Rating: 3 stars
Summary: GNR Rock the Tokyo Dome
Review: This is about the closest many of us will get to revisiting this era of the band. Gilby Clarke does a formidable job in deputizing for the great Izzy Stradlin and the boys blow away the lucky Japanese who witnessed this live back in 1992. Visually the video is impressive with some wicked angles and good editing. The band's performance itself is energetic and an all out, balls to the wall assault. Alas the audio element leaves a LOT to be desired. In many instances the balance is off or the volume fades unexpectantly. One would have expected this particular aspect to be stellar on the dvd but alas it merely serves to ruin the experience of some of the tunes. Still, Gunner fans who dont already own the VHS version, will enjoy themselves. Grade: B.

Summary: Bring it back, Please!
Review: This showed them in the top of their career, and the end of it. Their stage performance was so amazing and Axl sang each song with such spirit. They definitly need to bring the act back; because music is dying with a bunch of pop acts who 'just don't have it.'GNR Rules.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Genius
Review: This video oozes class in everyway, starts off rather slow but builds up to a electric pace. This video is a must buy for all guns n roses fans. The best bit i hear u ask! The AWESOME Slash solo at the end of Double Talking Jive, SHEER GENIUS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Video Ever!
Review: This video rocks! Nightrain, Mr. Brownstone, Live and Let Die, Its So Easy, Bad Obession, Attitude, Pretty Tied Up, Welcome to the Jungle, Dont Cry, Double Talkin Jive, Civil War, Wild Horses, Patience, and November Rain. Those are all the songs they play. Plus, a few times they show them talking about other members of the band. I highly reccommend this video! Axl runs around the stage just doing weird stunts for the whole 90 minutes, Duff sings the song "Attitude", Matt pounds on the drums, Slash does AMAZING guitar solos (some with Duff, some with Gilby). Get this video, its so much fun to watch over and over!

Summary: Use Your Discretion 1
Review: WEAK. That sums up this offering. Visually its an OK show to watch. Sound quality is also just OK. Performance wise...very flat. Perhaps it was the notoriously reserved Japanese crowd that failed to draw the best out of the Gunners on this occasion. Its a shame they could not have recorded a US show where the crowds are more upbeat(or flat out insane)in many cases and may have possibly elicited more energy from the band. Whatever the case...this show,sadly,has very little edge and is in fact sloppy and boring in too many spots. Many bands have done it right...AC/DC,RUSH and STEVE VAI are examples of outstanding,tight live shows caught on DVD...this one is NOT.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is how a live dvd was meant to be
Review: Weither you are a guns n roses fan or not, you would have to admit that this dvd is everything a live dvd should be. Everything is raw and uncut, just as if you were in the crowd watching the band. You actually get to watch the show as it was, not how they want you to see it. Recorded live shows like these really show the actuall quality of the band, you actually get to hear the band itself instead of some studio crap thats been produced and cut till its perfect. The GnR performance is excellent. A must have dvd for any hard rock fan thats interested in watching an actual show of one of the best rock bands ever! Dont forget about the Use your Illusion 2 dvd! You need that one as well to complete this live masterpiece!
