Slash is amazing and carries the show. Axl looks bad and couldn't hit all of the high notes. He also kept disappearing backstage. I assume either to eat chicken wings or grab some oxygen. There was no opening act and the played for about 3 hours. Pink was in town and came out to sing one song with them.

All in all a good show.

I'm thinking of going to Houston to see them. Saw them back in the day but not this go round.

I saw Ryan Adams last night and that was very good.

He changes his attire several times throughout the show.

I think they were in Houston last summer? I heard they were great, though. And that Axle was, in fact, hitting all the notes.

Even sitting in the opposite end zone I could tell Axl was sweating like a fat guy in the Louisiana summer. I imagine his shirts got nasty pretty quick. He probably should have kept the leather jacket off too.

Maybe the tour has gone on too long, but their show at the Dome in New Orleans was was about the most positively reviewed show I've ever been to. Slash was phenomenal, but everybody was pretty shocked that Axl hit all the high notes and sounded like he did back in the day (especially on the "Welcome to the Jungle" intro which is captured on youtube well. Axl sounding that good shocked me because I had seen clips from him over the years before they reunited with Slash and co. where he sounded like total crap.

Saw them last year in Dallas, Great show. I didn't expect AR to hit all the notes. He let the crowd sing some. But overall a great show. The Cult opened which was a sweet bonus.

Not saying he didn't do his fair share, but Slash and Duff were champions when it came to using tat stuff. Escobar and the guys from Cali sent them thank you notes

I was at that show. Saw them a couple times already, but I think the San Antonio show was the best I've seen them. Thinking about Houston as well.
