Surely, there must be a reason to suddenly drop one clear staple. What and why? Must of been a venue timing issue.... For the length of this show Why in the world would they drop a cover song and not replace it with a original song. I cant seem them just cutting the total number of songs out for no good reason. That being said, I am surprised they actually cut The Seeker out and left Don't Cry in Title: Re: [Updates] February 14, 2017 Melbourne, VIC, Australia Post by: AdZ on February 14, 2017, 11:37:50 AM Man, these Australian shows look awesome.
Title: Re: [Updates] February 14, 2017 Melbourne, VIC, Australia Post by: C0ma on February 14, 2017, 02:35:19 PM With the two keyboard/synth players, I would love to hear Angus and GnR take a crack at 'It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock and Roll)'... They can tackle the bag pipe sound, plus it allows Angus to play it without it being AC/DC doing the song without Bon.

Pretty disappointing that they started late, missed some staples of the current tour and cut the encore short for close to seventy five thousand fans. Aside that, great night. Axl was impressive even on songs were he is known to struggle like SCOM and NR. He was brilliant on Don't Cry and Civil War, as was Slash. Those two songs were surprisingly the stand outs and I put it down to the chemistry of the reunited band. KOHD and TIL were memorable also. Coma just started in Adelaide and it made me envious. |
