[Updates] August 5th, 2016 Houston, TX @ NRG Stadium

[C0ma]

In the stream you can clearly hear the piano (Dizzy's ?) is completely out of tune.

Umm doesn't Axl play piano durring November rain?

Why is dizzy even playing?

Dizzy always played a complimentary piano part along with Axl way back in the day. This can be seen (and heard) during the 92 Tokyo show for example... When Axl comes out of the intro into the song he says 'Dizzy' into the microphone and you suddenly hear the piano get 'fatter' and the video clearly shows an overhead shot of Dizzy playing almost the same thing Axl is playing.

Edited to add: This may have been unique to 1992 when Teddy was onstage to do the synth strings parts (which these days would have been done by Melissa (or Chris in CD Era shows)).

 The first thing that comes to my mind is the this famous quote..."Houston we have a problem" 

"What the fuck was that?"  That's my Axl! 

Hilarious moment, best NR ever

Axl stopped playing and the weird sound was still going on. Either that was Dizzy's piano or there was a mouse inside Axl's grand piano.

Catcher....zombie crowd.

I think the end of Catcher is Slash's best work of all the CD songs.

For anyone (Tim) who saw the Arlington and Houston shows in TX, which one was better? Or is it possible to say?
I am not familiar with NRG stadium, how many does it hold and how many were there would you estimate?

It holds 72k for football.  Id guess 45 to 50k last night.  Huge crowd.  Id say 92 percent wearing gnr tees. 

[14 Yrs Of Silence]

Say it again, but Slash kills it on the CD songs.

Driving back to Baton Rouge now.  What an amazing show in Houston!  NRG is a first class facility. Huge crowd. Had to top 50,000.

During NR I turned to my wife and asked "What the fuck is that?" Referring to the awful piano noise. Axl asked the exact same thing seconds later. So happy he took it like a champ and was able to continue the song.

Ugh another terrible so called review from the Chronicle. I'm wondering if these critics are even there.

What are some of these negative reviews been saying?

From the sound of the crowd and the looks on the people's faces its hard to imagine people are not having a good time

Everyone I spoke to had a great time and nothing but positive things to say. Fuck all the naysayers.  I've never been to a show with lines like that to buy merchandise. An hour after the show ended the line at the outside stand was 20+ people deep, 4 lines wide. Gnr is making a killing on this tour!

My mistake it was the Houton Press with the idiot. http://www.houstonpress.com/music/slash-is-king-as-guns-n-roses-returns-to-houston-8640133 He slagged on songs like NR and Estranged and Axl in particular. As well as the CD songs.

Yeah I noticed that too.  If it was Dizzy's piano, impressive that Axl was able to pick up on it so quick.  He's singing and playing his own piano.  He handled it like a boss.  All these shows have been phenomenal.  So glad I've been able to get to three of them.  Trying to convince the Mrs. that we need to head out to the west coast and catch one more!
