Aside from the asshole talking shit (and with awful video recording skills and notion), really great video. DJ nailed and won everyone over there. Thanks man!

Well said -- it's the first video I've seen, hopefully we get one down on the field where we can see Dj.  It does sound good and he did win everyone over.

And the guy that shot the video posted this part:

Considering it was taken from a cell phone, by a football fan, who had no care if it came out like an A+ live recording... it was an average recording. Guy was excited for the game, can't blame him for screaming.

Pretty funny about the Slash comment, still shows that - as I've said before - people associate GNR guitar work with Slash, almost immediately!

But still, it was cool to see this - some nice recognition for GNR in the USA.  ...now all we need is a tour!

Whatever cotis. Its video, not taking pictures. Anything other than landscape mode - specially if you intent to post on YouTube - will be distorted. Im not talking about pro-recording.

Also, the Slash comment wasnt the problem. The thing is the guy expected to be a disaster. Im glad DJ and the whole crowd there just shut him up.

Had to love his comment a few seconds in. "Actually this is pretty cool".  And by the end of it you hear "KEEP PLAYING!!"

Yeah....DJ won em over...again

DJ played it brilliantly from the sounds of it.

I have no comments about the video source, it's obviously from someone who don't care about the content of the video as much as us. Their comments towards the start back this up, they are just there for the match.

That's why I hope a better video source comes through soon. I want to at least see DJ, and not have some casuals speaking all over of it.

But well done to DJ, from all of the reports so far, it sounds like he did an amazing job.

yes! By all accounts it was a great performance!  Almost every game so far has been upped to net, except the one we are waiting for   soon enough I hope!

Yet you question his "skills", when all he was doing is taking a small video clip to remind himself of a moment of a NFL game?

Pretty sure he could care less what everyone thought!

Definitely a better video than the first, and by the looks of it, DJ owned it. 

The crowd was with him all the way, and the fireworks at the end was a nice touch. I like how the word 'Democracy' appears on the flash screen halfway up the stadium along with 'Freedom', nice little touch. 

Thanks FunkyMonkey for posting that, I'm sure more will surface too.

Thanks again Funky, the footage is a lil better.

Yeah, he got a really nice vertical video to watch on his screen. You should try.

But actually Im pretty sure YOU could care less about it - as long as you can post something to bitch and be negative. Well done.

Hardly, I think it's cool DJ did it - like previously stated, great way to get the GNR name out there in the US!

Who cares if it's vertical or not, a cell phone video is still cell phone video.

It's cool we got a recording of it, that's what matters.

Wonder if this is anyway, a tiny bit of promotion for the upcoming US Tour ?

Cheers for the videos, guys.  Sounded great! and I love that guitar...
Well done Dj 

[gnr-4-ever]

That was one hell of a performance! Well done, DJ!!

And can't wait for the pro shot video, that one should really kick ass and show what a great thing this was. 

[Christos AG]

Well, I watched the soundcheck live thanks to ashbacam... and I wasn't expecting anything less than a GREAT performance by DJ...

Hopefully he'll post the pro-vid soon...

Yeah, but these are the same kind of people who didn't know who George Bush was when shown a photo of him during his presidency.
