Thanks for the updates! It's been a while since Street of Dreams and Sorry were not played at a show.

they haven't played sorry for a while...I don't think they played it at all in vegas or in any of their shows after vegas.

[JeffK]

Sucks that they took civil war out...it's my favorite song and they play it so well live!

You're right. The last time they played Sorry was at the last european show in Palma de Mallorca, Spain which I actually attended.
I don't know about Street of Dreams, I can't even remember the last time it wasn't played.

Thanks for the updates! It's been a while since Street of Dreams and Sorry were not played at a show.

I do think it's a shame that these weren't played, 2 of the most brilliant songs off Chinese Democracy and easily 2 of my favourites.

Guns N' Roses kick off tour with explosive show

Sydney Morning Herald ‎- 5 minutes ago



It would be so easy to write-off Guns N' Roses and slam their Perth Arena show that kicked off their Australian tour.

Many of their fans often do just that when they argue the band can't be considered the same group anymore as only one member still remains from the original hit-making line-up.

While infamous tales of delayed performances and hostile attitude towards the audience don't exactly sell tickets.

But Saturday night in Perth, Axl Rose and his band steadily eased fears of a potential GN'R catastrophe with what was essentially ? and surprisingly for this reviewer - a great rock show.

Blasting out an array of hits from the band's incredible debut Appetite For Destruction to tracks from the last album 2008's Chinese Democracy, the output was one that brought the best out from their musicians ; especially the trio of lead guitarists.

Welcome To The Jungle, Sweet Child O' Mine and Patience were all there and well received even if at times it was hard to hear Rose's vocals over the cheering crowd.

But an explosive cover of Live And Let Die and an extensive Knockin' On Heaven's Door were highlights of the night.

But the quality of the music can't be denied, and the level of Rose's vocals aside - which faded at times only to come back near perfectly later ? the band sounded great.

Rose particularly impressed when they wheeled out the piano for him on November Rain.

nice review

would <3 2 hear lald *hunting youtube*

[CBGNR]

    I always get a kick out of the crowd drowning out the vocals part of reviews.Of coarse when  thousands of people start singing at once its kinda hard to compete.It must be a good feeling for the band when the audience is really into a performance.

[GypsySoul]

THANKS RON!!! (and thanks to philthy151 who took n' shared the video!!!)
