Saw them in Phx, AZ, the last time was back in 1992 w/ Metallica (headliner), and Faith No More open so I was 12 years old, and first concert ever was Stevie Ray Vaughn.
I'm still in a dazed n confused state of mind of what I witnessed last night for 3 hours. Yes, that is correct Guns N' Roses played from 11pm to 2am exactly maybe 2:05am to be precise. I won't mention the whole original GnR to the 'new' band. I think Chinese Democracy is a work of art. This concert had me going from start to finish hearing such tracks as Estranged, Rocket Queen, Civil War, You Could Be Mine, Street of Dreams, Prostitute among another 30 more songs. I've been fortunate to take after my dad and uncle as a 'concert junkie/metalhead'- grunge, metal, classic rock, hard rock. I'm 31 so since age 10 I've probably been to at least 80 concerts after each one just saying to myself wow that was incredible (Tool- '93 and '01), (Robin Trower '08 and '11), I could go on and on.
Anyways I have to make a confession to say this was by far one of the greatest live shows I have ever been a part of, I cheated and recorded a ton of songs in entirety w/ a jimmy-rigged holder for my iphone without flash. Here's a few pics I was able to get as well again no flash used I do respect the other fans around me. Axl still has a killer voice and hit most of the high notes spot on, the guitarists- Ashba, "Bumblefoot' and rest of the band were badass.
