Recap of the two Sydney shows at the official site, GunsNRoses.com, June 25, 2007:
'NICE BOYS' DON'T PLAY ROCK N' ROLL

By Doug Miller/GunsNRoses.com

The Guns N' Roses 2007 trek through Australia ended on a very high note with two sold-out shows in Sydney at the Acer Arena this past weekend.

Over 10,000 fans attended each concert, and as an added bonus, at each show GN'R performed the Rose Tattoo classic "Nice Boys (Don't Play Rock N' Roll)" with none other than Angry Anderson.

With Axl and Angry trading off verses and singing the choruses together, it was truly a magical jam with scorching sonic energy coming off the stage -- the proverbial icing on the cake for an amazing series of concerts. To celebrate, GN'R threw an after-party at a Sydney night club called Ruby Rabbit that did not end until long after the sun came up.

The next stop on the tour is Auckland, New Zealand, with two shows -- Friday, June 29, and Saturday, June 30 -- at the Vector Arena. Guns N' Roses have one last performance Down Under on July 3 in Christchurch, New Zealand, before heading to Japan.

Article about the two Sydney shows in the Daily Telegraph, June 25, 2007:
Patience, then into the jungle of Rose's

BAD boy of rock `n' roll Axl Rose welcomed Sydney's Guns `N Roses fans to his jungle of concert madness at the weekend during the last leg of his Australian tour.

After nearly 15 years, the American hard rock heavyweights returned to Sydney, playing a collection of the band's greatest hits to more than 23,500 concert-goers over two nights.

Rose, 45, the only original member of the band, screeched into his first song Welcome To The Jungle as the clock struck midnight, rocking Sydney's Acer Arena for two hours on Saturday before backing up the antics last night.

While fans in Brisbane were agitated with the starting time, throwing a soft drink can at Rose, Sydney's crowd remained tame -- a stark contrast to the rowdy scenes that met the performer at Eastern Creek in 1993.

Hits including Sweet Child O' Mine and November Rain emerged as crowd favourites, as were the tributes to Australian legends INXS and AC/DC.
