More open air, nice weather but chance of rain.  Enjoy, Chicago is going to be blazing hot.

I m at Fenway, very hot and humid. I think GnR is supposed to take the stage at 7:30.

I’ve never even been that wet in the shower!
The show was awesome… Axl was amazing, voice was powerful. 
I’ve been to a lot of GNR shows and that was one of the best.
The absolute torrential rain made it even more special.
Axl talked a lot… they would’ve kept playing if not for the curfew.
He said “I’ve just been told we have time for one more.”
A friend sent me a picture of the set list preshow… it ended up being pretty close.  Interesting that one of the alternates was Back in Black… would’ve cool to hear that.

It was like being in the shower for 3 hours. The show was good but we didn't get Brownstown, Down on the farm and Don't cry.

You guys got lucky with the rain.  Chicago is so going to suck.  Going to be, hopefully, one of those shows were they spray the crowd with the fire hose every once in a while.     Maybe they only do that to the hippies.  It's really kind of fun.

That was quite a show, being on the railing actually made the water worse because it was pouring off of the roof over the stage. They sounded amazing... but it seemed like the water may have messed with Slash's rig a little, he had to swap out guitars twice during the set.

Even being waterlogged, this was one of my favorite shows yet.

Lol, I have tickets for Chicago as well torrential rain in Boston and then 100 degrees in Chicago, 2/2!
Also, it would be great if they bring back Coma!

Oh, I feel for you!  For the good of all, I wish they'd reschedule this one.  This ain't no way for the band to be on fire and the audience enjoying the heat.  If I were crew I'd be calling in sick.

I saw you taking pics in front of the stage, did you at least get a little cover from the rain that far forward? It felt like the water coming off the roof of the stage was coming from fire hoses just 2 people from the rail LOL.
