scooby845 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Can anyone explain to me the girls at 0:14? I somehow think that it's footage from Appetite for Democracy DVD, since they had strippers and such... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Gunner Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 they need to bring the strippers back... they probably decided to remove them so the show would be more PG13 seeing how a lot of older fans were bringing their kids and such but personally i would like a little more sleeze please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it reminds me too much of the DJ Ashba era where they were trying too hard. It could be cool for one song maybe but after that it's rather silly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was cringey when NuGuns did it, and it was just as bad when they did it in 2016. I thought it brought some of the 'Vegas tackiness' from the residency shows to the 2016 shows. It's cheesy as hell to see strippers behind some 50+ year olds on a nostalgia tour. That's the kinda shit I'd expect from Motley Crue 12 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno if it is "old schoolmarms" as much as it is "not tacky" lol GNR in their 20's living on the streets of LA bringing their stripper friends and girlfriends to dance on stage? Authentic because that was their lifestyle. A bunch of multi-millionaire guys in their mid 50's hiring 20 year old models from an agency on stage to dance?

soon Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I wanna know if the dancers are unionized. I remember Roberta and Teddy sharing the story of the "girls" being abandoned at the stadium when the band fled one of the riots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I remember one of the leaked pro shots from the illusion era they had some girl up dancing provocatively and duff goes and pulls her shirt up. I always found the scene unbelievably sleazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop being such old schoolmarms. Lol if think you're such a "macho man" and needs to go to concerts to see girls dancing, onstage, you're probably doing something wrong. Its fuckin cringey, it was somewhat bizarre back then and its way out of line today. It just doesnt fit the atmosphere anymore, I wouldnt mind it if they still had the vibe for these things, but it just seems out of place with GNR now. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) You do know this is a band that got their start on the Sunset Strip basically? I mean you've heard the lyrics right, you've seen the album covers, you know this ain't Donnie and Marie? You can't on the one hand want the rough rugged and raw, hardcore, sleazy dirty rock n roll and then moan when its sleazy and dirty. Its like going to a punk gig in the 70s and then being put out by pogoing and weirdoes and gobbing. I've never been a big one for strippers and strip clubs and all that kinda shit, it always seemed to me to be the preserve of clammy handed inadequate little men myself but I wouldn't say its exactly out of place at a Guns n Roses show, in fact its probably a fitting place for it.

Yes, that's part of it. They have always been low-brow and tacky. Cartoonish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
