Very cool pic from that point of view but watching a stream from where normal people are the story is somewhat different.

Surely it could be sold out but plenty of room in the back of general admission and in the stands not so close to the stage.

In any case, seems to be very good atmosphere over there.

I've seen the pictures, and that's perfectly normal for a sold-out show.

You can't pack people to fill all the space from end to end. People will naturally move closer to the stage as well, so it will be packed in the front, leaving empty space behind.

Like this in the golden circle:

I'm sure the band who had a personal relationship with Chris feels differently about paying tribute to their friend.

You're free to disagree though.

once or twice playing the tribute song is fine not over n over

Black Hole Sun far replant, tribute has been made, now it's time for Pretty Tied Up :hihi:

It seems they plan on playing it for the European leg at least.

I love the song as I mentioned earlier, but not all the time to give someone a tribute . . . Are the songs that fans really wanted to hear.

Is this one correct?

1. It's So Easy
2. Mr. Brownstone
3. Chinese Democracy
4. Welcome to the Jungle
5. Double Talkin' Jive
6. Better
7. Estranged
8. Live and Let Die
9. Rocket Queen
10. You Could Be Mine
11. Attitude[with "You Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory" intro]
12. This I Love
13. Civil War

Are you at all these concerts though?

How does it affect your life?

I am hungry because I get them more in my opinion.

Guns N ' Roses can go in the footsteps of The Cure and create three alternative setlist, more to learn, but the fans were delighted after a hundred times!

The way I look at it is, things cannot be catered to you personally 100%. As soon as you are ok with that, little things like this will not bother you as much.

I'm glad that threesome is together again, I'm glad that they see that still play, but I have a huge hungry . . .

I'm sentimental for old times, perhaps because certain matters does not accept . .

I would like to for once see the Locomotive.

Axl, Slash and Duff are back together.

They are playing stadiums around the world.

Right now they're the biggest rock band in the world.

They're playing fuckin' Coma.

They put on a 2.5 hr show.

BHS being played is somehow ruining all of this??

Of course, that does not

Why this reaction after every damn concert then, just let it go then.

I know that I have no influence on what they play. But it just annoys me that they play all the time the same . . . I do not mean hits because it is normal that they have to be, but there are songs that you can simply go ahead and replaced every concert . . .

And you've said that before. You're entitled to your own opinion no doubt. But just some advice, people get tired if someone keeps repeating their complaints.

i would love to here breakdown locomotive or dead horse dust n bone

As would most of us here I think.

Anyone caught what they played after Sweet Child O' Mine? Out Ta Get Me?

how u doing will long time no see

They did both? That's cool, hope they do that in London as well.

Wow!So it could be on every show! DC and P : ok:

Thanks to all of tonight's streamers.  Youze didn't make it easy but still very much appreciated.

Spirit I look forward to reading your thoughts on the London gig... of all the posters here you deserve it as much as anybody!

This Madrid show looks like it was A plus.

Can't wait to see the show again come the fall.

Can someone please post the setlist?  :)

They've also played Paradise City? oh come on, that song is like, 40 or something, don't bore us  :rant:

That's a fkn amazing shot its crazy  that just by having Slash and Duff back has increased demand to see GnR by 1000% even though they have no new material to promote, I hope they don't go down the same route as The Police and Stone Roses by just touring and not putting out anything new only a greatest hits ,at the very least we should get a live album/DVD as they filmed the La shows professionally last year ,going  by this reunion tour there is a huge market for them to put out a new album and they have single handedly rescued rock music from the brink of extinction in the mainstream which has been taken over by manufactured disposable pop and Rnb rubbish.BHS went down a storm in Slane it was one of the highlights of the gig it was an amazing gesture to Chris whose impact on music should be kept alive.

Thanks man! I'm really looking forward to this, should be a blast. My first show of this tour.

I'm tempted to see an arena show in the US this fall as well.

Well if you come to MSG... drinks on me!

Sounds good!  :beer:

Have to wait a bit to see if it fits into my work schedule first.

Completely agree
GUNS N' ROSES is finally back after soooo many years of disbandin'
this pic (sold-out stadiums) would be impossible to see with any line-up Axl had all these years.
Let's enjoy the guys are back and rockin millions and millions of asses ;)

So BHS

Is now a staple?

Awesome show. One of the best GN'R shows I've been to for sure.

People in the crowd around me were losing their minds, band sounded great and were super loud - and the setlist was awesome.

Yes Will, they played OTGM!

Yes.

What do you think of Axl's performance tonight, generally through the whole show?

What was their best song performance as a band?

What song did the crowd react to the most?

I couldn't care less about about how the band or crowd sounded for a show I wasn't even close to going to

What I care most about is

This band is about to come back to north amrerica for the second time in as many years and is on leg 7 roughly of this tour and I have seen or heard nothing new

I have heard the excuse wait for the whole world to see this act theyvyou can start to complain   Really?

So in aug when they play in Denver and its the exact same show.   Glorious!

Fucking incredible show. Just got back...it's 2 am. The best I've seen GNR played, ever.

I've never seen Axl so happy and so intense. He was so in the zone, absolutely incredible. Slash was flawless all night long with exception of Jungle, seems to me the guitar got out of tune somewhere in the bridge. Other than that, he fucking nailed it. His solo part sounded a lot like "Johnny be good" and then lead into "The GodFather theme"

I was down in the pit, so it got pretty intense there. Not one single soul left the building until the last note of Paradise City was played. No one. Show ended at 0:10 am (started at 9:21 pm, I can't believe they were early).

Highlights were so many; Double talking, Estranged, Coma, Rocket Queen, LALD, YCBM...the biggest one though was probably seeing Axl, Slash and Duff sharing the stage again. I 'can't simply describe how that felt to me.

People fucking lost their minds with LALD, YCBM, Jungle....and the obvious PC. But i was really impressed how everyone around me stayed till the very last note and enjoyed every minute of the show.

Man...what a show. My back is killing me now. This is what happens when yo spend 3 hours at the pit singing and jumping like crazy at 41. Kids, don't try to do that! My back will probably complain tomorrow, but I do not really care tonight.


On a side note, Richard and Slash also played a little of The Allman Brother's "Melissa" right before Don't Cry in tribute to Greg Allmans' recent passing. I always liked that song, so kinda cool they improvised it. I was also surprise they played Don't Cry and Patience. I was not expecting it.

Exactly my thoughts

The best GNR Show in my life, band sounded really loud, I was like ten meters from the stage in front of the Nightrain horn and it was awsome, first show for me outside my country (Venezuela) and in both shows GNR have played there they did not play Don't Cry, for me was a special moment when a I hear the first notes of the song.

Thanks for the great review, really got me even more excited about next week!
