alangarcianr Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 La Plata 2017 had a lot of energy too. Was there and it was amazing. after the ‘you’re gonna die’ scream Axl said something like ‘feels like 1987!’ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny when you look Axl in 2006 and then 2016 with Ac/dc. He looks like a different guy. That 2006 hair was cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agustingloger Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 2006 Axl was pure 🔥 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Riggs Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 The best is obviously subjective, but the most important was obviously MTV Awards 88. It helped solidify them as being great/cool as fuck in the minds of the public at large. That propelled them to the heights they achieved. PS: It’s kinda interesting how that same song and event was chosen by Axl to really introduce his new version of the band 14 years later…only it ended up garnering the opposite results. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NovaRock Festival, Greece, Download (both Ireland and UK), London, Newcastle, Manchester, Toronto, San Franisco, 3 LA Shows and much more were MUCH better than Rock Am Ring. edit: sorry, i`ve just read that you WERE in that show. Didn`t meant to be disrespectul. i would love to see pro shots from those shows, think about you 2006 la was EPIC Just now, darkside259 said: i would love to see pro shots from those shows, think about you 2006 la was EPIC they even play down on the farm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallasgnrfan Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Paris 1992; Tokyo 1992; VMA's 1988; Argentina 1992/1993 Some mentioned Coachella 2016, and damn it sounds great - a number of the 2016 versions were really solid (as previously mentioned).

I felt bad for my other buddies who had tix for the second night. What time did the Chicago '92 show end? The bootleg of that gig is my favorite bootleg of all time. I remember watching it for the first time in early January of 1994 and freaking out when I heard the intro to Coma. As we know, there were no internet spoilers in those days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 2006 hair was cool. But we’re you saying that in ‘06? I’d say 95% of fans hated on it. I’ve always liked it, thought it was so badass to go along with his classic attitude back along with the “high class, rockstar” look with the blazers and vests.

Stress Fracture Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Rio 2001 was an average performance but the crowd elevates it to greatness. That shot of the woman losing her mind before they go into the final chorus is *chef’s kiss*. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was born in 1993 I ordered the VHS from a dealer who was advertising thousands of bootlegged concert VHS tapes in the back of rock magazines like Circus and RIP. The Chicago tape cost $30. I also ordered the Indiana 91 VHS which also cost $30. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulMonster Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I loved that feeling when you visited a new record store and while browsing "G" found new bootlegs. Just that feeling of seeing a cover you had never seen before but with "Guns N' Roses" printed on it and then turn it roudn to see what songs it contained, hoping there would be something there you'd never heard before. Good times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found Guns N' Roses - Unplugged and had the same feeling you're talking about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
