Italy has about 60 million population, so at a worst case 15% rate that means "only" 9 million people will die within weeks.

For entire Europe with about 750 million people, that would be about 110 million deaths.

The virus only has a 2% mortality rate

Most people just become asymptomatic carriers or have mild symptoms

No you haven't. Even by your own numbers you've got something just a little bit apocalysey for upto 15% of people infected.

Almost all of the people who have died so far have been over the age of 50, smokers, or immunocompromised

If you can't handle bad pneumonia, you're a goner

That's a good research project for me - at what age did Dan McCafferty start singing "Love Hurts" at a lower tuning

EDIT: By 1979 Dan was already singing it at lower tuning - he was only 33 then

Axl was 33 in 1995...he started having a lot of trouble singing around then

Imagine how Chinese Democracy and the 2001-2002 shows would have sounded if Axl had tuned everything down. Maybe he would have used rasp?

Slash has always said he likes to keep busy. If axl has no intention of doing any studio work then slash has 2 choices,

Gnr touring or reconvening with SMKC.

They could get the new STP guy to do a Velvet Revolver tour

Axl being awesome in ACDC has NOTHING to do with voice registers, it has to do with being an employee of Angus Young and being out of his comfort zone. A.k.a "something to prove"

Yeah I think Axl said one of the ACDC guys' wives made him ditch the sunglasses

I am a new fan based on a friends 87-93 recordings, the current situation is just so sad.  Surely Duff and Slash and everyone else involved can hear the deterioration in Axl's voice, why on earth does nobody say anything...it makes me wonder at Axl's mental health.

My first exposure to the band was the 2002 VMA's, so imagine my surprise when I googled "Guns N' Roses" and saw a completely different looking man

My immediate thought - "what the fuck happened to this guy in the last 8 years?"

And down the rabbit hole I went

Scom.  Oops. I think axl sang that well in 2006 in LA. Other than that, never post ‘93.

Show's over, no more GNR

Were there any positive posts?

Nope

The editor did a good job hiding Axl's dancing

I'm impressed with the editing

I like how last night there were hundreds of members, and now for the broadcast there's like 30 people logged on

Axl Rose is not a superhero from a Marvel movie, he is a normal person like you and i, he will get older, and won't return to the Axl Rose seen in the past when much younger, both in a physical form or via his vocals. 

Robert Plant - Age 57 (2005)Paul Rodgers - Age 57 (2005)
Brian Johnson - Age 57 (2004)

As a fan I wish they wouldn’t broadcast the highlights. It’s cruel.

They might not, depending on how bad it was

They could get away with some short clips and then show more of the newer acts

Axl should have just dedicated KOHD to Kobe or mentioned him during the song

Graphic is super tacky

I've already bookmarked the Twitter string "axl fat" for tomorrow

https://twitter.com/search?q=axl fat&src=typed_query&f=live

They should do the Rolling Stones thing and put a "Deep Cuts" text-voting thing on the jumbotron before every show

Text 1 to 5435 for Perfect Crime

Text 2 to 5435 for Think About You

Text 3 to 5435 for Oh My God

Kobe dedication? 

The flying piano's back?

Axl looks like Tim Robbins, just noticed it

Ha! The stream I watched briefly had some guy talking a lot through it and I heard him say “I think it looks like Axl has lost a bit of weight”.  The guy wouldn’t shut up. 

The kind of person who would livestream a GNR concert is someone who’s a megafan like we all are

Expect singalongs and dumb comments

this is iike a rehearsal with an audience

Axl should do the first shows after a lay-off sitting down 

Since he’s dead set against rehearsing, it’d be the easiest way for him to get the songs down again

"All I Ever Wanted" could be an alternate title for "Better"?

"all that I wanted" is a lyric in Better so...who knows?
