Just got back from the show early Thursday morning from Newcastle arena. Had an awesome time! the new band were absoloutley on fire they sound so tight its unbelievable!

Overall they did an excellent range of songs and really performed them well, the explosions, effects and of course Axel's amazing voice made made the gig trully amazing (It was really nice to see Izzy too).

Couple of things that really pissed me off though Guns and Roses not coming on till 10:15 !! Probably cause of Axl as usual being late! Shocking ! Made everybody late for work the next day! Its so unprofessional!!!! (People were actually booing before they came on cause they were sick of waiting)
 
Because of this the band had no time to play any of the new material except for a small section of the blues by Dizzy on the piano during his solo. Sebastian Bach even said "Youve gotta do I.R.S Axel" before they sang My Michelle together. Also that guy throwing a pound coin at Axel spoilt it for everyone. I someone threw a bottle when I was there but it really narked Axel off and in doing so they went off and started Nightrain again after telling anyone who see's someone throwing stuff to tell security.
 
They finished on Nightrain and didnt even do Paradise City! I was really disserpointed by this considering the amount of money the ticket cost. Overall I really enjoyed the gig, thought the band sounded absoloutley awesome! However Axel being late as per friggin usual ! and them not doing any new material or even finishing on Paradise City made me a feel a little bit short changed and ripped off. If anyone else has tickets to see any other gigs hope you enjoy them and hope that he turns up on time lol. I am probably gunna take a break from listening to Guns N Roses because I was so pissed off at Axel's unprofessional behaviour its really put me off. Hope he doesnt do this at any of the other gigs.
