Longest GNR show+ Izzy+ UYI songs

35 songs, no stupid jams other than drum solo, guitar solo & piano, no Axl disappearing for "oxygen breaks" 10 times, opened with 'Perfect Crime', set also included 'Yesterdays', 'Jungle' was song 18, 'Double Talking Jive', 'Pretty Tied Up', encore one=8 songs, encore two= 2 songs to close- 'Estranged' and 'Paradise'. That boys & girls was a GnR concert. Cheers!

Im sure it would have been awesome to go the any of the GN'R gigs in the early 90s, but I'm under the impression the "new GN'R" plays songs such as Estranged just as good, or better, than the old band. But as for the good old rock n roll songs from appetite there is nothing that can compare to the original lineup, hence why I would've loved to be at the Ritz in 88.

If it included shows I've seen, Ritz 2012 would still be my choice. That show was just amazing...better than any Maiden show I've even been to. If I had to pick a show I haven't seen, it'd be one of these:

So if we pretend you haven't been to any GN'R concert, and you could go to only one between 85-2012 you would pick a 2012 show? :blink:

Exactly. Guns at their absolute highest heights IMHO on their own "home turf". T2/YCBM was still a HUGE craze. UYI release was FINALLY visible. Grunge hadn't really hit yet. Unquestioned kings of rock. Phenomenal set-list, etc. must have been awesome...

Have any of you people that are saying Ritz 88 ever seen any of their other concerts from the 80's? Most of them were better. Go watch Felt Forum for example. It might not be as good audio and video quality, but the band is far better.

Stuck between

Argentina 93

Rio 01 (it would be cool to see the band/exitement of the first BIG concert of the new band first hand.)

Boston 02

Rock Am Ring 06

Probably would chose boston 02 followed by Rock Am Ring 06.

If you could go back in time to see/experience only one Guns N' Roses concert between 1985-2012 - you can choose any concert you want - which one would you choose and why?

I think I would've chosen Ritz in 1988. Because it's the original lineup without the big arena production, no piano, a really good setlist (appetite) and the concert was taped so I can look at it for years to come and say I was there :)
