Ok here goes,

Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert

Paradise City
Knockin' On Heaven's Door

Enjoy?

Is it just me, or does Matt's snare and overall drumming on both songs seem kinda luckluster and boring? Other than that the rest of the band and especially the redhead are in tiptop shape.

AHH, It's So Easy and Welcome to the Jungle live at the Ritz 88 when MTV aired a majority of the show. That is my favorite version of Jungle ever.

Its my favorite version of WTTJ  too man,  its excellent, I think its the first video i saw from them... and since then I ve been charmed...

The Ritz show. Not the PAris show though. How many TV GN'R shows have there been?

[noGnoG]

My favorite was NR with elton John I think. Not because its the best of GNR I've ever seen, but because it was the first time I saw them on tv (except for videos).

By the way, thanks to all who uploaded files, Down on the farm was new to me. Real cool performance. Thanks a lot!

mmm do you remember, the "Yesterdays" performance, from the American Music Awards...? that was cool!!!

The 1988 VMA was bad ass.........BAS ASS!!!!! Patience in 89 was pretty cool too with the replacement drummer.
But Axl looked possessed in 88 and Slash was like something very new n cool to people my age. i was born in 1976. they were like this perfect 1-2 combo, better then joe perry and tyler, and dare to say even better then page n plant.

I totally agree with u ...
Axl was incredible ..... his hipnotyc dance .... his voice ......
The best rock'n'roll performance ever ......
oh.......those were the days....

my favorite tv performance has got to be vma 02. I hadn't heard much gn'r for quite some time and it really got me curious about gn'r again, just like i was when i first got into them back in 91. it also led me to the internet and of course this site!

i didn't think much of the performance then and i thought it was really sad that the old guys were gone, but after reading up on gn'r and axl i'm back, full time motherfuckers!

Ok here goes,

Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert

Paradise City

Thanks Neemo. I had posted a request for this video a while back in the Appetite For Collection section. Now I have it.

Seeing as i have only been listening to GNR for a year and a half. And havent seen a lot of their performances, it would probably would be the VMA of 88,its unreal what 14 years will do to someone.

Well its got to be 'Jungle' from 88 VMAs. just smoking, the band were firing on all cylinders there.

Ive seen Down on the Farm from the Fram Aid gig, but never Civil War. Id love to get hold of a copy if anyone has it? Down on the farm is electrifying live.

Id say the worst one was November Rain from 1992 VMAs (or was it 1993?) - the one with Elton John. (2002 VMAs as well of course, but that goes wityhout saying.) It just sounds laboured and Slashs guitar is out of tune. Speaking of out of tune, Patience at the Grammys had it's moments, but Izzys guitar sounds out of tune and Axls whistled part is awful. Coupled with that Slashs solo has some inspired moments, but by and large it's fairly sloppy sounding.

Paradise City at the Freddie Mercury benefit sounded nice and raw as well.

ya i actually said that to myself about the 92 VMA performance, i assumed it was the footage itself but now that someone else has said it, maybe it was.   

[Megaguns]

Where can i get the video for yesterdays from the vma? can someone upload it for me?

[mikegiuliana]

I loved wttj at the vmas, ritz 88 for mtv, and seeing paris live in 92....  Maybe the favorite group thing was seeing the gnr members haning on the Ball then trashing the place

[jimb0]

Ritz 88.  Because "That" was Guns N' Roses at its best
