For me the best moment of his would be Rock Am Ring 2006

and when I saw him live in 2012.

2001, 2002 (before the tour fell apart), and 2006 were all great years for Axl. 

2009/2010 were really good years vocally.

Axl's first appearance after CD released

Between :32 and :55 Axl decides to sing in a crazy high octave 

along with this little 3 hour 45 min set

Featuring nearly every song on CD

That nightrain part is just badass

[Gordon Comstock]

^Definitely one of the best Nightrain's vocally, not just in the 2000's but one of the best flat out, IMO.

That scream in the beginning...

The only interesting time was 1999 - circa 2004 when you (the fan) were still delusional enough to believe that Axl had a gameplan during all of these silences and perplexing line-up changes, and that he was '''quietly working away in his secret studio on a trilogy of Pink Floyd-esque masterpieces which would change music''. It is no coincidence that that was the period when he had all of these freaks working for him, immensely talented freaks like the Bucket and Robin (who was then a goth character), and that he actually (rather boldly) unveiled new material at Vegas and Rio 3. The period actually began with the release of a new song (''Oh My God'') and a couple of interviews. This all fed the delusion that there was an artistry beneath all of this confusion, an artistry which would be realised one day. Chinese Democracy, unreleased, had this sort of aura and fascination, that sustained one through those sabbaticals like 2003 -05.

Once you discovered he was in reality pulling his plans out of his arsecrack and that he was, far be it from working on 'Led Zeppelin remixed by Trent Reznor'', in actual fact producing dreary clunkers like ''If the World'', ''Scraped'' and ''Shackler's Revenge'', the delusion was shattered!

Everything 2006 - 2015 was sort of aimless in my opinion. I never liked the pointless touring during these periods, although I saw them twice. 2011 -14 was Vegas induced excrement.

Vocally/performance wise, I'd probably go with something from '06. His voice was great and he was in his best shape of the whole nuGNR run.

But I'll go with the comeback show at the House of Blues on New Years 2001. Just the fact that he came out of hiding and performed on stage was a big deal. Plus he actually said, "I have traversed a treacherous sea of horrors to be with you here tonight".

[J Dog]

I really dig the acoustic show at the Rose Bar too.

Honestly GTA SAN Andreas was his most successful stint in those years

I just posted this in another thread and it reminded me how good it was 

2013 Brooklyn Bowl, You're Crazy

2013 was odd bc Axl had really great performances at times after the Australian leg and in the lead up to the Governors Ball Axl was firing on most cylinders, then he got food poisoning before the Brooklyn show but still managed this great performance. Sadly his voice faded going into the Governors ball but not many videos surfaced and they still won over a mostly drunk crowd who seemed to enjoy the set.   

2013 highlights for me...seeing them in Lubbock

Axl could rasp Paradise City

8:13- to finish Axl had his best ending to Estranged I've heard since the 90's

and in Kansas the next night Axl sounded brilliant. 

Odd tour for sure but Axl came alive briefly and brought his best at the time and honestly the venues they played were great! I've never heard the audio so clear at a rock concert, it was crisp and perfectly mixed. 

Thought id add this to the moments since most seem to think 11-14 was full Mickey. 

[IncitingChaos]

Oh also in 2013...

the time Axl introduced us to the "Windy fu*kin jungle" the one place he couldn't wear a hat in 2013

im starting to feel nostalgia for 2013...it wasn't that bad. The crowds were awesome and jungle sounds great

I was at that KC show. I love that Nightrain! Axl was fired the fuck up that night. The last lineup totally won me over that night. They kicked ass that night.

That was a beautiful theatre or whatever they played in that night. I was at the show the night before Kansas and like I said the acoustics in an amphitheater were amazing. It was one of the most underrated legs for nugnr imo. Axl just seemed to be getting better and better with every show. Sucks he got sick at the end. 

But the show I went to convinced me YouTube was lying about Axl's vocals...the audio was so clear and his voice was perfect the whole night

And it had the best tour shirt. I think it was just a black and white shirt, no graphics, just said Guns N Roses with the dates on the back

The Midland Theater in KC. Yes- old theater that has been refurbished. Great place to see shows.

And yes- I have one of those tour shirts. We also went VIP. Got an autographed Axl poster that we got framed. 

We had an absolute fuckin blast that night.

Yea hoping the current lineup can do some smaller US shows. I showed up 30 min before the gates open to my show in 2013 and ran down to the floor and there was a spot on the rail front and center. Made the experience all the better

One of my favourite show on that period as well.
