MTV is doing a little poll of the Most iconic Video Music awards performance. And in that list, there’s the performance of Welcome to the jungle in 1988! AMAZING performance to say the least! So if you have 30 seconds, vote for it! MAke Guns N’ Roses rule the world again!
After the amazing news of Guns N’ Roses playing at Rock in Rio later this year, I wanted to have a flashback of the Rock in Rio III, 10 years ago, where GnR made a killer fucking set.
Can’t wait to see what will happen in October.
ROCK IN RIO, BE READY FOR GUNS N ROSES!!!!!!

Another threw the years post. I like them a lot..;)
This one is fucking great! PARADISE CITY! One of the greatest rock n’ roll anthem of all time. Everything is spot on on this song. Riff, lyrics, energy
Seing that song live is a total blast. If you saw that live, you really know what I am talking about.
On december 19th 2009, Guns N’ Roses played their longest show ever. It was a KILLER show. And for those of you who didn’t sse it. Well here it is. It’s all there. Enjoy! 3 hours and fourty minutes of Mayhem. Too bad that the videos are not as good as the december 16th show. Sorry !
Thanks to all the uploaders. And sorry if I miss 2 or 3..:(
Since the super bowl, where we saw an ex Guns N’ Roses member make a fool out of himself, some web sites (i won’t name and link you there because I don’t wanna make publicity for them) just started saying that negociations were starting to bring the original line-up of Guns N’ Roses back together for the next Super Bowl. That those negociations were under way, and that people were really interesting in this….
WHAT A PILE OF CRAP.
For the people believing that Axl and that ex-guitar player will get back together…well think again. IT WILL NEVER happen. NEVER. And why should those two get back together? Give me one reason why. The only reason they would get back together is $$$$$$. Of course, the ex-player would take the cash….THAT is for sure. We saw what he did at the Super Bowl..But Axl don’t need no money. He has plenty, and I don’t believe one second that he would do the whore just to get some more money. He will leave that to somebody else.
And musically…why in the hell some people want to see the original line-up? Once in awhile, YES, it is nice to see Duff, Izzy,playing some old tunes for the fun of it with the current line-up. It was fun seing Izzy in 2006 rocking some tunes with Axl, and it was fun to see Duff rocking You could be mine last year. Personnally, I would love to see Steven banging his drums on Rocket queen once in awhile..Just for fun. That would be cool for fans, and of course for STeven. Steven deserve to have fun for a couple of nights, and play to big crowd once more. But to play with Sla$h? Nahhhh…. The current line-up is AMAZING. We have super musicians that blow the minds of everybody that saw the band live! People who wanna see the original line-up didn’t see the current line-up live, OR are living in the past. Living with the impression that the good old days were better than the days we are now.
I am asking myself WHY we would wanna see some guys that don’t wanna be together on the same stage anymore? WHY? Forget the “good ol’ days”, and live in the present people. Some GREAT things happened in the past few years for Gunners fans. A GREAT CD, GREAT shows around the world etc etc. What would people gain in seing 2 guys hating each other pleying together? NOTHING AT ALL!
Some people say to me that it is inevitable. That we will see the original line-up one day. I don’t believe it one single bit. I don’t believe it, and I don’t wanna see it happen. Guns N’ Roses now has never been better live, and we should leave it like that. Not only that, but I don,T think I ever saw Axl so happy to play live, and so happy to be surrounded by his band mates. JUST LEAVE IT LIKE THAT! Axl is not close to the idea of inviting ex members to join him onstage. He said it before. BUT ONLY ONE AT A TIME, AND NOT SLASH!
Axl has all my respect to stay focus on his band, and not to live in the past. Past is past. Look in the future, and leave the past where it is. Robert PLant don’t wanna reunite Led Zeppelin…GREAT. Leave Led Zeppelin where it is. Those 2 have all my respect. Reuniting a band that was once good just for the money is NOT what I call a rock n’ Roll attitude.
I call it being a whore, plain and simple!

Here is another “Threw the years ” post. This one is a great one. Rocket Queen. A GREAT FUCKING song. It has been written for a girl Axl knew back then. And later this week or next week, I will have a special surprise for you guys….Hope you will like it.
But for now, let’s go out on a journey…a journey with the ROCKET QUEEN!!!!
RockStar Weekly is pleased to announce the second release in our Tour Edition Collection. This time out we’re looking at the 2009-2010 Guns N’ Roses Chinese Democracy Tour with a 60 page collection of set lists from the entire tour. The magazine is being printed and distributed by Hewlett-Packard Development Company production service MagCloud.
We saw some incredible set lists on this tour, including a 42-song outing in Tokyo, Japan which lasted 3 hours and 37 minutes. Let’s hope that show finds it’s way to official DVD/Blu-Ray release. In traditional GNR manner, the set list changes are frequent and the lengths of the shows range from 21 to 42 songs. The band also had fun performing several covers as full songs or instrumentals during the tour. The complete list of songs performed is below. This book also contains a great fan story from Elías Helgi, who went from Iceland to Canada to see GNR.
We hope you enjoy this collection of set lists from the 2009-2010 GNR tour dates – It’s the only collection of its kind available in printed matter and would be a great memento if you attended one of the shows. As a bonus, RockStar Weekly will donate $1.00 from each magazine sold to Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal’s favourite charity – the Multiple Sclerosis Research Foundation.
Here is the adress if you wanna join in. Just press the LIKE button, to have every blog post as soon as I post them. The more we are, the more we will have fun, and know what’s up with Guns N’ Roses.
