Part of Axl's uniqueness is his banter (or rants from yesteryear) with the crowd. Seems like there was a lot of it during this show. Pretty cool. Also, every time I hear Fortus solo I think how awesome it is that he is in this band. The guy can really play. Shred, chicken pickin', you name it he can do it. What a great pick-up he was.

It sounds totally nerdy, and the kind of comment I tend to mock, but it made me so happy to see that scene.

I have had pretty serious doubts as to how much camaraderie is present in all this. And if the time on stage is the only time they really spend together. But while I have consistently said that if that was the case, it's fine by me, it did make me smile to see them goofing off like that.

Funny you should say that. Im sitting here watching the Nightrain vid which is sick btw and trying to figure out what the fuck shes doing back there. Just bouncing around on a keyboard? Is it plugged in? Kinda distracting.

Since we all know how much he hated Slash at some point of his life, I don't think he could do it if they hadn't figured out their issues. And seeing all this, it's just so great. I imagine you guys at the show yesterday won't be able to get much done today. I would be in heaven.

The show was Epic. What I saw last night was magical. Everyone was spot on. I know the videos do not do the sound justice. Axl was on fire. I cant imagine one negative complaint, other than the show ended and the tour is leaving town. Might be the best show I ever saw. Some might have been more wild or have been more intimate. I have to admit what I saw and heard last night I have not heard in over 20 years. Those songs have not touched me in that way in a long time. To hear the sounds of Slash and Duff on those songs took me back in time. I have seen just about ever version of GNR since 91 and this one was the best.

Im excited for what the future may hold

Here's a decent youtube "setlist". I'm sure we might get some better sources as people wake up and add their stuff.

Thanks for the videos!

I loved the Chinese Democracy video. But I hate that green guitar.. apparently it's just a transparent Les Paul with a custom plate and it sounds just as amazing as any, but oh boy thats ugly. Tongue

Any pics of Tommy at the show? Apparently he was there again.

Nothing on his Instagram.

The green guitar is a B.C. Rich guitar, not a Gibson Les Paul.

Her back-up vocals alone make her a welcome addition.

Wow, awesome show. Probably my 10th GnR show and it was definitely top 2. Was really impressed by the sound, especially for a stadium like the Linc. Place was packed too and a great atmosphere.

You're def right about a green BC Rich on Chinese Democracy. But there is a hideous green Les Paul too that he uses on New Rose.

Slash once played my Les Paul (pic to the left) & the bass used on "Better" is literally on my living room floor.

What did Axl actually do? Did he tickle Slash?? Huh

The video plays slowly for me and it's unclear.

He absolutely fucking did. Walked up behind him, and went "tickle tickle"...like, to try to mess him up (in good natured fun), and then walked around him and they both laughed about it. You can see it in better quality here (jump to around the 3:15 mark):

No. He sang it like it's written: you know that you DO...

But he didn't emphasize his Bela Lugosi voice on the line "but I don't want to do it" like he does on the album and he's done previously.

I have to tell you guys, there was complete shock in my section when they started up 'Sorry'.

Is this 'Sorry'??...I can't believe they are playing this!...Have these guys ever actually listened to the lyrics?

All overheard in the rows around me. Was pretty funny. Prompting my Dad to ask what was up with this song. So I obliged :

Basically, its a song about how the old band fucked him over and can all knock heads as they kiss his ass, as far as he's concerned.

We have all seen the quote that the song isn't specifically about Slash ... But come on ...lol
It's not my favorite song either ... But I've gotten a big kick out of seeing and hearing all the new arrangements and the solos on all of the CD songs on this tour.
