.
8.31PM - Twister and aussie_axl (mygnrforum guys) have met up - kingwillie and co (more mygnrforum guys) are in listening to Rose Tattoo and are "too lazy" to come out. Pretty good reception for Rose Tattoo.

9.28PM - Seb is on and "kicking ass"
9.40PM - Seb says that tonight's crowd "kicks the shit out of last night's crowd"
9.46PM - Sebastian kicks a water bottle in the crowd. The pit is "going off".

Yeah, that's very cool, but how do you get your cameras in there in the first place?
Security are checking people on the way in so you can't get that stuff past them.


Title: Re: Brisbane show tonight!
Post by: stolat on June 20, 2007, 08:13:15 AM
And, if they're only allowed for Baz, then after he gets off everyone will have to line up again and hand over their stuff. This means the show will start very late.........

Tape it to your leg... :hihi:

I'm sure that they're just being lenient on those who've snuck cameras in. I don't know exactly what they said, but I'm assuming that security basically told those up front that they could take pictures of Baz but to hold off when Guns came on. I'm NOT 100% sure of this, but it's the impression I got from the text message.

I doubt very much that they'll bother taking cameras from people during Guns unless they see the people actually taking photos with them.

At every gig at Acer Arena that I've been to they've had metal detectors and strong security, so I'd say chances of sneaking cameras in at Sydney on the weekend are very slim. I think the only way to get past this is to have a camera phone which can record good video and audio, because I know they let your phones in.

10.02PM: Seb is going on about free porn
10.12PM: Seb says "If you want to fight, get the fuck out!" Crowd goes nuts!
10.20PM: "Song you don't understand... crowd going off and loving Baz"
10.30PM: I Remember You, crowd is singing along
10.37PM: Baz thanks Brisbane and then busts into Youth Gone Wild
10.42PM: Baz is done, he said he loved it. Beach ball is going around the crowd.

I had a friend stick a camera in a hidden side pocket of my bag when we went to Pearl Jam. We got the bag in because it had medical supplies in it (insulin) and I needed it during the show. :hihi:

From aussie - the crowd response so far has been good towards the new songs. He's also "lost 3 litres of water" and he's cramping up. Nice.

12.40PM: Crowd is drowning out Axl during November Rain

12.46PM: IRS

12.51AM: IRS is a bit lukewarm... I think everyone is stuffed, lol.

Great set list, looking forward to some reviews.
Some real highlights there. I hope somebody managed to record Ron's solo from start to finish.

Seem to have been on stage for a long time tonight and the crowd sounds like the best yet over here. Congrats Brisbane.

What about Axl shouting "Aussie Aussie"?

Is that a question about whether or not they actually did the chant or are you wondering why that wasn't mentioned in previous posts?

Anyway, I'm sure they would have chanted tonight, why skip arguably the most 'australian' state? lol
Though I guess if bbf performed a guitar solo of the anthem maybe they decided to skip the chant. Either way, it is bloody exciting.

Just got home from first ever GN'R concert. Quick thoughts because it is late.

Sebastian Bach was excellent. Really has the crowd in his hands.

1/2 hour later GN'R came on. A couple of Appetite openers and the crowd was loving it, cheering on their rock hero. Then for me the plot got lost a little... a couple of new songs without mentioning they are new and everyone started to fall asleep, he could of at least said we are gonna play some new songs so hold tight.. and really no crowd interaction. Baz blew him away there. Solos really broke momentum of the show. Then a bit of a come back. SCOM was good, Patience, Bumblefoots solo was very very good with Back In Black and Aussie Anthem. My Michelle duet was brilliant. Paradise City very good to close out, went off but methinks everyone a little tired.

Maybe crowd was down a little because everyone had to drive (it ain't in city), and a work night.. and only one little bar open!!

But all in all good and glad I can say i've seen 'em live. They need an album though to get these new songs out there, no-one knew them. But maybe they need to tour to gel as a group first.

Highlights :
Baz.
Jungle (and the first 2-3 songs got the crowd pumping)
Sweet Child
Bumblefoot Solo
My Michelle Duet
Paradise City


Nighty night.

