It was an impressive show. The only gripe I have about the concert is that they In't perform longer. It surprised me that the Gunrs didn't play their latest single "You Could Be ine."

Of course, if they played all their other really great songs (such as "Rocket Queen," "You're Crazy," "It's So Easy" and "One in a Million," to name a few) they would have played until sunrise. Two full hours is a lot more than you would get from some bands these days, but it doesn't even do them justice. By the way, opening act Skid Row was quite good. Their new (and number one) album Slave to the Grind sounds a lot less commercial than their first release. Skid Row was a great warm-up, grinding out some really tough versions of their best songs such as "Monkey Business" (their new single) and "Piece of Me" (off their first LP). Lead singer Sebastian Bach is an arrogant little worm, but his terrific vocals helped make up for his moronic dialogue between songs. Skid Row is good; Guns N' Roses is a lot more than just good. If Guns N' Roses' albums are anywhere near as good as their live show, they will truly be the Rock Band of the Decade.
