I went last year. Good show. The only thing I did not like was that a lot of it was Lip Sync. Great pyro show though.

Nope. Myles Reif performing arts center. I bought Tix at the door and got third row. It was the first show of their tour. Awesome show!

Saw them on their last tour where they were doing the "Love" album in its entirety. Good show, though there were some songs I would have liked to have heard for encores that they never got to.

Just picked up tickets for Slash at the Chicago HoB in February.

Managed to blag my way in to see Slash in Luxembourg this summer... OUTSTANDING! Will blow you away if you've not seen him yet! It's a billion times better than the Axl Rose Temper Tantrum Quintet.

I saw him twice with Velvet Revolver, Lumpy, but obviously the spotlight should be more on him at this show rather than Scott Weiland.

I had up front seats for the Guns'n'Roses show in Chicago in April 2002 that Axl decided to skip to avoid possible arrest on charges stemming from a riot he incited in St. Louis earlier on the tour. :td

Yeah, obviously it's a Slash show, but the guy he has/had singing for him, Myles Kennedy, is... well, I'll let you decide.

Did you hear about G'n'R at the Reading and Leeds festivals this year? Long story short, at Reading, Axl left instructions not to be woken if he was asleep, so no one woke him up for the set, they went on an hour late, got cut off. Axl blamed his road crew, and fired them all. Next day, at Leeds, he realised he didn't have time to hire a new crew, and was forced to re-hire all the crew he'd just fired. Tw@t.

Bad?

I am hoping for Chicago that maybe one of two of the people who sang on his latest solo album might have an appearance.....my votes would be for Chris Cornell and Lemmy.....or Fergie, if she shows up in a bikini. ;)

Nah, Myles Kennedy is good!

The outfit Fergie wore in the Sweet Child video is... sparkly.

Have tickets for the Slash concert at the HoB in Chicago in February, and just scored some pre-sale tickets for the Chris Cornell acoustic show in Milwaukee in April.

Just saw the Capital Steps today. Not sure if you can classify it as a concert, more a musical comedy show, but it was very humorous.

Dont get me wrong, i love Clapton and Charlie Parker too, but i had never

He`s a great show.
Just heard Clapton and Marsalis at Lincoln Center, very small venue,
tix start at 900.00, prolly sold out by now, it went up 2 days ago.
2 shows, way past my means, 13 yrs ago i would be there.

I saw Starship last month with my girlfriend and her parents. Great time. It was at a casino so free drinks and a semi-small venue. My girlfriends parents actually got the spelling of her name from the song Sara so it was cool to see it live in concert with her.

Yeah I loved it and have been looking forward to seeing him forever.

I wanted to see John Gorka when he was in Tulsa this past week but the snow storm sorta put an end to that little adventure >.<

Show was outstanding Lumpy....Slash can rip, and Myles Kennedy is much better than Axl at this stage of the game.

Same guy yep.
He is a pretty good musician and performer James.
A buddy and I went for our birthdays in January.My friend is an accomplished guitar and banjo player himself,so musically I follow his lead lol.
Reasonable ticket price at a beautiful venue,it was worth it.Jeff writes some good stuff,blues mostly.He's good for some good belly laughs too.
A bunch of his stuff is on youtube if you're curious. :)

To be fair, Myles only has to be awake at show time to be better than Axl :lr

Will do. He seems to have potential when not with Jim Carrey.

I don't know if Australian comedian Tim Minchin has made the US yet, but for funny songs, give him a listen!

These days, sad but true. To give Myles his due, he is one of the better rock singers I have seen live in many years.

Saw Bob Seger in Buffalo last weekend. The guy was amazing. He'll be 66 in a month and had a cold but you wouldn't have been able to tell. Glad I got to see him. Don't expect he'll be touring to many more times. Also I was in the 3rd row witch was pretty amazing. I had a great time too.

was up in chicago end of march for my mom's birthday and we caught the greenhornes at the double door. great little indie band out of cincinatti. they don't "do" a lot on stage but they're always tight and sound great. third time i've seen them in 6 months. highly recommend their latest album, "****".

I can't get enough of Skillet. I think that was my 9th skillet show in less than 2 years and I've already got tix to see them in July as well.

They played the Avalanche tour and Halestorm played before them. Lzzy Hale is the singer and she has an incredible voice. Best rock singer who is a more powerful version of Nancy Wilson in my opinion.
