July 10 - Malakasa, Greece - Terravibe (Rockwave Festival)

[Christos AG]

anyone heard whos goin to be opening for GUNS here?

we dont know yet.

anyway my dream for the supporting band is STONE SOUR   

I think that the supporting band will be a Greek one... we ll see...

i hope not....
i would prefer stone sour as mean_machine said.
or just another non-greek band

well coming from england i just wanna see gnr but it would be kinda cool to see a greek band playing so im up for it

Well, your wish is our command.

You'll probably see a Greek band, or two...

INCREDIBLE SHOW!!!

Axl was in the best mood i ever saw him, talking and smiling all the time, one of his best vocal performances, even better than dublin, something that i didnt think was possible. The band Ripped as always! the replacement drummer does a very good job, although he is not Brain. Robin was out of control! when ron did dont cry the audience was singing the whole song.. Better, Madagascar and The Blues were amazing.

IZZY joined the band for patience, nightrain and paradise city!!! i got goosebumps when Axl hugged him welcoming him on stage...everybody was chanting : Izzy-Izzy...

Axl and the band also did the first verse of light my fire by the doors.

when Axl was introducing the band he said "i still dont know who the fuck i am"

during kohd when Axl  saw Christos' sign "Greece loves GNR" Axl read it and said "its officiated now but i am going to put you to a test" with the singalong part of kohd.

The setlist was the same as in Dublin, but the concert had a completely different feel.Both were amazing.

the intro for the Blues was ziggy stardust and before that there was a jam that reminded me of "under my thumb"

The crowd was at least 16-17.000.

i am not sure about the order but the songs that were played were :

Welcome to the jungle
its so easy
Mr Brownstone
Live and Let Die
light my fire (first verse by the whole band and axl)
Sweet child o' mine
knockin on heaven's door
you could be mine
band jam
ziggy stardust intro(dizzy)
the blues
november rain
outta get me
beautiful(richard-robin)
my michelle
better
madagascar
dont cry (ron)
patience (with Izzy)
nightrain(with Izzy)

Paradise city (with Izzy)

Axl was  making jokes all the time and at one point he said "i dont know if we're having fun or we're just retards"

in the end he thanked the audience many times during the final bows..he seemed very happy with the crowd's response and (i think) with the amount of the crowd (lets not forget that the show was announced only 2 weeks ago)

[Shirell]

Thanks for the review.  Sounds like it was a great show!

[Jesse James]

man that was ONE HELLUVA NIGHT!!!

my body aches and my face wears a silly -almost stoned- smile of satisfaction....

top performance from the band and the crowd created a wonderful atmoshere....


...........thanx GNR.................................

[Lara]

That must have been the most incredible night of my life!     

I was there with Christos, blueheart, anythingoes and some other members from the GNR greek fanclub.

The show was amazing, the sound was perfect, Axl's voice was flawless, I was standing front row just 3 metres away from Axl and I even got to touch Finck    when he stepped down the stage in front of the crowd! Woohoo!

Izzy on stage was a highlight, I got misty-eyed when he and Axl hugged. They both looked like having a great time!

I'll post a review as soon as I get some rest, I only had 2,5 hours of sleep after the gig and I was standing for 8 hours!
