After 'Live And Let Die', Axl jokes, "Tom, what do you think
that
was? Either it was cupcake or dog shit." Tommy and Axl go on to joke
about the pyros. After 'You Could Be Mine', Axl briefly asks, "You
didn't
think we'd be here, did you?"
Before 'My Michelle', Axl comments on the
problems in Vancouver,
"So last night... it would appear... that, it seems to
appear that
someone actually called the police to meet me at the airport
before
they even cancelled the show. That's just... I guess that's just my
imagination that someone would possibly do such a thing. 'Cuz we
know that
every single human being is an honest person. OK, back to
fun and games. What
song should we do? OK, uh... let's do 'My
Michelle'" Axl jokes again before
'Madagascar', "Let's see what
we can fuck with next. We'd like to thank CKY
and we'd like to thank
Mix Master Mike for coming here tonight to help
entertain you folks.
This is a song about... how professional racing really pisses me off -
this is called 'Mad-at-Nascar!'"
During Buckethead’s solo, he
plays parts of ‘Big Sur Moon’, ‘Star
Wars Theme’, ‘A Pirate’s Life For Me’ &
‘Hog Bitch Stomp’. Axl
and Tommy joke around before 'Nightrain' about if the
whistle
should be blown before the song starts or not.

GN'R hit the stage around 10:08 p.m., with Axl wearing a
University
of North Dakota white Sioux jersey. The band played an extended
jam
as an intro to 'Rocket Queen'. For the 2nd night in a row, Axl
mentions Izzy
while saying that 'You Could Be Mine' was written
about Izzy's girlfriend
Angela.

Another solid show on Richard Fortus' birthday. A ring fell off
Axl's
hand during 'You Could Be Mine' and landed somewhere in the
crowd.
