Eddie Money

I'm good with this tune. I like Chris Stapleton and he's probably the most universally appreciated popular music guy today, especially since he performed the anthem at the Super Bowl last year. Getting him to play or sing on anything automatically generates good publicity.

Smart post. Sometimes I forget that a large number of members on here weren't living the 80's and may lack firsthand contextual knowledge.

I love this band and saw my 25th show in Biloxi last night. But that doesn’t mean that I can’t be objective here. I agree with at @KeyserSoze Axl must have the sound engineer adjusting his mic volume to hide his voice during the rough patches. Axl would lash-out and someone would get fired if it were 1992 and what happened with Axl’s vocals last night occurred during a performance. it wasn’t just Axl’s vocals though. I felt that the guitar volume levels were poorly monitored which led to too loud or too soft solos throughout the night. Nothing seemed mixed properly. I was surprised to hear a previous poster mention that he heard a sound check. Maybe the sound guys were so busy trying to hide Axl’s mistakes they forgot to monitor the volume levels of the two guitars.

I searched the forum for posts about this book and was surprised to find no comments about this book. It’s a great read (or listen, I bought it on Audible). Beginning on chapter 72, The author talks about his time working for Axl beginning at rehearsals for the Las Vegas HOB New Year’s show and Rock in Rio in 2000. The author gives an interesting behind the scenes insight on how things were back then. https://www.amazon.com/Memoir-Roadie-Weiland-Carpenters-Drinks-ebook/dp/B08F78FKY7/ref=nodl_?dplnkId=d7f2719f-6fbc-4947-bcf5-06e905cc5960
