Buddy of mine just texted me that GNR is playing Chicago tomorrow (2/19). Sounded wrong since I just saw them at Allstate Arena not too long ago, but sure enough, they're playing House of Blues. Wish I had known sooner- Stubhub has tickets going for roughly $250 a pop. They're good, but not $250 good with work and school the next day. "9:30" start time. I would consider it, but I've already committed money towards Eddie Vedder in Orlando (and the plane tickets that this requires). |

Well, enjoy. The November show at Allstate was excellent apart from the fact that everyone in the band got a few minutes of "me time" for guitar solo/drum solo. DJ Asba is trying so badly to be Slash that I'm almost embarrassed for him. A cigarette hanging from his mouth (City of Rosemont frowns upon indoor smoking- he probably got some correspondence from Rosemont PD in the mail) , wearing an almost top-hat like hat, and so on. I read somewhere that Axl wanted the lead guitarist to play a Les Paul; he obliged. He's very talented, but come on- you're pretending to be Slash in front of thousands of people who are pissed for years that he's not there? That's pretty bold. Should have jacked someone else's modus operandi. |

That sounds about right. I have such a hard time imagining them at a venue like HOB. The last time I missed a show that I wanted to go was Pearl Jam at United Center in 2009. That still stung even after I went to PJ20 this summer. Still, getting back home at 4 am ahead of a work day/school night- just the thought of doing that hurts. Hopefully they wrap this club tour up and knock out CD's follow up in a timely manner. |

I know people give you a lot of crap on here, most of it completely deserved, but I'll give you this Panth: This concert seems like one of the most miserable and complete wastes of time and money that I can possibly fathom. And somehow you survived it. Bravo. |

Dizzy gone now too? Or did he just chop off all his hair? |
