New GnR-blood from the Netherlands!

I placed this post incorrectly, so to be correct, here it goes again:

Hello guys, new on the forum since today!
My name is DJ and I am from the Netherlands, 30 years of age.
I have been a GnR-fan since april 1989, when I heared Paradise City (2nd released single in the Netherlands, Sweet Child o' Mine didn't really become a hit when first released).
So I got Appetite for Destruction as a Christmas present. When I received the Use Your Illusion albums, I was sold permanently!
Favourite line up would be: Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy and Matt (but I know Matt and Izzy haven't played together too long, but still). And still today I listen to them nearly every day. I do have to say, that I do not really like the current GnR. Axl doesn't rock as much as he used to, and it's simply not GnR anymore. In my eyes it's an over-the-hill Axl with some people I do not want to know. But still, I will always love Gnr from the eighties en nineties!
So, that who I am! Cannot say what is my favourite song, because this changes often. But at the moment I guess it's the live version of Rocket Queen. Hi guys!

hey man!!! Welcum to the forum. I'm Canadian and pretty Awesome, hope you went out to see GnR this year, even though you don't like the lineup, they still really rock the shit out!

You just got to see this band live to change your opinion.

I recently saw Axl performing some stuff in the end of 2010, and I was pleasantly surprised! He came very close to his 'golden days', much much better than the stuff I have seen from 2006. So now I am curious! Started listening to Chinese Democracy a bit more. Starting to like some songs now (still hate a couple as well, but that's life!).
So maybe I am getting more into 'NewGnR'. Also because I think at the moment, there aren't that many cool bands around.

Sweet Child wasn't a hit? I remember something else  We girls were totally in love with the band and the song as far as I remember? Aww, that video.... Have you ever seen the alternative video btw? If the answer is "no" I send the link.

My own "sweet child" is here and this is our song.  And she abused it immediately by saying: "Mam, are you gonna make dinner now?" Well, she's been "terrorised" with her mother's love for rock. But it was her who bought the tickets for the Slash gig and that's why I'm off now to the kitchen to cook her fave meal. 

* That band looked so damned hot and it was a huge hit here, it still is!

[The Spaghetti Incident?]

Swear to God at a glance I thought that you said 'mother's love for cock'

Guess that means I'm tired. I'm the hell outta here lol.

Hey that's all good. I can't see the first video because it's private

Yes, it wasn't for quite some time and it looked great  the other longer version contains footage from the alternate version  Us girls had lots of arguments with guys who couldn't stand we loved GnR's hotness.
