anyone go to the show in Dublin last night.
Unfortunately i didnt have the money as im going away soon! 
i was snapping that i couldnt go. 

[gcluskey]

Yeah went to the gig and met the guys afterwards, was a great gig!! I was a wee bit drunk but had a blast!!

[Albert S Miller]

I was able to see the warm-up show at "Chop Suey" last Saturday night in Seattle.  I can not even begin to tell you how impressed I was with this band.  Excellent!!  The new drummer speaks for himself.  He had learned the songs played that evening in only 4 days and was without flaw, great pick.  They also played So Fine, Attitude and It's so easy.  Have some pictures I will indeed try to put up today, would have done this way sooner, but I have been sicky with flu all week.  See you guys later for pics .

Duff in Dublin

Duff such a cool guy. Really down to earth and very human!!!

[seely]

I just saw Duff's Loaded at the rescue rooms in Nottingham! literally less than 90minutes ago it ended, i was right at the front, and best of all, i saw him before the show began, just me, him and one other person, and i got a photo done with him
Will post more about it later, but it was an awesome show, from the GN'R catalogue he did So Fine (which he dedicated to a girl in the audience who he met on GNRs first UK tour in 1987), Attitude (he got a guy right next to me to come and help sing it!), New Rose (partly at my request, though they do it at most shows), and ended the gig with It's So Easy!
And seeing as they were charging ?40 for meet and greets after the show, to get these pics before the show is a saving from heaven!
Best of all, when i first saw him in the building i went over and asked for an autography, he said he was a biyt busy but promised to come back, and half an hour later, low and behold, he came right over to where i was for a photo and a few signatures! (Got my ticket and my AFD cds signed, i had my copy of 'sick' with me, but forgot i had it with me)

Was a great show as expected, view from the balcony was awesome and hopefully by the end of the night it will be shared with you all

[seely]

aweome, i think i saw some guy on the balcony filming it all, would be great to see 

[Alan]

Filmed in HD, only part missing was the end of 'i see through you' and the intro of attitude due to having to change tape

[Jim Bob]

congrats to you guys for getting to meet duff.   looks like he's awesome with the fans.

[gnr2k6]
