Hey guys! Just awakened after a well deserved bunch of hours in tha bed.
I went to Buenos Aires from Santa Fe, a city thats about 7 hours away. We were more less 100 fans i think in 2 buses. We left Santa Fe at 8:30 am and arrived Bs As just before the doors opened. There was a LARGE queue for the field sector, it started to move slowly but then quite fast so luckily it wasnt a pain waitin'.
Massacre opened first. Its a local band i have heard a lot about but actually never heard them. I like them. It was a nice performance and they sounded really good. There were some impatience people near the first rows that were throwing things and waving their hands like saying "Get out of the stage! We want GNR"...
La Mancha de Rolando took the stage later. I dont really like this band, but they sounded clear. When I read that they were going to play I thougt "I dont think they fit in a GNR concert". And I still think the same but anyway lot of people (specially the younger ones) sang along and jumped around with the songs. The band played all their radio hits. Also, they extended their setlist. I saw a guy telling them from the backstage "One more" many times.
I think it was around... 10 pm when
Sebastian took the stage. Man... what an awesome frontman!!! I was really excited about having the possibility of seing him before GNR but I also thougt about saving my energy for GNR...
COULDN HELP IT, I was jumping like crazy very near the stage singing along all songs
it was great!. Sebastian setlist was excellent! Big Guns, I remember you, Love is A Bitschlap, Stuck Inside, 18 and life... Anyway, before he started singin Argentinian Metalhead
I went totally smashed out of air and almost fainted! I tried to get some oxygen going to the back rows but the crowd never ended LOL so i made my way to one of the sides of the field and asked a security guard to take me out! He took me to the nursery (there were several fainted people ther) and I sat down to get some rest and water. Then went back to he field to listen the rest of Sebastian set. Dudes, he was really really really exited about the crowd. He said it was his best show ever, just couldnt belive we were so fn' crazy!!!
It was awesome, thank you so much Sebastian!Then we waited some time to the set to be prepared for
THE BEAST...
The crowd were going impatience, all the ligths were on but... suddenly it was only the moonlight in the sky, that freakin intro started and we all screamed and went totally mad pushing each others to the front rows and then
Ashba appeared playing CD intro and it was incredible!
Guns n' Roses were there in front of me. I got
seriously paralyzed But then found myself jumping like a fn' crazy wild monkey like all the field!
What can I say dudes... nothing. There are no words to describe my emotions... I wouldn know how to (I am not Axl
)... It was great despite the mic problems in near the first half part of the show. Actually, the sound problem in Axl's voice didnt ruined the show cause we were singing instead of him LOL, it was great. Later on the show, Axl finally was sure the mic was ok and he screamed several time just for us and we responded going crazy!
Its a shame that there were people throwing things at the stage. I guess they were really worried about not being able to heard Axl's voice during the entire show. But then that shit stopped. A curios note: Back in the bus in where I came, a guy told me that at the end of PC Axl seemed to be arguin very angry with someone near the stage, he told me he tnik it was cause of this guy shouting something about Slash. But I am not sure, i was looking athe the awesome pyro and confetti
The band sounded incredibly!
Frank is a god-dammed drum demon!
4tus, Ashba and Ron the awesomest of the awesomest awe!
Chris really gave a great atmosphere to the sound and
Dizzy was Dizzy: A fn' great guy and musician! Was very ovationed during his solo.
Axl was craaaazy as always! He is the
ultimate frontman. No discussion! It seemed to me that despite the pussys trowing things he was very happy, he smiled a lot and was in a really good mood. He was ovationed constantly during the show "Ole ole ole Axl Axl"
My personal higliths:
? Sorry (sounded so fn' bold my bones were trembnling!)
? When Ron started the Dont Cry solo the crowd started sing along and then Axl appeared and started singin!!!! I couldn believe it man! I was too much for me! BEST SHOW EVER!
? Madagascar (I got really overwhelmed with emotion there).
? Actually, all the fn' show...
It was great. Sound problems cant bring down all the speacial moments of the nights. Finfing myself singing and jumping with fellow Gunners from all around the country showing our love for all the band, the history of a great band, but actually for this band,
THE band just dont have price for me. I will never forget March 22 night.
Thanks a lot GNR. Return soon fuckers we will be waiting you!I am sure I will remember more things during the day but thats all for now
