jman2000 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Anyone know who this is? I know it's not the official GNR... that was Uzi Suicide and is long dead by now. They claimed by "Guns N' Roses Better Official Video" on YouTube and it was taken down. It looks like a bunch of BS to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattElias Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Axl asked to Metallica if they could use their touring images on the video. At that time, GNR was with UZI Suicide. Nowadays they are with Universal Music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jman2000 Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 They were Black Frog at the time if I believe. Not Uzi Suicide. That ended after TSI? correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellobeatle Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Well it looks phony to me - unless it's registered outside Calif. I can only find: Entity Name: UZI SUICIDE FILMS, INC. Entity Number: C1836148 Date Filed: 08/03/1992 Status: SUSPENDED Jurisdiction: CALIFORNIA Entity Address: 11355 W OLYMPIC BLVD Entity City, State, Zip: LOS ANGELES CA 90064 Agent for Service of Process: RICHARD FELDSTEIN Agent Address: % SIEGEL & FELDSTEIN, 1990 BUNDY DR #590 Agent City, State, Zip: LOS ANGELES CA 90025 My guess is UZI Suicide had a name change to UZI Suicide Films and then suspended operations. It is suspended so it legally can't be doing business - at least without corporate protection. I guess they could pull some de facto or de jure status but doubtful.

I guess they could pull some de facto or de jure status but doubtful.Well, it looks like UZI SuicidAL LLC is completely made up. If it is, then there's a whole bunch of questions and possibilities.I just got home from the office so I'm not going to go on some legal diatribe - but if it is made up, then technically he has no standing to send a demand to YouTube on behalf of GN'R. But on a practical note, the material is infringing on copyright and he's not bringing financial harm to GNR (or financial gain to himself) by sending some fake demand letter off to YouTube, so I can't see any parties getting in a knot about it.

jman2000 Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 Well Uzi Suicide is dead. His name isn't even that. It's Uzi Suicidal. I will post our emails here. He hasn't answering back since I asked him who he's representing.Me: May I ask why my video on YouTube was taken down and who you are representing? ThanksHim: it is not your content to put up. you did not create the content nor did you pay for the content to be created. Therefore you do not have the right to put the content up on your youtube channel. It is property of Guns N Roses.Me: Why is there another video just like mine and that one isn't taken down? It is called fair use my friend. I claim no ownership at all just sharing the video with others. You are not representing Guns N' Roses in any way because others have informed me of you.Him: your friends are misinformed. just because you claim no ownership does not give you the right to do whatever you want with content you do not own.you need to read up on the basic laws of copyright.if you care to send me the link to the other video i will have it down in 5 minutesMe: All you have to do us type in Guns N' Roses better official video. And you never answered who you are representing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean c'mon, the instrumental Welcome to the Jungle rehearsal (prior to some recent tour) didn't need to be taken down. That's just such bullshit. I understand that certain gigs and certain footage has to remain in the vault, but rehearsal footage?! Really? Filmed with bumblefoot's shitty laptop web cam and distorted audio. We can't have that even?? Pisses me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jman2000 Posted January 24, 2013 Author Share Posted January 24, 2013 If he isnt official in any way how does he get videos taken down?Just reports them as copyright infringement of Uzi Suicidal. Well it seems he can't answer me when I asked him about who he is representing, so obviously not GNR. YouTube needs to crack down on these assholes and ban them.

WhazUp Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Has there been any attempt ever to message Youtube regarding this guy?Maybe he is just some dude who likes taking down videos to piss people off and knows that Youtube won't question the copyright claims because they are really cautious when handling that kind of stuff? That is my theory personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
