Quotes:

Three nights later in Westport, New York, the Gunners topped [the August 6 Saratoga show] with a show Axl describes as "just, like, psycho." [1988.11.17, Interview with the band].

Axl: We generate a weird type of excitement. I mean, Izzy put it best, "When you're doing a ballad and people are killing each other in a crowd like in Weedsport, New York, beating the crap of each other, then something's wrong." We don't really understand it. We like the energy, you know. And everybody likes you to see a good bar-room brawl or something, but when it turns into such a mess, I mean, a bar-room brawl is a movie, it's not real life [MTV Documentary, 1989].
