What?! oh come on now, he did not sound like shit at those shows..no one in vegas left those shows saying "he sounded like shit"..don't tell me you did? everyone left those shows saying "he kicked ass"..its easy to be an armchair critic after the fact, scrutinizing someone's cell phone clips...Yes, he sounds amazing here with all that rasp, but that doesn't take away from how good he's also sounding with guns. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go watch the videos. Axl didn't sound very good at the show I was at. He had his moments but he didn't sound nearly as good as this. I left the Vegas show thinking it was an amazing time seeing Axl/Slash and Duff on stage together again and rocking out for 3 hours to a house packed full of die hards. I also knew Axl didn't sound that great and screwed up a lot of lyrics. He seemed to get better as the shows went on but still never reached this level. Maybe for some songs but not consistently for a whole show like this. This was exceptional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colonizedmind Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 I'm not a complete expert but Axl seemed to perform without forgetting a lyric too...Albeit his favourite band but STILL not something he's always managed for his own lyrics! Clearly AXL/DC for anyone for some strange season that isn't a fan on this board, at least it shows you what Axl is capable of doing when taking proper part of prep! Now I think GNR promo will ramp up mid June and I think Facebook promo like AC/DC is likely, interviews down the line, when the price is right...People forget, they're probably waiting the highest bidder on the "story" ...:P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would of looked worse to say, cancel everything, the show is over. we'll agree to disagree on that. demanding someone to give you insight into something they may not be comfortable in doing so is not Good public relations as you say..but I digress. gooday sir I'd say the same thing if I felt like arguing for the sake of arguing when I know I had no weight or base for my own argument. No one is demanding anything, never said that. Just saying its respectful to at least talk to your fans whether you reveal anything or not. Kind of a respect thing.

cqleonardo Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 impressive how people are never happy about anything... He sounded good, he sounded very very very good, he was screaming his lungs out and it was amazing, you can see he is happy, the band is happy, there is a little harmony between them, its amazing. you just can't stop bitching about it haha, if he is mickeying people bitch about, if he is screaming people bitch about... what do you want? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main guy on stage is Angus, so in that regard, him sitting is fine. If AXl could run around, I can already hear people complaining about him wanting to steal Angus show. It might be a good thing at the moment. It's not like Brian Johnson really ran around like a maniac himself. I don't know if the best singers really do, other than axl I supposed He sounds great. Let's hope this continues.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe for some songs but not consistently for a whole show like this. This was exceptional. I guess I take a slightly different view..i went into the vegas show not being totally certain on if he could pull it off..and then was totally blown away, my expectations were exceeded..I guess you weren't, and that's fair..did you really stand there and notice/care him screwing up lyrics tho? I bet you did not do that if you saw them in 91 or 92! and I think that's the difference with being a fan when we are young, and an older mature one..we are much more accepting of our bands flaws when we are younger don't you think? and being of the ahem,"older" generation, I (too easily) made myself think like a 20yr old again for these shows and I think in general we can't expect anything to be as good as when it was fresh and new..and I almost don't like to watch any of the videos b/c it is very easy to lose sight of how good they were live when you are watching poor quality video..having said that, these clips are fantastic. Which just makes me even more excited for some more great gnr shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gt72 Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 He definitely nailed it tonight.Very impressive,kudos to him.I don't get he sounded like a shit at Guns shows.I was at Vegas night 2 and came away very impressed .Sure he struggled a bit on ycbm and PC but overall I thought he was sounding good and even great at times 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
