30 minute recap of the show

Man thats a lot of lights

Axl sounds really good in that pro clip. I'm a little confused though - what's the theme this time? Looks like the same show like last time in Vegas..

Theme??  Did GNR ever have a "show theme"?? 

But if there is a "theme" it probably has something to do with the young lady in this pic with Dj!!!
Congrats to her and the rest of her troop!!! Seriously.  They do that for the entire 2 1/2 hours plus!!!

Yeah, some lights look like the old Pink Floyd concerts

I stand corrected. 
Watching that 30 minute video, it looked to me like they were in a good portion of the show.

Being that as it may .... IMHO, watching the video, it looked like they did an amazing sexy-athletic performance!!!  And I love the way they were strategically placed.  They in no way "interfered with" or "distracted from" the concert.  I thought they "complimented" the stage and show!!!   

Kudos to the dancers

They really are very talented but that is where you and I differ. Seeing a girl pole dancing while Jungle is being sung doesn't quite fit the scene. Maybe more a trapeze act with girls in jungle attire?
I'd not notice them, I just watch Axl the whole time as he's far more charismatic & entertaining for me.
So Jarmo says the girls aren't out there the whole show - I wonder if they are privately entertaining him during their 'breaks'

Disagree.  A trapeze act with the girls in jungle attire would be IMO a silly distraction.

I'd not notice them, I just watch Axl the whole time as he's far more charismatic & entertaining for me.

If I hadn't seen that still-photo of the dancer before I watched the video, I might not have noticed them either.  I was just envious of how someone could look that good while being so athletic at the same time.  Totally agree that Axl's talent & charisma & showmanship is what draws & keeps us so engrossed in everything GNR.  The dancers, as well as all the other talent/crew/stage set-up/etc., IMO are as they should be, complimenting to the whole GNR (Vegas) concert experience.

What I liked most about the dancers, was that there was nothing crude or obscene about their performance.  I find what you're implying offensive.  Insulting people and their work to make a 'joke' is not funny.

Show was awesome!! Might come back for the last weekend. I won enough $ at the blackjack tables to pay for another trip!

Those dancers are seriously talented and top athletes in my books.  Hell I don't know if I could make the top of the pole, let alone all the shit they do and look damn sexy doing it too!
