DarkLotus1111 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) Steven Alder will never be as awesome as Josh Freese or Brain on drums. Axl looked cool as hell with Charles Manson merch in 1993 than in 1992 wearing tights. Atlas was underwhelming Steven Alder's side project is cringey cock rock garbage One In A Million is a gem in GNR history (way better than Estranged) TB doesn't deserve any of the hate Edited January 12, 2020 by DarkLotus1111 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best way to get me to lose interest in a band is to put out the same record, especially if every record is about drugs, alcohol, and partying. GN'R didn't do that with Appetite but I swear to God, every band that plays in the GN'R style tries to portray this hardcore image and they end up coming across as try-hards. Yes, it's fun to get really drunk but when every other song is about whiskey and women, it's boring as shit. I am with you, however I just wish the next evolution of image following Appetite didn't include hot pants 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every song is about one of the two, whiskey or women--or both. Example, "Whiskey If You Were a Woman"😄 Tonight The Bottle Let Me Down ... There's A Tear In My Beer. It's the better era of country. I'm so glad GNR made it out of the appetite era alive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The screams differ in length and intensity every night.. They sounded natural and easy in 2016 and sounded more forced (and shorter) since 2017/18 Axl deserves to get shit for many things, but lip-syncing ain't one of them 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea fair enough, I can see why... but for me it's a good 'transition' song between Back Off Bitch and Nov Rain. It wouldn't really work anywhere else in the tracklist. The live versions are always good, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tho I thought the Live and Let Die screams may have been " helped" around 2012?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k12 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 I really couldn't care less about any new music and I am afraid more new songs is just going to dilute the concerts in the future as they are going to play a few less older songs to add in the newer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ArthurMorgan Posted January 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) Spaghetti Incident should get more attention live IMO. I'm not talking about adding more covers to their sets, but rather switch out some NITL covers with songs like Down On The Farm, Ain't It Fun and Human Being. Edit: Human Being might not fit Axl's voice too well these days, but the other two should be very OK. Maybe even bring in Duff on the chorus of Ain't It Fun, idk..

Towelie Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) Axl Rose is too self conscious about his weight/appearance to do normal band things like music videos and photoshoots and this could possibly be the biggest obstacle in Axl releasing new music.

It's a shame. But I can't really blame him for it. He was a beautiful man - at least to those that find the more androgynous men attractive - and he very much knew this. When people tell you that you're good looking enough times, it's very hard not to become affected by it: "Axl became vain, worrying about dyeing his eyebrows and eyelashes and going on prescription drugs to for his hair and skin. He had his teeth fixed. He went on all-sushi diets" - Colleen Combs to Spin, 1999. Seeing your looks fade like that must be a real bummer. It happens to everyone, but for some it hits harder. It's easy for me to say, but he should man the fuck up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
