allwaystired Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Just been watching a rerun of an old episode of Top Of The Pops (for those out of the UK- it was a popular chart music show- sadly missed!) and they had an 'exclusive' Live And Let Die- live video. Incredible recording- Axl in kilt, Sorum on drums, Izzy on guitar. Slash in a Ferrari t-shirt. Anyone know where it could be taken from? Looked to be an open air stadium. It's certainly not a clip I remember seeing before.....but I could simply have forgotten! Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basic_GnR_Fan Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 I would assume that's Wembley in August of 91 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's the recording they played at the 91 MTV VMA's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Axl asking several times 'if it was time yet' to someone side of stage. We had no idea that it was gonna be shown live. I also remember Axl muttering about 'that's real professional people' in a very sarcastic tone just after. Probably my favourite show, my ears were ringing and lost my voice after the show 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl also at the end of the concert said something along the lines of "thank you for that video you helped us make" One of the best days of my life. My back hurt for a couple of days after that as was right at the front and there was a slight ramp that you had to try and stay on whilst getting shoved around. Perfect Crime as the opener was killer! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember NIN getting booed though It was great to hear the UYI stuff before the albums came out too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allwaystired Posted November 23, 2021 Author Share Posted November 23, 2021 Sounded brilliant.....and yet again it struck me how much great stuff is clearly professionally recorded and just being left to rot. So infuriating. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powderfinger Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 This wound up on the live and let die single also. Wembley 91 is arguably the last great GnR performance .. It’s not that they sucked, but they were definitely different after it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was in better shape by the time Skid Row took to the stage "get the fuck out" and Seb reading that letter out was epic. Was great to hear the UYI songs albeit a bit confused when Izzy sang 14 years. 92 was a good show too with Brian May coming on for 2 songs. Good times Edited November 24, 2021 by waxl1974 Spelling 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good times I remember the letter (from the council I believe) and yeah everyone cheered '92 was good too but '91 and '93 were the best imo. One of the better things about being older is we got to see some cool bands in their prime 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
