Guns N’ Roses made their first-ever appearance at the Bridge School Benefits last night at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, Calif. where Axl Rose and Co. stuck mainly to hits Appetite For Destruction and the Lies E.P. during a seven-song set. In fact, Better, off of 2008’s Chinese Democracy, was the only song performed which was written in the last 23 years.
Pro-shot footage of the set from a webcast has surfaced and the first track we watched was Welcome To The Jungle which is just horrible. Axl sounds like a bad cover band singer.

However, Patience was a completely different story. Rose nailed it…

The rest of the set ranged from abysmal (Better) to mediocre to pretty good…

I’m just surprised they even played. When I saw them on the bill I thought it more likely than not that G ‘N’ R would “Axel out” on the benefit.
