Are you basing that off the live show which I haven't seen so I can't judge that. The show in early 92? with Metallica was awesome. The new studio stuff seems lame.

I would like to see some of the old shows released on BD. I have a Paris show on LD. Still have Appetite and both Illusions on vinyl.

What new studio stuff?

Axl Rose post-botox in all its 1080p glory?

Just goes to show so much ignorance from people

I've seen this band 6 times (as of Tuesday) since 2011 and all of the shows have been great. Going to the last 3 shows in Vegas in June as well and can't wait! Hoping this actually comes out this time as it's been delayed for going on the last year or so.

I'm a hardcore Guns N' Roses fan and I can tell you this is worthless and nobody should waste $10 in this, let alone $17.49. Axl doesn't sound anything like before. Regardless of who's in the band, there's no need for anyone to have this as a "Guns N' Roses experience".

The show they're releasing is from 2012. Axl sounded good up until 2010. Go to YouTube and stream some videos from both years and decide for yourself.

No.

Wouldn't you agree that a gig from 2010 should be 1000 times better to own in blu-ray?

It is a good album, which makes sense in light of changing influences and styles of music coming and going over the years in which it was written and recorded. Most of the hate for it comes from people who just want the EXACT same things they heard before (ACDC anyone?

), but that ain't gonna happen. GNR is a band which went from doing straight up hard rock like Appetite to multi album works of art like the use your illusion albums. The band and all its incarnations have changed in different ways over the years and that is cool. Change and experimentation is not bad.

Some of the stuff that Axl and the other band members are doing goes right over people's heads. They don't immediately recognize the really neat stuff which they are paying homages to. On songs like Madagasgar, Axl is straight up doing a Tina Turner homage and it works.

I bought Chinese Democracy the day it came out, and have listened to it countless times. I guess it's a matter of perspective, but I don't consider an album released six years ago to be "new."

I am basing this on the new concerts and the old. The new band is better all around and you leave loving them.
