Normal Happiness - is his "NEW" record that he of course said was already recorded and done. The song he played - "Supernatural Car Lover" was fucking out of this world rockin. Another certified hit!
Great show. 43 Songs and of those only 21(*) of those were from the record he was promoting. Pretty cool, and a straight GBV encore didnt hurt. Wurster on drums was a sight to see. There was a new guitarist drinking a can of COKE on-stage. People were shocked - he looked like he was from the OC, and someone in the crowd told us he was also in the new Guns N Roses?! How true is that, probably not.
He's still got it. Still rocked balls!
