I like DJ, only thing is he does look like he's trying to be Slash. I know that was his image before he joined GNR but the top hat, smoking while he's playing and even his stance is similar, just invites criticism imo.

I can't handle the aping of Slash ...just can't do it. I may be more of an Axl nutswinger, but bringing in a Slash wannabe is too much for me.

When I saw the video from Reading and DJ was doing the Slash knee bob thing it kind of made me want to puke.

Nah, it's the knee bob he does when he's playing, ermmm, like this ....

...00:20 seconds. I know I might sound like a nit picker but that's always been a Slash thing to me.

It would seem reports that Axl was on fire vocally and the sound mix was perfect are dead on:

Wow... That was great. Can't get over how good TIL sounds now. It was pretty painful there for a while. DJ even plays the hell out of it. The crowd really perks up when he starts screaming. Makes me wish I was there.

The song sounds a helluva lot better with DJ doing his own thing with that solo. Mix was as good as you could've asked for (for once the vocals were hot)....

Great live performance of TIL...

Slash is the only one to hike his leg when he plays guitar. I've heard it all now.

9,000 at the gig. surprised tbh. even more surprised how well they all sounded. stood @ mixing desk & CD/Jungle were a little fuzzy after that it was really exceptional - the odyssey is usually terrible for sound but GnR were amazing. really great performance & good atmosphere..

Neal Schon, who started playing guitar in the late 60s, imitates Slash's leg kick, :20 to :30. What a poser.
