Can you count the amount of shows he played for each band? If so, then you will realize the stupidity your posting presents. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's awesome that Axl sang with Billy. Axl looks awesome, so I wonder if it was planned? Weird Axl didn't post on his twitter account? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Just watched the videos on youtube.com Awesome! Loved Axl as always. He looked and sounded great. So what he sang "Highway to Hell" he did sing for AC/CD, so I think it was cool. Maybe singing a GNR song would have cost Billy too much money? lol Anyway, wish I would have been there.

Lies They Tell Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 This was all really cool! Hope we get some even better quality videos at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colonizedmind Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 (edited) Nice little surprise and Axl sounding decent ! Bodes well for him not being Aw-struck and rusty at the start of the EURO Leg! Clearly an appearance like this signals he's in a happy, confident place, since it's extremely rare for him to do this... The AC/DC stint has done wonders for him, a confident Axl is what we need and want - Good things will follow...

Yep- there are advantages to being a worker bee sometimes. With great power comes great responsibility and all that shit. It's good to see him happy and branching out, and I think he finally feels... respected? Appreciated? Which must be nice after all these years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silent Jay Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Big Shot was awesome. Billy Joel is a legend and one of the greatest of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 19 hours ago, Eddie Money said: I feel like there is a part in Slash's book where he writes about Billy Joel coming backstage at the Use Your Illusion tour. I thought he wrote about how much a Axl loves Billy, The Eagles, and ELO but I could be mistaken. It's been awhile since I picked it up and I don't retain much from books. I suppose it was a learning disability that followed me into adulthood. Its good to see Axl called upon to take a guest spot at a big show. Billy Joel always said that One In a Million was an interesting song and praised Axl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like seeker, big shot suits his low voice and he sounds great and requires seemingly little to no effort from him. exactly i cant believe that there is no one telling him something like "hey axl, your low voice is pure gold, why dont you do a fucking full album with it?" i also cant believe that for the entire duration of axl solo career (the yes-men era) there was one telling him something like "hey axl, dont you notice that your clean voice is pure garbage and annoying"? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swedish Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Axl's voice seemed to be in great condition last night. I'm more than excited for the next NITL leg! Would be nice if Axl and Duff noted that Billy Joel let his fans decide two of the songs that was in the set, would love to see GN'R do this! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I kind of understand why Billy did not want to perform any GNR song. AC/DC classics suit him better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
