The place in the tour story

The official artist retrospective identifies December 12 as the first performance of this engagement and December 31 as the final one. These are the selected boundaries documented here; they are not a complete list of every performance between them.

The same account says Slash joined the final show. A guest appearance is one reason to identify a concert by date rather than simply calling a circulating video 'Tokyo 1992'. The presence of a guest can distinguish a particular performance, but it does not by itself authenticate every online recording carrying that label.

Tokyo Dome's own artist archive is a second research route for checking venue history. Fans comparing the music can listen for the relationship between the Dangerous album's programmed rhythms and a concert arrangement's guitar and percussion. This listening suggestion is interpretation; it is not a sourced claim about every show's exact setlist.
