jacdaniel Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 The Ritz - KOHD - Only 10 mins and 50 seconds... Weak Joking aside, delighted to finally have a proper live album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sounds raw, authentic and overall great you mean. 2 hours ago, aliexpress said: Out of curiosity is it the full show, ie with the stoppages between songs or have they cut it down to just the songs with minimal downtime in between? It includes all the speeches between songs, which is great. I described it a few pages back. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trin9498 Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Just watched Don’t Cry and S. Hoon. The band was so good back then. The energy they put off was off the chart. I was a freshman in HS in ‘91 so I remember how popular they really were - do you think it was all of Axl’s diva behavior that truly broke the band? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Looking at the setlist for Ritz '91, it was incredibly ballsy for the band back then. Of the 18 songs played, only 5 were from AFD and 1 from GNR Lies. Besides those 6 and LALD, the rest of the songs would be unknown to almost everyone in the audience. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoForJMark Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Has it been mentioned here yet? Izzy using a wah pedal during Estranged live in Ritz around the 6:50 mark and toward the end? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant000 Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 (edited) Could Slash’s tone sound any f’n cooler than the stuff around 3:10 in LALD @ Ritz after the song is over… when he’s vibing… Edited November 11, 2022 by Ant000 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chester 524 Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 (edited) just an FYI, I just bought the super deluxe set off Amazon for $202. much cheaper than the GNR site which was going to be 285 dollars (price includes shipping). just a heads up for those who are finally ordering this today.

Spike Killer Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Listening to Las Vegas. Waiting to watch Ritz once I get the box set. It sounds really really good. I'm not saying that Live Era was bad (making multiple recordings from multiple era's sounds like a cohesive package). This presentation sounds fantastic. Everything flows together. It's great.

Okay, maybe lose the c word but it’s perfect for Axl’s current limitations and I’m pretty sure Slash would love it too.

He also started turning ock fans off.. He just changed.. You could tell he was a different person in this Ritz 91 show than he was in earlier years.. Ego was in full effect.. Even the look. In that Don't Cry video, everyone else in the band looks cool and normal with their jeans and tshirts or whatever.. Then you see Axl with that huge ass goofy white jacket and white biker shorts.. 87/88 Axl would have kicked his ass lol.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Civil War and KOHD were both released in 1990 and got plenty of radio play. KOHD was also on the Ritz 88 show which I think was MTVs most played show ever so those songs were known as well. Any big fans who had bootlegs back in the day may have known Don't Cry.. I know I had all that shit.. These were special small shows that fans probably felt very pledged to get in.. They really could have gotten away with playing anything they wanted. Does anyone remember what it took to get in? They were last minute announcements right? Did they just anounce them on the local rock station that day and first come forst serve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People can dump on Axl if they want, but of the three OG players he was the only one sober during the UYI-era. Slash and Duff could barely string a coherent sentence together. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They weren't showing up to play 5 hours late if he showed up at all and they weren't starting riots and throwing hissy fits all the time.. He may not have been on heroin but I doubt he was sober.. I would put money that still drank and partied just not as much as the other guys. I mean he still drinks now. Also, Izzy did get sober and couldn't deal with Axl's ego either..

TBH - a combination of drugs within the band and mental illness with Axl was to blame IMO. Wasn’t it the case where it was reported he was bipolar - which combined with ego and drugs….carnage!
