  1. I dont have any low standards. Just because a performance isn´t perfect is not a reason to act as if it was the end of the world. If you want perfect vocals you should listen to a cd instead.

    It's not about perfection, it's about sounding moderately decent, which he didn't do. The irony is that he got an award named after one of the most formidable voices in rock history. Sometimes i wonder if GNR fans have ever heard or gone to other concerts that are not GNR. Being a live show should never be an excuse for a true musician.

    The overall performnace was ok and it's sad to say that the worst part was Axl, especially because Ashba was there trying to figure out his guitar too.

    Axl deserves that award because even though his voice is not at its best right now his is one of the best voices of rock history too. And yes, I have attended many shows that are not GNR and some were good and some weren´t. I tend to value a show as a whole not just the lead singer´s performance.

  2. Jesus I read some of the comments from tha last pages and I was scared as fuck.I expected a disaster. I have watched the performance in youtube and all I can say is that you exaggerate it all. Sure Axl was out of breath in some parts and that the vocals weren´t perfect but the show wasn´t as bad as you guys say.

    He was out of breath for all the fast songs and vocals "not perfect" is a cute description. If you enjoyed it, good for you but you have really low standards.

    I dont have any low standards. Just because a performance isn´t perfect is not a reason to act as if it was the end of the world. If you want perfect vocals you should listen to a cd instead. I´ve seen this same speech over the years and with this I don´t mean I applaud the mistakes but as far as I can remember Axl´s performances have never been perfect. He had good shows and bad shows that´s all.

  3. I always said that neither Axl was so bad nor Slash was so good and here´s the proof of it. The one who always makes the effort to appear as the cool one, the bigger man, the mature one has finally shown his true colours. I´ve always thought he was a passive aggressive and a two sided person whereas Axl is blunt and whether you like him or not at least he doesn´t hide who he is.

    This DVD stuff has been planned for a long time and it was public knowledge so why wait until everything is set and ready to block it all? What has Slash to gain with it all? Because if the intention is to piss Axl off he has failed since the ones who are clearly fucked up are us, the fans.

  4. Can someone translate this properly? I believe it says that the promoters may be investigated for possible fraud for not announcing a venue but continuing to sell tickets to the event....

    Profeco alerta por posible fraude por el Hell & Heaven Fest

    El delegado de la Profeco dijo que sólo podrían actuar contra los promotores del evento, con denuncias de por medio

    El delagado de la Procuraduría Federal del Consumidor (Profeco) Jorge Hernández, dijo que quienes comparon boletos para el Hell & Heaven Metal Fest 2014 podrían estar ante un posible fraude, ya que los promotores siguen vendiendo boletos para el evento sin tener una nueva sede definida.

    El funcionario exhortó a los organizadores a definir lo antes posible el lugar donde se realizará el evento y a los consumidores interponer quejas para poder investigar la situación.

    "Nosotros exhortamos de igual forma a los consumidores a que observen este detalle, porque pudiera ser en un momento presumiblemente algún fraude", dijo Hernández en entrevista para Radio Fórmula.

    El delegado apuntó que la Procuraduría sólo puede intervenir contra los organizadores en caso de que se presenten quejas.

    Por su parte los promotores del Hell & Heaven Metal Fest pidieron paciencia a las personas que compraron su boleto para el festival, que fue cancelado en su sede original, Texcoco.

    "Banda, les pedimos paciencia, el HH14 se va a llevar a cabo en tiempo y forma. Paciencia por favor. #HHmásFUERTEquenunca!!!", subieron a la cuenta oficial de Twitter del evento.

    Google translated:

    PROFECO alert for possible fraud by Hell & Heaven Fest

    The delegate said PROFECO could only act against the promoters of the event, with complaints by consumers

    The delagado the Federal Consumer (PROFECO) Jorge Hernandez, who said comparon tickets to Hell & Heaven Metal Fest 2014 could be facing a possible fraud, as developers continue to sell tickets to the event without having defined a new headquarters .

    The official urged the organizers as soon as possible to define the location of the event and bring consumer complaints to investigate the situation will be made.

    "We equally urge consumers to observe this detail because it might be at a time presumably any fraud," Hernandez said in an interview with Radio Formula.

    The delegate noted that the attorney can only act against the organizers if complaints arise.

    Meanwhile promoters Hell & Heaven Metal Fest asked patience to people who bought their ticket for the festival, which was canceled in its original location, Texcoco.

    "Banda, we ask for patience, the HH14 be carried out in a timely manner. Patience please. # HHmásFUERTEquenunca!" Climbed to the official Twitter account of the event.

    The article basically says that the promoters might be committing a fraud because they keep selling tickets for the Festival without saying where the new place is. They haven´t found a new place for the festival yet and they keep selling tickets but the authorities can´t act against the promoters because the people who are buying the tickets haven´t sued the promoters since they aren´t aware that the promoters might be committing a fraud.

    The only thing they have done is go to twitter to ask people to have some patience and that the festival will take place.

  5. Didn't Axl's people block Slash from releasing GNR tunes on his DVDs? Seems like one of those eye-for-an-eye things to me.

    Yes, and this is just one more proof that we can never say "I would never do this or that". Maybe this is Slash´s way to tell Axl to fuck off but it is also a way to show that he is doing the same he criticized before. You know, Axl this Axl that...and he is having the same behaviour now.

    He´s always appeared like the cool one, the bigger man, the one who cares for the fans...go figure.

    And at the end of the day, we, the fans, are the ones who pay for it all and suffer the consequences.

  6. Nice pic. Axl is so badass, the guy is the last real true rockstar alive, no doubt.

    What's the difference when Axl does this and someone like Justin Bieber does it?

    Please, don´t write Axl and that stupid kiddo in the same sentence, don´t even try to compare them...

    Axl and Justin's sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G. Please tell me what the harm is in writing their names in the same sentance? You'd have no problem if I said "Axl's the king and Bieber's a cheap whore". That would be wrong though. Axl is no monarch and I don't think Justin is selling his body for small cash.I'm not comparing them really, I ask a legit question.

    I really don't understand why it's badass when Axl's doing it and that Justin would be called a cunt if he did it. Don't get me wrong, I dislike Justin Bieber as much as the next person but judging them differently for the same thing is just double standard.

    I was joking dude but now you ask I didn´t even know that kido had a similar picture taken. And to answer your question, Axl´s behaviour whether good or bad, idiotic or badass comes naturally whereas that kido tries too hard to look cool or badass or whatever.
