Awesome show, really cool to be able to be that close to the artists and watch them jamming as if they were just at home. Thought Slash and Uli Jon Roth might have been on stage a bit longer but was still worth every cent!

G-Taranaki was absolutely amazing. I just with I played guitar so I could've made the most of the weeks activities and gone to the forums and clinics.

Each act was so different and we are so lucky to see these people perform. And the signings were great too.

I couldn't believe how close I was with my silver seating. I'm still buzzing from the concerts.

This was honestly one of the best concerts I have been too, and I have been to many. I may be a bit biased because I am a huge Slash fan. Myles Kennedy on vocals was awesome! His 2 songs are my favourite on Slash's album so again may be a bit biased, but I thought he did an awesome job of belting out thr classic Gn'R hits. The venue was pretty sweet, not too big so you could actually see the stage and all the guys in the band. Awesome concert in the Naki, def worth the trip from Aucks!

As this was my first time attending G-Taranaki I was not sure wot to expect but was pleasantly surprised with the acts. Great to see a wide range of age groups attending the event and to see a varitety of talent through all the acts. I am looking forward to the next event but this time will be purchasing seat tickets ;-)

This was the first time I had attended G-Taranaki and I was totally blown away by the calabar of performances. The only change that I would have made was to not have a death metal band playing as I dont think it went along with the other acts, but that is just my personal opinion. The highlight was definitely seeing Slash and Miles Kennedy who were amazing and was probably a once in a life time but heres hoping they come back to NZ in the future.

The line up for the G-Taranaki Saturday show featuring Slash was top notch. Slash's performance was well worth waiting for.

my son was disappointed that the mosh pit was behind the seating area and we are not happy with the seating being on on level.

The facilities in the venue is not up to scratch for a large crowd espeically when the break times are short and everyone is wanting to purchase food at the same time with limited Eft-pos and credit facilities and limited number of good quality food options.

The toilet facilities were the same with only one indoor toilet for ALL the silver and gold ticket holders

I didn't really know what to expect as this was my first G-Taranaki.
And now, 4 days later I'm still buzzing. Slash and his band with Myles Kennedy were just the ultimate way to top off the complete package.
The sound, the performers and the other punters there were all awesome.

Slash was his usual self- a world class guitarist as he hit the riffs, top hat and all!!! The new material from his solo album is excellent but to hear it live took it to another level. Miles Kennedy was excellent as the singer - he & the rest of the band supported Slash really well.

Favourite moment: Slashes intro riff to Sweet Child O' Mine @

Opening act(s): Shotgun Alley good. I was not quite sure about In Dread Response playing at 5.45 in the evening. Metal is not my thing and I do like to hear most of the words when sung. This group impressed me as they were good musicians but I was surprised at their clean cut image @

WOW what an amazing night. Unforgetable! Slash and Myles Kennedy dominated the stage. Hard to notice who else was on stage. Slash was on the other side of stage from me but did come to my side half dozen times. Myles being in the middle of stage (he also came to my side of stage too) was so dominant. Great voice well suited to all the songs. I so impressed I have another person to follow now. Hail and Tim Owens also very impressive. Vinnie Moore was also awsome and had lots of expression in his performance. Myles, Tim & Vinne are wonderful at working the crowd and their professionalism very noticeable. What an opportunity for our locals to mix and mingle with people of that calibre. Another amazing night for me. A night I did not want to end. An emotional night for me as I will never have the opportunity to travel to see Slash anywhere else in the world.

One of the best events I've attended (Live Aid at Wembley being the best). This was much more intimate . Enjoyed every moment of the concert. Great venue. Well organised. Ran on time. Refreshments were reasonably priced and every set was fantastic. I couldn't believe I was only a few feet away from Slash. That image is burned into my eyes. He was top of my list of people I wanted to see live.

Great performances, enjoyed them all. It was great to be able to be up close this high calibre of talent. I don't think you'll get the same intimate atmosphere having it at the bowl of brooklands.
