We love Axl Rose Posted June 1, 2023 Author Share Posted June 1, 2023 On 5/31/2022 at 2:33 PM, We love Axl Rose said: May 31, 1986 - Gazzarri's, West Hollywood, CA Notes: Under the name Fargin Bastydges. Axl: I hope you know where you are. I hope you know what you need. “Welcome to the jungle”, baby. Duff’s brother Matt and his two friends joined them on stage with their horns. Matt played the trombone for an extra-long version of the “Move to the City” with a jam at the end. Setlist: 1. Out Ta Get Me 2. Welcome to the Jungle 3. Think About You 4. Move to the City 5. Rocket Queen 6. Nightrain 7. My Michelle 8. Jumpin' Jack Flash (The Rolling Stones cover) 9. Don't Cry 10. You're Crazy 11. Paradise City 12. Mama Kin (Aerosmith cover) “Reckless road” by Marc Canter May 31, 1988 - Spokane, WA May 31, 2006 - Budapest, Hungary Notes: The band hit the stage after nearly a 3 hour delay, apparently due to Axl being late. About 800 hundred nervous people went home from the show before the band started, after they asked their money back from the checkouts. Axl apologized for the delay. There was no Axl rant as usual, just a very few sentences between songs. He didn't even introduce the band as usual, just Ron (as Mr. Bumblefoot) before his 1st solo, and maybe Tommy. Lots of solos, maybe due to Axl's backache. During 'Better,' Robin Finck smashed his guitar and goes off stage, when he got angry on something. Then Axl followed him to bring him back on stage. After the Jam Axl said they like to entertain themselves. Again, Ron jams on 'Don't Cry' during his guitar solo before 'Paradise City.' May 31, 2010 - Bergen, Norway Notes: The first show of this leg of the tour that will take the band across Scandinavia and into Russia. May 31, 2012 - O2 Arena, London, UK (1st Night) Notes: The UK leg ends with two London shows. Izzy Stradlin joins the band for the shows. 14 Years first time played live since 1991.

The first full GN'R show in USA with Duff on bass since 1993. * The first photo is from this show, the others are from the 1st show. May 31, 2019 - Tenderness, the third solo album by Duff McKagan is released. The album was inspired by McKagan's global travels on Guns N' Roses' Not in This Lifetime... Tour and is considered a musical follow up to his 2015 How to be a Man book. The recording of the album began in-between McKagan's tour with Guns N' Roses and featured collaborations with Shooter Jennings, The Waters and The Suicide Horn Section, amongst others.

I don't think so my screenshot isn't the greatest but looking at the post it came from the guitar with the zebra pickups appeared in 1993 I think or late 1992?

Axl mentions how he feels great and recounts a story of him smoking opium on an airplane with Sebastian Bach. Axl says that without the music of Nine Inch Nails he would have overdosed on drugs and died. 'Knockin' On Heavens Door' is dedicated to a Cleveland fan who died and was buried with a GN'R t-shirt on. Axl asks the people in the front row how much they paid for their tickets, to which they reply $125. Then he goes off on ticket scalpers. * Photo from 1st (June 4) or 2nd (June 5) show June 5, 1993 - Nijmegen, Netherlands (1st Night) Notes: A rather quick show, only about 1 hour & 40 minutes. 'Double Talkin' Jive' is dedicated to Izzy. The band jams on 'Train Kept A Rollin'' during 'Double Talkin' Jive.' The band brings out friend Tim Doyle to play bongos on 'Used To Love Her.' Axl sings part of the lyrics to 'Imagine' during 'Patience.'

They joined the band on this date. Tracii Guns & Rob Gardener are in the flyer for this show! June 6, 1988 - Sacramento, CA June 6, 1992: Guns N' Roses' "November Rain" video debuts on MTV. The 9-minute epic is the most expensive video ever made to this point, costing $1.5 million. Much of the budget was spent constructing a church in the desert in New Mexico, so Slash could solo in front of it. In July 2018, it became the first video made before YouTube's founding to surpass one billion views, as well as the first music video from the 1990s to hit over a billion YouTube streams. June 6, 1992 - Paris, France Notes: Soundcheck was held the day before. This was broadcast on worldwide TV as Pay-Per-View and also on FM radio stations. Axl goes off on Warren Beatty because he hooked up with Stephanie Seymour. Special guest performances by Lenny Kravitz, Steven Tyler & Joe Perry. Jeff Beck was also scheduled to play Locomotive but he canceled out because of problems with his hearing.

Rare performance of 'Back Off Bitch,' which Axl says was written in 1981. Axl mentions how when they toured through Toronto in the past with The Cult & Iron Maiden that AFD was banned so the audience didn't know most of the songs. Axl says that Phil Lynott from Thin Lizzy took the place of hid father when he was little. Then he says how Slash had to pay the band $1000 the other night to open the show with 'Nightrain.' Before 'Estranged,' Axl lets the audience know that the last train leaving the venue is in 5 minutes! Photos are from 1st or 2nd show.

