DieselDaisy Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 He does not ageHe looks 50 somethin, just like everyone in Guns. The real Guns.Disagree. I would say he looks late 30s-40s. And in comparison to Izzy Stradlin (and to a lesser degree Duff), Axl, Slash and Steven have aged far more. Adler obviously had that stroke which left him with a facial-speech impairment but otherwise looks alright. Slash usually has a massive beer gut these days and there is something odd about his hairline also. Axl looks bloated and has 'Chinese eyes' because of his weight as well as plastic surgery. He now dresses like a cross between David Crosby and a 1970s aging porn star - Izzy Stradlin was the only one who knew how to dress in that band. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infact I would say he looks the oldest of all original GNR, except for maybe Duff. But then junkies never age well. Axl and Slash are more heavily scrutinised because of their fame, but they have both aged better than Izzy who looks every inch of his 53 years.

For a start, weight gain ages you dramatically and, whereas Axl and Slash are both porkers, Stradlin is still a bean post. PSDuff would look the youngest if his face did not look like granite.

IZZYISGNR Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Aging well : Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp. Not Axl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) I actually think weight gain can be kind to aging folk. The fat irons out the wrinkles. Scrawny people tend to get that shrivelled up Mick Jagger look. Edited July 22, 2015 by Towelie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Axl has a face like a bollock with a ginger moustache attached. How is he supposed to look younger than Stradlin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IZZYISGNR Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) Axl doesn't even look like he's the same person as 20 years ago. He can walk in most streets of the world without being recognized. Even in Brazil... There's a funny video about that on youtube.

I think Axl looks fine for someone of 53. Fans just love to demonise everything about the man. Edited July 22, 2015 by Towelie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MYWIFEMYLIFE Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 feels like a boyband forum why are people so into aging and outer look n stuff? it's not that i'm fat and have White hair in my 39 Izzy is the man, btw. He's the coolest guy, the real deal in GNR. After Steven was kicked out, the band was wounded severely, after Izzy left, the band literally died. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How to dress like an average Joe, maybe. If that's what you like in the aesthetics of a rock band, Keane must be the most stylish band on Earth to you. Who had iconic looks that everyone remembers from GNR's heyday, that left a lasting impression and will always be remembered and instantly recognised by even the most casual of observers as a part of pop culture history? Axl and Slash or Izzy?Axl doesn't even look like he's the same person as 20 years ago. He can walk in most streets of the world without being recognized. Even in Brazil... There's a funny video about that on youtube.Axl doesn't even look like he's the same person as 9 years ago! Probably because he isn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IZZYISGNR Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Frankly, I prefer Izzy's face.anybody with an ounce of taste would prefer Izzy's face. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Frankly, I prefer Izzy's face. Yes because posting a picture of him at 32 and then another at 52 is really a fair comparison. Shock horror, Axl Rose aged like every other human being on the planet. Stop the press!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the poppy dicks like 'Axl n Slash' but the real cool people liked Izzy and Duff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is Axl and Slash's looks left an indelible impression that lasts to this day and Izzy didn't. Sure he'd look more acceptable walking down the street, but looking acceptable is the antithesis of rock and roll. You'd have probably liked Hendrix more with a shit Jimmy Rodgers hat and a rumpled dinner jacket too. The New York Dolls should have all had short back and sides and worn sensible shoes and their Sunday best. The Sex Pistols needed a damn good scrub down, a sensible haircut, and some nice jumpers. Christ, thank God for 'poppy dicks'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like Neil Young, Springsteen and Dylan do not require any of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padme Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Izzy looks younger than a 53 year old guy at least in this picture in particular. In fact he looks younger than all his former bandmates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like Neil Young, Springsteen and Dylan do not require any of this.Neil Young dresses like an aging hippie, Springsteen dresses like he's desperately trying to appear working class and Dylan's looks have been variously stolen from forgotten folk, blues and jazz musicians. Quite telling.Anyway, you're anti-fun, anti-colour, anti-Freddie Mercury, anti-Janis Joplin, Alice Cooper makes your monacle pop out. Anti-the things that make the kids scream and cheer and run home and imitate and piss off their parents, cause you can't be on a poster or a magazine cover and still be a musician. A bland world of serious, sensibly dressed troubadours is utopia. Understood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think he'd have more sense than to invite the comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
