Does Axl bow when he's proud?

[seagullview]

Just noticed in the 92 Oklahoma clip just posted here in another topic on Estranged, Axl makes a bow there at the end. I've seen him do that many times after the intro to TIL as well, like he knows he did a very good job or he's particularly pleased with his own performance. I mean he has good reason too in that Estranged clip that was fucking brilliant!

Here is an example from TIL

at around 01:13

I want that signature voice back.

[GNRmello77]

probably thats the case cuz i have seen him bow many times during a song or after when he pulled it off pretty well or when he gets lots of cheers for an epic moment or so

[GUNNER PT]

Axl bows to thank.

Why can't he wear a jacket like this instead of those awful bulky ones that weigh like 15lbs each?

Because it would show that he's fat nowadays.

If he finishes on a really long note he'll bow. The crowd usually gets louder when he does a long note and Axl returns the noise with appreciation in the form of a bow.

Patience from Recife

Final note starts at 5:42 and ends at 6:00. 6:17 he bows.

Usually artists bow to thank the audience.

[Jordan Rose]

It's to acknowledge the audience's reaction/appreciation. He always bows after the first chorus of TIL because the audience always pops for it.

[Guest NGOG]

As others have pointed out, it's merely his way of responding to a positive crowd reaction.
