I miss Velvet Revolver. Blended the best of the 80s hair metal sound with one of our greatest 90s vocalists. It was a true super group! RIP Scott. You never gave less than your best on stage.
Velvet Revolver sounded more like the wild and aggressive Guns of the 80s than the Guns of today. Fucking awesome badass band!! Duff's bass is fucking great
Well youth has something to do with it. But yea Scott W was an outstanding front man despite all of his demons.
@@slashtriohis demons is what made him.
In 2005, Weiland was 38 and in his prime.
@@nahiyanalamgir7056 yea 38 is still pretty young for physical activity and still being a good vocalist and performer.
@@slashtrio That's my point.
I saw them twice. They were a supergroup of the bands that I grew up with in the 90s.
I love them playing easy and brownstone.
RIP Scott.
When the original GNR went their own way it left such a gap for me in hard rock. Velvet Revolver filled that gap. Thanks and RIP Scott
scott is much better than Axl...cant stand him
I can't believe how long ago Velvet Revolver came out, it seems like yesterday I was buying their first CD.
So glad I got to see them live. Scott Weiland was an amazing frontman. RIP
I never got to see Velvet Revolver...seen Scott with STP several times. Best frontman of the 90s. RIP #scottweiland
That’s literally word for word what I was thinking while watching this. The man ruled the stage. This is just an unbelievable performance. Never saw him with VR but I was lucky enough to see him with STP from about 20 ft away, dead center on the floor of 2,300 seat venue (the Warfield) in San Francisco in 2010, a few years before he passed. My brother flew up from Texas because the show he’d planned to see there got canceled after Scott went back into rehab. Wasn’t sure which Scott we’d get since he’d just gotten back out, but we got the sober one. They were awesome, and Scott just fucking killed it the whole show. What. A. Performer. Still one of the best shows I’ve seen. And the Giants had won the World Series a few miles away about an hour before the show started, so the crowd was well lubricated and in an exceptionally good mood.
"Absolutely extraordinary". RIP Scott Weiland.
Mediocre talent. Addict. Is what it is.
What a frontman Scott was. Saw him 3 times, STP once and VR twice. Always on 11, thats one more than 10.
Morning routine:
Cup of coffee - a smoke - and this video with ear buds on .
I’m freakin ready for anything now .
What a way to kickstart your day ♥️🎵🙏
Yup
@@shawnc318 yup yup
By far the best live version of this amazing song. RIP Scott!
Seriously? This is sloppy as hell.
I didn't say it's perfect, just the best live version.@@SoloDallasII
I'm hearing his death was not a od from his his wife
Been awhile, I forgot just how freaking incredible this band was! Probably the best of all the superbands, they were just such a powerful group that wrote classic songs! Amazing band!
Their first album was sooooooo killer.. Kinda like Beautiful Creatures but with more fame.. Second album was great too
First of all, They’re not a Super Band, they’re a bunch of semi washed up rockers.
They’re not playing anything that would get a mosh pit going, their not in touch with the strong rhythm’s, bass , riffs, etc. that get young crowds going today.
Young concert crowds don’t want a guitar solo, they want a cool rhythmic riff that builds into a frenzy
@@soupystevesguitarartsextra3697 what the actual fuck are you talking about? 🤣🤣🤣
@@anandmorris Well you can’t please everyone . What’s your definition of a “Super Group “??
To me it’s not a bunch of Semi washed up musicians that got booted out of the actual good band.
They are all trying to hard, and it looks like their trying to prove something, and the actual passion and feeling just isn’t there. You might not see it , but I do.
@soupystevesguitarartsextra3697 they didn't get booted out, they left.
Whatever it is you are "seeing", its is a complete fabrication of your mind. If you had been an ultra successful musician yourself, had experience in such popular bands, i would be able to take your opinion a little more seriously. I think it could be you are slightly washed up yourself, having never even made it in the first place.
