Todo Poderoso Timão Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Have never seen this in 13 years! It's very strange how Axl looks much closer to the 90's Axl than in all videos and photos from this gig (Rock in Rio 3). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Yea if he would have just kept his look instead of getting braids and I guess Botox to his face then he would have looked like Axl. He just changed so much between this concert and mtv VMA's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His arms look the same but he was a bit thicker in 01. It was manageable though. He could have easily lost that weight. Today it might be impossible for him to lose that belly. I'd take 01 Axl all day though. He still looked awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's easier to get back into shape when you're 25 or 30 than when you're 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandallFlagg Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 The fire was strong back then even if his vocals were way off centre, the last of the fire was 2010 that was the last meaningful opportunity for new guns to become a little more legitimate with a sequel of their own.

kanudo19 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I gained alot of weight from anti depressives and painkiller's and because im so lazy that i don't exercise and i spent most part of my day (everyday) in bed watching movies i decided to start a diet a few months ago.Now im skinny even though i don't move a fucking finger.

He doesn't give enough fucks to workout just enough so he's in shape and can deliver I give a fuck performances.I agree with that to an extent, but even then I wouldn't call it lazy. His performances aren't lazy, but from what he is capable (or maybe at this stage, we are getting to dare I say, 'was) then yes. To draw comparisons to Elvis, this is from the last performance he did, before he died, he was overweight, out of shape, but gave it 110%https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWqax9iHfRUthat motherfucker gave it 110% until he left the building well and truly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scumcat Esq. Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 He was 10 years younger than Axl is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gunns Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 He was 10 years younger than Axl is now.he was pumped full of a lot more drugs then what Axl is probably on, and was compartively more over weight then what Axl is.and for fuck sake, Axl was KILLING it , only 3-4 years ago. So he was OLDER than Elvis back then, Fitter, but still killing it. so whats the reasoning for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scumcat Esq. Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 We don't know how Elvis would've performed if he hadn't died. Axl kicked major ass when he was about his age.One can become a totally different person with totally different abilities within one second let alone several years.

So he was OLDER than Elvis back then, Fitter, but still killing it. so whats the reasoning for that?I feel like Elvis is a bad example to compare Axl to. It's not the same singing style. Axl's singing style is much more demanding. Elvis was a lazy fuck too, but he didn't have to sing WTTJ and YCBM and Paradise City every show.The problem is Axl surely understands that he needs to do certain things to give ideal performances, but it seems that he's just going for it everytime he starts another tour, and whatever the state of his body at the time dictates the quality of his delivery. That's not very professional, and it's not good enough of a reason for him to do what it takes to have as much control over his voice as possible. The quality suffers for it, and it's on Axl imo.Elvis was a drug addict, so in a way he was way more limited compared to Axl and what he can do to improve.
