In no particular order:

1 Motley Crue 2/16/90 Oakland, CA- The best concert ever! I was in love with the Crue and was so excited to see them. Memorable moments: Tommy Lee's ass!

2 Gun's n' Roses/Metallica 8-21-92 Oakland- Two of my favorite bands together. Metallica kicked GnR's ass! I also remember my friend being totally wasted and I didn't get home from the concert til around 4 am and my parents were so PISSED!

3 Guns n' Roses 4-3-93 Sacramento- Not the best concert ever but I will always remember it. I had finally worked my way up towards the front of the stage and then some asshole threw a bottle I think and it hit Duff in the head. END of concert. :mad: They were only like halfway through.

4 Stevie Nicks 12-9-01 San Francisco- I got to shake hands with Stevie! :blob1: I remember holding onto her arm with my other hand and I kept thinking, "Let the poor woman go." :laugh:

5 Fleetwood Mac 7-6-03 Sacramento- Wow! My first time seeing the Mac. I was just in awe as I made my way down to my seat which was in 6th row center. And then security was really easy going so basically anyone could go up to the stage so I went up there and stood right in front of Stevie's mic. And she SMILED at ME! It was so cool. :)

4.Stevie Nicks-Smirnoff Music Centre Dallas, TX-Aug 3,2001

3.David Lee Roth/Cinderella-Maxwell Convention Center Tulsa, OK-1987 (Steve Vai was DLR's guitarist then and he made me forget about good ol' Edward Van Halen)

2.Iron Maiden/Vinnie Vincent Invasion-Expo Square Pavilion Tulsa, OK-Jan 1987 (The loudest show I have EVER attended...Was left deaf for 2 days afterwards...)

1.(tie) Fleetwood Mac-The Ford Center Oklahoma City, OK-July 1,2003/Paul McCartney-The Ford Center Oklahoma City, OK-Oct.15,2002 (Need I say more)

3. Springsteen, Coliseum, L.A. 1984

2. Fleetwood Mac, Irvine Meadows, L.A. 1982


I would've thought you'd picka Tusk tour show as your favorite Fleetwood MAc concert. What was so great about IM LA, 1982. Did you have front row or something.

Hawkeye
11-12-2004, 12:28 AM
Unfortunutly I have not yet seen 5 concerts. Once I do, I'll put them in order. I've still got 3 more to go to reach that number.

I would've thought you'd picka Tusk tour show as your favorite Fleetwood MAc concert. What was so great about IM LA, 1982.It's the most powerful, enjoyable show I ever saw Fleetwood give. I had to choose it as one of my Top 5.

How about the best ones of the last couple years?Except for a Fleetwood Mac concert last year & a couple of Stevie Nicks shows (& I certainly wouldn't pick any of that stuff as favorites), I haven't seen any rock concerts recently. I've kind of stopped going.

Sheesh, this is difficult...as I love every single concert I've been too.

1. FM - Birmingham, England (My first England show....LB came out with a vengance and we made a serious connection that show. Hee!)

2. NKOTB - Dallas, Texas (My first concert, EVER. I was so excited to see Joe McIntyre. My mom and I had 14th row for that one!)

3. FM - Dallas, Texas (My first FM show...my adrenaline was off the charts during the entire show!)

4. Michael W. Smith - Dallas, Texas (DC Talk opened the show and WOW, I became hooked on them immediately. Smitty gave a terrific performance too!)

5. Keith Urban - Grand Prairie, Texas (He sang two of my fave songs and gave an amazing performance! After the show, he came out to say hello to us. :)

Dangit, I forgot the Houston FM show, which was greatness because Lindsey and I made connections again, I gave him the book and poster I made and people tell me I was on the giant screen....and he showed the book to Stevie...yeah, well, I didn't see either of those things, dammit. LOL

11-12-2004, 10:31 AM
Five? Wow, that's gonna be hard to narrow down to just five....

