They just played axl's personal favourite touch too much. Said the band hadn't played it for god knows how long and he hasn't really sang it haha

[GNRVahland]

Show has ended by now I guess...
Don't know if Riff Raff was played...and didn't get Those about to rock confirmed but they won't skip that one I guess.

I did like again what I heard and saw 


End of the show on periscope :

I don't think they did Riff Raff.  They did do Touch Too Much!!!

Axl said something like they heard a request for it and said AC/DC hadn't done it in years and he hadn't done it in like ever.

The periscope was so spotty it was hard to find steady streaming.

But thanks GNRVahland for all the links!!!

No thanks needed...just doing my duty as fan of good music.

Caring  = sharing

(I just got Periscope recently myself and in times when I didn't have it yet I was glad with others who shared the streams   )

Thank you!

That was great.

Just back to my hotel from the gig. It was AMAZING! Axl was in much more jovial spirits that Marseille.

So great to see him on his feet. He looked incredible & played the stage like the true pro he is.

I got some great pics. I'll share on here when I'm home.

Axl is on fire. He looks at home in these stadium settings. Can't wait for the GN'R summer tour.

🤘🤘🤘

It was certainly busy. The atmosphere was f'n great. Lovely part of the world Prague.

Axl's ditched the chair completely now?

Axl's ditched the chair completely now?

My prayers have been answered!! TOUCH TOO MUCH LIVE!!!! BY AXL!!!!



When Axl stated it was his favorite, I researched the song and saw the band had never played it live, thus I was not expecting to hear my idol sing it live.



But, OH HELL YES HE DID!!!!



Axl, PLEASE get the band to play Touch Too Much in Philadelphia!!

[nalafej]

setlist.fm is saying that they played Dog Eat Dog too which would be a first since 2009. So, two new songs at the show and one cut song (Riff Raff). These must be approaching record show lengths for AC/DC.

Review in the biggest newspaper in Czech Rep: http://kultura.zpravy.idnes.cz/ac-dc-axl-rose-roch-or-bust-tour-recenze-d9q-/hudba.aspx?c=A160522_234551_hudba_vha

Obviously it's in czech language, but to sum it up it's very positive (80%), which is something considering they trashed the idea (and Axl) every chance they had.

This newspaper sucks. Big time. At least concerning music, and Axl Rose in particular. Their reviews are stupid, manipulative, uninformed, and negative, even if they seem overall positive.

[zombux]

more favorable reviews popping out. interesting that they agree the show was great, but not talking much about the musicians' performances. but that's understandable - these are the big general media, not specialized music media (which usually have the reviews a few days later).
funny bit - I was travelling through the city during the day, people with AC/DC t-shirts or at least rock outfit were everywhere, even asking me if I go to the show, because I was wearing a GNR 2010 t-shirt, maybe a bad move during this time and when I was returning home from the S?lstafir show (sorry, had to see them, no matter what), already in a S?lstafir t-shirt, people were still asking me if I was at the AC/DC show
the show itself took place at an airport in the northern part of the city, public traffic was packed with fans and police closed that part of the city. it was quite a huge event here, actually

Dog Eat Dog!

Longest set this far, 24 songs

[ice cream sand pig]

the long and short of it is that AC/DC songs are a piece of cake for Axl. He is tailor made for the tracks and the lyrics. He only has to use one voice and the lyrics/vocals have space between them. He doesn't have to use, as David Fricke said in 1991, "his machine-gun mouth" and/or sing in 5 different voices like he does with Gnr. He can lock in and roll.

bingo
