I would have thought Robin could be asked to step in if Ron's health meant he had to take some time off.

Maybe this is a step in the direction of making sure they have a backup option. Or maybe it was just a cool moment between two old friends.

I don't know how much I buy the management-security alignment. I read something by Powerage5 on MyGNR about how a security guard was telling him to put away the camera, but Fernando was tellin the security guard to let them take pictures. The security guy said no, apparently.  This was at the Ritz.

Rogue security.......just don't buy that, especially since Axl has kicked out audience members holding up Slash shirts in the past.

Read the guy's post.  GN'R is supposed to be anti-cameras, right?  Axl posed for a picture for this guy, so did Ron.  When did Axl actually throw someone out for wearing a Slash shirt?  Please don't say RIR 2001 as you can't see the shirt the audience member was wearing from the pro-shot broadcast video.

btw, listening to the HOB show and it is quite brutal through Sorry. Axl is chewing up the stage with some really terrible caterwalling.

I thought Axl was good, not great, not horrible.  I'd give him a B or so.  He was erratic, per usual.

I agree with your assessment of last night. But I think he's been more consistent overall in this most recent round of touring than not.
