Dust N Bones is a mean fucking tune. That and 14 Years, 2 great songs.

agreed! They've been on my ipod non stop the last few weeks.

Excellent and oft-overlooked song.  Along with most of the non-hit UYI tracks, it undeservedly gets called "filler" by many of the uninitiated. 

agreed. I was so happy when they started playing it live in 1993. Hopefully they bring it back.

Enjoyed it- thanks for making these.

If it had a better chorus, it's probably a GnR classic radio hit w/ Jungle, PC, SCOM, CW, LALD, etc... It's strange how such a weird chorus got into what is otherwise a masterpiece.

As is, still an incredible song. Some of Axl's best work.

thanks! Yeah i wish they would have had a different chorus and outro.

i would flip out if they added it to the setlist this year

so these were the last tracy and roberta shows...

thanks for clarifying that!

 

and japan shows. Japan shows had horns and backup singers too. 

I picked up the pop rocks figures earlier this week and gave my thoughts on them.

It is actually available on the dark streets of the internet if you know where to find it lol. I mean... not that I would do anything like that. Just saying seek and you shall find.

oh you're right. I got it from one of those dark streets.....

i had found some footage from new zealand show around the same time included an interview with matt sorum and some pro shot footage but sadly it got pulled off youtube for some reason within a week of it getting posted. 

My look at the GNR pinball machine released by Data East in 1994 including the Gilby lawsuit. Did anyone get a chance to play or buy the machine? I went to an arcade the other night they had the metallica, stones and kiss machine, but no GNR sadly.

I have been following this post and should probably start reading it tonight. I waited for the epub version because it was "cheaper".

I was also kind of skeptical because it is Mick Wall. 

i tweeted to mick and he said the book is not available yet in north america. 

just got a copy of the book. It's over 900 pages long but so far 60 pages in and he recycles a lot of the stuff in steven, duff and slash's book.

@sidman69 Really great work, man ! I will check out your other videos soon for sure.

For me the garden is one of the darkest GnR-Songs in terms of atmosphere, always loved it.

Thanks! Yeah I love the Garden. I have some other videos coming including a look back at the history of the GNR pinball machine and the lawsuit that resulted from it being released. Should be coming out this week sometime.

Let me start by saying I applaud what you are doing. I am also a "youtuber" so I understand how much work goes into channels that most folks don't realize. I also will say I like most of your videos, and watch a great many of them. 

That brings me to my post here today, I realize that your channel is more geared towards those that want info but are not gnr die hards That frequent message boards (because if I am honest with you, most of your videos are based on things I read on this forum yesterday, but am watching a video on today), so basically old news for folks like me. Which is fine, I'm not knocking you for that. But the video that you released today kinda irritated me, to be honest with you. It was the one about guns releasing new music, and you talked about the Eddie trunk interview. Which obviously that is very old news at this point, but that's neither here nor there.

When you brought up Izzy, and pretty much declared that Izzy wrote their best songs, and you don't think guns can make good music without him. That really irritated me for a few reasons. For one, you claim to have a news channel, so report the news, don't give your opinions on it. If I wanted your opinions I would ask you on a place like this, not By watching your video. Which you are entitled to your opinions on Izzy, that's fine, I don't have a problem with that. But the way you presented them in the video was rather matter of fact, which I felt was very presumptuous on your part. For two, I love Izzy as much as the next guy, but I'm not going to sell Axl, Slash, and Duff THAT short as to say "they can't make good music without Izzy." Come on man, give them some credit. Was Izzy underrated? Yes absolutely. But I don't think Axl, Slash, and Duff would write a bunch of turds without him. Besides some of there biggest songs he does NOT have a song writing credit on. 

I just find it a little disingenuous for you to spread your opinions on a "news" channel. Just report the news man, don't make it. If I wanted opinions on "news" I would watch Fox news. But beyond that, don't use your new platform as a way to advance an agenda. Thays just really cheap imo. 

Overall, like I said earlier, I really like what you are doing. So don't take this post as an insult on your entire channel, because it's not. I just took exception to that one video. I also chose to discuss this on this forum as opposed to your video comments because, let's be honest man, you are getting your "news" from this forum. 

Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it 

Back with another episode of a highly requested song Get in the Ring. Check it out down below

Cheers man, I remember watching this before and Axl was definitely on one. 

Although Axl's performances were close to their peak back then I'm so glad he's not like this anymore in 2016 and he's a happier frontman overall!

yeah the most recent example was when they played dublin in 2010 i think and you could see he wasn't enjoying himself.

Cool video.

FYI, the Hannover concert link is no longer viewable

oh damn, thanks, here's the link, i guess it got reposted. Axl barely moves during the show, but the crowd still really seems into it.
