I haven't even listened to any clip from the first two shows yet so I'd like to think I'm an unbiased judge here, so how exactly are people who are disappointed with Axl's vocal performance preventing you from enjoying the shows? They're of the opinion that it was poor, but you think it was great, so the opinions differing from yours shouldn't be able to affect your enjoyment level. This is a forum where everyone should be free to express their opinions on GNR related matters, even if those opinions aren't positive. Also, lumping together the people who are disappointed with the performances with the select amount of people who criticize Axl's fashion choices is incredibly lazy and unjustified.

Those people who are always disappointed with Axl's performance, are the same people who complain and critisize everything he does.

Link me to one where he is present since the summer tour. Its whatever, i love the dude, but its common knowledge he half asses preparation. He didnt for ACDC and look how that turned out You don't know the extent to which he does or doesn't. I know you asked for an example from the summer leg, but records of soundchecks are few and far between in general. At the very least, i do remember him doing a soundcheck prior to the Troubadour gig, and here's a video of him involved prior to the Las Vegas gig: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then if it's not Axl, will be Frank or 4tus. Sometimes Slash too..! "Oh he missed the tone".. I can't laugh with all these anymore. Seriously, get over it and let us enjoy THIS. No on is affecting your enjoyment of "this", if that is the case, then maybe you should not come on here and read people's opinions that differ from yours. And, I just read another post of yours...I do not always "complain" about what Axl does and criticize him. In fact, I have very supportive of him and gone out of my way to argue with people that he hasn't been "Mickey" and all this other nonsense. The fact is you are on a god damn internet forum and this is a place where...guess what! People express their opinions *gasp* and surprisingly, people will probably have different opinions than yours.

AlexC Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 It's awesome when they occasionally throw in Sorry or Catcher. They should have them permanently in the set and alternate between the two show to show. Same with OTGM and Michelle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those people who are always disappointed with Axl's performance, are the same people who complain and critisize everything he does. People criticsize his vocal perfromance because it's weak; not because they enjoy nailing Axl at every twist or turn. If Axl came out and nailed it, those same people would say he sounded great. There's a difference between negativity for the sake of negativity and negativity with reason. Axl has always been terrible on the first nights of tour legs. I'm sure he can hear it in his voice, when he's having a hard night, so surely at some point he must have registered the concept that "if I warm up properly for a few weeks, when it comes to the tour I'll be able to sing better from day one". Now I said 'surely' but as is the case, he definitely hasn't come to that conclusion. Also, the set. I'm not expecting a complete overhaul, but for them to add in 1-3 different songs? not much of request, they could work three songs up in a soundcheck. Very easy, they just don't want to add anything else, because they get away with the same set night in, night out. The tour should be rename ...Business as usual. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goneshootin Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 After watching the YCBM video I'm tempted to trade my Dublin tickets for a date later in the tour. I won't claim to know a thing about preparation and technical aspects of singing but to my untrained ear he sounds like crap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
