What was the deal with the woman in Ritz video?

[romeorose]

In the 1988 GNR Ritz concert uncut video on youtube....

There's a pretty woman that is in the audience and it looks like she has a baggie with coke in it? Or maybe I'm seeing things?

And she is reaching for Slash's hand and touches or grabs his hand while he is playing.

The the security grab her and she is kicking at them as they pull her on stage and take her away and that's when Axl says "Looks like we got a little nakedness here, this is fun I like this, keep fighting honey or you're out of the show"

Does anyone know what the story behind that lady was? What did they remove her for and what was it that she was trying to do?

bag of coke?

i have seen that video 18 million times and i know exactly what you are talking about

i just never see any bag of coke at all

[cspalding22]

she does have something in her hand, not sure how you can conclude it is coke though

[SWINGTRADER]

She was high that is for sure. Don't know about any coke in her hand.

i know towards the middle of the show she's grabbing on to slash a lot, to the point where she almost grabs his dick. i think he even shook her off of him a couple of times. i think thats the same girl... who knows. that show looked crazy as hell

What time does this crazy girl appear.?

What time does this crazy girl appear.?

i know the crowd goes absolutely batshit insane during "Out Ta Get Me" (the third song in the set) and looking back at the video, their are a lot of people touching and throwing stuff at Slash when he walks over and poses with the camera.

wait!!! i think i found it! (maybe)

3:09, Slash bends down while playing the solo and someone from the crowd grabs the headstock of his guitar. Slash reacts to this by swinging his guitar back which produces that wrong note before Axl screams "LEMME SEE YA TRY". This could possibly be our girl, but its hard to tell because all of those people were going ape shit

5:52, the girl pops out of the crowd either on someones shoulders or crowd surfing. she looks like she is on someones shoulders though

at 5:58 she shifts her weight on whoever she's on top of and is now very close to slash

at 6:06, she literally grabs slashes right arm (his pick hand), while people from the crowd try to hold her back, and Slash brushes her off.

She then quite literally falls onto the stage.

I think the problem was she either tried to crawl onto the stage (Slash and Axl literally make a wall and stare her down, but she is out of the view of the camera) or, and this one is more likely, the security jumped on her to get her off stage while she was trying to get back into the packed crowd and when they jumped her, she fought back and some sort of nudity happened and also why Axl told her to fight to stay in the show. There was no bag or anything. she was holding onto Slash to get her balance

EDIT:

oh shit.. the whole view of it is right here:

33:24 is when you first see her

at 33:41 she either jumps at Axl or is pushed, then she tries to get back in the crowd and is taken out by security

the crowd holds her back and the security ends up pulling her pants down
