If anyone doesn't know that Axl doesn't take the stage until somewhere between 11:30 and midnight they've been living in a tree. It's well known and because of it there are usually a number of opening acts. I think for most shows the wait between last opener and Axl 'n Roses is tending to be less than an hour. It isn't ridiculous. It's just a long night.

And from the people I know that went to shows in Halifax, Toronto and Calgary the wait has been more than worth it. They are putting on a great show when they do hit the stage.

I actually saw them one show before the last tour blew up. Saw them in Hartford, they played MSG and then the tour got cancelled in Philly. They were very good then and from what I here this incarnation is far better.
