So here's my review:
This show kicked Toronto's ass. Ottawa crowd, though smaller, was way more rowdy. Gotta hand it to them. Lots of crowd surfing and jumping around.
Axl: "Great national product you've got there" in regards to the Trailer Park Boys.
Crowd seemed to love Better, most knew the new songs (I was down front, can't speak for those at the back).
Just awesome crowd throughout, and two new tracks for the encore (IRS and Madagascar), I don't dig IRS live as much as the demo but I love Madagascar and people seemed to really enjoy it.
Tommy was awesome at this show doing a lot of his "punk strutting" or whatever and making faces and shit.
Usual solos etc. but seemed better than Toronto, and people sang along more to Don't Cry.
He also said "show these guys to the rest of the world and fuck everybody up!"
I noticed that when Dizzy sat down at the piano....Axl smiled and said "you got your jersey on eh?" or something like that....
It was Tommy who kept asking Axl to do Happy Birthday for Richard...I could see him laughing and talking to Axl about it.
before he said "great national product " he said "thanks for introducing us to those guys" meaning the Trailer Park Boys (thanking Canada)
Interesting in Toronto Axl introduced Bubbles as "mike and not Bubbles"
He made a comment after YCBM about how some chicks can rip your balls off ? or something like that? not sure about that one......he commented that that was one of their little love songs a ballad......(joking of course).
