I live in South America and I´m going to be thrilled to watch the band ( including her). Counting the days... She is useless. She doesn't fit in a rock band like Guns N' Roses. She looks stupid bouncing around like an idiot while pretending to play along to these timeless rock classics. Pretending to be playing shit is almost as bad as lip syncing. Her presence and appearance just ads a cheesy pop element to an otherwise bad ass rock band. If she is contributing anything, it is nothing that Dizzy couldn't do. 7 band members is just overkill . Her backing ground vocals are over stated. They might sound good on some of the ballads but they don't sound good when she is singing over Duffs backup vocals on a song like Out Ta Get Me. A song she should be nowhere near in the first place. If they want her to sing backups on ballads, just have her come out for those songs. Enjoy the show.. Those South American shows are going to be off the hook. I am jealous. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubicon Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I couldn't care less about that Melissa chick, Dizzy or a 3rd or 4th guitar player in the band. And even if they'd bring a bongo player or whatever... It may Sound better. For sure. But if I'd care about that I wouldn't go to a fckn rock concert and just stay home listening to the records. IMHO: They sounded better and more authentic back in the 80s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandanaman Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) I still do not understand why Melissa is in the band and I will never understand it. Edited October 19, 2016 by Bandanaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) Same reason Pittman was. Whatever he was doing, after he got canned, they needed someone else to do it. And she can sing backups and harmonies, something I dare say not one person from the Pittman era could do properly.

starlight Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Nice banner. It should have been only Axl Slash and Duff though. I can't stand the view of the clown up there 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highvoltage Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 She's a beast. She absolutely kills the backing vocals on Chinese Democracy! Check them out, she goes a whole octave up above Axl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t get people who think they as a fan have a right to tell a member of a band what they should or should not be doing, what their place is within the band, what they should wear and what option of an in ear monitor or headphones to wear. Are you a member of the band? Are you involved in band business decisions? Maybe if you ask someone within the band they might tell you what Mellissa adds to the band as what she does only affects these people. What is a rock band by the way. I thought rock n roll was about expressing who you are as a person but you seem to think it’s defined to a curtain visual look. Did you think the same thing when Axl wore bike shorts? Was that the look that fits a rock band or do you think Axl wanted to wear something comfortable at the time that suited his needs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
