Re: Bergen, Norway - May 31, 2010 (Vestlandshallen)
Just got back from det show! Ears ringing and my back hurts! Had great time! the band played great, but from where i was standing Axl's vocals was very low, and some verses in in some songs I could barely hear him... Didn't talk much. Wasn't until November Rain that he said something like: "How u doin...?"
Later he said: "24 hrs ago I was sitting in LA thinking I'm fucked!"
Apparently he didn't land in Bergen until 20:15 tonight...
Soundcheck could do him some good!!
I had my Creative Vado HD with me. Will try to upload some videos and pics tomorrow. Never used it at gig before, so not sure how the sound will be. Not a good mic on it...
Off to Oslo tomorrow!

Everyone is missing the biggest news!
Axl is wearing a Free the West Memphis Three shirt!
It's cool to see him showing support for those guys, especially since one of them said he cried all throughout CD when he heard it in prison and it made him forget about the past 17 years of Hell he's had to endure.
Re: Bergen, Norway - May 31, 2010 (Vestlandshallen)
sux that you had problems hearing the vox...but cool that you had a good time anyway
fav songs? what did you think of DJ?
looking forward to vids
Favourites were This I Love, Nightrain, Better.
Little fun thing that happened, during Nightrain, Axl threw his big white coweboyhat towards Pitman/Frank. Pitman sees it coming flying through the air, takes a calculated step away from his keyboard and catches the hat midair and puts it on! They both seemed to enjoy it. Those in the audience who noticed it, started laughing!
I thought DJ was great! I think he jumped down on the floor at one point...
The band also gave a great performance. Axl was Ok/good... Next time when you're starting a tour halfway around the world, Axl, you might wanna make sure you're there in time, well rested and prepared...
Hopefully he's in better spirit and with audible vocals tomorrow! Looking forward to it!
A friend of mine (not hardcore gnr-fan), said that the different guitarsolos were much cooler than the last time he saw them ('06). I agree!
Re: Bergen, Norway - May 31, 2010 (Vestlandshallen)
Axl landed 20:15 in Bergen, straight from LA (maybe a stopover somewhere).
That's pushing it a bit I'd say...
The rest was normal from critics. Dumbfucks thinking Axl will be on time, starting to whine and whistle, Axl coming on late and seriously, I don't blame him when he shows up in Norway 20:15. Why the hell didn't he go a day earlier?
People saying it was a band with no sould. The old mantra because Slash ain't there. Nothing to really pay attention to.
And maybe a soundcheck if the sound from his vocals were low?
Hope for more CD and longer set list in Oslo!
But, Axl pushed his luck in Bergen. Coming in so late is dangerous. What if a delay happened somewhere? You would have another Vancouver on your hands.
