Val22 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Gilby is not that good nor does he fit GNR at all. I watched old concert footage with Gilby and boy was Izzy missed big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched old concert footage with Gilby and boy was Izzy missed big time.The Tokyo Illusion vids had me convinced Gilby didn't know the songs ( I know he had to learn a fuckload of songs in a short space of time, and in good taste I haven't watched those videos for years) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val22 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I'm sure it was hard learning all the GNR songs in a matter of weeks, but he had no stage presence at all, but then again, Slash and Axl are the ones to hear and see anyway.Slash running into the audience and the security chasing him was so crazy! But that's what made GNR GNR. lolI felt bad for Duff you could see he was hurting bad during that show. His energy level looked way low and he was just looking so damn tired. Axl on the other hand, was awesome. Those little shorts just made me laugh, but that is Axl!I just wish I could have seen those guys back then, but at least they have dvds.

bacardimayne Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Axl chose a Gilby Clarke show as his first performance in 6 years because he knew that he'd be rusty, so he needed to be somewhere where he knew that not a single person would be watching.

EvH Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 If the question was "Should Axl..." I would say yes.But would Axl do it? Don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
