Review
Just got back from Moline (2:40 minute drive in which I almost
ran out of gas it is 2:53 AM)....
I had great seats thanks to a swap with Holtz. Fourth row
on Buckets side. They played the same songs they've been playing...I'm
sure we'll sort out the exact order later on...but a few notes.
Richord Fortus' birthday. He impressed me the most. Talk about
a step up from Paul! I think he is better than Gilby and puts
forth more energy onstage than Izzy appeared to from the videos
I've watched of those days.
Axl sporting a Tennessee football jersey until the encore
when he wears a hockey jersey for whatever team plays in that
arena. Bucket head wearing all black with a navy blue apron
tied around his neck like a cape. Robin in black. Dizzy sporting
a gnr tank top.
Straight in Jungle...no intro video. Also no intro video for
Out Ta Get Me later on in the night. After Brownstone Axl
suggested that the crowd not throw stuff as they had some
problems at a previous show where somebody hit the lighting
board.
During You Could be Mine Axl was making a gesture with his
hand and a ring flew off and into the crowd which prompted
Axl to yell for Earl (during the song) and point him to the
place where it landed. The security couldn't figure out who
had it, even though Axl knew and was pointing the whole time.
He got very pissed off that he had to keep yelling during
the song. He ended up running offstage and then finishing
the song sitting down and off to the side.
Axl started My Michelle with the second verse. When he got
to the part where he was supposed to do the second verse he
sort of mumbled through the words realizing his mistake.
Extended Paradise City Guitar jam as Axl had Fortus play the
solos at the end instead of Buckethead.
Not a very good crowd. Place hold 10,000 and there was hardly
anyone up in the second bowl. Didn't seem to get any reaction
on the solos or Madagascar.
Chinese got a little applause.
That is it for this write up...I may do something a little
more formal later on, but I'm tired and Chicago is tomorrow.
See you all on tour."
