So much energy that they upstaged everyone. You will never see AC/DC do a ballad. It's sad to see GN'R fans saying that, or maybe I'm not even surprised because it's embarrassing. Ride On is very similar to Patience. Edited July 13, 2017 by Silent Jay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or he's wrong. Irregardless Tokyo show ran longer and there is IEM audio of Axl knowingly trying to break the record at that show. Ok, i only counted the real guns n roses 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't create any genre. Rock n roll, specifically hard rock was alive and thriving long before them. 3 hours ago, WhenYou'reTalkinToYourself said: So what? Most of their songs sound the same. GNR has a very small catalogue compared to ACDC, but it's much more versatile. ACDC was only good for creating "high energy rock n' roll" songs. Ok, but nothing more than this. Where is a song like Patience for example? But thats the thing with AC/DC. While most of the hard rock bands from late 70s were doin mellow prog psychodelic influenced stuff, AC/DC came out with the hungry, dirty and fast paced hard rock that would later be the main formula for GNR. All their songs sound a like? GREAT. If I want to listen to something different then I'll look for another band, they dont need a fuckin patience.

DieselDaisy Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Can you just imagine what would be said on the internet, if it existed in 1992, about the Paris Pay-Per-View nonetheless, Quote I do not want 100 year old Tyler and Perry turning up with their boring Aerosmith songs. I do not want to hear Lenny Kravitz and Slash's generic hard rock song. I come here for Guns N' Roses' songs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they would never do a song like Hells Bells in a GNR show, but they could play at least You shook me for example. It would have been a far better choice. So what? Most of their songs sound the same. GNR has a very small catalogue compared to ACDC, but it's much more versatile. ACDC was only good for creating "high energy rock n' roll" songs. Ok, but nothing more than this. Where is a song like Patience for example? There are the ballads: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WxzZHQHpuM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEX2u5q7J7o They don't have many, but they can do them. And if you ever bothered to listen through their whole catalogue, you would've noticed that their albums are quite different from era to era. Not to mention that Angus is a guitar genius. Also, Riff Raff is pretty much an AC/DC classic and quite popular among fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to talk with someone who is delusional. Im not trying to disrespect AC/DC or not give them their due, but you are over-inflating them quite extensively. It's cool if you like them and they are a favorite, but you are giving them credit for a whole that just isn't accurate.

Popular Post willl Posted July 14, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2017 Huge thanks to Nightrain fanclub for my ticket to this gig Melissa looked pretty shocked at McBobs intro..... "Get your fingers outta that dike" Some guy in the golden circle collapsed right next to us when Guns started playing Coma so I missed the whole song. At first everyone thought he'd just drunk too much, but then he couldn't get up and it got pretty scary to be honest. Huge credit to the Dutch fans who immediately formed a human shield around the guy to prevent him being trampled. It took us a few minutes to get securities attention because everyone had their hands in the air rocking out whilst we were all frantically waving for help The paramedics had to push through the crowd just to get to us, really hope he was okay. I'll post some pics tomorrow 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) 11 hours ago, WhenYou'reTalkinToYourself said: Acdc is no more metal than GNR. Although AC/DC is not metal, it's more linked to this genre than GnR are (I'm referring mainly to the Brian Johnson era). Every hardcore metal fan I've known likes Back In Black and stuff AC/DC did after that, but quite a few of them don't like Appetite (and even more the Illusions, needless to say). And AC/DC fans themselves, as far as other bands go, are more into metal bands like Iron Maiden than GnR. I think this says something. Part of it has to do with the macho aspect, as well as with that AC/DC, compared to GnR, have been more about flawless technical playing than rawness, at least live. It has also to do with the themes and imagery used, ie. the devil/hell related stuff. Back in the 80s AC/DC were among the objects of "metal is satanic" tales and stuff like playing vinyl records backwards to hear "secret messages" (of course today only Alan Niven believes this shit about AC/DC ). GnR have the sculls etc, but this imagery is not limited to metal. Edited July 14, 2017 by Blackstar added 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcon Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Sorry to chime in both off topic and uninvited, but if I may regarding AC/DC: their first six albums seem very close to a perfect body of work to me. At most a handful of individual songs are misses and the albums are otherwise dense with quality; and there is significant variety including fun boogie dance numbers, hard driving mean rock songs, crowd pleasing anthems, slow and introspective bluesy ballads, and some more uptempo wailing madman blues. Following those albums, I will concede, they did gradually get less interesting. But that is still six albums 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very unlikely guitar melodies for DC and Angus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnrkoncerti Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Well I watched them AcDC twice in Belgrade anf in Vienna 2016 with Axl... All I can say,they are amazing band,very powerfull live but I felt more energy on Guns show,and I think GNR had more hardcore fans (people who knows almost all songs) than ACDC... Again I will said they are amazing and legendary band,but for me GNR are much much better band... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
