Guns N' Roses - Live in Saskatoon, Canada 1993 - FULL SHOW

[@XenmalexMercer]

I was working security at this GNR show in Saskatoon. That night was something else. As the band tore through the set, two almost naked girls strutted onto the stage, pizza boxes in hand. The entire security team was caught off guard with that one. Axl's puzzled expression mirrored ours as these girls casually handed out slices to Slash and the rest of the crew. The crowd went wild, unsure if it was part of the show or just a fan-driven stunt. Behind the scenes, we were in a bit of a dilemma - do we step in or let the party unfold? In the end, we decided to let it ride. The surprise on our faces matched Axl's as we watched the stage turn into a fest. It's those unscripted moments that make live shows unforgettable, man.

[@Malama_Ki]

57:15 hilarious and so rock-n-roll! Delivers beers and a 5th of Jack!

[@indiesoul733]

That episode was part of the show. The man who was with the girls was one of the crew. In South America (especially Argentina) they did the same thing with pizza but without the girls and it was the same guy.

[@TUUK2006]

Then either their TM or your head of security dropped the ball if something like that wasn't disclosed at the briefing.

[@jmillz713]

Part of the show. The half naked girls delivering the pizza's were not. That was a surprise.

[@mattewert6980]

Haha the girls were hired from Show Girls on Idylwyld

You forget just how good they were. Being young sure was cool.

True. Social media brought all the recurrent hate towards their "older" (current) version. This guys were untouchable back in the day.

Seeing the state of Duff back then is heartbreaking. I'm glad he sorted his life out and is still with us. One of the lucky ones.

[@kylesmith9944]

I was thinking the same thing. I can't believe Axl and Slash didn't stop the tour and try to get Duff some help. The man is lucky to still be alive. He looks horrible and he goes on like this until 1994.

[@shawnstarks1743]

You can kinda tell, that this was toward the end. They look interested somewhat, but they're on "automatic pilot" at this point. When this tour started, I was a sophomore in college when it ended I was a senior. Saw them 7 times on this tour. These guys were huge with 9 videos in support of this tour. You could be mine, Don't cry 1, Don't cry 2, Live and Let Die, Yesterdays, In the Garden, Garden of Eden, November Rain, Estranged, Dead Horse. They were truly incredible. (SMH)

Thr acoustic aet was awesome. It's incredible how this band could give a show with tons of smashing hits for 2 hours. My respect!

[@facerip2222]

Other people here are saying they look tired and over it by this point, but I don't see it. They're playing for over 2 hours!!! Bands don't do that, I've seen lots of concerts, I don't recall any headliner playing a set that's over 2 hours long. They look awesome to me here. It's just hit, after hit, after hit, after hit. There is absolutely no filler. It is unbelievable what an amazing rock n' roll band they were. It's such a shame we didn't get 5 more albums with songs of this quality on them. One of the coolest bands to ever do it, I'm so thankful we have videos like this of them in their glory days.

[@XISAHH]

En el concierto de Japón esta banda tocó 2 horas 50 minutos (casi 3 horas)

[@SuperGregrr]

The Ritz show is better. They sound better in that club than here. And they are still hungry...

[@rhettj81]

Tired or not they sound awesome but what the hell is going on otherwise. Axl stayed in the same outfit. Slash is wearing some other kind of hat. And duff is playing a Gibson !!!!! And Axls whole mic stand is blue. WTF!!!

[@rustynales4597]

They were a killer live band when they showed up.(for the gig) But Izzy had left and that was pretty much the end for them because he did a lot of the writing. Maybe they could have made some cool stuff but things were broken for whatever the reason.

Don't see that many shows if you don't remember a headliner playing a 2 hour set.

[@goodwater3349]

I was at this kick ass show! Still ingrained in my mind is Axl’s mic not working at the start of “You Could Be Mine”. He angrily slams it to the ground and walks away. After Axl leaving the stage at the Montreal show I was very worried that this Saskatoon show was over. But Axl came back and finished the show! I always remembered this moment at the beginning of the show but it appears this was 1.5 hours in (1:34:05)

I was in Montreal that night. Even though they only played 40ish minutes, it was worth every penny.

Okay so its like this...the body reaches exhaustion and then you get your second wind. Anything after that is autopilot , which usually occurs after the 2nd year of touring. I think G&R toured over 3 years during this era so what you're seeing is the band running on autopilot AKA instinct.
