This review is so poor its untrue.
No mention of F.M or Cinderella ?????
Take it from me i am not Billy Idol’s greatest fan and did not expect too much from him but he had the job of following Slash who was excellent and had all his teeny bopper fans. Then it rained and i mean rained Billy Idol come on and got soaked with the rest of us on the walkway into the crowd. I hope he tours after this I will certainly be getting a tickets.

Band of sunday for me was saxon, great set, and performance. They should have been on later in the day with a longer set.

CR please stop licking Slash’s ass, I know you’ve got an album to promoto but it is really funny when you mention Myles and Axl in one sentence. Axl is sounding awesome during this tour and band is tight, he sounds better than in 92-93 tour and Myles is singing high notes like a girl nowhere near Axl at all.

And Aerosmith “I don’t wanna miss a Thing” ? It was Celine Dion song nothing in common with rock. That lady that wrote this review doesn’t know shit about rock , “Dream On” is moving rock power ballad , “It don’t Wanna Miss a Thing” is band going commercial way, singing songs they don’t even wrote.

Dear Classic Rock

Please try to remove your puckered lips from Slash’s ass. Im sure even he is getting tired of them being permenently sewn on there.

And while you are at it, how about some fair and balanced reporting when it comes to GNR, Slah, and Axl?

Much appreciated

Toodles….

And seriously Classicrock?! Have you actually listend, or even heard Axl’s singing lately? I saw them live in Seoul, Korea in 2009, and Axl’s voice was AMAZING! I was really worried that it would sound like shit (having never seen him live), but he sounded as good as the appetite days..

You guys seriously need to get over your Slash bias, and stop going gaga over anything and everything he does, while taking every oppertunity you can to bash Axl. As the other guy said, its gotten old and boring…..

Wow….if by “reinvigorating” the songs, and “hitting the high notes” you mean sounding like a women with a dildo shoved up her ass, then I guess Myles Kennedy is amazing.

I was nt at Download, but I ve watched his performances of the GNR classics on youtube, and his nightrain is pathetic to say the least. He robs that song of its balls, but then he sings as if he balls have yet to drop…..

billy idol really impressed me, and im not even a fan. i watched it wanting to not like him! was great with the crowd and covered the doors” la woman.

really pissed me me off that the ‘metalhead’ stood next to me had a go at me for having a dance around in lord of the thighs.. told him to go and f**k himself when he tried to put his arm around me during that diane warren cover