It has a group photo of the original band on the back.

Or will Axl throw me out if he sees it?? ;D

Anyways, looking forward to the show, will be good.? : ok:

^^going back to the originally -1st- post of this topic:
the Tshirt hopefully didnt get you in any trouble....old band on the back should not have seen by Axl or the new band normally. cause you look with the AFD front to the stage, yeah? they cant care probably anyway as its still THE gnr album in history. and seeing 3/4 of AFD album being played there (+ ycbm and NR being written that time aswell)...it surely must have fit in this show? : ok:

Do what i did.  I had my Appatite shirt over a New GnR shirt.  If anyone bitches, you can take one off. 
I also wear my SIGNED bandana and a pair of shorts so everyone can see the tattoo on my leg.  And i drive my jeepage with my "GNR LIES" (VA, look me up) license plate. 

Im gloating about my bandana.
But my new thing is that all signatures will now be on my back so i can get them tattood the next day.  im excited for them to come around again....  i should have done it in New York.

afew little things i noticed!!
at the end of November Rain, Axl finished it with the intro : ok: ?he kept his eye on Ron to let him know he was jammin' it out!!

at the end of LALD and i think...Nightrain, Axl was ALL smiles and gave an evil laugh!!

Axl mentioned he and Baz party'd in the building 'till 8.30 in the mourning, and thought......'maybe it was time to go home' ?: ok: :beer: ? ?said a heap of stuff and his hangover felt like a fuckin' truck backed over his head' : ok: : ok:


Baz stopped Monkey Business when it kicked in to stop a fight, i think at the end of the song he had em' thrown out, Baz had the crowd chant GET THE FUCK OUT to him!! :beer:

What a fuckin awesome show  :o :o :o :o :o :o

Axl's voice was fantastic and they had the volume CRANKED !!!!!!!
Highlights 4 me and wife - the whole show - it was surreal seeing Gn'R on stage  :o :o :o :o

WTTJ - Axl sounded great but we missed the scream due to the hang over I spose
OTGM & Nightrain went fuckin off. IRS sounds really good live and Better had a different part in it where BH's kick ass solo ends on the leak. No CD but and I was really looking forward to hearing it but no big deal - next time  ;) I didnt know that Maddy had drum machines going for most of it - Frank only kicks in to the chorus and stuff. Axl seemed to be in a good mood and even joked "At least he started on time tonight" as well as the fuckstick who threw the beer at him last night. Bumblefoot is in a class of his own in Gn'R, the screens showing him cuttin it up on the fretless guitar were ace.
Once the CD drops Gn'R will be fuckin huge again - the cross section of ages in the crowd was unbelieveable - young, old (me), really fuckin old - everyone fired up !

ClintroN, what do you mean by finished November Rain with the intro? Did he play the old intro when he finished the song?
oh, and Axl's voice raspy all the time or not yet? I think his voice isn't totally ready to the whole world tour though.


Title: Re: Brisbane show June 20th
Post by: waxlrick on June 21, 2007, 02:26:01 AM
Review,

Ok Axl really brought his A game tonight. He was pullin out all the moves right from the get go.  It was the Axl we all know and love. As has been mention he was really hung over. He said that due to the prevoius night not going really well that "Like an idiot, I decided to drown my sorrows". When Baz came out he asked him over the mic if he was just as hung over? Baz said he was rolling around on the floor in Axl's dressing room at 8.30am. They did go on earlier tonight. About 11.30pm. This made such a difference and I think it was the right thing to do especially after the previous nights developments.

His voice was awsome again and considering he was backing up from the previous night when he didn't hold back vocally, and badly hungover, it really demonstrates what a freak he is. I dont care what anyone says, his voice is better than ever live. I was sitting half way back on the balcony (with my Wife) tonight so I really got the full effect of the sound. I can honestly say that it was without doubt the LOUDEST rock concert if have ever been to. Which is how it should be for GNR. Our ears were ringing even at that distance!!!

