Wow, what a show

GnR rocked the ScotiaBank place on Friday night with a 2 hour and 20 minute bang up performance. Former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach was pretty good as an opening act, and had a little help from Ricky, Julian and Bubbles. Any of the Trailer Park Boys would have been right at home in the crowd of rocker chicks and guys with mullets - yup, it was an awesome night.

The Ottawa Sun gave them 4.5 stars, saying:

It doesn't matter whether you see the equally reviled and revered 44-year-old as an obnoxious relic-brat who refuses to go quietly, a next-generation symbol of everything bad-ass, or a man capable of delivering steel-melting vocals that can transport a person back to 1990 in an note. There was no denying that over 10,000 fans who took in a two-hour, 20-minute show were in the presence of a true rock star.

Even the Citizen gave a positive review

Guns N Roses came out late on Friday -- even later than Toronto -- and proceeded to tear down Scotiabank Place with blistering streaks of rock mayhem. We’re talking electric guitars, thundering bass and concussive blasts of pyrotechnics.

Great show!

"The Captain and the Kid" tour hit Ottawa on Friday night and Sir Elton John put on a top notch show. Playing for almost two and a half hours, he played all the old stuff (B-b-b-Benny and the Jets, Crocodile Rock, Levon, Philadelphia Freedom, Daniel, Your Song) and threw in some new material in the middle.

Unfortunately I forgot my camera otherwise I'd have up photos like from an earlier concert.
