Your GN'R highlights?

The budapest show this year 

[sesor]

as i've only seen gnr once, and that was last night, it has to of been last ngiht! omg it rocked, and when axl introduced izzy, i was sooo happy, and i coulda cried in patience, i very nearly did. it was so.....ahhh amazing.

[axlssis]

there have been too many to pick one.  it could be the day back in 1987, hanging out at the rainbow, slash came in with a n AFD cassette with a huge smile on his face, it was so cool, or maybe the first big arena show, I can't even remember where I saw them first outside of the strip, or last time with the old band, Dayton, Ohio, Jan 1992, i think of that show every time someone complains about late starting shows.  the show started at promply 1 am, it was snowing big time out side, parents that were outside waiting for hours for their kids to some out were pissed, but the fans were having a great time but the fans.  it was a killer show.  the hammerstein show in may was pretty significant for me.....not only was it a great show, but i couldn't help but think "axl is fucking back", and with Izzy too, it just made it even more special.

The first Vegas show was the most unreal of them all.  If you were scared before NYC, it was nothing like that year.  Everybody in line was checking each other's tickets to see if they were real.  Until the doors actually opened at midnight nobody knew if this was the real thing or not.  Nobody knew what Axl looked like...no new songs had been heard to date except for Oh My God 2 years before.  That was a crazy experience.....not only the show, but waiting in line to know if this was really going to happen.  Killer.

also, when i first really realsied how amaizng they were, i was staying at a friends house, and she put on welcome to the video's, and we watched it over and over all night, i already knew most of the songs on there, buti didnt know much gnr, but that ngiht, i realised how amaizng they were, i could feel it inside that it was gonna be something big, i can tell when i get obsessed wiht things befor eit happens, and from then on i've loved them lol

Standing there in Glasgow, completely knackered in the dark with my heart beating a mile a minute. Looking up and seeing shadows walk around the stage then hearing...


"DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE FUCK YOU ARE?" 

[slashisvr]

hey stop STOP, what the fuck are you guys doing???

axl rose refering to the security guards at the NEC on july 25th!!!!


my highlight

[Adler_Sorum_Brain]

hehe..to se a swedish TV show called " aim for the stars" where people sang covers and dressed up to the people who?s song they sang..someone did that with Axl ..and he wore the white pants / white leather coat with GNR - logo at the back..he sang paradies city..haha...that was a revolution for me...then i didn?t think of GNR untill 3 years ago when i bought appetite..now i have every record and alot of bootlegs

And then i saw them in stockholm 26/6 - GREAT !!

[anythinggoes]

shit the last 7 weeks have been my GNR highlight so cool to finally get out and see them in different venues and countries after being a fan for so long getting to meet so many cool people/geeks from the board its just kinda sad now it finished. It was weird because i split up with my long time partner in May it gave me the oportunity to go to Greece and the 4 Uk gigs and Hammersmith so she did me a favor in the end sort of. Just counting the pennies for USA now

[erose]

got to say that july 8th in oslo was my gn'r highlight!!!

june 28th and july 29th wasn't to bad either!!!

all in all, all the six shows i've been to on this tour have been fuckin' awsome and i must say that my gn'r hunger has defenetly been treated in a proper way!

damn it feels good to have your ass kicked properly by this amazing amazing awsome band!!!

[miss bomb]

so many! so ive seen them 4 times this summer now, its been costy but completely worth it!!

so the first time was at hammersmith - i was SO excited i was at the front row crushed against the barrier. it was a long wait for them but when i heard the opening riff for WTTJ i lost it! the atmosphere was so wild, i was just so happy to see them infront of me! highlight from that show was finck coming out along the front and stopping at me and leaning against me  magical

download - izzy coming on stage!! 

the ulitmate highlight was the acoustic show, obv. words cannot describe that night!!

[Derby Greg]

Leeds being my first GNR gig will always be special to me.

But I guess this summer is even better in some regards.

Seeing the new band 3 times - Hammersmith was awesome. Just there was a feeling in the air that something special was happening and that we were lucky to have tickets. Obviously the meet up as well and all the cool people I met or met up with again - Jarmo, Fieldsy, Adz, Kim, Sam, Ian, Gonz and Sarah.

Donnington - oh my god Izzy Stradlin has just walked on stage. Never been to a stranger gig (well except the 30th) - first half there was so much tension, bad blood in the air and then 2nd half the band nailed it.
To think I could have met Robin if I had hung out with you guys 10 more mins (Jarmo, Adz, Graciela). Gutted

Wembley - Again awesome to meet people - Christos, Anythinggoes plus the rest.
Band was great then Seb was great! Strange but cool.

Hopefully more GNR in the UK next year.
See you there

-Greg

[Christos AG]

Well...

I guess London can be added as my biggest highlight until now...

Wembley, the acoustic, Wembley again...

And all the great people I've met. It was really nice meeting you all. I hope we'll meet again sometime soon... Oh, and that none of you is some psycho killer who acts like a GN'R fan just to kill us all. 

[anythinggoes]

Oh, and that none of you is some psycho killer who acts like a GN'R fan just to kill us all.?

just waiting for the right moment and then

[Jamie]

My new highlight is the one gig I had the privilege to see during this tour, in the RDS, I didn't have the money or the freedom to travel to see more than one show, being only 16, like some of you did, but for that day I felt like the luckiest person alive, I got to see my idol just a few yards in front of me, with some good buddies, can't be beaten.

[thegreg1]

My biggest highlights are probably seeing them open for Aerosmith & driving from Michigan to Ohio to see them on some race track with Skid row.

 Funny thing about the Aerosmith show...We bought the tickets not knowing that G'n'R would be the opening act. What a great suprise when it was announced about a week or two before the show.

It was also cool to hear both G'n'R & Skid row play new stuff before UYI 1 & 2 & Slave to the grind were released.

[just_one]

my highlight was without a doubt the rock in rio 2006 show

best show ever

[Shirell]
