jimb0 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I remember how Jimmy Fallon was wearing that AFD shirt and jumping around like a little girl, so excited "Guns n Roses is back!"And I'm willing to be Jimmy couldn't even name one of those guys aside from Axl. GNR my ass.People were excited because they thought Axl would do what he did in the end of the 80's and the early 90's. They (we) were so wrong...The idea of doing a medley of 3 songs (2 from Appetite) was a bad idea also... If he wanted to show how the band played the old songs just do a little intro, and then a new song in full. It was almost 10 years since the end of the Illusion tour.. you don't come back and play old songs, play a new one!I disagree it hyped the crowd up. Two short clips from Jungle and PC, and Maddy in the middle. My friend who watched it with me said... if that's what new Guns is writing and playing I'm definitely a fan.

I watched it with someone who was not a fan and I felt embarassed... I was excited before the performance but not after. Anyway, if he liked it, good.

gunsfanoldie Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I just rewatched it. I usually watch it once a year. Its definitely one of those things that is always funny. You keep thinking "it can't be as bad as I remember" and its always worse. He looked ridiculous, his vocals sucked, and it was a pretty poorly put together medley. Other than that, it really isn't HORRIBLE, but its really really bad. I can't even imagine what the other guys in the band thought watching it on TV.And the comedy icing on the cake for me is the "round one" comment. I feel like he means it to sound so serious and bad ass, and its one of the few things in life you can count on me crying from laughter every time I hear it. The most ridiculous statement. If there's a time I stop finding that funny, just kill me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard2k Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 that clip has been floating around for years. he doesn't have the full thing (nor is he claiming to). this leak probably hurt the chances of anyone getting the full thing, not that it really matters much. it's just a rehearsl for a TV show.lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gunns Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 that clip has been floating around for years. he doesn't have the full thing (nor is he claiming to). this leak probably hurt the chances of anyone getting the full thing, not that it really matters much. it's just a rehearsl for a TV show.lolI havent posted in a while, but I had to, just to clear this little matter up.I'll just make this quick, because I don't want to see lies perpetrated by msl on this matter any more.As I've stated on this forum before, I was the one who obtained this clip and decided to share it. Granted it wasn't long, and yes, by leaking it, it most definitely means that any chance of getting this in the future is pretty much miniscule now. However, when I had the opportunity to obtain this, not many people wanted to help out in pooling some funds together, so I decided to say fuck it and just release it, because those that appreciate the 2002 band/vma performance, appreciated the clip for what it was.Now, Msl has said repeatedly that this clip has been 'floating around for years'. I would like to see one link, printscreen or any proof whatsoever where this clip is proven to exist before the date that is posted on the youtube link (It existed before this, however I sent it to a few people with a watermark, in trying to get some interest together).So if msl wants to practice what he preaches, and provide some proof that its been floating around for 'years', then be my guest. I still have the emails , phone number/details etc of the clip and the guy who I got it off, i'm waiting on msls proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NGOG Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Maybe you should have consulted a forum publicly to garner funds to obtain the clip. If you had of approached the matter this way (instead of jumping the gun, presumably out of excitement) then maybe we could be in possession of this as a community.

Anyways, as some one who works in the entertainment industry and has some contacts at MTV, I am going to try and get my hands on this footage. I had tried a few years ago, but then forgot about it. I'll give it the old college try again! Hopefully I'll have some good news for you guys. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsh327 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I thought they showed the rehearsal footage on "MTV Uncensored", it sounds like someone who worked on it made a copy and smuggled it out. How long was the rehearsal? I think the only thing people are interested in is the stuff Axl was saying in between songs or hearing him go off on someone.It would be cooler if they got more raw interview footage and some unseen footage the MTV crew shot.

Crazyman Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I think the coolest thing that guy apparently has is a show (or shows?) that MTV taped in '92. Much rather see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweersa Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I wonder how much someone would pay for a VHS rip of the rehearsal to what ended up being a sub-par performance at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still really like to see it, especially now when nothing is happening.I actually still know those same people at Viacom/MTV. I had asked the question back then and they said they'd get back to me on it. Unfortunately it never happened, and I am not so close with those people where I feel I can hound them about it. Let me check my Linked In profile to see if any of my other former coworkers are over there now. Probably the easiest way to get this done is for me to apply for an opening over there, but I have heard working at Viacom can be miserable. Have heard way too many horror stories about them in my side of the business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows it might work, but I don't think you should go through the hassle of applying there for a couple minutes of rehearsal footage. Still would really like to see it tho, so if you really want to go through that trouble, be my guest ! Hope you will get it the easy way through those people you know at Viacom/MTV tho.
