Not ALL dude....AFTER he came out.  Except the new songs. 

From Think About You onward...

Whats up everyone. Garry you are a cool motherfucker man. But...what is the deal with the soda's? Someone on the wagon or something? Real fucking nice to meet you. Sorry if I came off a little drunk and stoned. That was probably because I was...a little drunk and stoned.

Chief, I was going to give my review but just read your write up on the previous page and now I won't even bother. You summed it up perfectly. Really fucking right on from my perspective. Though dude... damn shame to miss you at Hard Rock earlier.

About Hard Rock. I don't know if this was said but fuck it. At one point, of the music video rotation being played, SCOM came on. The whole fucking restaurant exploded. All the fans there for the show, went fucking nuts. Just fucking awesome. Then some other band song was next and was quickly stopped, like someone at Hard Rock realized what happened. Then they went right into playing GNR's Welcome to the Videos for the rest of the night, leading up to showtime. So fucking awesome. Just because of that we stayed for more drinks. Garry...where did you go man?

In close...this was an awesome awesome fucking night. Suicide girls where so fucking good. Stroke of genius letting these ladies start the show. Helmet, was exactly what I expected (not a bad thing). They were loud as fuck, and just aggressive for 40 straight minutes. Big surprise for me was Baz. I always kind of looked at him like he was a goofball, even back in the day. But you know what? He is a fucking goofball. But he fucking rocks and was having so much fun I found it contagious. I hate the bitches around me who were sitting on their asses. I was like the lone man standing in a section of pussies.

GNR were godlike for me last night. Just way fucking beyond. I saw them at there warm up gig in Vegas, and they just dwarfed that last night. My only wish was for TWAT to be played. But I love FUCKING LOVE the new songs played. Shit fucking everything was so SO Fucking good! I cannot wait for Tomorrows show. I am taking my mom with me. Lol. Hope to see some of you fuckers again at Hard Rock. My mom and I are cool, and she knows whats up. I wont be too much different tomorrow.

Oh I love that part when some fucker threw a cigarette on stage at Baz, and he threw it back saying "I only smoke illegal shit." Hahahaha right on motherfucker!

[erose]

sounds like an awesome gig, thanks for the updates!!!

Buddha!  I stayed until they showed/played November Rain.  The place went nuts at SCOM.

What do you mean by soda's?

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

Excuse my appearance, I look like a fucking crackhead.

[ppbebe]

haha who gave you the black eyes Garry. nevertheless awesome pics.

He shook almost everyone's hand (that was within range) in the pit area.  He had a big smile on his face and he kept saying silly things, he was so happy! 

I can't believe the reception that Better got!  It was on tier with Jungle and PC.  The place was rocking out.  And I was surprised that everyone was singing along word for word!

Another highlight was during YCBM, when we all yelled "With your ass in the air!" for Axl.  He looked like a kid in a candy shop!

Guess so you did.

Its great that better meets better response each time.

what silly thing he said?

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

haha who gave you the black eyes Garry. nevertheless awesome pics.

I haven't been sleeping too well lately. 

Axl kept making funnies.  He said that he was having a shit-tacular time.  That the L.A. crowd was sher-rific.

Having a hard time remembering.  Must.....get....sleep......

[ppbebe]

You must. sweet dreams, mate.

[dirtybabe]

Finck Rules.

Yes, he does. He doesn't need a top hat similar to what the 'last guy' wore as his trade mark to prove it either?

No its not just an opinion your sharing.  Its an assumption.  YOu assume that Robin is wearing a hat similar to Slash's cause hes trying to be like Slash.  Which you cannot know for sure because you donot know the guy.

[Kaleigh]

Still haven't received the Dizzy one on my email yet - I'll also post the pics I took mid-concert with my phone.

[Jim Bob]

Excuse my appearance, I look like a fucking crackhead.

I want you to know that I fell off my chair reading this!  Buddha, you crack my shit up!

Excellent reviews, Chief, Garry, & Buddha!  You guys rock! 

[Axl4Prez2004]

Can I just say I love this community?  All of you rock.  I am so jealous of you fuckers.   
Garry, you lucky son of a bitch!  Get some sleep.   
I can't wait till Guns get back east!!!!!!!!

was anyone in orchestra nine?

can anyone tell me how the view is? ?i'm afraid i won't be able to see some of the band because its on the very left of the place

[Jizzo]

I was in 23, literally on the far left of the section, and I could see everyone about 95% of the time. There were a few times when I couldn't see Dizzy, but I really think that there's no "bad" seat in the place.

Did anyone notice that Izzy's guitar was out of tune at the beginning of patience? As soon as Ron and Robin started playing he went over and swapped out for another one.

I was 2nd row in Orch 9...fear not my friend, you will have a great time...there's a wing of the stage that goes right up to our section, and you can see everything including frank, dizzy, and chris up top. There is no such thing as a bad seat in this place...unless the person in front of you is 9 feet tall or has a five inch afro.

P.S. Yes I did notice Izzy was out of tune. Anyone wanna attack me for noticing that? 

[WeHeldTogether]

^Thanks to both of you. ?I was worried for a second.
