[During Knockin' On Heaven's Door, pointing at a "FRANKFURT" lettering with "FU" being the only visible part] So, what I was trying to point out to the band - and I didn't realize they couldn't see it from where they are at unless they're out here - was that, if I get to heaven, I pretty much think those are the two letters I'm gonna see: F-U. That's pretty much it, up there: "Fuck you!"

[Introducing Pretty Tied Up] We've been accused of being misogynistic. But see, the song was based on an event where the guy was tied to the fucking ceiling. Not the girl, the guy. That just didn't look so good for us to sing about at the time (laughs) ... But writers... they know everything, right? (laughs)

That seems to be a dig at the Independent review for Glastonbury.

Hard Skool has now been played more times than Dead Horse (59 vs 58) and Anything Goes has been played more than Dust N' Bones (46 vs 45).

Some reviews and articles:

1. https://www.hessenschau.de/kultur/guns-nroses-rockt-frankfurt--der-mythos-lebt-v3,guns-n-roses-frankfurt-102.html

2. https://www.regioactive.de/review/2023/07/04/guns-n-roses-praesentieren-im-deutsche-bank-park-frankfurt-ein-rock-n-roll-spektakel-mit-makel-P1bLV2xv5d

3. https://www.rnz.de/kultur/kultur-regional_artikel%2C-Guns-N-Roses-in-Frankfurt-Wie-Axl-Rose-in-der-Arena-die-Kontrolle-verlor-plus-Fotogalerie-_arid%2C1144805.html

4. https://www.watson.de/unterhaltung/musik/831108790-guns-n-roses-kult-rocker-verspotten-bei-konzert-deutschen-bundesliga-klub

What I got from the auto-translation is that review 1 is very positive, 2 positive but with remarks about Axl's vocal issues, 3 is biased against Axl. 4 is a rather clickbaity article just about Axl's joke during Knocking On Heaven's Door - it suggests that it was insulting to Eintracht Frankfurt (local football team) and its fans (?!)
