Classic VR Performances

« on: October 26, 2008, 06:54:02 PM »

I guess since they are forgotten now, I came across a couple really good gems...

Many of these clips are from one of their final shows as a band... The band was tight as fuck.

Thank you! Better musicians than Duff and Slash there isn't. In opinion no one can play these songs better than they do, Scott is not my favourite singer but the music is absolutly awesome.

That Slash solo is amazing. Slash is getting better & faster which is unbelievable! I think we are yet to see there greatest work yet.

As much as I love VR, I must say that, altough this is a great quality recorded gig, the performance of the band is poor.

From the moment they turned the tunning one half step down, the band's performance's quality went worst and worst.

The first shows rocked. The band had a totally different attitude, the chemistry between them was completly different, Scott's voice was better (for me, the main factor of VR's live performance's decadence).

From the South American Tour on, the band's performance went worst. I've been in two of the shows of the South American Tour in 2007. I loved the shows, just because I had those guys playing in fornt of me. Even if they played "el payaso plin-plin" I would have loved it; but after some time listening to those recordings (both shows in Buenos Aires) you konw, haveing listened to 2005/2004 shows, that they did it better before and something wasn't right.

For me, their last tour was the best only because I got to sit on stage and watch them perform. Fucking amazing
