Axl’s Vocals were in top form, rarely missing a note and showing any wear from touring. Even things didn’t go as planned for Axl in particular, a flubhed and eventually scrapped start of, “There Was a Time” and accidentally spilled beverage on His piano ahead of the super ballad song, “November Rain” finish. Axl kept His composure and laughed off the mishops.
Guns N Roses didn’t their best to pay their sonic respect. A twangy cover of, “Wichita Lineman” was welcome, as was a raucous tribute to AC/ DC’s Malcolm Young, with “Whole Lotta Rosie”. A song the band covered in it’s early years.

As the clock bellow past the midnight hour, and after “Paradise City” put the 37 song set to rest. Guns N Roses ended the tour, without line up questions clouding it’s future. Though the band has stadium dates scheduled for Europe next year, few outside of the band know what’s next for this band. Rumors surrounding potential new material have already surfaced and with how well the band has come together, it would be dissappointing at this point if didn’t happen.
For fans, though, if nothing else, Not in This Lifetime proved that after 23 long overdue years. Not only could Axl and Slash coexist in a band. But that the wait for iconic duo the put aside their legendary differences aside was worth it.
