@Sandman6: Ah ok, I see that some on the songs performed are from Use your Illusion as well. You were there too!? Lucky you ;) Normally in USD, how much does it cost for such kind of show in Abu Dhabi!?

150 AED ($40) or 400 AED ($110) for the VP section at the front.

I remember first going to see GnR at the Marquee Club in London in 1986 or 87 where the place only held around 400 people. There were some 20,000 at Yas.....
