what a surprise...

Just watching the footage on the BBC website-is he singing over a bloody backing track?

[Vieuphoria]

Don't think so. But Cypress Hill did... which pissed me off as i thought they'd have their live band. HOWEVERRRRRR, they were still incredible. And the crowd were Hiiiiiiii-laaaaaaar-eous! Everyone was suddenly a gansta.... no matter how white/middle clas syou were.... made me laugh.

I agree with those who said it was all Izzy. For me without Izzy or Axl it's not GnR. The hat brought a lovely aesthetic.... but the guitar style is easily imitatable.

Oh dear, looks like the Irish didn't appreciate waiting for 90 mins for him to come on

Looks like the lucky ones are people who watched them at Leeds and got a good deal and gave him the love he needs! Seriously though, he cannot afford to messing everyone about like this, he needs to hit the stage within 15-30 mins of stage time.

They did come back out and play the full set though I guess its not too great watching aband that doesn't finish until 1am when you have to get up for work the next day or get home by public transport.

i agree with your first point. He clearly doesn't give a f**k.

But yes it is Guns N Roses. This is GnR, it's not going to change because you bitch about it. Get over it, buy Chinese Democracy and giv a good listen.

Although Axl is a complete dick as we all know, when I heard the news about the Dublin gig I thought why wait an hour for him to come on then ruin it by bottling him off? Wether he's late or not throwing bottles is shit and isn't going to make the situation any better.

No band should put up with being bottled off & are perfectly within their right to walk. As far as GnR being late on stage, if you didn't expect that you've either been living in a cave for 20 years or are incredibly naive 'They've been famously late for the majority of careers but now they're playing Dublin I'm sure they'll be on time'

Treat the crowd like pricks and you can expect them to do it back to you.