1. KISS - December 7, 1977, St. Louis, Checkerdome - My first - you never forget your first!

2. Stevie Nicks - TISL tour - 2nd night in Vegas at the Aladdin. Front row. Got my pic taken holding hands with Stevie. I had a dream last nite that one of my bosses received an invitation for a Mac New Year's Eve concert at the Aladdin for this year, which included 10 tickets. It was a corporate show for Hertz. Of course, he gave it to me, and I was squealing with glee!

3. The Who - Stevie Ray Vaughan opened for 'em. Dallas, TX - Cottonbowl - around 1989?

4. Pink Floyd - San Antonio, TX - Alamodome - 1992-ish?

5. The Rolling Stones - Steel Wheels tour - San Antonio - Alamodome - 199?.

Guess I need to go thru my ticket stubs for the exact dates...if I do that, I'll probably change my mind too! :nod:

I know what you mean, David. I used to go to several each year when I was younger, but I don't really want to spend the $$ anymore :distress:

That being said:

1. FM L.A. rehearsal Culver City Studios 4/26/03 - I'll never forget hearing everything live before the tour actually started :nod:

2. Family Values Tour HSBC Arena Buffalo, NY 2001/2 (?) STP, Staind, Linkin Park: Not because it was so good, but because Weiland was such a d*ck - he was high as a kite & really disrespecting fans. :mad: You said memorable, not good!

3. SN Cuyahoga Falls, OH 7/01 - the only Stevie solo show I've been to. I absolutely loved it.

4. ZZ Top & Black Crowes Buffalo Memorial Auditorium 1989/90 (?) It was just a really awesome show, I wasn't even that big of a fan, but my friends & I still talk about how good it was. We had a blast.

5. Tesla & Jackyl at The Funhouse (a small club in Lackawanna, NY)2002/3 (?) - just incredible; small venue, the band was tight, good sound. I'd pay to go see them again in a heartbeat (I mean Tesla - hubby is the Jackyl fan, not me!)

I saw that!! :wavey: You were maybe five feet away from me before they opened the gates, too -- why in the world didn't I say hi? I'm such a dork.

I'd make a list, but I only have three so far, lol! FM Dallas '03 was the best, though -- I had my wisdom teeth out the week before and I was still on pain meds and xanax... I don't remember much of the concert, but I know I had a good time :nod:

David doesn't want to go to rock shows anymore because he'd want to swat all the young hooligans with his cane and/or newspapers and grumble under his breath about wanting tawny port, his smoking jacket, and the new issue of the Atlantic Monthly.

Also, Bruce Springsteen recorded the late Sept/Early Oct 1985 shows from the Coliseum in L.A. (Wished the professional versions of these shows would appear in the trading circles.)

1. Metallica & Guns N Roses - My friend and I were at the Three Rivers Stadium up in the second level of seats talking about how we would do anything to get floor seats when a nice man and his son came up to us and asked if we would trade tickets with him. We ended up 13 rows back center floor and the show was amazing! Metallica rocked harder than I have ever heard a band rock before and Guns N Roses were kick a**. I was 14 at the time and it was my first concert and the first time I realized that chicks took off their tops to be on the jumbo screen. LOL.
2. Fleetwood Mac - The Dance Tour - September, 1997 Pittsburgh PA, Post Gazette Pavilion. I just watched The Dance on MTV and was blown away at these 5 wonderful musicians and the chemistry they still had. I bought the cd and went to the concert and never looked back since. Great, great show!!
3. Stevie Nicks - Enchanted Tour - June 6, 1998, Pittsburgh, PA, Post Gazette Pavilion. My first solo Stevie show ever. I had 9th row on the right side and got up front at the end and it was amazing. Outside the Rain made my night and I cried when I heard HAEWAFY. Stevie rocked the house!!
4. Stevie Nicks - Trouble In Shangri-la Tour July 6, 2001, Pittsburgh PA, Post Gazette Pavilion. I couldnt believe she opened the tour in my city. I love Stevie and Sheryl and this concert just blew me away. I will never forget the feeling I felt when the TISL opener started. AMAZING. Before the show I got the mail and noticed a package from Warner Brothers and found out that I won a Stevie autographed tambourine and lyric booklet. I almost cried I was soo excited.
5. Fleetwood Mac Say You Will Tour - May 10 Pittsburgh PA for the emotion of the experience. Say Goodbye was the best I have ever heard and Beautiful Child blew me away the first time I got to hear it live.
Fleetwood Mac - Say You Will Tour - September 20 Toronto. I got 2nd row seats 5 days before the show and then got my ticket signed by Lindsey at the show. The band rocked soo hard and it was great. I will never forget that show. Toronto was soo happy to have the Mac in their town.
Fleetwood Mac - Say You Will Tour - September 12, Camden NJ. Next to the last stop on the tour and it was the best I have ever heard of them. Each experience was different but this was the best. I got to hear Sara live and I almost lost it. That song is my life and I will never forget that moment. Long live the Mac.