Had the pleasure of seeing AFI at Not so acoustic Christmas show. I'm 62 and my Son turned me on to this great band. I myself love listening to different styles of music with great hooks.
Never be forgotten!!!
I have watched this so many times....I don't think you realize he damned good this really is....Oh man. ❤
That group of musicians with Scott, one of the greatest of all time, were truly spectacular.
Def GOAT ❤
They were the REAL DEAL STRAIGHT FOR YOUR THROAT ROCK AND ROLL THE BRUTAL WAY .SCOTT WE MISS YA.
I was 14, sick off from school with chickenpox playing doom 3, got too scared and turned on the tv and I saw this playing. Changed my life forever!
What a great band for the short time they were together!
The band is so awesome and the crowd is so dead...
Wells it's a music festival....
Thats happens when you play live without the people normally listen to your band...
Scott was ok, but a little too gay for me, reminds me of Mick Jagger, didn’t like him either
@@dedfishermen985yep
Are british, not americans.
@@SuperRizzomanor they’re just exhausted from all the other bands
I remember watching this on the television that day. Velvet Revolver and Pink Floyd were the best bands at this gig.
I love this live on Jules Holland and I'm still watching it in 2024. Layne what a voice! When he starts singing wow! I scream I!
Why did it take almost 20 years for them to post this masterpiece???
We haven’t figured out why the chicken cross the road yet how can we deal with other problems?
What about what came first between the chicken and the egg? Chickens have got a lot to answer to!
Every time i see scott, layne, shannon, kurt, amy, jeff, etc... i get so fucking sad. I hope, wherever they are, theyre able to see just how appreciated they are. If i could say anything to them, I'd just say "thank you for all you gave us. Sorry you had to go so soon. Although your physical body might be gone, the music you created will never die. Long live rock n roll."
Linda e verdadeiro sua mensagem,também diria desculpe por ir cedo e um muito obrigado a todos eles!!!
there is only heaven and hell friend.... it simply must be that way. actions have consequences.
Remember watching this event live with my mate Cowburn,history in the making.
Such a great band! Great performance, Scott at the end sounded like Jim Morrison for a second. This band was definitely a definition of rock and roll 🤘🏼
They had a great set that day. I saw them live once and it was a great show. Scott, you are still missed and still with you were with us.
I’m a huge Velvet Revolver, STP and G n R fan but that intro was totally Jane’s Addiction
So many awesome groups mentioned in that sentence it’s overwhelming to read lol
Yea nice me too👍
Came here for this comment
I also came here for this comment. Nice ear! Duff is definitely teasing Mountain Song in this intro. Sick bass line!
Good call 👌
RIP Scott. Hella performance. Slash killed it too
A lot of guitarists are technically brilliant and can shred crazy but Slash has soul, he tells a story with solo's that make you feel it
Did he tho?
Huge slash fan
.. it sounded like he was losing at guitar hero
Fuckin A mann. I was saying the same thing.
modern slash sucks man
Real music, real performance and I've loved their set since Live 8 !!
Might be my favorite RocknRoll song......ever!
Mine too
SW one of the best true frontmen,performer,entertainer ever.. top 5
most boring audience I've ever seen, they were killing it, and nobody is even moving!!
that crowd is terrible
It's in the uk?
Really they sleepy?
that's fucking UK bro, their crowd is not like Brazil or US
Well, they deserve Oasis more than this @@rafaeljuliao2501
Scott Weiland the Best rock n' Roll Always
Best Slither performance ever recorded. Thank you for posting on such quality! It's a sin that it's not on Spotify
Best Live Performance Ever 😈
Letterman performance was tight.
The best live version of Slither ❤
EDIT: I love the ending between matt sorum and slash
Check out their show in Houston Way better slither version.
