Live
"Rocket Queen" is often played at Guns N' Roses concerts, despite never being released as a single. At a handful of shows during the Use Your Illusion Tour, Axl Rose would sometimes rap a small part of their unreleased song called "It Tastes Good, Don't It?" in the middle of the song. This can be seen on the Use Your Illusion II DVD.
Notably, it was during this song that Axl stage-dived after a fan with a camera and then got back up and said, "Well! Thanks to the lame-ass security, I'm going home!", and then threw the mic down and stormed off-stage, starting the Riverport Riot of 1991 in St. Louis.
It is also played by Slash during his solo tour.

Famous quotes containing the word live:
“But mark, madam, we live amongst riddles and mysteries—the most obvious things, which come in our way, have dark sides, which the quickest sight cannot penetrate into; and even the clearest and most exalted understandings amongst us find ourselves puzzled and at a loss in almost every cranny of nature’s works.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“Casting me adrift, 3500 miles from a port of call. You’re sending me to my doom, eh? Well, you’re wrong, Christian! I’ll take this boat as she floats to England if I must. I’ll live to see you—all of you—hanging from the highest yardarms in the British fleet.”
—Talbot Jennings (1896–1985)
“Why should we live with such hurry and waste of life? We are determined to be starved before we are hungry.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
