I still can't imagine them coming back to St Louis and doing a 1 off at that Stadium, I don't think these shows are the huge money makers they had hoped for with all the reduced ticket prices so I am not sure it is in their financial interest to have them schlep back to St Louis and all the extra costs involved to play for a minimal paycheck, not to mention late October/November where it will likely be cold out by showtime and there will probably be alot of refund requests.

I tend to agree, it's odd the band or management hasn't made any real statement

Yea they might. Think second half of Oct is doable for outdoors but November is pushing it. Saw them at the Dome in 17 and it was great but was looking forward to a Busch show. Weather is perfect today too. Damn it!

I'd say the enterprise center far more likely than the dome

So the St Louis show is cancelled. At least I didn’t end with Axl jumping off stage.

Postponed, will be played at a later date

Axl looks great in those pictures. This is me speculating but I wonder if it hits him a bit harder as someone who's had issues with his health and seemed to look notably healthier in the past year? She was 6 years younger than him and died of cardiac arrest.

She was a long time drug abuser, the toxicology is not back yet, but it all but guaranteed to show opioids and years of abuse killed her.  Very similar to the damage Scott Wieland did to himself over years

As i said in another thread, this show is simply awesome.  I LOVE PTU as an opener.  Seeing YCBM with different lyrics (accident or actual lyrics that got changed0 was cool as hell.  Just the looseness of the whole show, the spontaneity, you will NEVER see that again, from almost any band, and especially not the current incarnation of Guns. 

The quality of the video, mind-blowing.  Looks like it was meant to be shown on the big screen, ala Rattle and Hum or any of a million movies with similar quality.

Overall, as others have said, this is the best thing they've put out since the UYI albums themselves! 

Excellent episode, Tim is loaded with info and Memorabilia 

i just love the Ritz blue ray.  Its a fucking shame they didn't put this out, oh say YEARS ago, but better late than never.  And why the hell didn't they keep using Pretty Tied Up as an opener more often?  Its really perfect, hell it virtually vanished from most set lists, along with RNDTH.

All in all, this is the best GNR Release since the illusions themselves which i gladly bought on my way to senior year of HS in September 1991

You guys do know the entire UYI tour was filmed like this show, the perfect crime documentary was shelved some point after the tour and exists.  I asked duff and slash about it at a Velvet Revolver Meet and Greet, Duff apologetically said "oh man, that was all shelved".  Slash leaned over and asked Duff "what did he say?"...Duff "he asked about the documentary"

That is the holy grail for Guns N Roses fans

this Ritz show was awesome though, so many of these scenes i remember from seeing the YCBM video so many times from when it first came out in 1991.  Amazing how many clips i instantly recognized 

April 9th 1992, i was there.  Still the best show i've ever seen from ANY band.  It was overwhelming.  Quite possibly the top 5 of ALL Guns shows

It's here! I can play it in the Czech Republic!!! 

 

Been watching tennis all week from OSTRAVA

It's definitely attached to another song, the drums at the very beginning show that.

I'm surprised it's not a stand alone version.

Like a day in the life by the Beatles, there are two versions, most use the fade in from the reprise before it, but the isolated guitar version at the start is great, and rare

Hard Skool was originally recorded during the sessions for Guns N’ Roses’ 2008 album Chinese Democracy, under the title Jackie Chan. Sections of the song has been leaked over the years, and a full version of the song was leaked in 2019.

The middle part feels like it's missing something

Like, there is a lot more that could be done there

If you should compare it to another GNR song? What would you say? 

As a straight forward rocker it's probably better than anything on Chinese Democracy

Love it!!!

Keep coming, Guns N' Roses.

I think the reviews will be much more positive than Absurd.

Literally anything would be better LOL

Outstanding show, seen it numerous times

Anyone transcribe the lyrics yet.  Some stuff can't really be understood

Sounds as good as it did 2 years ago!

Why the fuck they operate the way they do is the biggest mystery

he dropped his voice a lot of times tonight, maybe he's sick. Happened in Better, You Could Be Mine and now on Paradise City. 

Sick LOL

He gets sick more than any human being that isn't dead already
