Title: Your Favorite GN'R Moment in 2006
Post by: J. Rose on December 24, 2006, 04:01:35 AM
I thought this might be a fun topic to talk about as the year is coming to a close.? ?;D

Well yea, the headline says it all.? It could be an Axl Moment, GN'R Moment, or a personal experience, anything.

Mine would be a toss up between the leaks and seeing them perform live (and personally) for the first time in S.F.? :hihi:

Sorry if this threads been done already.

If I stopped to pick one moment it would be the first time I heard Better as a whole.

Axl on the radio although Tommy grabbing the mic in Axl's hand to yell at a fan was a GNR first.  I don't think anybody has ever tried to take the mic out of Axl's hand.  The guy has some balls or was lost in the moment and is still apologizing.

For me, theres really too many to name....besides seeing them 3 times, one of the most exciting things were just knowing that something was happening in Axl land. When he showed up at the Korn party, that's what started it all, then the shows in NY, the interview ect, ect. Bring on '07!

The way that my heart pounded when I heard the opening riffs to WELCOME to THE JUNGLE at the Hammerstein Ballroom and almost falling over the rail several times because I was so excited! Having a small picture of me from that night show up in  Rolling Stone Magazine right underneath Axl's microphone!(THANKYOU Jennaside!) And being invited to go in like a VIP by some very nice people at the JOINT in Las Vegas!

Seeing those first pics of Axl back in February/March.
Listening to the leaks.
Watching RIR 5 on my computer (first GNR show I watched live since RIR 3).
Seeing them live at Hammersmith in London.

What's the weather outside? LIke 17 degrees? You guys are some tough motherfuckers, back in Indiana, I'd be gettin' the fuck outta dodge. (Axl - Target Center 12.02.06)

Hearing the opening notes of "Jungle" at the Hammerstein on the 12th...seeing Axl 20 ft from me on stage....seeing Ron's debut with the band...hearing "Better" live.

Yes, I count all that as one moment.    :hihi:

Sorry if this threads been done already.

My favourite moment of 2006 has to be seeing GNR @ Donnington, UK. Hadn't seen em since 91 @ Wembley,UK with Skid Row and NIN.  Also, the fact Baz and Izzy were there just blew me away.  Leaks have been a high point too, probably still listen to Live Era more if I never had them which is worth getting if you like GNR especially good Live tracks on it.

Happy Xmas and New year to all Gunners EVERYWHERE and especially a thank you to the guys behind AXL that made 2006 what it is. Thank You.

1. The leaks.
2. Successful World Tour (21 Countries, 70 concerts)
3. CD release date announcement!

Here's to next year and March 6th, 2007!   :beer:

Their Return in NYC, it was incredible atmosphere!!

CD release date and the letter!!

Going from not having a guitar player (not knowing who it was), to having an awesome guy getting very integrated into the band and having a lot of fan interaction!

Seeing Izzy jam and have a blast!!!

Seeing GNR come back to LA for the first time in years and ROCK the house every time!!!

 :beer:

Overall, probably the initial Izzy return in NYC back in May. People were crying n' shit. It was that important to them.

For me, with a bias, gotta be the Tampa show. Seeing the Guns in person!

At the Edmonton show half way thru brownstone he threw a fan out.  i know that would really suck to get thrown out but obviously the guy got thrown out for a reason (crowd surfing when axl was telling the crowd to move back) but before the show i was secretly hoping he would chuck a fan out lol.

another Great moment for me was finally seeing them in LA!!! very sweet! i had been waiting since the cancelled show in 2002 for them to return!!

p.s. also realizing that they changed the sound guy and the sound was actually really good now!
