    Epic gig, the Rocket Queen solo went on far far too long though.

    Have to agree here . Apart from that unreal gig , band were on form and over 2 hours of Rock N Roll how could you go wrong :)

    The Treatment were pretty decent , great stage presence and the frontman has a lot of Charisma . Only downfall would be their songs seem to sound to similar

    Yeah, never thought I'd say it as I love slash but the solo did get a little tedious after a while. An amazing gig though overall and I agree on the openers, very enjoyable and definitely one of the better support bands I've seen. All in all a great night!

    The support act were decent, genuinely surprised me :)

    I think I was slightly entranced/mesmerised with that solo :p
    A guy knocked into me during it and it scared the life outta me :o

    Very enjoyable gig - the rest of the years gigs has plenty to live up to ;)

    She was actually Steven Adler's girlfriend. No wonder he became such a f.uck up!

    25 years of going to gigs and what he did on rocket queen just blew me away, amazing solo

    That was my highlight too. I could have listened to it for another 20 minutes easily. Parts of it were very bluesy. It was like what Hendrix used to do, just go on a guitar ramble.

    I regret that I had one or two beers too many, and no details in my memory left :cool:

    So I had no time to notice how long the solo was etc. :pac:

    I found myself between group of lads and we were dancing and jumping like crazy, like in old good times when I was a teenager and we were going to the rock concerts:p

    Great gig, absolutely rocked. Was surprised at the lack of headbanging in the crowd most people standing still until the end when it went a bit crazy! Highlight was Paradise City at the end.

    I loved when he played the Bad Penny riff (Rory Gallagher) at the start of the Rocket Queen solo.

    Got an autograph as well! :)

    Played it the Monday night! , judging by the setlists delighted I got the Monday tickets Civil War instead of Brownstone, Doctor Alibi instead of Gonna Die to name a few.

    It's good to see they changed sets for those going to both shows far too often a band will do 2 dates and belt out the same set both nights saying that I'd tend only to do one night per certain tour.

    Die by the Sword my personal highlight, didn't know what the story was with the crowd Monday maybe most did go Sunday and were wrecked or something only really went mental for Paradise City (the last song of course)


  • Registered Users Posts: 161 ✭✭pepe00


    feking hell I was bit too drunk on sunday I dont remember mr brownstone :D

    I guess that whiskey did the job, I was sipping jack daniels while waiting for slash to come out from sound check...:D

    I do remember that night train was played as second song, right?:p

    and paradise city and welcome to the jungle were as last songs...

    feking great night anyway, dont need to remember all,

    I guess whiskey help me to go mad, and we were headbanging like crazy:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,451 ✭✭✭blastman


    So you paid 3-4 times the ticket price to get so drunk you can't remember most of the gig?

    That's it, I officially don't understand mankind.

    As the Gn'R song goes: "You're F**king Crazy!"

    I did it once(paid a tout for a ticket). Will never, ever do it again.
