Dean Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I think it's great at showing just how amazing a GN'R show is. The only bad thing about it is the band introduction, there was no need. A bit more editing though and it would have been fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young_Gun Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) awful video Agreed. Bach put out a live montage video for Love is a bitchslap... Bach... GnR should have had a decent budget video but that was never going to happen. For one the label weren't going to fork out millions for GnR and secondly, who can imagine Axl being in front of a camera, miming and acting etc these days. I certainly can't. That and having 7 unknown dudes in the background would have looked downright weird for Guns... Edited January 17, 2013 by Young_Gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Drama Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I think the ending is great, the "exit Lars" part.I thought that was kinda dumb. They leave you with Sebastian Bach and Lars Ulrich screwing around. Nothing to do with GNR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be akin to Bobby Plant of Led Zeppelin doing a Led Zeppelin video with 3 dudes that were never in the band. It's not that they weren't what the public knew, it's that instead of 4 other members, there are seven. Quite a difference and I feel it diminishes the personalities that each have because it's cluttered. Any band having 8 members in a music video would look weird, not just Guns.And you are wrong. Ashba joined sometime in 2009 officially, so he has been in the band for 4 years at best. The original/classic line up were together for more than 5. Small difference but still a difference.

star Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 why make a video and not put it out ?..is this the first time in GN'R history a video was made but not put out ?Maybe it was because by the time the video was ready to put out, Buckethead had quit the band ?

BBA Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 It's interesting how every single topic seems to draw a dozen or so cupcakes just to make critical and condescending remarks about a band that they claim that they are fans of.How about if you dislike the video you explain why that is in an intelligent manner or just avoid the thread altogether? I think the video was great and wish that it would have seen an official release. Just another example of a lack of label support and having managers who had other agendas instead of what their focus should have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weaponsnflowers Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I liked the video, although it is very outdated. It's unfortunate Axl's attire isn't as sleek anymore. He looks really cool in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansidhe Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Still wonder if it was actually meant to be used for a Better single release (though I don't know who would play it) or it was more just a thing to circulate online as a promotional tool.
