Amir Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Wonder if Axl'll turn up? Seems the SA tour will have come to an end by then, Bumble's already looking at doing a gig in Copenhagen on the 28th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems the SA tour will have come to an end by then, Bumble's already looking at doing a gig in Copenhagen on the 28th.They are set to play as well as Axl receiving the award, so if it's booked then I surely hope Axl will show up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Cool! Do bands usually get to play more than 1 song at this show? Is this one live streamed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
there is no dana only zool Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 So awesome for Axl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2112 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Axl getting the Ronnie james Dio award??? I mean, it's great. I hope he uses it as a kick up the arse to do something... ya know to achieve within his chosen field!*release new music (promote it), play exhilarating shows (rehearse it, be professional)* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Updated the OP with info and links since it seems like this is official and legit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2112 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Cool! Do bands usually get to play more than 1 song at this show? Is this one live streamed?Yeah Metallica played for about 20-40 mins last year. Wouldn't expect new material at this one, but maybe it is a good place to air it, even if it seems like a tough crowd.

IncitingChaos Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 That's awesome! Cool to see Axl recognized. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magisme Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I guess the hilarity of his receiving an award named after Dio is lost on people with music tastes like members of this forum have.Love you guys, but 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maynard Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Cool, but I thought Axl was not a fan of these ceremonies... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) Cool, but I thought Axl was not a fan of these ceremonies...I think we all know the reason about hof was that they never recognised the new band and it meant sharing a stage with slash.Usually at these awards they have a mix of artists jamming on songs for the finale. Like Slash, dave grohl and lemmy that year.Wonder if Axl and zakk wylde will do something to close the show.

moreblack Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 The last couple of Golden Gods awards have been pretty enjoyable, some great performances. This should be pretty cool, some good performers listed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I always liked this performance: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NGOG Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Considering Axl is generally shunned by corporate rock, this is very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Aren't these usually broadcasted? At least the awards and maybe a performance or two?If so, it would be a great spot to play an old song or two and a NEW song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangoSkank Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Now I really hope the Sao Paulo rumors are true and Axl kills this performance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russel Nash Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) This is great, fucking great. Glad to see things going strong. Hate to say this cos it's been said before, but this is gonna be a great year for us and GNR.GNR begin to rehearse this week right?

Amir Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Now I really hope the Sao Paulo rumors are true and Axl kills this performance.Yeah, otherwise we're looking at The Axl Rose Disaster III :/Seems nearly every pro-shot comes out bad. Only ones from recent memory I can think of that kicked ass were Reading 2010 and Rock Am Ring 2006. While 2006 was a pretty damn good year for Axl vocally, the proshots from Inland Invasion and RIR Lisboa are weak. And just one week after the awful Rio '11 gig Axl turned in a decent performance in Buenos Aires. Performance anxiety? Or just bad luck?

moreblack Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Considering Axl is generally shunned by corporate rock, this is very cool. Yeah, but Revolver is run by the makers of Guitar World, and Guitar World has always been a huge GNR fan, they've had Slash on the cover God knows how many times.

The stakes are (still) way, way high for Axl, so I imagine there's a lot of added pressure for these widely-viewed shows. Another example is easily the VMAs. Out of breath for a three song medley in front of millions, but able to hold long screams during the tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor would they be very willing to honour Axl in the context of his current pursuits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably with it being in LA didn't hurt Axl attending it. Edited February 26, 2014 by dalsh327 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