Yeah, why didn't you say hi!! Ah well, there's always the next FM concert, right? :)

The Dallas '04 show was memorable because my mom and I were in the 2nd row and we rushed up to the stage. My mom had a blast and we got LB's autograph on my OOTC and BN LP's.

I saw that tour at Rich Stadium in Buffalo (Orchard Park)when I was 16. I went with a bunch of friends, but it's a shame I remember the party in the parking lot more than the show. I was not that drunk/high (or was I...), but I barely remember being there. I'm pissed about that.

1.) Fleetwood Mac: HP Pavilion, San Jose CA - 6/29/04. 5th row on the floor, best seats I've had for any FM/SN concert! :nod: I saw two '03 shows and two '04, and everything from the setlist to Stevies hair was better in 2004!

2.) Stevie Nicks: Shoreline Amphitheater, Mountain View CA - 8/98. 8th (9th?) row, center stage. First (but not last :o ) time I've ever gotten teary eyed at a concert...

3.) Fleetwood Mac: Hollywood Bowl, Hollywood CA - 10/97. Seats weren't so great; center stage, but almost halfway back (and HB is huge!) But it was my first Mac concert with Lindsey (and the ticket was free!) so I couldn't complain...

4.) Depeche Mode: Shoreline Amphitheater, Mountain View CA - 8/01. Probably not many DM fans here, but they put on one of the most amazing, intense live performances I've ever seen! :nod: I've never felt that much energy from a crowd; FM/SN shows included!

5.) Erasure: Civic Auditorium, San Francisco CA - 3/21/03. Ditto on this one. It was general admission, and I was right up against the stage and got to shake hands, get autographs, etc. All that stuff I've never been able to do at a Stevie show... :distress:

1.Lindsey Buckingham~~OOTC Tour New Britain,CT THe Sting March 25,1993~~General Admission~~Front row, got to shake his hand, touch him and his guitar and have him hover above me for two songs!! Loved that show so much!!!
2.Stevie Nicks~~Mix Fest Boston, Mass on the Common October 12, 1996~~Free General Admission~~Several acts that day~~it was cold but awesome to see Stevie outdoors and doing a mini set which included Twisted! I was up front and my friend videotaped the show!
3.Stevie Nicks~~Enchanted Tour Hartford,CT The Meadows May 27, 1998. From the third row~~Great opening act Boz Scaggs. Golden Braid, Sleeping Angel and Enchanted in the set was too cool! She looked great and the set was like a fairy tale.
4.Fleetwood Mac~~Say You Will Tour~~Of all five shows I saw ( three in 2003 and two in 2004), My favorite has to be on the sidelines close to Lindsey's side of the stage at the Arena At Harbor Yard here in Bridgeport, CT Sept. 27, 2003. Lindsey was really primed up and wild!
5.Journey~~Detour 2004~~Mohegan Sun Arena~~Uncasville,CT Sept. 1,2004. On the side lines, close to Jonathan Cain's side. I have loved them for years about as long as my Mac obsession. Finally got to see them. The drummer Deen Castronovo is a kick A$$ drummer and singer! Can't wait to see them again.

