Thank you, YouTube! This is so awesome: Guns N' Roses performing at C.B.G.B.'s in October 1987. The best clip to our ears is the one above-- Patience-- but Axl and Slash look and sound great in all five clips:

Move to the City
Used to Love Her
One in a Million
You're Crazy

Oh for those halcyon days back in the 1980s when Axl was still semi-coherent and GnR ruled the world-- how we miss them!
