Auckland, New Zealand, Vector arena 29th June.
Sebastian was easily the best performer of the night. His stage presence and singing abilities eclipsed the other performers.
Everything from his entrance, his easy affinity with the crowd and his ability to get people excited were just amazing. He had endless energy and really knew what he was doing up there on stage. He was looking wonderfully fit and dead sexy.
He was the highlight of the show. I came to see Guns N Roses, and left only remembering Sebastian Bach!
The sound wasn't so hot, not sure if it was the arena itself but often it was hard to hear the voices over the guitars as the sound really smeared and echoed. But all in all it was the best night I've had in years and years.
Dude, you rocked Auckland! I hope you come back again. Michelle

Thanks for the review 80srockchick! - especially liked the part where you said "... I came to see Guns N Roses, and left only remembering Sebastian Bach!"....

Had to laugh at this one have been reading reviews of GNR from NZ newspapers and found this oneI have waited 14 years for Axl and his band to return. I rocked with him, as he and the crowd belted out the lyrics from his best songs. I had no idea who Sebastian Bach was at first, however his distinctive voice helped me realise he was Gill from the Gilmore Girls. He was awesome, a fabulous act to hear before the one and only Axl. The night was fabulous, the cannons awesome (we could feel the heat of them from our seats). We could see Axl backstage, and Sebastian yelling at the sound crew. We could see every detail of their clothes, guitars, etc. An amazing night, worth the 14 year wait! Unfortunately had plans on Saturday, I would have gone again otherwise! -Helen Ashman Here is the link www.stuff.co.nz/4114551a22375.html

Hi everyone,
if he didn't do a meet and greet, can I ask how you guys managed to meet him? I followed Pearl Jam back to their hotel and waited for Eddie but gave up at about 3.30 in the morning. Any other tips from anyone who has managed to meet Sebastian (or anyone else for that matter).

Any other tips from anyone who has managed to meet Sebastian (or anyone else for that matter). well, from all the reads here on the board, : -before sound checks (somewhere out there) -on his way to sound checks (close to venue) -his way out from doing sound checks (close to venue) -after sound checks (again, somewhere out there) -or for me it was right before the show on his way to the bus from being 'out there' to get ready for the show - he just had street clothes on at that point... (oh, yeah, it helped that I had another freak with me) -meets & greets (and we still don't know if they did one this year ) -some folks mobbed the bus last year (and got to see the guys, but no Baz) -if you 'know' someone who 'knows' someone who 'knows' where they are staying etc.. [I'm not much help am I? ] * *

As far as I know the guys didn't do meet and greets during this tour. I have been a Sebastian fan since 1988 and have only had the pleasure of meeting him for the first time two weeks ago in Brisbane and Sydney. The guys have what you might call an after show party, and to get inside you need an after show pass, or a VIP pass,I begged and pleaded to all security and road crew until I was blessed enough to be given one. This was my first concert I have ever been to so I don't know if these parties always happen though, but there is no harm in asking. I was told to get a pass it's who you know, but in my case I didn't know anyone, I went alone which might have helped. Just a tip if you ever meet Baz, treat him like you would a good friend, and don't be overcrowding. Being with Baz n Axl made me realise how so many people want a piece of them, there only human, and need some space sometimes too. Never give up hope because Baz will be bach!!!!

I think we need more direct exits and entries out here - at Acer Arena they drive in and out of the building so there is no direct access for fans - it is such a pain in the *^%. But, I've got to say, I am a long time Gunners and Skid Row fan... I wasn't surprised how friendly Baz was cause you kind of expect it given the fact that he does do meet and greets (even though he didn't this time) but was really surprised how friendly Axl was.
