let me just add. before paradise citty Dizzy was ready to play Madagascar, but as i was told earlier they couldn't play as long as they wanted cuz of the organization of the festival, so they just did PC.
the show was great and the band jus went with the flow, no set list. that was amazing
and if u weren't there, u didn't know what happened really. cuz the show was brilliant!!!!!

I was there through the power of the internet. ?I am not talking about the sound mix here. ?Just talking about everything else. ?I don't need to be there to see Axl run out of breath all night and to listen to piss poor guitar solos do I?
Since we CAN give proper reviews thru TV screens it seems, I watched Japan 92 and Oklahoma 92 on bootleg last night and it was NOTHING compared to RIR5.
Thru half the set I couldnt even hear the guitar solos because of the stupid mixing, but Im sure you heard them???

The man is 44 years old, he isnt in his 20s anymore. And he ran out of breath a couple times, big fucking deal. Lets see you get up on stage and run around for 2 hours at the age of 44 and not lose your breath.
And I strongly disagree with you calling the solos "piss poor", I thought they were excellent.

It's good to see the journalist are finally starting to appreciate what a great band this is. It must have been one of the greatest GN'R performances ever! Axl was amazing, band was great and there was real chemistry in there. Easily the best performance by the new band.

I KNEW IT!
I don't know if you guys heard it, but I did hear someone saying just before Paradise: "Dizzy! Paradise!"
By the way, I like those reviews?

This is one or two reviews man.? Hardly enough to say it's getting great reviews.
I'm not sure how close you were to the stage, but we here in the states were up close and personal.? The sound quality sucked, but that aside, it was a horrible show in terms of Axl's singing.? He was out of breath on almost every song, he missed words on every song, he started Patience early.? We didn't neeed to be there to see this....it was no where near as good a performance as the 5 shows I have seen live.?
And unfortunately, last night proved that this band misses Slash in a huge way and that no one will be able to fill his shoes.? Those 3 guitarists they have pale in comparison to Slash (at least in a live setting).? Slash was a monster up there who commanded the stage....these guys were utterly forgetable.? Too many mediocre solos (guitar and drum).? Not a very good show really guys.
What a whiner
Who cares about your heart opening speech?
If you don't like it don't watch it and get over it. It sooooo simple but nooooo cuz if you don't u won't have anything to whine about
The hell with all of you whiners , get over 1987.
Whining frantically won't turn back time
True they did some crazy things they made me go like 'whoa heavy drugs' but as u could see they were having fun ?
If you wanna choose the entire set list including solos you should ring Slash and form you own Guns N Roses

the reason it seemed that he missed words in song is because the mic kept going on and off on the mix. I'll admit that he did seem out of breath at some points but it didn't make this a bad performance. Axl is older now and he does move a lot on stage so this won't be the last time you will see him trying to catch his breath on stage. So my sugggestion to you is to not even bother with this band anymore because you will never like their live performances. You would be better suited watching a band where the lead singer stands in one spot all day and is 25 yrs old. This isn't a young Axl anymore and Slash isn't young anymore either. I have seen VR and slash isn't the same on stage as he once was . Age hits a lead singer harder than it does a guitarists. Stamina and vocal chords age quicker than fingers . Just go watch another band and don't waste your time with this band. There are plenty of GNR fans that still like Axl's performances.

I think he means they need Slash
Oh sure Velvet Revolver is some real mind blowing solos

Like the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, Jimmy Buffet, and every other lead singer over 50 that rock the house?
Yeah I know I know people likes Axl's performance, they out of touch and in need of this to rock, because they have waitied so long they won't let themselved be disappoitned
I still think it sucked,

Yeah, I did, I was just about to say...
I even thought that I heard something like "Dizzy, just Paradise!",
at the time I thought that maybe he was ill or something, and didn't want to do an encore........
Now it makes sense.

You are a bit wierd man. You saw a stream on the net that had LOTS of sound difficoulties and you still make up your mind?
I'd say you decided that this would suck before you even saw the show..
So, do yourself a favour and pick up some old DVD's and stay offline watching them instead.

Aye, do some of you people think that it's a coincidence that the songs we had a decent mix for (November Rain, Out Ta Get Me, Nightrain...) sounded incredible...

OK, ?MINUS SOUND MIX, I am not even counting that for christ sakes...
this is why it sucked:
Axl ran out of breathe, ? screwed up Patience, ?started early on Paradise, the Solo's were god awful, the new guitar effects in Rocket Queeen were horrible, the set list was old and nostalgic, the energy wasn't there, ?
other than that it was AWESOME
I am not talking about sound, ?I recorded it on my Xm and it sounds fine.....the AOL feed sucked

Because it's stupid to hate a show that obviously rocked. Just ask anyone going to the show mate.
