the bigger cities yes (NY/Boston/Chicago)

the smaller cities they'll get 35-40K to show up which will still be a win for the promoters

and all of them will have a TON of ticket giveaways, hell, giveaways for the Foxboro show started this morning on a couple of stations

Wow, that was a fanboy review.

I was surprised by the inclusion of two songs from Chinese Democracy. No interest in going until it can be confirmed that Axl can actually sing.

I read a few reports that indicated his voice didn't sound bad, but let's wait for a proper recording to surface.

Still, while I won't go to these shows, I'm a sucker for nostalgia and can't bring up much angst against this effort. Use Your Illusion II remains one of my fav CDs evah.

I think I remember when Chinese Democracy can out Slash said he thought the title song was good so that might explain it. That and Better were probably the two best songs so it makes sense.

Weren't those also potentially leftover from later Original GNR sessions?

This reads like G n' R erotic fiction in parts:
Duff wore a black vest and looked as if he'd just been on a yoga retreat; his lean bicep muscles were just about bursting out of his skin as he moved his arm down the fretboard. Even his facial muscles looked like they were toned.
