Welcome to the Jungle - Rock in Rio III (2001) vs Rock in Rio VII (2017)

[ToonGuns]

For me, hate to say it, but the "reunion hype" has long passed. 2017 intro something was off (rhythm guitar maybe?), and Frank plays it too slow. He literally slows it down at the start.

I thought I was gonna vote for 2001. But the 2017 version sounds really good (especially AXL being 16 years older)

The crowd however, when you see RIR III. That's a winner

[Lies They Tell]

I can't stand Axl's 2001 voice, so 2017. Although that particular WTTJ is pretty bad compared to most 2017 versions.

Yeah he was rocking abs at the Vegas 2001 shows, probably because he was embarrassed after most media outlets kept using this photo in their stories about Rio:

I thought so.

There's a photograph out there of Axl on a balcony looking lean. Shiny blue jacket, single braid and all.

The Freak show vs The Horror show. Oh boy...this band... I respectfully abstain.

in fact, not only the brazilian Rock in Rio exists, but also other ones, like Rock in Rio Lisboa, which GNR also attended: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_in_Rio

so GNR appearances at RIR: 2 (1991), 3 (2001), 4 (2011) and 7 (2017)
and RIR Lisboa: 2 (2006).

the band was also scheduled to play at RIR Lisboa 1 (2004), but later cancelled it due to Buckethead's departure.

Yeah, Foo Fighters took the Lisboa spot. Dave Grohl had a few choice words.

The 2001 rio intro scream was amazing