Boston 1/7/79 Lakeland Civic Center, Lakeland, Florida. 7 of us spent two weeks partying and traveling from Key West up the East Coast to Daytona Beach writing bad checks.

Bob Segar 4/5/80 Tangerine Bowl, Orlando, Florida. Great show and crowd.

Heart 5/18/81 Tangerine Bowl. I got separated from friends and didn’t see them again for days.

Rolling Stones 10/25/81 Tangerine Bowl. Huge crowd of party animals.

Molly Hatchet 12/4/83 Tom’s Point After Lounge. Union Park, Florida. Coke, coke and more coke. I don’t remember what USFL Football team showed up but they started hitting on the local girls and a huge fight broke out. Police raid with dogs and teargas shot into the lounge. The good old days.

Bad Man Competition 4/6/84 Orlando Sports Arena. Beat the living **** out of a guy any way you want and it’s legal. Lots of beer and topless woman. Police raided the show and there was a riot. The arena never opened again.

Now to the real music.

Stevie Nicks w/ Peter Frampton 8/8/86 Ocean Center, Daytona Beach, Florida. A buddy and I met two women on the beach from California that had just returned from Columbia South America. They had a trash bag full of coca leaves. We hung out in front of The Ocean Deck Bar drinking beer, smoking and chewing on coca leaves all day. I’ve never screwed a woman for so long in my life. The concert was sold out and an amazing show. We chewed more leaves afterwards LOL.

Fleetwood Mac 11/4/87 Leon County Civic Center. Tallahassee, Florida. I bought a brand new truck that morning and drove 4 hours to the show. First concert totally straight. Didn’t want to wreck my truck. They rocked the place.

Stevie Nicks 9/8/01 Sovereign Center, Reading, PA. The first Stevie concert I’ve ever been to and understood how it felt to be enchanted by Stevie in a way only Stevie can. An elderly fellow walking outside asked me “What the hell just happened in there with a daze in his eyes. He was possessed and Stevie owned him LOL. It was the grand reopening for the center so the crowd was all ages. Super friendly town and good hearted people. God that was a great show. Stevie rocked that place to the bone. The next day the town was still in shock.

There were many concerts in between this list but I can’t remember a damn thing. Oh I know how to sneak into Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. Went to a lot of concerts there but only to get laid by horny young tourist girls. What is it about young girls on vacation? They so hawney. :shrug:

I would have to add the May 1,1990 Queensryche/Suicidal Tendencies concert in Tulsa, OK (Expo Square Pavilion) to my list of concerts ya cant forget...Mainly cause Queensryche had an "offnight" and were so boring to watch (Even though they played "Operation:Mindcrime" in its entirety) that I walked on 'em as they played (Never happened before or since).

Suicidal Tendencies (With the future Metallica bassist Rob Trujillo) on the otherhand MURDERED the crowd, Talk about moshpit deluxe, The barriers in front of the stage were battered with fans trying to take flight to the stage. Hell I got the living **** kicked outta the back of my head (I saw stars!!!) by some a-hole's Doc Marten's as he tried to clear us front row 'bangers...So I had my bud's in security (Who the metalhead clique I hung with knew on a first name basis) lift me over the barrier to escape the madness that ensued to only discover I had some blood trickling down my head.

How I forgot this show is beyond me, Maybe still feeling some post-concussion syndrome :shrug:

I just counted all my ticket stubs. I keep the ones I didn’t lose in a book. From 1975-2003. 73 concerts. 8 Fleetwood Mac and 12 Stevie. Not including the Disney ones and concerts I used to go to at The Peabody Hotel in Orlando. They had sunset serenade shows every other weekend by the swimming pool. I saw Firefall, Hall+Oats, Billy Thorp, Foreigner, and a bunch of others at this place. Now I’m old and wrinkled. :rolleyes:

Boston 1/7/79 Lakeland Civic Center, Lakeland, Florida. 7 of us spent two weeks partying and traveling from Key West up the East Coast to Daytona Beach writing bad checks.