It was a sellout so the crowd was considerably larger but even more so than I expected. The crowd was into the whole concert and everyone applauded the new songs even though 99.5% wouldn't known what the fuck they were singing. All of the new songs have such good beats that people were bopping along regardless.

The band are great. Sure they are not the original band but they are the next best thing. They play tight and the solos e.t.c that they play not only showcase their skill but more importantly give Axl a chance to rest his voice between songs. Which I can appreciate since just about every song requires him to sing loud and at his full register. I don't know of any other singer who does it like Axl. From what I can see the band are wearing the same wardrobe as 2006 which still looks cool. Axl looks fit. I think he is at his best weight. Not too thin like the earlier days but slimmer the RIR3. Facially, he looks like he did during the Illusion era when he had the facial hair. This look suites him best. As for the rest of the band I think they could all use a little extra meat. Forteus, Bubblefoot, tommy (looks sickly) and Dizzy look so fuck'in skinny. Bumble foot and Tommy really seemed to have lost weight. I am comparing Tommy to how he looked on the RIR3 footage though. Bubblefoots blow dried hair look makes him look like Ritchy Sambora. Not good. He has gotta put some gel in that bitch.

Had GNR dropped one of the new songs as a single before this tour I think it would have made a huge difference for the crowd but in saying that everyone seemed to be into the show. People did start leaving 3/4 through the set and there was a mass exitist after Night Train when Axl said good night. But this was mainly due to the fact that it was a school night. I paid attention to the people leaving and it was mostly couples, indicting to me that either one may have had to work the next day.

All in all this was the type of show I have waited 14 years to see. Axl delivered. My wife loved it too. It was funny because I have force fed her GNR since the day we met and she knows all the words to the new songs and was singing along with me while the old school fans didn't have a clue......unfortunately for them.

When the house lights came on a couple of older birds behind us were crying and saying "we need more Axl". A fitting ending I thought. I will guarantee this, if and when the new album comes out, just about everyone who went last night will buy it. The show had a great vibe.

Next stop Sydney. Yeeh Haaa!!!

 : ok:

oh, and Axl's voice raspy all the time or not yet? I think his voice isn't totally ready to the whole world tour though.

Yep. He played the new intro at the start. But finished with an older intro I think it was the 2002 one? Then as he stood up from the piano he started singing into the mic in a jazzy voice. It sounded like the tune of "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side" but I think he changed the lyrics and was singing about Ron or Tommy. Cant quite remember? Sounded cool. Then he said to the crowd "That was very advant garde". It's the new Matallica. Crowd laughed.

Don't worry about his voice!! I have a very finely tuned ear to Axls voice. I know his bad shows, I know his good shows. I know his bad years, I know his good years. His voice is better than ever. I dont know what he has done, but he has developed beyond what it has ever been. He may still have the occassional bad day and eventhough he is a freak of nature, he is still human and it will fatigue from time to time. But not on this tour baby!

Your right about it being a COMPLETELY different experience live...he sounds 10000 times better in person then on any bootleg.  As much as I hate hes not backing his album and actually talking about it at least a little, I still love the fact that hes touring and for the most part staying in a good mood night in and night out.

Ryan's Review:June 20th Brisbane Entertainment Centre

Last Time Gnr was in australia , I was 4 years old, and if Age is an issue people, I wont tell if you wont...


OK, I let my motel at 7:40...
Got to the venue, grabed my seat, and Rose Tattoo came on at 8:10...

Let me just say, the speakers sounded great, and very clear, and the dome was excellent, carried the sound very well...
Old Angry Anderson, had a 50 minute set, and during each song , he
talked about how proud of Australia he was, and how proud he was to be an Australian, and talked about how great Adelaide was and the Eureaka? stockade...
and said something along the lines of "Its great to be An Australian, and for all you non Australians you are more then welcome here..."

Understand that he was drinking beer throughout his set, but he looked as if he was enjoying himself saying things like ' we are going to create history tonight, but nontheless, he had a great spirit, and the man is admiral for all the work he does....., on and off the stage...


