SCHNITZEL: It was the concert that almost didn't happen… if you take me not attending as it 'not happening'. After a late (as in after Sunday's Neil Young and Crazy Horse concert) and fortuitous turn of events (a friend not being able to attend anymore), I was gifted a ticket to see Guns and Roses at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre. I'd been interested in seeing them when tickets first went on sale, but money and the need to prioritise concerts meant that I was giving it a miss. But when a ticket was just sitting there, about to go to waste… who am I to say no? So, I got excited, I ran through the discography in preparation, I left work early so I could feed and bath my daughter before heading out… and then… DISASTER!
