I respectfully hate you. Hahaha. I was 12 when they went to Argentina during the UYI tour (two times in 7 months 🤦🏻♂️) and my parents didn't let me go. There was really bad press about them as we all know, but there, a 15 yo girl shot herself because her father saw her outside the hotel when she was supposed to be at school and forbid her to attend the concert (then when he found her he shot himself too). I had to wait 23 years to see them in Brazil, but of course, it was not the same. Plus, the second concert in Argentina was the last one of that era... Now, at 43, I recently told my parents I love them, but I will never forgive them for that 🤣
@@marcinstepniak1215 It wasn't allowed then. And we only had cell phones without a camera. And not many people had a FILM camera with them. I myself saw them several times in several different countries in Europe.
Nooooo, wasn't no cellphones or smartphones then. If you were to get a photo, IF! You would use mini picture camera. And would get the photos made the following day. Meeting bands then, was easier then. But we didn't have the technology. (How ironic) That was the era of tour buses in front of a hotel. So you knew who was in town. Now!? (pff)Bands jet into town, take airport van to hotel, from hotel, van to venue. (You don't know where they're staying) Tour buses are parked at venue. If we had iPhone technology in 80's and 90's. there would be so much lawsuit debauchery available. @@marcinstepniak1215
I envy you and saw them two times during the UYI era. Once with Izzy in summer 1991 and once with Gilby during this same tour here with Metallica in summer 1992. Somebody has to convince Axl to start releasing more of the pro shot video footage.
Its so awesome to see him talking about his abuse. I too was abused as a child. Its not easy for men to talk about it. Let alone Axl Rose. Glad i got to see them live a few weeks ago
I saw this band on the 'Appetite for Destruction' tour, when they opened for Aerosmith. One of the best concerts. EVER. I didn't bother seeing them on 'Use Your Illusion' (loved the albums), because they didn't need that production! A stage, some lights, the music, give Slash his guitar solo/blues jam, and Axl is pretty much a human special effect all on his own. I can see why the rest of the band had split, back then. It was so much better when the videos told the story, and the band would just play the songs when they went on tour.
@@jonowirion yeah but they kept selling on the Skin N’ Bones tour when they got rid of the whole big production. So sales don’t really mean they wanted to see that horn section and background singers etc. They came to see the band.
@@gabrielbrouwerThis fucking Axl is more creative then Speilberg! Nah, seriously he became any micro managing ego maniac. Should’ve got his ass on some Ritalin!😊
Not anymore. Monroe opened for them in Finland, but Axl didn’t even want to meet him. Guess he was scared, cause Michael is still in such a good shape. 😅
Love how he talks about how it doesn’t take him long to prepare for the show and yet back in those days he literally held up the band, crew and fans for HOURS waiting for him to get his ass up on stage. 🙄
Not trying to get into a whole debate over Axl’s actions during that time period, but he should have never been on that type of grinding tour with what he was going through and unraveling in his personal life at the time. It’s funny too cause if he acted like that now in this decade he’d probably be applauded for putting his mental health first.
People are so fast to judge a person, axl himself IN THIS INTERVIEW said that he was dealing with a lot of mental health issues, a person with those problems does not have to carry so much responsibility, that happened due to the unconsciousness of the management and the band as such, for not caring about the singer.
@@marinadiamondz exactly. Why would anyone bother to consider the mental health of the road crew who are getting pushed HOURS behind schedule and still expected to pack up and transport tons and tons of equipment in time to set up for the next show, driving through the night fatigued and risking their lives only to be held up again in the next city and the next and the next.. screw those guys huh? And screw the paying fans who probably missed the last train home and ended up stranded. I was at the Australian show where we all sat and baked in the sun for two hours waiting for him to get his shit together. It’s all about Axl. Hey if you’re not up to touring then don’t tour. Quit jerking the crew and the fans around.
@@panelvanhalen9717 So the entire road crew were dealing with mental health issues and childhood traumas (from sexual abuse as kids etc) back then? Is that what youre trying to say when you compare Axl to them? what an absolutely retarded comparison
@@axldemocracyAxl said that tour was booked without even talking to him. So he had to fulfill the obligation before he had his mental health in check.