Sebby Bach came on About 9-9:15, and the guy was having a fucking ball...
He talked about how much he loved Australia, and said something similar to" Im not good at math, but between Axl and myself, We have waited to play in brisbane about 30 Fucking years.....

And the crowd errupted as they do....
throughout, about half way through his set, some asshole in the gold ga standing section (the front mosh) was causing fights between the people around him...
Bach said "stop the show, STOP THE FUCKING SHOW" as the band stopped, Bach said " what are you trying to do, we are all having fun, and you motherfucker is causing shit... Then bach got more pissed... and said "which motherfucker is it , and everyone around him was pointing at him""..

anyway, bach just continued, and then 10 minutes later the same douch bag continued, and Bach stopped again and he said "Get this cocksucker out of here" so the security actually decided to do their job the second time round, and kicked him out, and as he was being "excorted " to the parking lot, bach replied to him "have fun cocksucker in the carparking lot, Bye Bye"...

Crowd supported bach 100% and they all clapped , cheered etc...


Finally, after Baz's set, the wait was about 40-50 minutes off hand (bout 11:15)

then

GUNS N FUCKING ROSSSSSSSSESSSS'''
Do you know where the fuckkk you areeeeee", axls infamous powerful screech erupted the total sellout crowed...
and Everyone just went off.... Ive never seen so many people go so fucking ballistic over 8 words in the english dictionary....

Jungle was ace... and Axl sounded between raspy and good screechy, like husky, perfect voice for the song...


After ISE , and Brownstone, Axl said before Fincks solo...
I woke up here at the venue, about 9:00 today, after last nights show,
and I thought to myself, its time to go fucking home... and when I did Jungle just a few minutes ago, it felt like a fucking big truck running over my head..."


Then the usual setlist, you could be mine...
out to get me, scom... etc, Axl sounded a little off cue , like when he said 2 words of the song quickly, then just saying it one word slowly at a time....

Must of been his ear piece fucking up/hangover who knows, anyways he sounded great....

Then Bumblefoots solo, he did the AUSSIE ANTHEM... really got the crowed going, and everyone was loving it, then he did Back in Black and dont cry, to which he received a warm welcome....


Things I noticed, was the new songs that were played,
the blues, madagascar, better, irs,
People didnt really partake to very well...
They just kinda stood clueless as they watched the heavy rocking bridge in the middle of better....

I think mabye, once the single of Better drops, and the other new songs, people will appreciate more of the new material been played live...

Overall, the Audiences participation , like in Knocking wasn't that good...
Like when axl said "are you going to help me out" people just stood their, and didnt even reply....

Remined me of the rock am ring crowed..
I hope its different in sydney, and Im sure it will be...

Overall, the concert was fucking class, Axls vocals was that high up in the mix, that it was near ear piercing, and they did 2 encores, madagascar and paradise city...

No rocket queen unfortunatly, and no twat, however it was a great night, and it finished 1:30 in the morning, to which I had to run outside and get a taxi before the 1000's of people did...

Overall , It was one of the best days of my life, and I just hope the fucking sydney crowd are better, because on the taxi drive back, I had to share it with 2 people, to which they replied with "the new songs werent that good, they dont sound like gnr,"

and I thought to myself, fucking idiots havent even heard a good demo of it, like myself...


anyways, hope you enjoyed my review,
one more thing, Baz said during "BY MY SIDE" song, EVERYONE PUT YOUR FUCKING MOBILE PHONE LIGHTS ON, IM RECORDING THIS FOR MYSPACE, I WANNA SEE ALL YOUR PHONES' which people only had out for like 50 seconds lol...

Gotta love that man, he tries to get the crowed going, even if they werent that enthusiastic...


GUNS N FUCKING ROSES...

WELCOME TO SYDNEY IN 2 DAYS MO'FOS

Thats about right. How does it differ from the other posts? Someone threw a drink. Axl got pissed off and let it effect his mood for the first 3/4 of the concert.

The concert that he had the drink thrown at him was on a tuesday night, the next night he was hungover and did an awesome show. He said he was hungover form a bad night the night before. Everyone is comparing 2 different concerts.
