Thanks 2 those who went 2 Mustang Harry's on May 12th. That made my first concert experience something I'll never forget. Never did I feel like I fit in anywhere as much as I did amongst you strangers

Thanks to everybody who took part.

The survey is now closed.


I'll post the results.











What song made you a fan?

Some interesting answers:

4 Rocket Queen
5 Estranged
6 Madagascar
6 Knockin' On Heaven's Door
8 whole Appetite For Destruction.
11 Nightrain
15 It's So Easy
16 Don't Cry
22 You Could Be Mine
22 November Rain
63 Paradise City
69 Sweet Child O' Mine
113 Welcome To The Jungle

Where did you hear this song (radio, TV, friend's place etc.)?

Many of you were introduced to GN'R by friends (91). Radio (72) and MTV (75) were also commons answers here.

TV (53) and relatives (55) were other popular answers.











If, yes, what's your favorite piece of memorabilia you have in your possession?

Signed items are popular it seems. As well as t-shirts.



The most popular "other" items are hats/caps.

24. First GN'R concert you attended? (leave blank if you haven't seen GN'R)

Many of you saw the band for the first time in 2006 followed by 2002.

36 saw GN'R for the first time in 1991.
32 in 1992
22 in 1993
14 in 1988
7 in 1987





     27. If you could pick one place to see GN'R play and you could attend, where would it be?

Many of you want GN'R to play either your house or your home town.  Wink

Hammerstein Ballroom, Madison Square Garden, Las Vegas and Wembley Stadium are a popular choices too


















Thanks to everybody who took part!

Thats very interesting. By the looks of it I was the only Aussie to do this. I think I may have fucked up the last question I think I done it arse up, I thought 1 was most likely and 5 least likely. If I remember correctly.

Awesome!

But looking at some of the answers, it's a little bit odd that most people became a fan in 87 and 88!! Ok, AFD topped the charts in 88, but I'm sure GNR was a complete unkonwn to mainstream in 87. There were sort of popular in the LA club scene, but I just find it hard to believe most people here became fans before they actually became comercially big.

I was expecting many more answers from those years 91-93, I guess I was wrong or maybe people feel they wouldntt be considered hard core fans if they discovered the band around the Illusion years.

Seems as though you doubt people becoming fans in '87.  From the looks of the responses, there is a significant number of fans 30 and up.  I'm 31, making me 10 in '87.  I clearly remember first seeing Gn'R in rock magazines (circus, metal edge) in late '87, seeing Welcome to the Jungle and remember that episode of Headbangers Ball when they tore up the set.  And while I didn't actually own Appetite until the summer of '88 (which was my answer for when I became a fan), they had clearly made an impression on me before that.  In fact I'm guessing I would have purchased Appetite sooner if I had money, but I was only 10 years old...still had to count on Mom and Dad for such purchases.  1988 was really a monumental year for me as a music fan, because I had went from owning 4 cassette tapes to suddenly becoming obsessed with buying music that summer, and Gn'R had a lot to do with that.

What's your favorite?
- Better 29,59%
- There was a time 22,19%
- The Blues 16,71%

Will these remain the favorites after a year or so?
