They are becoming very predictable on & off at set times everyone knows the set list. It's all becoming a bit stale To be honest, the only ones who knows the set list are hardcore fans, like people on this forum. 95 % of the people on the concerts+ have no idea what the set list is Edited June 6, 2018 by SuperYlvis 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl4yer Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Axl vocals will surely be better but question is Are they gonna be good? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFD5 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 If either the sound or Axl aren't right tonight we might see Axl kicking off. Tbh that may give the tour a bit of edge because at the minute the tour is becoming rather predictable. Everyone knows the set list, they come on & leave on time. It's too clinical the tour needs a bit of edge a bit of uncertainty. At one time Guns were called "the most dangerous band in the world" At the moment they risk being called "the most punctual & clinical band in the world" I say bring back the edginess what do you guys think ?

Kula2006 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Don't expect any wonders tonight - it always took axl 3 or 4 nights to improve - the maximum tonight will be a much better sound and slightly improvements here and there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THELINESMAN Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Axl's vocals sounded like he had a cold/sore throat in Berlin, like at the Bridge School Benefit concert. That combined with not being able to hear himself properly/shouting to try and hear himself contributed to the over distortion resulting in cracks/dropping high notes. If he still has a cold he won't be much better tonight. But hopefully by Download cold/throat problems will have gone and he will be on top form again with something to prove. That's the kindest interpretation. The worst is that he either hasn't rehearsed for a while so his vocal muscles aren't used to hitting those high notes any more or he has worn his voice out with the epic power vocals he used in AC/DC and needs a good rest. I hope it's just a cold and that tonight he will kick ass! Either way, GNR songs are some of the hardest songs to sing ever. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps there should be a 87-93 subforum where you could comment on those performances only. Everyone has seen what they're capable of during that period of time. I'd go further and say most of us are here, because of that. It's 2018, people change, drives change, voices change and attitudes change. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Axl does have another bad one, alot will depend on the slash factor for sure. Anyway tonight we just need to see some form of improvement, even if it is just Axl making it through the night without another vocal disintegration like at Berlin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranich Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) Axl is absent from the soundcheck according to GNR IG story, so I would not count for any improvement.

Ninjapie24 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 What songs are they playing during the soundcheck? I saw the poster of the alternates for Berlin and I’m wondering if the interesting ones (SOYL, OMG, and Slither) are being played at soundcheck.

At this point we don't really know, so its really cheap and easy give someone crap like this when we don't know jack shit why he wasnt there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame that he doesn't give a flying fuq and still refuses to rehearse : / Sound check, rehearsal, and vocal exercising/training are 3 different things, you’re confusing them. Also, he was there yesterday afaik. Anyway, the fact whether or not he comes to a sound check does not affect his vocal performance very much – that depends (among other things, of course) on him exercising, which is done in privacy (he’s also talked about warm-ups etc). You don’t seriously think that having sung 3 songs on an empty stage a few hours before a show can significantly change his vocal performance for the night, do you? 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
