Apparently they hit the stage at 8:30.
Although I'm not surprised since this was the gig where they did the contract with the V8 Supercars so presumably start time was a critical part of it.
The extra Oz shows I imagine GN'R organised independently so I'm guessing they can go on stage a little more liberally at those.

Wow...8.30 is early for any gig! Good to see this seems to be going off without any issues though, the V8 element always had potential for trouble I thought.

Re: Sydney, Australia - December 4 (Olympic Park, 2010 V8 Super Cars)
yeah twat is my fav song from CD, I'd love to see it come back too...i've got my fingers crossed for Adeliade...but I doubt I'm that lucky. Quite a nice set list here though - good mix of CD and Classics.
Re: Sydney, Australia - December 4 (Olympic Park, 2010 V8 Super Cars)
Me too, love TWAT.
Would love to have seen BH play it, the guitar solo's are killer.
I was NEVER a BH fan for a number of years, but TWAT really sold me on him so I dived into his back catalogue and never looked back.
A few more CD songs in the set would help to satisfy my personal preference (as would some more UYI but I'm dreaming now).
Good to see that the concert appeared to go smoothly, was sure there was a high probability of trouble at this.

Which only proves he's more than capable of hitting the stage at a reasonable time every night yet simply chooses not to for effect. Which to be honest has lost it's effect a decade ago.

Re: Sydney, Australia - December 4 (Olympic Park, 2010 V8 Super Cars)
A little longer set. Nice to see. I'm sure it's still an awesome time, but I hope when I eventually get to see them again (hopefully) I don't get one of the 15/16 song setlist shows. And 8:30 is almost shocking as a start time. They haven't done that since Japan last year I don't think. Obviously though, I wouldn't expect that to become commonplace.
