I went to see GNR live in Hamilton in 2009 (?). It was basically a different band, except for Axl and Dizzy Reed. But even still I had a blast! They played some of the new stuff from Chinese Democracy and lots of classics like sweet child of mine and night train. I'm a huge GNR fan, so as long as they sound good I have no problem with what Axl looks like nowadays, and they sounded pretty damn good for a live performance.
