Apparently tonight's show will be a little bit shorter than yesterday's.

Apparently it wasn't. The same setlist with Don't Let It Bring You added at the end.

Turns out they played 'Paradise City' after all, as the last song.

People are saying Axl was singing better this time, but still not good.

Great to have this new round of concerts started, even if it was a bit rough start. Really cool to hear Better and Welcome to the Jungle all acoustic.

The Neil Young song is Don't Let It Bring You Down. I haven't heard he and Axl singing it together but I really really want to. Great song and I can imagine it almost. Wish I'd been there.

Axl's singing is not bad at all on this show, despite his strep throat. A lot better than the first day. The 'first show of the tour drama queens' on the boards are getting old.

Yes, I was pleasantly surprised with the second day -- I never thought Axl would improve that much so quickly. It is really unfortunate that it is the bad shows that are televised/streamed. That being said, Axl and GN'R got a lot of good publicity as a result of the charity concert, so all in all it is really good.
