BrianD Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 I never saw the old band live, as I'm only 24 years old... but I'm going to say the best show I saw was the first Hammerstein show(May 12th 2006)... Axl didn't disappoint. He came out, he fucking brought it for a great set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graeme Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 (edited) Outta the two shows i saw, Glasgow was the best, I also believe it to be the best crowd GnR has played to since the old days. And just because it's a gig with the new guys does NOT mean for one minute that it couldn't be the best GnR show ever. I think the Ritz 88 is overrated as the "Perfect" GnR show, I love it all the same, i just think that Axl fucked up Rocket Queen by not singing half the words, and Paradise City really did not sound like the powerful blast of energy it usually does, plus Slash's guitar was slightly outta tune during the SCOM intro.... I know, I'm being a nit-picking bastard aren't i? but just pointing out the imperfections if you will allow me! The attitude was there allright, buckets of it, just sometimes the music lacked a little consistency. Glasgow was the best crowd i've ever seen and the band fed off that, therefore making it one hell of a show. All I've gotta say.

I can't use the 3.4GB version because I don't have a DVD burner. I need all 11 as seperate .avi or .mpg to burn them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ragnarok Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 I´m not tooo sure actually.I don´t know why everbody finds ritz 88 so great. OK i know why, the band has it´s afd-lineup, the still have the cool-as-fuck street attitude, it´s all how it schould be. But then again , the setlist isn´t that great, and axl missing at the end of rocket queen really destroys a nearly perfect performance.I sometimes get the feeling although Rotz 88 was great, it was more of a weaker show of that decade, hell don´t cry wasn´t even played (very sad). I thin a full pro shot of the marquee 87 for example would kick ritz´ass.For me two other great shows are chicago 92 and Argentinia 93.Although the 92 gunners shows seemed a bit too "perfect" for me, they really were great, and chicago for sure has the best rants i ever heard, and it has coma. Enough said.Argenitinia 93 is just cool because of the acoustic section and the general mood. It all seems like much fun, and the whole show is less bloated and more kind of laid back than the year before.BTW: In the uncensored Garaffa version of Argentinia you can see Axl ans Slash hugging after the show, they really looked like two good friend who are happy to be on stage together. Makes you wonder what happened.....Further BTW: Novarock was agreat concert too, but i don´t want to include it in the above, cause i was there myself. and you can´t compare a show you were at with other shows.

Caught in the Rye Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Chicago '92 for me. Damn what a set list. Coma, Estranged, Shannon Hoon on Don't Cry. I love every minute of it. Has some nice rants too, along with a tit cam at the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Either 2/2/88 @ The Ritz, 6/6/92 in Paris or 6/11/06 @ Donington. Donington truly showed the band wouldn't give up just because of a bad crowd. 8/3/91 in Inglewood, CA had the best setlist by far though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