@@theGovernmentHatesYou Hey my Bro, thanks for The information
Nope. Slash playing here is iust terrible
80-90s were the best real music era..🙏🙏🙏
Many times I've already looked along the open road, many times I've lied - many times I've literally listened, many times I've thought how much there is to know, but gentle is the man who knows what he's been missing, but many dreams come true, and some have silver linings but I live for my dream and often a pocket of gold
Over the hills…
Que tristeza ver esta banda tan increíble y que la gente no pueda sentir emoción y disfrutar ese tremendo espectáculo, amo esta canción, definitivamente no valoraron a este gran artista 🥲
Seeing this gig on TV changed my life. I went and bought the CD from ASDA the same week.
I can't remember who won the pair of tickets me or my brother, but we were there. Velvet Revolver were a quality band. Such an awesome day with Pink Floyd as the finale and apparently Syd Barrett was standing by the side of the stage. God Bless Scott Weiland legendary vocalist. Standing amidst egends!
One of the best rock bands of the past 20 years.
SW best singer of the 90s
Layne Staley might have something to say about that……Weiland was bad ass though.
90s had awesome singers: Staley, Cornell, Weiland, Vedder...
If he was the best then the 90s truly did suck!
He’s definitely a product of the 90s sound. Definitely some cool vocalist coming out of that time. SW was cool, definitely had his own vibe despite sounding somewhat similar to vedder and Staley
@@kcb5336 sorry, Madonna is actually the best singer my bad
Man. What a performance by this band. I think this is the best live performance by Velvet Revolver. Scott is the best frontman. RIP man.
Check out them out doing brownstone 😮
One of my TOP 2 favorite VR songs!
Scott was my 2nd favorite RN'R frontman/singer and I miss him every day. I couldn't listen to STP or VR songs for 2 years after his death as I would get too upset and bawl my eyes out each time. R.I.P to one of the greatest rock frontmen and voices of all-time...
Saw them 3 times in 2005. Amazing band. When i heard 3 members of gnr were forming a supergroup with scott on vocals i was so excited. They played tiny venue in LA. Thought it would just be like an experiment that wouldnt surface. Then they announced they were coming to uk in 2005. I saw their first show at Birmingham NIA. Crazy gig. Amazing show. Slash played iron man at the end knowing he was in the land of sabbath. I was lucky enough to be at live 8 and saw them again. Also saw them at download a month before with sabbath headlining. Last time was 2007 download festival. Briiliant band. Brilliant songs. Sadly missed. I feel the rock era is dying. Some may say its gone already.
Amo questo pezzo, questa band.....
Thanks for this, I forgot just how good they were
I can’t believe I never went to see them live 😢
One band I wish I was able to see live man. This was more GNR than Axl’s incarnation of the band at the time
Saw ‘em twice. Two best rock shows I went to. RIP Scott😢
I wonder if people have a clue on how unbelievable this was, fucking true definition of a rock band.
Killer show !! 🔥
Everything is so on point it's scary
Scott was amazing at this moment. He was clean and ripping into this song, attacking the notes.
Love this extended version of Slither. ❤
Macenroe had an awesome view! You can tells the band was absolutely hot at that time. Total rock n' roll, and they all looked great too!
Scott Weiland is one of the best frontman!
In my opinion he was the best
I absolutely love this song. If someone asks you “what’s rock and roll”. Refer to this song.
This is KICK ASS ROCK N ROLL!
Slash is one😊 talented mudda forkin money making machine. It's now 2024 and put his life and heart into his music man. Smart ole dog, i.d love to see what he has done for himself,! Property - housing for himself,! Cars! Muscle cars ect! !
He's one hard working gifted musician🎉🎉proud of you Slash keep up being a showman.
Lost way too soon.....one of the best front man ever to do it. Fuckin drugs😢
Scott sounds liked Perry Farrell (0:52) and Jim Morrison (5:28). Anyone else hear it? A very great performance from Scott. During this time, some of his vocals could be a bit flat, but he pushed his voice, and pushed other stuff, so it's amazing he could sing at all.
crowd are dead
😂 Nothing going on in that crowd. Could probably host a tea party!!!
Not if Paris Hilton is at your show!
