SOH Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Heavily biased because I was at the show, but Pittsburgh 2002 was great. They were something like three hours late? The tension was building and everybody was on edge, then they show up and Axl says "Alright, everybody, put your money on the table...how many of you thought I wasn't coming?" and then after that, his rant about the Internet being a big garbage can. Even more true now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't hear anything properly I can't hear all of it, but basically he says that a guy from the crowd threw him his hat, Axl took it, put it on for a while and threw it back (as seen in the beginning of the video). A girl caught the hat, the guy went there to get it and and they both were attacked by three security guards. He says that he saw the guy having his eye cut and calling for help, but the security people didn't give a shit and all they cared for was to take the hat from him. Then he asks someone from the crew to check if the girl who caught the hat is alright and in the end he says the band doesn't want anyone to get hurt.

BlueJean Baby Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Since my internet is down..(AT&T sucks) I was just watching the 2012 02 Arena concert I had recorded on cable. Axl was funny as hell talking about having to cut the show short so people could catch the last train to get home safely...he says "I'm only here to help. I'm like Jesus, only bad. Bad Jesus" He had this huge smile on his face. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom-Ass Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 He had a bunch of great ones at one of the 1987 Pasadena shows. Almost every introduction to each song was just classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueJean Baby Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) There are several videos through the years of bottles being thrown, there's one where Axl gets really mad and says they are bottles of piss... these people are fuckin' morons...

I am not sure how anyone could do such a vile violent action directed toward anyone in any walk of life... and not expect some kind of retaliation. I am not sure how I would feel if someone tried to hurt me or someone I care about... problem is these guys were young and much more reactive back then and as we all know large crowds are dangerous, and you risk hurting others trying to retaliate. I am sure lessons learned and one of the reasons Axl doesn't seem to interact with the audience quite so much, and post 911 security at venues has improved Edited December 30, 2016 by metalms 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueJean Baby Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) I love the video from Philadelphia 2016 where Axl's telling jokes, tickling Slash and talking about the mean, mean old security. He is in such a good mood. For some reason I can't post it, but here is a link to it: https://youtu.be/cpjxbICS5hE Edited January 5, 2017 by BlueJean Baby typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.. Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 All these rants are part of why Axl was and will be remembered as the best frontman ever, I don't care what anyone else says (unless they agree). I hope someday we can find the original RAW recordings in high quality and transfer them all on a "Axl Rants Collection" Blu-Ray 4K. In 2117, all the 3.0 humans will have those rants implemented in their 3.0 digital brains. These rants are part of Human History. A great part of it. Anyway always appreciated those rants because it shows how passionate he is. He's not just going on stage to perform half-assed songs and take the money. He was deeply genuine in those rants, very careful of the crowd, and ready to take it godammit! We could just have A NICE TIME. But this was a wake-up call... cos you know where the fuck you are? Oh by the way, if anyone has the recording of a particular Welcome to the jungle live performance... Where Axl sings "Mother mother mother mother fucking knees knees" like he's possessed by Satan, i'd take it. I saw it once on Youtube but I can't manage to find it back. This was the best performance ever of WTTJ I swear, WHERE IS IT?????!!! (it was an early 90's performance, maybe late 80's) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhenYou'reTalkinToYourself Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 There was a video on youtube where a fan was running on the stage, security men went after him and took him down and Axl told them not to be so tough to him and to leave him. Or something like that. I can't find it anymore, so if someone can find it please post it (from 2006 or later). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
