Far from screaming
pure control, beautiful vocals...I could go on and on
Videos like these that keeps my hope up. He has total control and the low/middle parts that a lot of folks say was gone is clearly there.
That second video is just amazing, the sound is really clear.

Perhaps he signed off on some papers before the AC/DC tour that leaves all the recording rights to Angus. So Axl can't know what performance will be released as a live record, so he has to bring it every show just in case.
Maybe he's saving his voice for the 30th AFD anniversary? Maybe he lost it, the AC/DC tour might have done damage...

Too much rasp doesn't fit with november rain.
November Rain always needs alot of rasp, that makes or brakes that song. The "lovers always come...." part in particular needs to be screamed out.

I don't believe that anymore... the ACDC gig ended his voice. Everytime he even tries a higher note with rasp, this strange shit happens
2:00
Heard that yesterday when comparing this with the Huston gig. It hurts just listening to it. I really think he blew his voice with AC/DC. But on the other hand his voice is more nasal now and comes through the mix pretty good, I feel he is really trying not to "mickey it".
You can really tell cause his articulation is way better, not so much open throat like before.

When he takes off his sunglasses at the end and finishes the last few lines like it's no big deal is my favorite part
Exactly!

You know he's going to nail coma when he hits this note at 3:12 and rounds it out into some gritty vocals
But this would be the one to watch if you haven't been watching much, Axl kills the last verse
This video gave me chills, just awesome!

Yeah, noticed this a long time ago. It's a great "mistake" and I play it like that to when I remember.

Been playing drums for 30yrs now. I was a sophomore in High school when the Illusions came out and I bought them both on cassette. First thing I did was lock myself in the basement and learn to play all the songs (except My World lol). I still find myself jamming out on Back off Bitch all these years later some great drum fills in that song especially the beginning. In fact now that I think of it my very first gig was an 8th grade talent show where I played Paradise City. The kids went nuts and at that moment I knew I wanted to be a rocker!
Hell yeah! Been playing drums to GNR songs for about 20 years, Back off Bitch is also a favorite because of the intro. Bad Apples is also a fav.
Just love to play AFD from beginning to end, sometimes I get a bit tired and struggle with Think about You, haha.

The only thing I can think of, is that there's a lovely note being held by Slash behind that vocal line at the end of the solo. Evidently, it would seem it was too much effort to remove the old vocal behind the guitar, and punch in a new vocal. The guitar was probably bleeding into the vocal track through Axl's microphone.
That all I can think of anyway :-)
That sound possible, good theory!

Welcome to the Jungle is another weird one where it will constantly switch from the new vocals and the original vocals.
For example the verse after the first solo:
Welcome to the jungle (new)
Gets worse here everyday, you learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play. If you got a hunger for what you see (original)
Youll take it eventually (new)
You can have anything you want but you better not take it from me, in the jungle (original)
Welcome to the jungle watch it bring you to your (new)
Sha na na na na na na na na knees knees, oh, I wanna watch you bleed (original)
Awesome! Will listen to that when I get off work.

jockethebastard, what a cool screename!
When I first heard Lars Frederiksen and The Bastards I thought it was the coolest name, so I just kind of copied it.

This has been on my mind since i first heard the Live Era record. From the first listen i heard something was wrong, and ofcourse Axl rerecorded most of the vocals for it as probably everybody knows.
The wierdest thing is in Estranged and the last "verses", why the F did he keep "Well I jumped into the river" and not rerecord that?? What went through his mind at that point. When listening to the Tokyo recordings that phrase is a somehow pretty clean compared to the rest, just like the first lines in Don't Cry third verse after Slash solo where he hits his nasal voice and then goes back to a more stressed voice.

He always hits every note. That's never been his problem even on shit performances. Hitting high notes is the one thing he never fails to do.
Hell yeah! Back in 91 when his voice was pretty rough he still hits all notes, never cheat, he alwasy pushes himself.

Former AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd says that he has changed his opinion about Axl Rose fronting the band.
Rudd was ousted from AC/DC when he was sentenced to eight months of home detention by a New Zealand court in 2015 after pleading guilty to charges of threatening to kill and drug possession.
http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/phil-rudd-has-changed-his-mind-about-axl-rose-fronting-acdc-i-thought-he-did-quite-well/Hopefully Angus will pull out the beast in Axl, and Axl will impress him with some much needed rasp and screams.

Is the opening act starting in 2 minutes or is the countdown for when Guns get on stage?
Really stoked and hoping for a new setlist.

it's a fake attitude. It's obvious he's afraid to lose his spot in the band because it's plausible,the same can be said for Fortus. I dont think the both of them are willing to leave GNR soon.
I don't see Franks position being threatened by Adler, because Adler could never pull it off. A couple of songs every show, but I still see Frank keeping his job in the band. Frank is a great drummer i belive, he brings some much needed energy. Some things is just awful the way he plays, adding to the beats in a way it doesnt deserve but overall he's got great groove and his playingstyle beats Brain and Matt put together. Adler had the greatest playing style in the world at one point, but it's gone and people have to realize that.

Saw it yesterday and I have to agree: the interviewer was a real douche, I think Axl wanted to punch him a couple of times.

Agree, his tone and control is out of this world. The last show in Århus was incredible, he sounded much more controlled and not as "screamy" as prev shows. His 90s nasal/head voice is coming back and it sounds amazing! At the start of the tour it sounded as if he pushed him self to hard, but not anymore..
