Title: July 19th, 2018 Oslo, Norway Post by: Grizzly on July 18, 2018, 10:28:08 AM I don't know if this thread is already started, couldn't find any, so....
Well, tomorrow will be special. Here I sit at the age of 43 with two kids and remembering all the good times and good songs this band has given me. All those times the songs from AFD gave me goosebumps and instant boost of self esteem, which comes quite handy at the age of 16. I still feel that today, just the sound of the opening of "Out ta get me" can make me feel like I could conquer any challenge that I may face. This music has played a big part of my life, and tomorrow will be so, I don't know, fulfilling. Can't wait to share the enthusiasm with 30.000 other fans in Oslo, watching THE band with that magic lineup. I hope for a good evening, a good time, good music, and a band that is on fire! Deepest respect to the band that can play a 2-3 hour set for so many nights and make every show special for their audience. 8) Title: Re: July 19th, 2018 Oslo, Norway Post by: Nytunz on July 18, 2018, 12:27:09 PM I feel you!!

Really looking forward to this show, and was excited with the reviews of the Tallin show. My first live show with them was supposed to be in 1991 in Oslo. Remember arriving at the trainsstation in the morning and people there told us it was cancelled. (Waaay before internet and cellphones for all :o ) Joke was on us. Worst day of my life. But, water under the bridge, long forgotten, and Axl, you are forgiven.... ;D Gonna be a blast. Have fun all who is going : ok: -Eirik Title: Re: July 19th, 2018 Oslo, Norway Post by: Lord Stan on July 19, 2018, 03:25:36 AM I'm here and I just realised I have no idea where the venue is.

Nothing wrong with the band but I didn't know Norwegians behave like this. Title: Re: July 19th, 2018 Oslo, Norway Post by: Michael on July 19, 2018, 04:53:07 PM They're just making sure they can come home before chaos erupts ;D

It did cross my mind if the locals were leaving because of public transport but that wasn't the case. There are buses going to all directions and surely they would have known it. I just took my chances hoping it would work out and it did :peace:
Maybe we will never find out the reason. Title: Re: July 19th, 2018 Oslo, Norway Post by: Spirit on July 19, 2018, 08:42:38 PM Back at the apartment.

I just took my chances hoping it would work out and it did :peace: Maybe we will never find out the reason. Transport was available long after the end of the concert yes. Did not see anyone leaving from my spot though. Had a good overview of the venue, and it can’t have been a considerable amount as the venue looked pretty much packed from start to finish.

down the Maiden plane" :hihi: Title: Re: July 19th, 2018 Oslo, Norway Post by: Insomnis on July 20, 2018, 06:18:07 AM What a positive experience, I did not have high expectations towards Axl vocal performance. But it works much better live than on YouTube. The sound wasn't perfect but not much worse than I'm used to. SOYL was a letdown, such a rockin' song but the sound was all muddy on that one. I'm not a fan of the seeker, but damn that was rockin' live. The venue was sold out first day tickets was on sale, unlike back in -93 when there was plenty of space. The Golden circle seemed more like golden 1/3, I estimate they put the barriers about 50m back. It's nice to be up front with good space and not 40000 people pushing at your back.
