notes: This is the first show in Europe on the UYI tour. Unusual opening performance of 'Mr. Brownstone,' which is usually the second song played. Axl thanks the Finnish crowd for giving them Hanoi Rocks. 'Welcome To The Jungle' is played instrumentally for the most part, apparently something happened to Axl. Then, without Axl, the band plays '14 Years.' After some time off, Axl comes back and the band plays 'Welcome To The Jungle' completely. The opening to 'Paradise City' is a bit different � it starts out with Slash jamming on the opening chords and Axl singing the first 2 lines, just the two of them.
