The highlights were the most rocking out version of Used to Love Her - everyone sang!
IRS blew me away. The only other time IRS has sounded that good was the London Acoustic Show, and thats a maybe.
Finck introduced a new solo during Madagscar that brought me chills. The crowd didnt know the new songs, but when Axl exploded into Blues and jumped on top of the piano, everyone went wild.
We had an amazing mosh pit - hard, rough, yet flowing so smooth and safe and the peak of it was Nightrain!
Axl's voice was PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The sound board was PERFECT, every instrument sounded perfect as if it was a studio recording.
If anyone from this show could say anything negative, they have a serious inferiority complex and should seek psychiatric help because you cant ask for better.
Axl asked for Merck's phone during November Rain and told the crowd they could hold up their cell phones instead of lighters.
The band recognized me! Tommy waved hi to me and played a solo to me and then pointed to Richard pointing to me like "look who it is!" Richard immediately gave me a "whats up" with his head and then after the show walked up to me, put his pick in my hand and shook my hand. Sebastian waved hello to me from side stage while GNR was on stage. Bastards, I thought, come pick me up from this crowd and take me with you!!!
There are a ton of pictures and video out there from fans, I hope it makes its way through.
Oh ya, and a December 15th show was announced at the Oakland Arena! (see you all there)
I will be at tonights show as well, naturally.
