Bucket List!

@MajorRage yea I've been keeping an eye on the set lists from this tour, they look alright. Might have to go when they get to Aus

You won't regret it. They nailed they setlist for me. Didn't play Fuel for a start, and the only additional song I would have like to see was Hit The Lights. But did get Seek & Destroy & Battery, so I can't complain ...
I wasn't aware they were heavily restricted on what they could play in China. Hetfield gave a great interview on that. Media were trying to really stir shit up about due to the censoring etc etc and I think were expecting fuck you style response, but he just said ..
“Why shouldn’t you respect their culture when you’re there as a guest and you’ve been invited to play? We want to be respectful, and just because we do things differently, it doesn’t mean it should be forced upon [others]. But hopefully we’ll keep coming back and they’ll realise we’re not a threat politically and we have no agenda except to cross boundaries with music and let people enjoy the songs. We’re not trying to bring a secret message to anybody.”

@mariner4life The kind of piston wristed gibbon that wanks on about huttites and then goes and spends an evening locked in a stadium with them?

@Bones bingo!
Don't forget "dressed like one"
-
@mariner4life That jacket is an abomination.

I guess I'm lucky in that the opinions of swarthy creeps with bad facial hair, pink shirts and rats tails don't bother me too much. It was a case of spot the person NOT on their phone. Just the way things are these days. I expect similar wankery from @Hooroo this Saturday hopefully minus the rain.
Axl looks just like Donald Trump these days. It's quite eerie. They opened with 'it's so easy' which no one guessed during the pre drinks but rocked straight into ' Mr Brownstone' after that. They did all the big hits ( except 'Patience' which didn't bother me as I think it's a crap song ) predictiably finishing with 'November Rain' and 'Paradise City' and completely bringing the house down. The gig was fucken brilliant although with the wind and sound issues there were a couple of crackly moments. Nice of Slash to give the other guitarist some leads and Duff sung a song too ( he's a bloody solid bass player ) Axls voice was amazingly almost as good as ever.
I still hate 'Knocking on heaven's door' but that gave me ample time to have a piss. Things didn't wrap up til nearly 12 so I'm expecting a few strongly worded comments on Stuff.co.nz complaining about that. Bloody good getting a park on Thorndon Quay too.

Although apparently in Daimond area, there are stalls just for people in that area which would be sweet child of mine!Looking forward to it. Was kind of surprised that it look like a predominately older crowd?

There was all ages really. Gotta remember that a 20 something year old who bought Appetite for Destruction ( still the biggest selling debut album of all time ) is 50 odd now.

@Bones it's like he's just walked off the set from being an extra on The Sopranos

@NTA when Dad says shall we go for a walk he'll say no thanks?
-
@taniwharugby he would want to erase the memory of getting whipped by his little sister in the walk back, while he cried like a little bitch.

Yeah, taking fashion tips from a feral who wears op shop suits to the races to try and look classy and sophisticated next to Queensland mongrels whilst sipping cheap champagne doesn't really work.
