Brunzopolis Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) I think I look up to and admire all performers to a certain degree. Musicians, comedians...jugglers...basically anyone that goes up on a stage and subjects themselves to judgment. Particularly when they are first starting out.Of the GNR members, I think I probably have the most respect for Axl (I don't wanna use the phrase 'look up to'. 'Respect' is more fitting I think). Just for the endless amount of shit that gets slung at him (deserved or not). Yet he still mostly goes out there and does his thing; and from what I can gather, mostly sticks to his principles.But you can go down the line and make note of admirable things all the other members have done as well.Then there's just the fact that all of them, at one point, have had near godlike power to indulge every human desire possible and explore every vice, and yet they've all been able to reign things in and avoid blowing themselves up.

yoshimura Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Chris Pitman for his quintessential freeloading prowess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TupacShakur Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I look up to axl the most because he taught me how to stand up to my parents and quit my job at a factory and never let anyone out to get me bring me down in life 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darknightfan Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 When I posed this question I really didnt expect people to think the members were the most respectable people ever but more so who is your favorite member and why. They aren't the ideal role models ever but they are your favorite band I suppose because you post on a forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnyrose5 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 W. Axl Rose, maybe not as much now as when I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Not only did Axl have a rough childhood, but according to the past live therapy stuff he had, he also had a lot of bad things happen to him in his past lives 100s of years ago. Poor guy has had to struggle through trauma for several hundred years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stella Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 When I posed this question I really didnt expect people to think the members were the most respectable people ever but more so who is your favorite member and why. They aren't the ideal role models ever but they are your favorite band I suppose because you post on a forum.They are *one* of my favorite bands. I post on this forum because they are interesting to discuss and there are interesting threads here.If the question is just "who is your favorite," that would be Duff. And then Axl.

Rapidfire Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Slash. He's passionate at what he does, humble,incredibly talented and the fact that he constantly pushes out new music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumblefeet Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Axl. For the lyrics mostly. Slash secondly for the solos and Bumblefoot thirdly for not messing up the solos live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay410 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I probably most admire Duff, the ways he's gotten a handle on life and turned things around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsfan Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Axl. Considering where he came from such a toxic and abusive environment and got to the level he did without actually killing anyone is pretty inspiring. But I also admire slash for his hair.

CardinalGunner Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 As a 35 year old man, I don't necessarily "look up" to anyone.But I admire the way Duff cleaned himself up, went to college, and made himself a better person. Really inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosonen Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Been Axl fanboy since 1992, so hes my choice. Hes charisma and voice are so damn unique. More from adult non fanboy point of view, DUff is the one I respect highly. Getting sober, getting life together....great inspiration for a lot of people, including me. Also great musician.
