Here Today... Gone To Hell!

To me it's pretty obvious, these shows are for a DVD.  There's no other explanation.  It looks like Axl will take the best performances of particular songs and since it's the same venue, the DVD will seem as though it's from one show.  NIN did this (as well as other bands) with the "And All That Could of Been" DVD. 

This is exciting.  This big of band putting out a DVD in this small of venue?  Huge!  You never know, it could be a part of CD when it comes out.  A DVD/CD combo wold be a good way to sell records and minimize downloads. : ok:

Just one thing: it's not only Axl and Co who's wearing the same clothes...Sebastian Bach Too

or maybe it's just for a futur video-clip like You Could Be Mine in 1991.

No Sebastian didnt wear the Pantera shirt on Sunday. I was there. He wore a white and black checkered button down shirt.

It is a standard industry DVD trick and the signs are pointing to it being likely but I wouldnt cling onto hope too strongly yet.

Remember ... its GnR.

yea i would def think it would be for a dvd, thats the first thing i recognized was that axl had the same shirt on last night. so a dvd would be cool, but you never know

The crowd are wearing the same clothes as well  :hihi:

And we all know that what the crowd wears is of no concern, right? ::)

I think it is just for the first music video of Better. 

i doubt it. live music videos basically went out with the 80's.

everyone wearing the same stuff, bach wearing the same stuff, set list being very similar, interviews with people in line.

it all seems to add up to a dvd.

with that said, i bet there was a time will be played on wednesday, thats the only song that the cameras would need to get more coverage on.

yeah   gnr is back dude....  everything is possible now : ok:

It cost a ton of money to get a camera crew for 4 days. ?And all of the crowd shot as well that people have been describing, I don't think it's for 1 video.

if that turned out to be true, and they made their first video for chinese democracy just some live footage, i think it would 1) be stupid, because if you want to sell you need to get the kids and you need something flashier, and 2) crap, i had a two and i forgot it.

itll come back to me.

 if that is what they do though, i would be very disappointed.

why can't you have a video with live clips dotted around throughout?  ??? Plenty of bands do it nowadays  :smoking:

sorry. it doesnt fit with my video dream for better.

some one get me axl on the phone, i need to sell this.

I also think it will be the video for Better.... I mean... this song has been played at all the shows so far hasnt it..???

If it was just a video for one song why would baz sing on the same song every night and why would they need to flim the entire show all 4 night? If it was just clips for a video, the sound wouldnt matter because it would be overdubbed with the studio version anyway. An actual live version for the video just isnt going to happen. They might use clips, but i really think this is for a full on dvd.

As well as plenty of other songs.

Im sure they intend on making a dvd, that dosnt mean there will be a dvd for release. Alot of bands film for a dvd but never release.

GNR did this in 01 with the Las Vegas show.

True.  But not over the course of 4 shows and wearing the same clothing.  A whole different ballgame.

The DVD will probaly be released with Chinese Democracy, which is my bet...

The only one wearing the same clothes was Axl!!!

i see finck in the same clothes too

They really all look great. I also like the stage configuration very much (the screens, the lights, the pyro etc...).
There's everything to make a beautifull DVD. :peace:

i do think it was funny to see axl try to run around though like he was on his usually large stages, he kept having to manuever around things and watch his step.

i thought it was funny. editing can remove that though.
