Guns N' Roses live at TD Place in Ottawa

Ladies and gentlemen,

In a certain way, it was my own personal birthday gift to myself when I went to see Guns N' Roses in concert earlier last week. I had heard about the band's underwhelming shows in the past but I simply wanted to see this legendary hard rock band once in my lifetime before it could be too late. 

To be honest, Guns 'N Roses put up one of the greatest concerts I have ever attended, probably only beaten by the mighty Black Sabbath in 2014 and Iron Maiden in 2016. The band played an incredible total of thirty songs from its numerous different releases of all eras, including famous classics such as ''Welcome to the Jungle'' and ''Sweet Child O' Mine'' but also more recent tracks like ''Chinese Democracy'' and ''Better'' and cover songs like ''Knockin' on Heaven's Door'' and ''Live and Let Die''. As if that weren't enough, the performance included numerous jam sessions and solos, an outstanding light show and colourful videos on three giant screens.

The concert lasted for an incredible three hours and twenty minutes and didn't even included a break. This is probably the longest concert I have ever attended and might even beat Groovy Aardvark's thirtieth anniversary show last year. I was happy that my personal Guns N' Roses experience turned out to be a blast that was worth every penny I had spent on the expensive ticket.

If you have the chance to witness the band on its Not in This Lifetime Tour, don't hesitate and get your ticket as soon as you can.

Here are a few pictures taken during the first few minutes of the show. I decided to not take more pictures to be able to fully enjoy the concert. This is the kind of attitude that I would have liked to get from the numerous busy smart phone users and electric cigarette or pot smokers around me but nothing is perfect.
