When I got there CKY was just about to go on.
First off I don't know who's dick they sucked to get an opening spot for
Guns N Roses, but they were just terrible.
Moving on to Master Mike, he was really cool. He put on roughly an hour show
and I was very impressed with what he did.
Guns N' Roses went on 45 minutes after Master Mike got off. They kicked in
with Welcome To The Jungle. It sounded great but I was more
or less surprised because they didn't use the Exorcist 3 intro.
Axl looked great, he came out with a Team Canada jersey and thus the show
began. He really didn't have much to say, which was good because that meant
he was in a great mood. Basically all he said was that it was a crazy trip
from Toronto because of the weather (we had a snow storm that night).
The band played three new songs
Madagascar, The Blues
and
Chinese Democracy. Out of all
of them I must say that The Blues sounded best. I really
think that song will take off once it hits the radio. More or less like
November Rain..........I think GNR got the biggest response when they
started November Rain. The crowd was cheering so loud that the building was
shaking.
Axl all in all wore the Canadian jersey, during Rocket Queen he came out in
a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey followed by London's home OHL hockey team "The
London Knights" jersey. I must say that the band and Axl are a lot stronger
and more clean then they were ten years ago. The new band fucking rocks. I
loved every minute of it.
They played about 2 hours worth and it ended sometime a little past one in
the morning. If anyone has doubt about the new GNR, go check out the show
because it totally rocks and Axl is the best front man in the world.
