This was a great gig – certainly one of the best at the time. Velvet Revolver came on with great presence and played all the best stuff from the first album (including the awesome “Slither”), plus a Stone Temple Pilots song and “It’s So Easy,” “Mr Brownstone” and “Used to Love Her.” Slash played some great individual solos and more importantly wore his top hat, so everyone was happy. The Dhatsuns were not bad either.
All round, there were some great musicians on show – I particularly recall a section where they all sat down and went acoustic for a few songs – it genuinely felt like it could have almost been a Gun’s N’Roses concert had idiot face been shorn of his indulgence and hadn't broken up the band.
9.5 out of 10 (not quite GNR of old but more so than GNR of today)
