Simply spectacular. 4 and a half hours after the gates opened the lights dimmed all of a sudden and the intro to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=N_o6bkUMirA\">Welcome To The Jungle<\/a> rocked the Air Canada Centre. Almost two hours later they finished the show with an extended version of Paradise City.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.sikander.org\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/11\/gnr_logo.jpg?w=580\" alt=\"Guns N' Roses\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.sikander.org\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/11\/GNRTickets.jpg?w=580\" alt=\"Guns N' Roses Tickets\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The pyrotechnics during the show were so damn loud but so well-placed and well-timed. Each time the fireworks went off it felt as if the roof would crack open.<\/p>\n<p>The only complaint I have was that they didn&#8217;t play Madagascar&#8230; but all the other songs.. You Could Be Mine, Knockin&#8217; On Heaven&#8217;s Door, Nightrain, Sweet Child O&#8217; Mine, November Rain, Mr. Brownstone, Don&#8217;t Cry, Yesterdays, etc. etc. were just great. The new songs, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=K7PieZGDw9Q\">Better<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8Ctwt91io_8\">There Was A Time<\/a> are also very good.<\/p>\n<p>Oh and Sebastian Bach opened for GnR with his classic <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Skid_Row_%28heavy_metal_band%29\">Skid Row<\/a> songs.
