Some notes about this show

This show has been reported as the worst of the tour and Axl has copped plenty of very negative reviews in the Brisbane press over this performance. It was definitely a disappointing spectacle but this recording is really nice quality and proof that most of the bad reviews included false quotes and complete lies about what actually happened on the night. An interesting example of, ?One of those nights,? as Axl said about this show.

To properly understand what really happened, a bit of perspective and backstory is required.

The Gunners last played Australia in January 1993 and when this Chinese Democracy tour went on sale a few months back, most cities sold out really quick. The 12,000 seat Brisbane Entertainment Centre was no exception selling out on the first day. A second show was announced but strangely the extra show was scheduled for the night before the first announced show. This new show sold poorly with the venue barely half full. This was after half-priced tickets were offered and many free tickets being given away to pad out the numbers. So apart from the handful of true Gunners tragics who went to both Brisbane shows, many in the crowd seemed to be those who were just curious and those on the freebie list. By their reaction, they certainly didn?t know what they were in for when the decided to attend a Gunners show.

I missed Rose Tattoo so can?t comment but the energy from the crowd during Sebastian Bach?s set was underwhelming to say the least. The venue had advised attendees that GNR would start at 10.30pm or 11.15 at the latest but by 11.45 with no sign of the show commencing, the crowd had become very restless and were booing each new song that was played over the PA.

It has since been reported that when Rose Tattoo opened proceddings, Axl was still in Melbourne - 900 miles south of Brisbane. Apparently his Lear jet left Melbourne airport at around this time while the GNR band sat backstage in Brisbane waiting for the man to arrive. The 2 hour flight plus the minimum 30 minute drive from Brisbane airport to the venue explained why the band didn?t come on til 11.55pm.

Possibly because he was napping, the lighting guy missed his cue and instead of walking out in darkness, Axl entered the stage all lit up. He walked to the front and before singing a note a punter up very close tossed a full cup of water all over him. Axl couldn?t have been showered better if 100 people had attempted the shot. As the band cranked into the intro for Jungle, Axl looked immediately deflated and extremely pissed off by what had just happened. Standing up close, it was very obvious to me that the only thought running through his mind was, ?this show?s over, I?m outta here?.

He totally deadpanned the opening lines to the song (listen to the sample) then when another drink sailed past his face, Axl stopped the show to let the crowd know what the deal was. It was all pretty innocent and Axl may not have realised that having a drink thrown over him was culturally a very Australian response to being made to wait so long for the show to start. We?re an egalitarian bunch down here and no one is prone from a bit of disrespect when they deserve it.

So the show went on but Axl was largely not into it and only going through the motions. He smiled and danced a few times but his performance was largely a raincheck.

The lack of energy from Axl naturally resulted in a lack of responding energy from the crowd and so it snowballed for the whole 2 hour performance. Many people left throughout the show, mainly during the new songs, and there was a collective sense of disappointment every time that Axl ran off stage mid-song and during the four solos.

I've given this show the title "Let's See What Can Go Wrong Next" as Axl
said this in introducing Ron Thal's solo. It was an apt description of the night.

Here?s one (hack) report of the show-
?Axl Sees Red After Fan Throws Drink at Him?

It?s worth noting that the following night was a fantastic performance in front of a capacity crowd of true Gunners fans. Amazing how the same setlist played in front of two totally different crowds produces such vastly different peformances.

Some notes about this recording

Recorded and torrented by audiowhore

Lineage = SP-CMC-8 > Samson PM-4 > Denecke phantom power > Minidisc (Sony MZ-NH1 Hi-MD) > Adobe Audition > FLAC > Dime

Recorded from the front section of the floor. I was mostly under the left speaker stack looking at the stage. Very nice sound quality, minimal audience noise throughout. Listen to the samples below.

Get Toast.

Um, I would just like to say as far as the 'water throwing' incident goes - that was just plain rude.
Not all aussies have such bad manners.  :rant:

So true, but those fuckwits that night in Brisbane made us look like a bunch of yobos, like the Australian episode of the simpsons. And that night it wasn't just a few dickheads there it was the majority.


 :peace:

Wow sounds like it was a real shit crowd this night in Brisbane.

Anyway great recording, thanks to audiowhore for recording and sharing. : ok: :beer:

Could someone please put up the Ron solo  and the new songs so they play on Windows media player?? :beer:

It will be easier and faster if you install a FLAC plugin for Windows Media Player:

DOWNLOAD > http://www.illiminable.com/ogg/

With this plugin, you'll be able to play Ogg Vorbis, Ogg Speex, Ogg Theora, Ogg FLAC and native FLAC in WMP.

thanks estebanf

Axl signing jungle in the begining is the funniest shit i've ever heard

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

WAHHH  :crying: ITS NOT FLAC WAHHH  :crying:

Who gives a shit, its low quality anyway... I just wanted to see how the band sounded, and i've already deleted it... Eaiser just to download the whole thing in one shot...

learn it i hate mp3 i always will i do not care who likes them when it comes to trading mp3 kills trading .
i know they make mp3 original cd's those are trade that is fine
but when it comes to making mp3 of non originals it sux because it kills trading these are traded around and gets in to the circle of trades it makes it bad for the flac traders because they get these cdr.
i know some do not trade these and i know that some do is my point

I get your point, but for some who just wanna listen and dispose right after.. MP3s are great

never great period

We know you hate them. Everyone stop bitching about it. Timebomb, you can't stop people from using mp3.

Only if he could  :hihi:

Mp3 is fine. If you dont like it, go to DIME and download the Flacs. I dont trade so and dont care.