Bob Segar 4/5/80 Tangerine Bowl, Orlando, Florida. Great show and crowd.

Heart 5/18/81 Tangerine Bowl. I got separated from friends and didn’t see them again for days.

Rolling Stones 10/25/81 Tangerine Bowl. Huge crowd of party animals.

Molly Hatchet 12/4/83 Tom’s Point After Lounge. Union Park, Florida. Coke, coke and more coke. I don’t remember what USFL Football team showed up but they started hitting on the local girls and a huge fight broke out. Police raid with dogs and teargas shot into the lounge. The good old days.

Bad Man Competition 4/6/84 Orlando Sports Arena. Beat the living **** out of a guy any way you want and it’s legal. Lots of beer and topless woman. Police raided the show and there was a riot. The arena never opened again.

Now to the real music.

Stevie Nicks w/ Peter Frampton 8/8/86 Ocean Center, Daytona Beach, Florida. A buddy and I met two women on the beach from California that had just returned from Columbia South America. They had a trash bag full of coca leaves. We hung out in front of The Ocean Deck Bar drinking beer, smoking and chewing on coca leaves all day. I’ve never screwed a woman for so long in my life.

I’m not sure if security is the same now, but my most memorable adventure was in the fake woods on The Jungle Cruise ride.

It was at night and I took this fine young darling behind a barrier and down into the fake woods. We walked into the woods further then I thought and started doing the Bubaaloo. A boat full of tourists came around the corner shining it’s light in the woods as part of the show. The light hit us screwing and the operator said “Sorry folks that’s not part of our show.” He sure kept that light shining on us though. Damn those were the fun years.

I hope you weren’t the one that gave me crabs. If it was you? “I’d like some more.”

(1) Fleetwood Mac, Knoxville, TN, Sept. 2003---First time they had ever played K-Town. Front row in front of Lindsey, got my Buckingham Nicks album signed, talked to Lindsey, played his guitar, got his towel----best night of my life!!!!!!!!!!!

(2) Paul McCartney, Raleigh, NC, Oct. 2002, I saw Paul from the front row center with my best friend. WOW! I still can't believe I was that close to a Beatle. He still sounds fabulous; just like he always has!

(3) Fleetwood Mac, Memphis, TN, Nov. 1997, It was the reunion, of course. I was third row center at the Pyramid. It was magic!!!!!!!!!!!

(4) Fleetwood Mac, Nashville, TN, May 2004, Front row in front of Lindsey, got to talk to him, and he signed my Go Insane album. Great second time, front row experience.

(5) It is a tie: (a) Prince, Knoxville, TN, April 2004, I was on the 18th row, the concert was great. My friend and I went to the after party, and he came out into the crowd for awhile. We got to see him really, really close up. That was really cool.

and (b) Madonna, Atlanta, GA, July 2004, That concert was a real show. Besides Madonna herself, we had all these dancers, videos, elaborate stage construction, costumes, etc. That made it just even more amazing!!!!

These are all Mac related. I guess not any surprise.

1. Madison, WI May 8th 2004. It was my birthday. :woohoo: I had front row right in front of Lindsey. ;) I was his 'Come Girl" and I got his towel and it was just a great night over all :xoxo: despite the fact that I almost ran him over in the hotel driveway. :eek:

2. Phoenix, AZ Dec. 6th, 2001 This was the Stevie Nicks and Friends benefit for the Arizona Heart Institute. I had front row and it was my first front row show ever. I really got an eye full :shocked: ;) of Stevie! I got to meet her and get autographs after the show.

