Title: Researching 91 Riot in St.Louis Post by: Verasa on November 13, 2013, 08:03:32 PM 1st: Perhaps this is the wrong section and if so, my apologies and move to wherever.
Ok. I'm doing a research paper on the 91 GnR riot in St.Louis and wondering where I can get any academic resources, if anyone here could point me in the right direction? Would the St.Louis paper have that archived or did that appear in any major publications? I don't think websites in specific will work as a resource, but if anyone had any knowledge of where to find some good info on that or have done a research paper on GnR related stuff would be cool to hear :beer: Title: Re: Researching 91 Riot in St.Louis Post by: LunsJail on November 13, 2013, 08:14:58 PM 1st: Perhaps this is the wrong section and if so, my apologies and move to wherever.

Quite the interview btw Title: Re: Researching 91 Riot in St.Louis Post by: WAR41 on November 21, 2013, 10:24:15 AM http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/articles/showarticle.php?articleid=75 /jarmo I had never read that article... its incredible. It was very interesting to see Axl explain his side of that story. I still don't agree with his stance on pictures during those times, but the bootleg angle is completely understandable. People were making tons of money off of them and I suppose it was difficult to differentiate between what was a camera, an audio recorder or a video camera. But then he goes on to say that he doesn't want a crappy version of a song to get out there that they half-assed live one night. I totally disagree with that. Your true fans at that time want to see the good, the bad and the ugly. I was also surprised to see him accept partial blame for the riot. Its too bad that message didn't get out. My favorite quote of the article is: Quote It's like when you get on an airplane and they give you that whole speech about where the exit doors are, or when you can smoke. Gosh I feel old, I remember those days.... |
