notes: Special guest performance by Sebastian Bach. Rare performance of 'Back Off Bitch,' which Axl says was written in 1981. Axl mentions how when they toured through Toronto in the past with The Cult & Iron Maiden that AFD was banned so the audience didn't know most of the songs. Axl says that Phil Lynott from Thin Lizzy took the place of hid father when he was little. Then he says how Slash had to pay the band $1000 the other night to open the show with 'Nightrain.' Before 'Estranged,' Axl lets the audience know that the last train leaving the venue is in 5 minutes!

During 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door,' Axl says, "No bullshit, you guys are one of the most enthusiastic crowds I've seen in a long time!" After 'Welcome To The Jungle,' Axl mentions that they have a curfew and will be playing straight through the allotted time without any encores.

07.16.91 - Tacoma Dome, Tacoma, WA

Axl holds up a 'Fuck the St. Louis Police Department' banner that the Tacoma Police Department gave the band! The show is stopped temporarily after 'Rocket Queen' because a fan threw something onstage. Axl stage dives after Paradise City, then takes his microphone and "thanks the faggot who tried to take his pants off"!