3. Los Angeles. CA July 12, 2003. This was my first trip to LA. I had attended the show the night before and had second row. I went to the box office the evening of the show and got front row! This was a dream come true. My seat was right in front of Stevie but I ditched her and stood in front of Lindsey. :laugh: He pointed me out during the show. I was embarassed but it was a good thing. I had no idea that I was going to be there so I did not bring anything to be signed. I had Lindsey sign my ticket. He did a really bad job and said " Gee, thats not very good is it"? DUH! I have that ticket right here on my computer desk.

4. Camden, NJ Sept 12, 2004 This was the next to the last show of the SYW tour and it was my last. It was very emotional show for the fans and for the band. Enough said.

5. Boston, MA March 1993 I am not 100% sure of the date. It was on a Friday I know that much. Lindsey on his OOTC tour. I was too shy to go up to the front so I was kind of in the middle but I had a great time. I had such a great time that I wanted to go to CT the next night but it was not meant to be. :(

Honorable mention

Boston, MA Sept 23 and 24th

The first show was the LIB taping the next night was the actually show. I was near the front near LB on both nights. I played LB's guitar the second night for the first time. It is not in the video thankfully. They used the first night footage for that and I was totally squished that night. It is funny because on the LIB video you can a section of us die hard fans all together in the same row. On the second night we had to stay near out seats until we were let up around Rhiannon I think.

Chicago, IL Sept 15, 2003

Lindsey's Soundstage. Amazing! Can't believe that I was actually there. :) I am still waiting for the video Lindsey. :p

In no particular order:

1. Fleetwood Mac, Hartford, CT 9/97- opening night of The Dance tour. Awesome show, everyone was spot on!

2. Jazz Passengers with Debbie Harry, '94 in New York- Very interesting show. A lot of improv and on-the-spot stuff; loved it.

3. Fleetwood Mac, Boston, MA 9/24/03- Best Mac show I've attended. The band and the crowd were both in overdrive.

4. Blondie, Boston, 5/04- All I can say is that it was fabulous. Awesome and rare songs and her voice is still pristine.

5. Aimee Mann, Northampton, MA, 9/00- LOVE her. Did almost every song from Magnolia, plus a bunch of old tunes. She's captivating.

That venue in Hartford sucks, but it has much better sound than the Mansfield one, IMO. Back in '97, I was so happy to be seeing them that I didn't really pay any attention to anything else. :laugh:

Already a fan of The Bondies...how is Auf Der Maur? Haven't heard anything yet but am highly curious.

Auf Der Maur - not that great. I saw them twice this year, at that show and at the Curiousa Festival. Don't get me wrong, Melissa Auf Der Maur is an awesome bassist, and not a bad singer, she just doesn't hold your attention very well, her lyrics leave a lot to be desired, etc. It wasn't awful, but you know...it wasn't great.

11-17-2004, 06:47 PM
First few are in order the rest are random.

1. FM Live in Boston show for DVD, I managed to get up front in front of Stevie's mic with just 2 pp in front of me. I still can't believe it! What a magical night.

2. Stevie during Enchanted tour in July '98 in Phoenix for AHI benefit. The AHI folks had not worked out the kinks yet and I did NOT get to meet Stevie at the after party which was the whole reason I went! However, the show was amazing because I had a front row seat. Stevie came to take my hand first during Edge and grabbed both of them, wowza!!

3. Woodstock '94. Most memorable were Melissa Etheridge, Sheryl Crow, Joe Cocker (was right up front, crazy!), and the bad ass Metallica who no one could touch. Their sound was incredible. That was no accident because their sound check was like a half hour long, they are pros. Also, the first thing I saw when I got there was Jackyl on stage and the lead singer had his pants around his ankles. No, I'm not kidding. I was like, "I'm at Woodstock, man." Hehe.

4. Susan Tedeschi at the Ranch House (we call it the Raunch House). This is a dive bar on the south shore of MA but she packed the place and the energy was crazy, you just knew things were really going to happen for her. I forget the year cuz I'm terrible with linear time (a quality I share with La Nicks) but the following year I saw her at the Fleet Boston pavilion which is significantly larger and more prestigious!!

