gunnerjames Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 i have curiously been checking out some songs on the slash tour ( sorry if i'm in the wrong section) but icould not take it any more. every gnr song he tries to sing is like the sound of cat in heat. why slash would allow anyone to sing gnr songs is a capital crime.only axl rose can sing gnr songs. also axl rose is the only singer that can sing anyone else's songs and better then the original. While it is true slash and axl made an incredible team, ie: collaboration of "estranged" it is time everyone moved on, for good. walk quietly but carry a big stick, too bad it is just a twig, sorry slash, myles kennedy is a big letdown, u fall short again.take the thorn out of axls paw, you will both be better off, although you both give as good as it gets you will never be a team again.

DocBrown Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I agree. I really like him as a singer on his own. His 2 songs on the Slash album were the best I thought. He really does not do a good job singing Axl songs though. Which can kind of be expected. Nobody does. He does a better job than Scott Weiland though, that's for sure.

evergreen_layne Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 No way man he kills it on Rocket Queen and Civil War. Fact. BTW I'm really hoping for some more Snakepit songs in his set. Like Serial Killer!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cdlove Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) He's good on his own, dont exactly like his GnR covers though, my personal opinion is that he should stop doing Nightrain and Civil War(He sucks at those) and replace it with Promise and A Saint is a Sinner Too.Edit: Also wrong section.

FuddMckagan Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 He fucking owns Rocket Queen and SCOM, and he's pretty good at PC. He ain't the greatest on Civil War but then again who would be apart from Axl.Myles rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunnyDRE Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 He's not bad, but I get what your saying.It has always been weird for me hearing anyone other than Axl singing GNR songs.Probaly the only GNR covers I ever liked where done by ptsondr (no lie).

gunnerjames Posted June 28, 2010 Author Share Posted June 28, 2010 he's terrible on everything. even on non gnr songs. his voice is annoying and very bland. he is also a very boring entertainer. there are many good entertainers out there. but he's definately not one of them.

GNR forever,I am surprised you aren't thanking Slash and Myles then for playing piss poor versions of GNR songs, because it makes Axl and New GNR look that much better with Slash fumbllng through the songs and having a second rate bar band caliber bore fronting his band making people cringe who have to listen to them at live shows. Here Slash probably naively thought people were cheering for him at shows, little did he know they were cheering because they were one song closer to not having to listen to Myles anymore, which is why PC gets the biggest cheer of the night usually. It's a celebration that the torture is finally over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNR forever,Hey man if you just ignore the trio of 4 year hiatuses then this makes perfect sense. Does it really count as being together when they are never together? Slash wrote much more material and played many many more live shows than all these guys. I have to question if you are being ignorant or if you are actually this stupid.

Nick83 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Myles Kennedy is the most overrated guy out there right now. It seems to be the "cool" thing for people to automatically say he's "really good" and praise the shit out of him like he is the next Robert Plant or something. Don't get me wrong. He can sing and he is probably a nice guy, but I'm a little sick of the unjust praise and fake bandwagon fans hopping on this guy. Even Slash bought into the hype. But as we know, whatever is cool at the moment, Slash jumps on and agrees.Granted all that, I think he does a good job on these songs with what he's got. He's able to manipulate his range into something that sort of matches the original, but of course it lacks all the feeling. However, if I wanted to see Slash play some GNR songs, then I'd probably be somewhat satisfied with Kennedy.Just goes to show you can hire people to do what Slash does, and have them do it well, but you can't hire someone to do what Axl does. There is only one guy who can sing those songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moreblack Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 i have curiously been checking out some songs on the slash tour ( sorry if i'm in the wrong section) but icould not take it any more. every gnr song he tries to sing is like the sound of cat in heat. why slash would allow anyone to sing gnr songs is a capital crime.only axl rose can sing gnr songs. also axl rose is the only singer that can sing anyone else's songs and better then the original. While it is true slash and axl made an incredible team, ie: collaboration of "estranged" it is time everyone moved on, for good. walk quietly but carry a big stick, too bad it is just a twig, sorry slash, myles kennedy is a big letdown, u fall short again.take the thorn out of axls paw, you will both be better off, although you both give as good as it gets you will never be a team again.

bacardimayne Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I think it's subconscious jealousy and the idea that since they can't experience the real band, they have to play make believe and delude themselves into a place that doesn't exist. It's like, lets create a false utopia where what we're seeing is not only Guns N Roses, but BETTER. That Axl ISN'T overweight and unable to move around on stage like he use to. That the backing vocals live are GOOD because they help him breath during notes and put on a better show. That CD shit's all over AFD and that anyone outside of my little message board is deluded...not me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slash_plocman Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Myles Kennedy is a good singer. Not as good as Axl, but he does pretty well. I saw him in Prague this year and enjoyed him singing though I'm a big 'newgnr' supporter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
