Not much point in that, really. Just download Rock AM Ring, Rock In Rio or KROQ Inland Invasion and burn them onto a DVD!

i love them
best "nostalgic" effect for me. as i watched 'em a lot growing up.
stage is big. camera are good and you have a great variety of angles.

i admit this is a very "polished" version of a gnr show.

still amazing tho.  :nod:

The Japs all looked wooded in the audience because something was happenin back around '92. Becuase of capatalism, the Japanese folk didnt know how to express their personalities, and were led by "nothingness" in their lives, had nowt to fill their empty souls with, thus showin no sign of enjoyment or entertainment of sorts in that show. That is why they were all stood there like carboard cutouts, bar the odd few being renagades and bouncing about.

But for them to be so wooden, in such a large capacity, is truly odd, to say that GN'R were absolutley fuckin mega huge in Japan.

Well i guess thats politics for ya.

The Japanese have a very calm and peaceful culture, they don't express their excitement in the same manner as Western people.

this could be one the the most ignorant statements i have ever read on this board. where are you getting your info? japanese crowds have ALWAYS been known for being quite reserved. in between songs, they will cheer the artists, but during the songs they are rather laid back. i do believe that i read that it was a sign of respect for the performance.

i have videos of kiss, judas priest, iron maiden, bon jovi, and motley crue....all of the crowds have behaved in a similar manner. the crowds are not lame, their culture is just different.

No-one seems to mention anything about Slash...IMO he played shite on this concert, whenever he bends, in the NR solo for example, he either takes it 2 high or doesn't quite reach the note.
The Paris concerts were a lot BETTER IMO, shame the majority of the concert was in daylight!

all thoose japs headbanging, its just the funniest thing ever!  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:


As someone who is engaged to a woman of Japanese heritage I find this type of language to be horribly racist, yet typical of most Americans. Isn't it ironic that Americans can throw around this word like it doesn't mean anything. I mean had these posters had dropped the N-Bomb it would have been a different story.

As for the DVDs I found the sound quality was lacking. Gilby appeared to be strung out, When talking about his new solo cd, Duff was sooooo hammered.

Just my 2 cents.

From other comments they've made, I'm guessing the original poster is quite the bigot.

I remember buying the Tokyo concert when it first came out on VHS...I was alittle dissapointed....it was too clean...there was just something about the lighting and Axl running back and changing every five minutes...it wasn't raw like the Ritz in 88'.  I like the shows in 91' where Axl is sweating his ass off and his hair is soaked and he didn't give a fuck  and he's just saying whatever he wants.  And I was even more dissapointed when they came out on DVD with no features added to the discs.

It could have just been the recording technology wasn't up to scratch, but i thought they lacked a little bit... Axl's voice wasn't the greatest, it seemed to take him some time to get into a song, eg s.c.o.m, the start was shit, but it got better.
And I think Gilby's guitar was too quiet, i can hardly hear any rythm guitar.
