    I spent $600 on tickets for GNR for my wife's birthday on the Not In This Lifetime Tour. it was one fantastic show. 
    yup, i did it twice.  saw them in a stadium in summer, went back to the arena show in the fall. and if both bands were playing tonight, same distance from me, i would most likely go to guns tonight.

    that 4/9/92 show SandyRavage posted is amazing.  agree, arguable the greatest debut album ever. 
    Have you seen the Saskatoon 93 show?
    fuck. one show away from the one I was at.

    That's a lot... I think the tickets were 70-80 dollars here in Gothenburg last summer.

    I think we can all agree that Ed has aged better than Axl. Lol
    Peace,Love and Pearl Jam.

    He should play like 45 min shorter shows (for his voice) and stop wearing his weird clothes/costume that he changes at the show like he's Lady Gaga...

    But he was pretty amazing in 2006:

    agreed. when I saw Axl & Co in 2006, he was in tip top shape, both physically and voice-wise.

    If i would have saw GNR in 2006/07 i would not have been disappointed at all.. 

    funny how all the Axl haters disappear once you give them a reason why you like the band... 

    even funnier that 5 years ago the Axl haters would have out-weighed the people who were actually praising this band

    I love Axl and GNR are my all time bucket list active  band but some of the pics of Axl now are rough. Maybe it’s the angle but he is without a doubt one of the best frontmen to grace a stage. 
    Peace,Love and Pearl Jam.

    I think my first Guns N' Replacements show was 2006 in Edmonton.   He was still doing the "starting late" thing, but because he was consistent I made sure I had the day off after from work, and the city of edmonton left the LRT (public transit train) operating late to take people home after the show.

    The show itself was amazing.   I had an insanely great time.  So much so, that when I saw the reformed line up in 2016 (which was also amazing), that I'm not sure which was the better show :)

    the funny thing about his going on at midnight in 2006 wasn't that he was starting late, at least not in winnipeg. he had 4 or 5 opening bands, and Sebastian Bach finished his set at about 11:20 or 11:30, so Axl going on at midnight was not at all a stretch. did it make for a long night? absolutely. got home at 3am. But it wasn't his typical "going on late thing". I recall in 91 we waited a good couple hours or more between opener and GNR. 

    Guns N' Replacements. That's awesome.