I can relate to the bit about trying to cope with work as well as doing mental health therapy, as I was ordered to by my then employer. It was just too hard to cope with trying to do quality work AND also the cope with the demands such therapy imposed,plus extra hours of daily commuting to do it, on top of hours of my normal work commute I did. So I had to drop one. As I needed the money, I dropped the therapy, which did nothing, anyway. I then lost my job because I wasn't like the rest of the workplace clones there and it bothered them to have any real 'diversity' working among them.And I had stopped the therapy 'help' ???My total life unravelling, divorce then poverty followed. But, ironically, despite all this stress and real hardships, my mental health improved incredibly. I ascribe this to being away from the toxicity of conformist mainstream workplaces and how damaging this is to the lives of anybody who is in any way different, though harmless and often very good at what they do and has much of value to offer society,which is wasted. Ah well, it's society's loss, not mine..'I adapt, therefore I am' is my life motto. Phoenix rises from the ashes of its destruction. Just keep working harder,faster, more... Pay more taxes. You'll be paying OUR government pensions for the rest of YOUR lives, since you found our workplace presence too hard to tolerate, because some of us are different from you. Enjoy slaving away, like we try to make the most of the social stigma enforced Dole Bludgeing. AKA Discrimmination, denial of Equal Opportunity, or some such PC type bullshit. I'm over it and couldn't give a shit about such workplace complaints as sexual harassment etc any more now. I endured far worse workplace abuse and survived. It's really hard for me to give a shit now about such complaints. Such experiences that don't kill you toughen you up mentally. So who needs to waste time and money, energy etc on useless, worthless therapy? When the root of the problem is not within YOU, but outside you. The way society and workplaces etc now are. They create mental health issues, often deliberately, where there previously were none.There are political correctness driven explanations for this, too complex to detail here.Relating to money, greed, corruption etc.
Great decade. I still think the 90s ended early, right around 1995. Kurt Cobain shot himself and mainstream fans buzzed off all of their hair, put on floppy pants and started listening to Limp Bizkit. Lame.
I love Nirvana but also Guns and obviously guns first when my dad bought me AFD cassette while on a boat to Ireland when about 8/9 and I chose it simply coz the album cover looked cool and I couldn't believe it when I heard it before it was MJ, NKOTB, Jason Donavon 😂 then heard AFD guitar music forever more. It's wrong when people say Nirvana got rid of Guns,they got rid of alot of silly hairbands but so did guns who weren't a hair band, Guns was massive at the same time as Nirvana. Guns destroyed themselves!!
That fitness gizmo sounds so cool. When you think of how much time, energy, money is wasted on gym, not only the exerting time but also travel to gym,endless showering, changing gym gear then out into other clothes and general stuffing around with gym and fitness. Oh, and we haven't even touched on the high cost of doing gym, not to mention all the pollution and planet harm it causes, as those gym machines like treadmills require fossil burning fuels that generate electricity to run them. So, for those 'Save The Planet' freaks who are also such gym fanatics, there a flaw in your rationality. You really do need to figure out where this obvious logical discrepancy is. In other words, put your money where your mouth is. You don't save the planet by doing daily electricity powered gym work outs. Maybe if you only used your own bodily energy to get fit. But, why on earth would you waste your rnergy doing such worthless, unproductive fitness? When you could get even fitter, slimmer still, by doing real, PRODUCTIVE hard physical work? To make money, produce something of real value for others? And also get fit yourself. Unless your career involves being a top athlete, gym is a total waste. And, even top athletes train without any gym.They just get moving, have the necessary self discipline to do whatever they must t o get into peak performance condition anywhere, even with no gear to train on.
Can remember seeing them on Use Your Illusion Tour and all the rock n roll of the band were gone. Matt Sorum's stupid overproduced drums, the band lost all the swagger they had. Back in 87 and 88 the band you saw would never of dreamt of having backing singers and string arrangements. Guns n Roses were the most important band of the moment, but the moment was gone. Axl Rose sprinting around in spandex had nothing to do with rock n roll.
He still looks cool here but he aged so quickly, probably from all the stress he causes himself driving himself mad!.... Has the mystery of wearing cycling shorts ever become known?? Even as a kid I couldn't understand why?
One of my theories is Axl was hugely influenced by The Stones tour in 1981. If you watch the concert film “Let’s Spend The Night Together” and check out Jagger’s wardrobe and that stage set up - it has a lot of similarities to what Axl was going for; Jagger in designer outfits and spandex pants running across these huge stages with ramps. Axl has said in interviews too he got a chance to observe Jagger on the Steel Wheels tour and see how he conducted his onstage and offstage business. Long rambling theory but yeah Stones ‘81! 😝
Probably cooler under those hot lights and all that physical workout he was getting running all over that stage. The leather pant look was gone after that.
It's All EGO! Look How Cool, Calm And Collective He Was In The Beginning - Just Like Eddie Vedder.. The Ego Grows And Then You Preach And Think Everyone Is At Your Feet
Only a massive narcissist could do 4-5 hours of therapy a day , and rich and a therapist milking them for every dime. I would say poor kid if he wasn’t such an a-hole causing riots.
I saw them 7 times on the Use your Illusion Tour. SEVEN!! At their peak. They were truly incredible and they were everywhere.
