Yeah my internet connection was spotty at times too.  I took a few videos that actually came out alright.  I would've taken more if I knew they'd come out like this.  Dah well!  Maybe next time.

I took one video, not sure how it even came out...  I figured I'd leave that to other people.

thanks for the update everyone! cool to see nice boys in there ripping it up

[Bodhi]

what an amazing show, probably the best GNR show I have been to in my life, they were firing on all cylinders from start to finish, and the set list was incredible.  I got to shake Axl's hand during "Patience", that was so cool!  Just woke up and getting ready to hit the road for Wilkes Barre tonight.  Best band in the world!!

Guns N' Roses Plays Long, Late Show Saturday in Hartford

Rose and his latter-day Guns N? Roses lineup took a more maximal approach Saturday night (and early Sunday morning) at Comcast Theatre in Hartford, where they played 32 songs over nearly three hours, starting at 11:30 p.m. (OK, math whizzes: 11:30 start plus 3-hour show equals what time?)

As a declaration of existence, and as a display of virtuosity, it was impressive. Even all these years after Rose split from the other original members of the band, he?s still clearly determined to show that he didn?t need those jerks anyway. And though the current Guns lineup doesn?t have the air of impending mayhem that made the original band so compelling, the singer has assembled a group of top-notch musicians to back him on stage.

The band put on a show, with jets of pyro and fireworks on a big stage with plenty of room for Rose and his band to roam around. The singer has taken excellent care of his voice, and if he didn?t sound as restless and hungry as he once did on ?Welcome to Jungle,? well, he isn?t. But he sang it and the other songs well, dancing a little in place here and there and running back and forth between vocals.

His platoon of three guitarists ? DJ Ashba, Richard Fortus and Ron ?Bumblefoot? Thal ? nailed Slash?s guitar tone on ?Sweet Child O? Mine,? and pounded through ?Chinese Democracy? tunes including ?Shackler?s Revenge.? Rose anchored the piano part on ?November Rain? and the crowd helped him sing ?Knockin? on Heaven?s Door? late in.

After wrapping up the main set with ?Nightrain,? the band returned for an encore that included another cover ? Rose Tattoo?s ?Nice Boys? ? before ending with ?Patience? and, finally, ?Paradise City.?

No problem. I know some people appreciate it stuff liketht so thats y... I recorded Chinese Democracy and was trying to post it here right away, meaning while they were starting Jungle, but Internet in there was slow moat of the time.

My review: F--king AWESOME.  Great venue, and the guys just nailed everything...thank you to all involved for the experience of a lifetime (until the next show!!).

added:  Where do these pricks writing reviews for papers sit? Are they even at the same show? The Hartford Republican review said there was a lukewarm reception to ChiDem???  And I dont think anybody cared about the start time (this guy claims Baz "had to fill the time before Guns took the stage"?) as much as they cared about the lines at the concessions - and the speed at which they couldn't seem to pour a beer.

Question: Why you never take pics of Axl?

Don't get me wrong, i'm not complaining, you always have the best pictures! It's just curiosity