It’s a charity concert…
Because this is American Rock n Roll. They don't know what to think of it in England XD
Maybe if it sounded more like The Clash, they'd be jumping around lol. At least a couple people out there were enjoying themselves.
@@rainshadowband3161I don’t think they were very big in the Uk
music still and always the greatest communicator understanding control of large crowds of people is the second step tod infinity time is quickening it's a thing .
A musical marriage like this happens only once in a lifetime. Its like the spirits move the pieces like pawns for their own amuzement. Not saying Scott wasnt responsible for his own demise but it seems we are all at the mercy of things unseen. While i love the result. They were defi etly a super group, Scott barely looked human. Rest in Peace Scott
This was incredible
What a shame this band ended so soon. Arguably the best supergroup of all time.
This and the traveling wilburies were the best supergroups of all time
@@justenbenally522Audioslave?
@@killerkite333 Audioslave was a supergroup?
@@justenbenally522 RATM + Chris Cornell. One of the best supergroup of 00s.
@@killerkite333
Oh shit I didn't know that. I knew that Cornell was in "Temple of the Dog" with Eddie Vedder, but that's it. "Mad Season" with Layne Staley was a supergroup too, I think.
This song is a collector's item 😎😎😎
Seen these three times they were absolutely incredible
John McEnroe was the cherry on top for this 🤙🤘
Rip Scott…Velvet was awesome!
Why is the crowd so dead? Good grief
🎉🎉🎉
Probably put off by the douche bag singer same as me. No surprise when he died young.
It's England.
They're not allowed to show joy because it's an emotion..
Lol
😉
Because hungry 😢 stomach empty
Right?! Wtf!!!! Not here in nh! We let m know we love m! Rip Scott
We must neeeeeeds time machine!!!!!!!!;;
Best Band Ever!
Thats rock and roll right there yall...badass
Scott channeling his inner Perry Farrell during the intro. And then you can clearly see him battle the monkey on multiple close up exhales! Brilliance in the downfall. 😞
Scott weiland, more than anyother, knew to be a legendary rockstar
This guy with the hat always delivers..
The sound quality is amazing here...its funny this popped on my feed, i was just practicing this on guitar this morning
Ya see, kids? That’s how you rock’n’roll…
Is the audience dead?!? Great lead singer and this song rips your head off and they’re just standing there! Things have definitely changed since the 90’s. Young heads missed out!
My favorite one from velvet revolver great great great fan and slashhh is my hero. Scott Weiland 😢always in my life time never forget you till ..
Always loved his megaphone
Never mattered how big the crowd was they always brought that same energy and that is what makes them great to me!
Duff is so underrated it’s insane
Matt Sorum is amazing. wish he was playing with the Guns n Roses
Great version especially the intro....🎉
One of my favorite rock songs along with She builds quick machines.
I love this song so much.
Such a killer intro and riff God damn man.
Too bad slash duff and Matt couldn't have played with Axl during this period, fit clean and sober and badass.
I think Slash and Duff are still fit and clean. Since 2016 with Axl and no problems and they look fit.
@habu551 yeah but they're old men now.
Fuckin fantastic tune. Saw these at the Hammersmith Appollo, free tickets from planet rock AND to the after party. FUCKIN MENTAAAAL. Pissed for nothing AND met with the band. Unfortunately not Scott though, he was ill apparently! RIP Scott Wieland
Scott was very underrated.
the definition of a supergroup
Don’t get much Better than that.
Xoxo OUTSTANDING.
Queens of the old age
i was at LIve 8 in Philadelphia, I remember watching this on the big screen!!!
On a good night,The best Hard Rock band you could ever see.
frikken incredible!
Why haven't I seen this live version of Slither? VR is at their absolute peak in this vid and Scott nails the vocals from 1st note to last! You can't deny "Jungle" as a rock anthem of all time securing a place in history for Guns & Roses, but I still think Scott was a much better fit for this band than Axel. This is an example of rock & roll at it's finest! So glad I found and thanx for posting :)
