Found this surfing the net the Adelaide review.
Gunners blast Ent Centre
Article from: The Advertiser

WE WERE Welcomed to the Jungle, taken to a Paradise City and Knocked on Heaven's Door and the 8,000 Guns'n'Roses fans at the Entertainment Centre loved every minute.
Welcome to the Jungle was the frenetic opener complete with pyrotechnics and an energetic Axl Rose prowling around the stage.
Though it's hard to say whether it really is Guns'n'Roses without Slash and Duff, the new version is a pretty good replacement.
Guitarists and Slash stand-ins - yes, he needs three - Robin Finck, Ron Thal and Richard Fortus proved they could shred with epic solos, bass player and former Replacement Tommy Stinson brought a touch of alternative underground cool to proceedings and original member Dizzy Reed held the crowd captivated during a stunning rendition of the Rolling Stones' Angie played at the front of the stage on a grand piano.
But the cheering fans didn't come for the band. It was Axl they all wanted to see and despite a reputation as an inconsistent performer, the legendary frontman was up to the task, high-kicking, running around and dissing the venue the band played in Perth on Sunday night.
Though the voice isn't as sharp as it used to be, the cornrows look ridiculous and Axl isn't the lanky rocker he once was, he showed on songs such as November Rain, he's still got the star quality that made GnR the biggest rock band of the `80s.
Several new songs were spread throughout the set including Better - the new song most fans would recognise from the internet and though the new material was met with polite appreciation, there was a few promising moments to suggest the 13 years Axl has been working on Chinese Democracy might not have been entirely wasted.
Support act and former Skid Row singer Sebastian Bach was invited onstage to sing a fiery My Michelle, in a moment that was straight out of 1987, not 2007.
The thrilling finale, Paradise City almost had Axl's vocals overwhelmed by the monster sound coming from the seven piece band.
Fireworks and red ticker tape sprayed out over the audience, before the band returned to give the crowd a final round of '`Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi."
Earlier in the night, Bach and Rose Tattoo were given the task of warming up the crowd.
A veteran of Australian hard rock, Angry Anderson proved he could still rock a stadium running through favourites from We Can't Be Beaten to Bad Boy For Life.
Whlie Bach set the pace with a high-energy set that was all about leather pants, long hair and metal riffs.
Bach last played in Australia in 1990 and he was clearly enjoying this return visit, declaring, 'I've been waiting 17 years to say Adelaide, here I am,' before launching into the Skid Row classic. But the Bach highlight had to be when he intro-ed his former band's acoustic hit, I Remember You. `I've been waiting all night to say, Adelaide, Australia, I remember you
No mention of Bubbles was Bubbles in Adelaide???

Hey and what merchandise was there and How much? any tour books? who else went to Adelaide? Sorry I am asking so many questions, Oh and I agree do not leave it that long again, So excited less than a week till Brisbane. hey aussie girl nearly all of the songs from"SKID ROW" debut plus slave, monkey business, the threat, some new stuff. I dont wanna spoil it for you. He plays for just over an hour. Axl came on about 11:10pm and we finished at 1:30am. I didn't look at the merch, sorry. My wife and I thought that, just like back when skid row supported GNR on their aussie tour the first time, IMO, almost steals the show for skid row fans. Just be ready to rock the place. One more thing, I have never been to concert as loud as that so be warned. I am just getting my over it now but still not 100%. enjoy. |

id love to go to melbourne & see him again!!
there was this boy about 10 sitting a couple of rows in front of us & he was so funny. he really liked sebastian too. he was yelling and screaming to him, it was really cute.
my daughter,5, likes listening to sebastian too. i only let her listen to some of his music, you know the ones without language. she was dissappointed she couldnt come to the concert, & the next day she asked me how it was & what he was like then she sighed & said "i love sebastian" !! i thought it was really funny!!

Here's another great review of Seb's set at Adelaide that I found on NewGNR. Sounds like they've got the best of it so far with 1 hour and 20 minutes!! Lucky them!! 06-10-07 | Adelaide (Australia) Review by Brett After 14 long suffering years, it all came together like I could not have ever imagined! Went to show with best mate of 30 years (since age 4), my wife and his wife so that made it even better. So here goes mother fuckers: Rose Tattoo – no interest in these guys so did not catch their show at all. Got to stadium just in time for: Sebastian Bach should not be a support act – he should be headlining his own tour, the man is that goddamn good! He put on a longer than usual show of about 1 hour 20 minutes and was at the top of his game with both his classical vocals and his deep metal range. Some of his new stuff sounded fantastic even though I had heard most of it in Melbourne last year. He sang some of the ‘Row classics with crowd which was already almost filling the indoor stadium (holds about 15,000) loving all of that of course. The word to describe this man is “irrepressible” which he has been called many times. Johnny Cromatic is a great guitarist but importantly a very strong back up singer in his own right and that complimented Sebastian to perfection. Metal Mike struggles a little but did his job well enough. Bazz loves a chat and was constantly rolling out the standard lines to the crowd and they/we lapped it up of course. All in all he was 110% and I would demand everyone get there earlier enough (9pm) to see this man. Highlight of his set was definitely By My Side which is one of the new ones. I would describe it as a Sebastian version of Patience. To read the full interview, click here: www.newgnr.com/newgnr.html |

I'm still dreaming about and bombarding everyone with talk about the concert....I was lucky enough (the luckiest) to be up the front and for Sebastian to come up and crouch down and sing some of 'I Remember You' to me, I still can't believe it.... so I guess you won't either!!!!! Not only is he the hottest but has the most incredible voice and energy, I will never forget it, never thought it possible, have loved Sebastian since the age of 15 and he is still as amazing as ever...you'll always be my dream come truuuuuueeee!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
