But it does sound like Axl's voice. How do you debunk that?
-
Does anyone know what this is? I'm 99.9 % convinced it's Axl, and I guess it's the only leak I didn't know about. It sounds awesome.

There will never be a better opener than Jungle, it's as simple as that.

I remember something like that.. But that was some random vocal coach from South America or something? can't remember where i've read it though... And he had only some theories about what COULD be the answer to his vocal change. I doubt Axl's own vocal coach would talk openly about his voice in media.
Possibly. A former / short-term coach maybe. It would definitely make sense, because the difference is blatant.
-
There was a long article on some forum which was supposedly from his voice coach or something like that. The person said Axl had surgery of vocal chords before the 2011 touring year started. So that would make sense. Anyway, I can't assess its credibility, and also the article disappeared quickly, as somebody didn't like it apparently. It may have been at htgth.

If you're saying with the exception of Freddie, then your answer is simply no.
I know, but not really. Freddie just sort of stands above it all. He's untouchable, like Elvis...

There are many, many aspects in this, but all in all – and with the exception of Freddie – I think... YES.

IIRC Perfect Crime was there already in 2002. I honestly cannot imagine Axl singing it back then.

He did that before Coma on Live Era too!

YC Fast version? Wow.

Angus is awesome, as usual.
As for the setlist complainers - the band plays for the people attending the shows, not for internet jerks. And since they hardly play any single place twice (Sydney etc. being an exception), there is no point in complaining unless you actually attend both of these shows (and even then it's meant for different people due to high selling numbers rather than for the same crowd imo). I think we had a bunch of amazing surprises last year, and their catalogue ain't endless. They are still reintroducing themselves to the world, just be glad we have what we have. Isn't that amazing? Who would have thought?

Stay of Execution starts tomorrow.

I think he just wants higher selling numbers. As it was said, nothing new we wouldn't already know or suspect. I don't trust this guy. Besides, who has he spoken with? Axl? Duff? Slash? Their wives? Didn't think so.
-
To me, it was clearly about Axl. I mean, I love Slash and all, but that came later. It were two things: Axl's versatile voice with rasp and many layers/positions, and then him walking on a stage, swearing and smoking a cigarette (which I later figured was Paris 92). I was ten and have been a fan ever since.
-
It's definitely not just black and white. I obviously love the reunion thing and consider it absolutely paramount they release something they made together, whether just new stuff or a mix with something they did in the 90s. Well duh.
On the other hand, it would be definitely shame if we didn't get to hear what Axl and the NuGuys were doing in the 2000s. I hope he releases the "CD II" somehow, some day. It could be a box set and these songs could be marked as Axl & Friends, Axl solo or whatever. The fact he may not be looking back right now does not mean he is supposed to just throw away all he did in the ChinDem sessions.
However, it's true I can't stand watching any videos from that era any more now.- 2

quite off?
couldnt pull sweet child o mine?
are you completely NUTS?
this is one one the most magnificent performances EVER by a rock singer (and a rock band)
(in the final part of the show in a very hot and umid january nigh at the very peak of the summer heat in Rio de Janeiro)
oh, and have you checked how axl sounded a few months later mid-year 1991?
do you think that "the touring" is clearly noticeable?
I didn't say it was bad, but come on. He is leaving out many notes and finesses, the end is not as good as in different shows, the voice sometimes struggles... Still not saying it blew.
Anyway, I guess our POV just differs here. If I want to see some of his "most magnificent performances", I'll watch some 1992/93 show, especially Argentina. Of course, some of the 1991 ones were great too, and I still like Rio, it's just he wasn't at his best there IMO, that's all. -

In January 1991, Rock in Rio, Axl hadnt toured for 2 years and hadnt sing a full concert for more than a year and he sounded TERRIFIC
Not really, no. Especially the first night (I think) he was quite off. He couldn't pull SCOM, there were omitted parts etc. Still an awesome performance, of course, however, the pause was clearly noticeable.

TIL: First off, the drums are artificially added, they weren't on the original leak. Secondly, the snippet used to be a tad longer. Thirdly, this is prior to CD release, one of the demos, so definitely not 2008/09. And yes, it's much better than the actual album vesion.

I don't really miss anyone, but would love to see Matt Sorum or Izzy there doing some guest appearances. That would be cool. I'm glad Steven was there, but don't think they'll give him any more space than that we've seen. Now if they do a new album, they definitely should invite him to play some stuff there too.

Slash posting the old GNR logo on his twitter for Coachella - at that moment we finally knew it was real.
First pic with Axl standing next to Slash in Troubadour posted online.
And of course the shows. Coma etc. -
Also this one. The building up...

pic is awesome

Agreed. But this guy is pretty serious, he is spot on with 100% of the concerts. He announced the brazillian shows before the band, and even the venue for Rio, when it was still as TBD on the website haha
I have no problem with that, I was just reacting to this "100%" thing. Even if it turns out to be real (and why the hell not), it is not 100% as of now.

No concert is 100% confirmed unless it's confirmed through GNR's web or social media.
I hope they are gonna be there, of course.

To me, it sounds like the best impression of Axl I've heard to date...
