Popular Post circusboy666 Posted May 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2020 Man I went to the Hammerstein shows and have them all on disc...those were some insanely amazing nights. The atmosphere was electric and the band, especially Robin, was so fucking good. Axl was fired up at those shows and you could see him and Tommy having so much fun. Wish a legit pro shot was released someday of those 4 shows. I would love a live era from 00-14...some of my favorite lineups(earlier on)and completely underrated and they were determined to just say fuck you. 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I made a compilation 5 years ago of all available soundboards from that period. Would love to find time to revise it and use sources that have since come out, but the thought of investing that much time when DJ Ashba features is not time well spent. Some great fucking shows Axl and the guys put on over that period. Just a shame one album is all there is to show for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circusboy666 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I’ve seen guns close to 20 times. My issue with using YouTube based selections is from seeing them I know it’s not a great representation of how they sound live(specifically axl). I’ve been to shows where he’s been destroyed online by his vocals where seeing it live it sounded much better. we would need professional cuts of these songs from the sound board...also remember the evolution of the CD songs throughout the years. The live sound changed quite a bit. part of me thinks live box set showing of each time of the band 2002/2006/2010 etc to show the differences between the sound of the lineups. Each formation can make each song sound different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UsedYourIllusion Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I really appreciate the great musicianship of the NuGNR lineups. Not that the UYI lineup didn't have that, the '93 shows really show how well they mastered those performances. I honestly was so skeptical listening to the Nu lineup because Axl wasn't always consistent, and Ashba sucks, but Robin, Fortus, and Bumble really brought a lot of the old GN'R songs and gave them a great, modern twist. CD is a great album to perform live. Plus, they times that Axl is on fire, The Hammerstein show, immediately comes to mind; it blows my mind. I may be in the minority, but the '02 tour only has a couple decent performances; but 06-07, and 09-10 are sooooooooo good. Thanks to @RussTCB for pointing me to the 07 shows. We need more GN'R proshots damnit! They need to stream and upload some like Metallica has been 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ponytail/goatee/leather vest Axl was a different animal. Hungry and out there to prove himself with a band so dialed in and locked in on their parts. Those couple of years generated some truly unbelievable performances. Robin/Bumble/4tus was a remarkable trio that fit so goddamn well together. Not sure there's ever been an era of Guns that matches that lineup for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
