        One of my regrets is not seeing GNR in concert during this era. I bought their debut album after hearing "Welcome to the Jungle" on a college radio station (back when they were still almost unknown and not yet played on MTV or commercial rock stations). I immediately loved the album, and still do, but really wish I made more of an effort to catch them in concert during this period.

                    I wish Velvet Revolver woulda stayed together ...., They had some Jamm'in Tunes, and were great in Concert.

                      I dunno if it was Duff that said it on MTV when they got popular, " Only we 4 can be Guns and Roses. Only us. If you change anything it won't be the same anymore!" He got that right.

                        Yeah, I honestly think the band was at thier best back during the "Use your Illusion Tour" era. Musically, no one could touch them or take them down......except for Axl .......

                        I still jam plenty of GnR today....

                          Never liked them. Axl has an ego that could fill up the Grand Canyon.
                          Saw 'em twice at a festival. First time they got on stage an hour late, second time an hour and a half late.
                          Saw Slash a couple of weeks ago and he plays GnR songs too, but without the ego

                            A star that shines twice as bright lasts only half as long!!!

                            They were awesome back then.
                            What a pathetic waste of talent!!!

                            Nighttrain is one of my favorite songs ever,no matter what your doing when that song comes on you just can't help get fired up ready.

                              Yeah, that song is great.... I also get real fired up when I hear:

                              Rocket Queen
                              Back off *****

                              Man, I could go one and on with picking favorite GnR songs LOL
