You understand the entire purpose of filming that concert at the time was to make a music video for YCBM? It was never intended for us to see it all, as a full show, like other bands full filmed shows intended to be released officially, as a full concert... 30 years later we are lucky we even got to see it lifted from the vaults in the first place, and re-used for that purpose, since it's incredible footage. Since there's 0 piano in the song it's pretty understandable to me that the camera guys focused on members you actually hear on the song because they needed as much footage of them as possible to choose from.

Ok apologies if this has been addressed in another thread. So I've finally gotten a reasonably priced UYI super deluxe edition (7 CD and Blu Ray version). Obviously the first disc I play is the Blu Ray. And whilst it's a great performance from Izzy era Illusion tour one thing sucks. Did whoever the camera people were forget about Dizzy? You can see his piano on the left hand side of the stage. If you squint you can see him in the shadows. I think one of the only times you see him when Axl introduces him during Estranged. I know he's not an original member and most fans probably watch for Axl, Slash n Duff. But Matt wasn't an original member and we see plenty of him. I don't know about everyone else. But if I buy something which contains a Blu Ray concert of a favourite artist/band I expect to see the whole fucking band. 

Are you sure you're not confusing Axl with someone else? 😵‍💫🤨💡🤔 I can't see Axl not showing up to rehearsals. 😵‍💫

But he says the band split due to "overwhelming enthusiasm, and that "DIVE IN AND FIND THE MONKEY" attitude", not due to a lack of it. Unless he's being sarcastic, I guess? I think Slash has admitted he was mentally checked out from like early 1995 onward. But Slash was showing up to rehearsals, at least. Axl wasn't. Kinda hard to "find the monkey" if you never show up to the jungle, Axl...

The End of Tomorrow is a cool epic tune, Slash's solo sound a bit out of place tho, very rock n'roll but not very epic in its approach, something more classical like what he has done on Anastasia would have sound better imo
