IncitingChaos Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 With a current tour going on I'm not sure how many are interested but this YouTube account seems to be posting some great footage from 2006 that he said he's compiled over time. Really some great performances in there. im sure most of this isn't rare but still pretty cool to see, it's like watching a periscope from 2006 of complete shows haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IncitingChaos Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 Rock am Ring is obvious haha incredible proshot we got there. I always liked 06 videos Bc nobody had good cameras on their phones then, so it's always rare when you get a good video of a show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three out of four times I was lucky to have Axl in his best vocal shape of the decade (Belgium Graspop '06, Sportpaleis' 10 & Axl/DC Werchter '16). GMM' 12 wasn't my thing, but the 2006 gig has a special place in my heart. After worshiping Guns since I was 11 (I got UYI I & II from my grandparents who weren't proficient in English :)), I finally got to see them and 90% of the show was spot on. Last year Axl ran around excessively. He's still might charismatic, but that year he brought his most badass self to annihilate the stage. Shame almost everybody , including the press, decided not to like the show before it happened. I hope he brings his A-game 'one more f*ckin' time tonight ' at Werchter' 17. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mooch14 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I might have to dig out some of the old videos from my '06 Worcester MA show. I know there was some technical difficulties that night, but I remember how badass Axl sounded that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNR 1991 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Here are some more full shows from 2006 (KROQ and RIR are proshot of course). The holy grail of 2006 where rare performances are considered has to be the Greensboro show where the band apparently played the AFD version of You're Crazy. Also, the Baltimore and final LA show are also extremely strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeyserSoze Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I always liked the 2006 Axl/version of the band.. Just something about him seemed so bad ass. He still had that not giving a fuck attitiude, but yet he seemed more refined and mature. Fincks guitar playing is amazing and i wish he was still around instead of Fortus. My favorite 2006 show we got full video of is Dublin. Half of the show is in day light, and the fans are crazy as a mother fucker. Axls vocals were pretty good throughout most of the show as well: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner55 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Man I miss 06. Axl looked like a badass and sounded awesome. Good times and the first time I got to see the band live. Chinese still had a mystique around it and hearing the songs live was cool. Was able to pick out real fans at shows by who knew what the hell was being played.

I just thought it was something he came up with on the spot during the nuGN'R days but if he played it more than once over a span of a couple of years it can't be very improvised, right? Is it a cover or some inside joke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got caught off guard for a second until I figured out what it was. Sounded great too. Fast and lots of energy, Axl sounded just like he did on AFD. The crowd dug it. Really pumped up, get the juices flowing type of moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
