  1. Could someone please explain how to get YT videos working in posts? 

    I've looked around a bit and found nothing about this, my apologies if I missed something obvious.

    Thanks in advance!

  2. I felt that Portugal was playing on Ronaldo, and Ronaldo alone. Stark contrast to Spain, which made the way they played far more enjoyable to me. 

    The fact that Ronaldo made it seem like he doesn't understand the concept of sportsmanship didn't exactly improve the situation.

    That’d be great!! Along with Dust N’ Bones, I’d be one happy camper. I’m not too too fond of the Indiana show like everyone else, I want to be able to hear Izzy hopefully, and a good 1991 proshot is what we’re missing

    The mix of Noblesville is really strange, and Axl just sounds a bit... off throughout the show. Yeah, a 1991 pro-shot would be super cool, Wembley, Mannheim, Inglewood, Mountainview or the first night in Toronto in particular. Imagine one of those with the same sound quality as Saskatoon...

    Thanks for pulling up the quote! I looked at the set lists for all the proshot stuff he mentioned, doesn’t seem to have any rare songs, minus Dead Horse from the 1993 show; although I looked at the Helsinki show and it says they opened up with Brownstone... 😂 anyone know if they did? The August 13th show. Would be nice if that show included decent quality versions of Perfect Crime and Dust N’ Bones; easily my favorite 1991 songs.

    My guess is that it's likely to be the beginning of the show given that he said it was around 30 minutes long. That is pretty close to the point where Axl left. So, we should indeed be getting Perfect Crime. 

  5. "This has nothing to do with the actual topic here although I can't wait to see that footage.

    But if someone here (preferably in Europe as I live in Austria now so sending would not take too long) is able to digitize from VHS, Video8 and Hi8 I would have a few tapes that might be interesting for the fans here. I don't have a player anymore for neither of them so I can't take pics or videos of the TV but I'm not asking for money just for someone transferring the footage for free - a proper copy of the stuff would be nice though after it's done :D and obviously it should be shared somehow after for free (torrent, YT, whatever)

    The footage I'm talking about would be:

    Amsterdam - October 2nd, 1987 - VHS Unknown Gen, 20 minutes recorded by the venue with 1 cam, transferred badly to VHS but watchable.

    Manchester - October 6th, 1987 - Master Video8, audience shot of the full gig.

    Tokyo - December 10th, 1988 - Master Hi8, audience shot of the full gig.

    Helsinki - August 13th, 1991 - VHS probably 1st Gen, about 30 minutes pro filmed with 1 cam. No idea who filmed it but I guess a TV station. Got the tape from a finnish workmate years ago.

    Vienna - May 23rd, 1992 - VHS from the master tapes, about 90 minutes pro footage filmed by Austrian TV station ORF with 2 cameras as far as I remember. Not all from the gig though, there's a few interview clips with the band and fans plus maybe 5 minutes of the soundcheck, so around 60-70 minutes gig footage. Aside from a few interviews none of this eas shown on TV

    Vienna - June 2nd, 1993 - VHS from the master tapes, full gig pro footage, multicam, also by ORF with 2 or 3 cams. None shown on TV

    Lyon - July 9th 1993 - 2 Master Hi8 tapes (one shot from the side of the stage and one between fist row and stage) and 1 VHS badly cut together by both. Audience, full gig.

     

    All of them are legit as I watched them all. I would have a few other which I can't confirm as I haven't watched them ever but I would send them too, maybe they are real. Also I have some Video8 and Hi8 tapes filmed by myself from US and UK gigs but they are far from pro but maybe you want to see them.

    So if someone is able to digitize them properly I'm happy to give the tapes away."

     

    This is what he siad.

    Rocket Queen benefits from being stripped back to 4/5 minutes, none of this 11 minute treatment that they're doing nowadays. I felt the outro to RIRIII was too bare. Richard Fortus was the meat and potatoes of the song from 2011/14, the wee guitar fills he put in were just sublime. 

    I will lean more towards RIRIII out of the two though. Check out this.

     

    No clue about why they put long solos in RQ. Take the version from Hammersmith 1987, great performance but 8 minutes of guitar and drum solos. Who thought that was a good idea?

    It’s just a hypothetical. What you dream would be able to happen. I know it wouldn’t happen but I would love to see it. Some of the other guys are putting Chinese songs on a skin n bones tour. It’s not meant to be realistic.

    Hair Of The Dog is fine but Madagascar isn't?  Look at the CD songs as covers if you like - made by a different band, performed by GNR. Also, I took for granted that you mean current, old guns?

    Since the original thread is deleated I cannot verify on my own. Hence my question:

     

    Where has this bootleg popped up first? Did someone see in a store in Japan or a japanese website or ebay without knowing what it is? 

    Who was the lucky first one of us who saw it and found out what gem we stumbled across? :-)

    Think a reputable Japanese twitter account posted about it, and that it eventually was released on Ebay.