LA Guns filled in for GN'R because Axl had blown out his throat. June 8, 1991 - Toronto, Canada (2nd Night) Notes:Axl says how tonight's crowd is much better than last night's (6.7). Axl mentions that 4 years ago he wanted the band to play 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door' because he wanted his generation to hear it. A rare performance of 'Welcome To The Jungle' as the last song. The tour was still early at this point and GN'R was still experimenting with their set. At some point during the show, a fan jumps on stage and charges toward Axl. Security holds down the fan and Axl stomps on him twice before he is dragged off. * Photos from 1st or 2nd Night June 8, 1993 - Copenhagen, Denmark Setlist: It's So Easy, Mr. Brownstone, Live And Let Die, Yesterdays, Welcome To The Jungle, Attitude, Double Talkin' Jive, You Ain't The First, You're Crazy, Used To Love Her, Patience [w/ Imagine], Knockin' On Heaven's Door, November Rain, Dead Horse, Drum Solo, You Could Be Mine, Guitar Solo, Godfather Theme, Sweet Child O' Mine, Paradise City.

These approximate dates are reported in Danny Sugerman's book Appetite For Destruction: The Days Of Guns N' Roses. June 9, 1988 - Irvine, Ca (2nd Night) set: Marseilles, It's So Easy Notes: GN'R, minus Axl and with Duff on vocals, play these 2 songs to make it up to the fans for cancelling out on the rest of the tour with Iron Maiden. 'Marseilles' was originally done by Angel City. Most people mistaken 'Marseilles' for the Kiss song 'Nothin To Lose.' During one of the Irvine shows, Slash, Steven & LA Guns join Maiden on stage to sing on the chorus of "Heaven Can Wait." *Photo from 1st Night June 9, 2006 - Dublin, Ireland Notes: The band were scheduled, and arrived, onstage at 9pm sharp. While Robin played the opening riff to 'Welcome To The Jungle' Axl surveyed the crowd and remarked that it was 'the rock show' before smiling and nodding. Axl looked in extremely good form throughout, and before 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door, he picked up an Irish flag and wore it around his neck while singing the song. He also called the crowd 'crazy Irish motherfuckers' and started saying he was melting in the sun and wasnt used to performing in the sunlight. Axl also messed up the words at the start of 'The Blues.' The majority of the crowd didnt seem to know any new material, and stayed quiet while the newer songs where being played. The crowd sang along to both Robin & Richard's 'Beautiful' solo and Ron's 'Don't Cry' solo. Sebastian Bach was brought on for a performance of 'My Michelle' and remarked that Dublin was a town that certainly knew how to drink. The band performed until 11pm, and had to cut their set short, saying that they hadn't time to perform a song (most likely I.R.S.) before performing 'Paradise City.' At the end of the evening Axl said they told him he wasnt allowed to do this, but that Ireland had been so great to him he would, and brought out the band for a bow. June 9, 2016 - Manchester, UK (AC/DC) June 9, 2018 -Donington, UK Notes: The band headlines the Saturday night at the Download Festival held at the Donington Park Circuit outside of Derby, UK.

Axl announces that it is a "very sad day" because Poison broke up that day. Rare performance of Dead Horse during the summer '91 leg of the UYI tour. Axl leads the crowd in a "Get In The Ring" chant that is recorded and used on the song. He also says that they finished recording the song the night before in Toronto. June 10, 1993 - Oslo, Norway Notes: Axl dedicates 'Double Talkin' Jive' to Izzy, something he did a lot after Izzy left the European tour in '93. The band jams on 'Train Kept A Rollin'' during 'Double Talkin' Jive.' Axl introduces Matt as being is his 'fatherland,' referring to Matt's Norwegian ancestry.

One of the few shows when 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door' was not played. During the show, when Duff is shaking hands with the crowd, an audience member cuts Duff's hand with a razor blade.

Popular Post We love Axl Rose Posted June 20, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 20, 2023 I decided to stop with making new posts in this thread, I don't know if permanently, but I think I have fulfilled my goal. It's been hard doing this for over a year, but I'm happy, and now I need a long break. I hope this thread has been useful and entertaining, a lot of information and many, many photos have been collected. Special thanks to @Ratam, @kingcanyon, @wendirosez, and to everyone else who followed and enjoyed this thread. Bye! 2 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucketEgg Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 (edited) it's wonderful that something like this thread is free for us to see! the effort put into this thread would be good enough as official merch, as something like a calendar-photo-album-book fusion.

Old_school_gnr_fan Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 August 24, 1988: Guns N' Roses open for Aerosmith at the Great Woods Center For The Performing Arts (now known as the Xfinity Center) in Mansfield, Massachusetts. It is the first of three consecutive nights at the venue. Appetite For Destruction is the #1 album in the country, and "Sweet Child O' Mine" has just entered the top 10 on the Billboard singles chart. The band plays "Patience" during their set, which would get its official studio release on the GN'R Lies EP on November 30, 1988. Following the run of shows at that venue, Guns N' Roses are permanently banned from ever playing there again. To my knowledge, the details of the ban were not made public. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