5. Heart this summer at Fleet Boston. Ann can still wail, Nancy is still smokin and can play her ass off. That show was sooooo good.

6. Nancy Wilson solo, it was such an intimate show at the Paradise. It was surreal to see her in a tiny venue!!

7. No Doubt at Avalon in Boston. Again a small club and you just knew Gwen was going to be huge. The energy was crazy!! I made it down front but I was wearing clogs, which I didn't think would be a problem. Until the band started and everyone started jumping up and down! I was like, "What the?" I felt so old!

8. Joan Osbourne, again at Avalon. The woman has soul.

9. Guns n Roses and Sound Garden in the early 90s. We waited for 2 hours for Guns to start. Meanwhile the camera operators kept the crowd entertained by encouraging women to flash. That was different. I thought Chris Cornell was a total freak. That was when he had the long hair and all the facial hair. He did this thing where he whipped his head around in a circle and his hair was going all over the place, he looked positively demonic!!!

10. Monsters of Rock back in the day. I loved Scorpions and could not believe how good they sounded. Even though they were kind of a cheesy band, their sound was really great and I always loved that singer's voice. I did almost pass out from the heat though, man was it hot that day! And I was so cool in the back of my friend's tranny, hehe. Crazy days, man.

11. Tom Petty at the Fleet Center a couple of years ago. He is soo awesome live you have to see him. And he has such heart.

I've been to TONS of shows!

I feel VERY lucky to have either attended the exact same shows (Dallas with Gerald, FM in London), or seen some of the other bands mentioned on the same tour.

Since we're going past 5 - I've got a few more:

1. Pearl Jam opening for the Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Coliseum, Austin, TX - 1991-ish? Eddie Vedder climbed up the scaffolding like a monkey. This was when a lot of people had not even heard of Pearl Jam.

2. Guns and Roses-1991-The only truly sold out show I've ever attended at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin. Our seats were behind the stage. We saw Axl Rose changing clothes, and his tighty-whities! I circled around the entire arena during Live and Let Die. Good times.

3. Def Leppard's first US tour, opening for the Scorpions and Ted Nugent. WOW!

Was that the tour with Faith No More? My husband saw that show (mainly for Metallica and F.N.M.) and said that Axl acted like a spoiled brat and left the stage refusing to play the rest of the set for some stupid, minor thing. GNR was a great band, too bad they couldn't hold it together.

happened at nearly all of the 1991-1992 US tour stops...

The cool thing is that some shows were recorded professionally for the band to use, Such as the OKC '92 show (I love this show, Axl was in a great mood and even sung a few verses of the song "Oklahoma" from the musical)...Which has about 40 minutes of "Boob" shots before GNR took the stage to "It's So Easy" & played for almost 3 hours. This show was the ONLY post-AFD headline show GNR EVER played where "Welcome To The Jungle" was not included in the set (Due to a technical snafu)

The funny thing was the opening act in OKC, Unlike cities where Soundgarden, Skid Row & Faith No More were the opening act, the OKC show openers were a then unknown group from Chicago named the Smashing Pumpkins (!!!)

The funny thing was the opening act in OKC, Unlike cities where Soundgarden, Skid Row & Faith No More were the opening act, the OKC show openers were a then unknown group from Chicago named the Smashing Pumpkins (!!!)

Kewwwl. I do like GnR too. I failed to mention that their show totally KICKED ASS. Axl was in a good mood that night too and he ran all over the stage in his little biker shorts, ahhhhh, them were the days ;)

I saw GNR too. They were touring with Metallica. They were awesome. Both of them. The only thing is GNR cut the concert alittle short because someone threw a bottle onto the stage. Axl wasn't happy about that. :distress:

What a jackass. I hope the people around him saw him do it and kicked his ass! ;) Axl did a lot of talking that night. A lot of it was political. Of course I don't remember a word, should have taken notes!
