bumblecool Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Chris Pitman..what a rare photo. Axl playing guitar on 'Maddy"live in Rio 2001, He wrote all the gtr parts, including lead gtr. I recorded him playing lots of awesome guitar parts back then, I don't think people know what an original and cool guitar player he really is,....those were fun times.Also, Buckethead and Paul Tobias are truly awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolRanchDressing Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I hope he plays more. It should be a crime to keep those talents all to himself when the world so desperately needs great music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seely Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Axl also wrote the guitar part for Shotgun Blues, Dead horse and also played on Mad-at-nascar in Vegas 2001.Played on TWAT too.Judging by the 'Dead Horse' video, he used to play guitar a lot for that song during the '93 shows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolRanchDressing Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I wonder if he was discouraged from playing guitar by other guitarists who wanted to protect their time in the limelight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 He's said numerous times he's not really good at it. It's cool to see him playing it, but I prefer Axl running' around and stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 They could do a run of songs live where Axl is on guitar. Dead Horse, Shotgun blues, There was a time, Madagascar. The Axl EP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 They could do a run of songs live where Axl is on guitar. Dead Horse, Shotgun blues, There was a time, Madagascar. The Axl EP.in a band with 3 guitarists, you want Axl to play guitar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillageGorillaHead Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I think the main point is he WROTE lead and other guitar parts for Madgascar.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgy Zhukov Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Duff said something how Axl was better than Izzy. Or maybe Axl became the new Izzy when it came to feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I think the main point is he WROTE lead and other guitar parts for Madgascar..Indeed, which is very cool. I love Fortus' leads throughout the song, especially during the "If we ever find it's true..." bit, so kudos to Axl for writing those.I must concur with one notion raised in this thread - bring back Dead Horse!According to the UYI booklet though, Slash actually played the intro on the album. It's fun seeing Axl jam it with them in the 1993 performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailaway Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I think the main point is he WROTE lead and other guitar parts for Madgascar..Exactly! This blows up the arguement that the "S" word was responsible for every guitar melody,every nuance,note and riff. Gotta love Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voodoochild Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I think the main point is he WROTE lead and other guitar parts for Madgascar..Yeah, and also some leads on TWAT (I think the lead behind his own vocals on the 2nd verse). I wonder if he actually recorded some lf those leads and if they made it to the final version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandallFlagg Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Of course we don't know what a cool and original guitar player he is since we've barely heard him play the damn instrument Pitman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimera Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 What is a Slash? Is that some kind of high gravity beer?Paul Tobias co-wrote IRS, and Back Off Bitch. Tobias is GN'R. Axl just wrote the gay pride ballads. Plus Tobias is Latin for badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themadcaplaughs Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Besides Axl, all the existing comments we have on Paul Tobias (from Slash, Duff, and Matt) are all so negative; it actually caught me completely off guard to hear someone describe Paul as "awesome." On another note, does anyone know why he went from being called Paul Hughe to Paul Tobias? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
