  1. The stupid fawk who uploaded this video screwed up the aspect ratio!

    The video is stretched vertical. It looks like the video should have been 16:9.

    Maybe he wanted Axl to look skinny! LMAO

  2. That's why he's the perfect "Slash" replacement!

    What has he wrote/produced in his career that's worth a shit?

    This guy is a fame whore - that's all he cares about.

    He butchers every solo he plays live - I'm not impressed with him at all - he's average.

  3. Yeah, I miss Robin Finck!

    DJ reminds me too much of Slash. It makes GnR again seem like a whore rock band from the '80s. He brings that whole Sixx AM vibe to GnR which is so uncool.

    Let's remember why Axl wanted Robin Finck in the first place:

    1. Because Finck is a genius in creating cutting edge industrial and alternative rock music!

    Because of Finck's credentials, Finck gave GnR more credibility and respect. You may not like NiN music but you sure would not disrespect them.

    With Finck in GnR, it was that same thing. Non-GnR fans have to think twice before dissing GnR once they know Robin Finck - from NiN - was the main guitarist.

    You don't get the same kind of respect with DJ (or Slash for the matter).

  4. haha ... the folks at Yahoo are ones to speak ... they about to go under ... nobody uses yahoo anymore ... nobody cool anyways.

    apparently you care!

    and where is the free press for Slash's solo tour? does anybody even care to talk about them? LOL

    That show RIO is everywhere.. They were palying clips of it on the radio the other day making fun of him. I walked by 3 guys at work today and they were on facebook making fun of Axl and there was some god awful pic of him up there.. Not very good promotion for a tour that no one gives a fuck about anyway.

  5. What I love about this band is that they take the old songs and remove the cheeze and outdated sounds/vibe to them.

    Most of the old songs by today's standard and style, sound cheap, but the band has *modernized* them.

    Frank's drumming definitely makes a huge improvement over Matt's and Steven. He's got more groove and style.

    So here, Estranged-2011 sounds much better than on the album and how it was played live in the past!

  6. Why is it not good to stand in the rain? Because you can get sick!

    Why can you get sick?

    Because being wet with rain makes you cold.

    When you get cold, what happens? You lose your capabilities to function normally.

    Things really started to not go well during November Rain. Why? Because that song required all of Axl's abilities to perform! Play piano and sing! Not only that, Axl had to deal with the rain on the piano. He was also sitting in water!

    Axl is old and not the most fit person in the world. So to claim that the rain did not effect him, is plain ignorance!

    Let's see how well you can sing in the cold heavy rain!

    His voice sucked throughout the show barring a handful of songs, so no he didn't start off well. He certainly started of slightly better, but still not well.

    Plenty of singers have and they didn't decline as much as Axl did. Did the rain effect his memory for his own lyrics?

  7. Some folks have a hard time believing that cold heavy rain can affect a person's singing abilities.

    I agree with what you're saying about the running around and all. But, the point is that cardiovascular conditioning in and of itself does not determine a singer's capacity to properly support their voice with breath.

  8. Axl was 10months younger when he played in Sydney dumbass! LMAO

    Axl didn't have to deal with the weather in Sydney dumbass! LMAO

    Axl had started the tour in Asia before hitting Sydney dumbass! LMAO

    Let's see how well you can do in the heavy rain after 15-minutes dumbass! LMAO

    RIR3: Axl was 10 years younger dumbass!

    I put the BLAME solely on the weather.

    Axl at his age, is not in any shape to put on 2.5 hour show in that kind of weather. Axl started the show off well and he was in great spirit at the start too.

    Axl should have just stayed in his YELLOW raincoat all night!

    I know the old adage of 'Axl gets better as he goes on tour' however, he has never started a tour off THIS bad.

    Even RIR3 he was better vocally and definitely more in condition.

    HE WAS 1000X Better in Sydney only 10 months ago DUMB ASS,

    I put the BLAME solely on the weather.

    Well we now know who won the prize for being the King of Dumb Asses.

  9. hmmm...maybe so that they can still play to big arenas ... and headline big festivals ... and still be able to make records with big distribution deals ...

    those are just a few of the perks of being with [new] GnR

    BAHAHAHA why would the old gnr boys want to play with something like that.. very VERY poor...

  11. Except it is 2011 going on 2012 ... change and adapt or DIE ...

    The new band plays the songs with more fitting to the current times ... with less cheeze ... with less seventies-eighties vibe and sounds.

    For all the technical proficiency of Axl's new lineup, I still think the old band played the old songs better - because they were simply written in that nature. Brownstone, ISE, Jungle, etc. all sound better as raw, gritty, basic and stripped-down tracks. When you have three guitars with insane shred solos and people banging cymbals and so on and so forth the very nature of the songs change. I suppose some people might prefer that, but give me Ritz '88 any day.

    Having said that, the band is solid and the new material and UYI material is more suited towards them.

  12. Folks, Axl clearly is not one of them folks who ages well.

    Sure, maybe if he stopped being a night owl, big eater, and drinker, it will help him stay in shape, but more than anything, it is a genetics issue. Axl clearly does not have the athletic fit genes.

    Because of Axl's shape, he was not equipped to handle the heavy downfall of rain. As the show went on, the rain was clearly having an effect him.

    You try peforming in heavy rain for more than an hour and lets see how well you do!

    And you can't expect that Axl is going to *train* for his concerts, like a boxer trains for his matches months in advance. That's just not him.

    The way Axl prepares for touring is by actually touring. But because Axl did not have to worry about performing any NEW songs, Axl obviously felt it was unnecessary to have warm-up shows like he did in 2006.

    Axl basically was not ready for the unexpected rain. The heavy rain threw Axl off his game.

    But he should have no problem bouncing back.
