What a fucking show. :rockon :rockon :rockon :rockon :rockon

The support band, The Virgin Maries, were great, one of the few support groups I have actually enjoyed watching.

:slash2 came on at about two minutes to 9pm. He looked fucking ice cool and Myles Kennedy was in great voice.

All I can see is that was the 5th time I've seen Slash live in 6 years, and probably the best. He just looks so bloody cool and he actually enjoys what he does.

I was about 3 rows from the front. The crowd was absolutely bouncing and I got thrown about the pit something rotten. All good fun though. :D :rockon

The set list was brilliant with some surprise erections in there.  :rockout

Ghost
Mean Bone
Nightrain
Dirty Little Thing
Back from Cali
Beggars & Hangers On
Civil War
Rocket Queen
Fall To Pieces
Sucker Train Blues
Nothing To Say
Starlight
Watch This
Slash guitar solo
Godfather Theme :rockon :rockon :rockon
Sweet Child O' Mine
Rise Today
Slither
Communication Breakdown
Paradise City


CD's of the gig were available to purchase beforehand for £20. I didn't get one because I didn't have the time to wait 20 minutes after the gig as I had to get the last train asap (which I got on with 2 minutes to spare as it was...). Kinda wish I did now though, seeing the disgusting amount they ae going for on eBay.  >:(

(But maybe Sneeks will be kind enough to send me the mp3's ;))

I took loads of photos and videos, none of which I've uploaded as of yet. I will get round to it eventually.

All y'all need to know is that it was a cracker of a show and I well and truly advise you seeing him if he's playing near you. :rockon

You could have paid for the CD and had it sent to you rather than wait around.

My own CD is in the post today  :rockon

Good setlist, I hope the CD mix is good.

Hurry up with the pics and videos  :P

Bloody hell I just checked ebay, these cd's are selling for close to £200!!!!

I don't want to sell, I bought it because it is limited edition and that's why I want to keep it.

It would appear the audio version of this show is available on Youtube, so I'm downloading the whole damn thing.

From what I've heard so far, the band sounds absolutely freaking fantastic! :rockout
