Thanks. I didn't go to a concert till I was 19—the price you pay for going to boarding school. Anyway, I got out, and saw GnR at Milton Keynes Bowl in 1993.

Izzy Stradlin had left the band by then. However because Gilby Clarke - his replacement had broken his arm—Izzy returned for that show. Also, Ronnie Wood turned up to play a few Stones songs with the band. I was at the front. Slash's sweat even dripped on me….

After 100s more gigs, I'd never forget that one.
