Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 1991 in hotpants and a flannel shirt. I also loved it when he was dressed in leader in the 80's. He was sexy back then. His teeth was horrible though, so I'll go with the 1991.
seely Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 Always liked the 1991 look best.2006 I've grown pretty fond of too.
Cosmo Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) I'm fond of every look but the early '87, 2001 and 2002 looks. Edited June 13, 2012 by The Only Cosmonaut
hitmanhart408 Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 should this really be discussed here? This has been discussed so many times
Tabitha27 Posted June 13, 2012 Author Posted June 13, 2012 In Axl's defense, it would be kind of hard form him to go back looking as thin as he did in 80s/90s unless he starting doing major cocaine
Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 Here's one of my favourite pictures of Axl. I have it stored on the computer.
vaida Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) For me the most defining look would be Axl Rose at the Ritz. Snake skin boots, bandana, black vest, skin tight trousers, tattoos on show, young looks. That's the character Axl will always be remembered for. Its the essence of Guns N'Roses. The look matched the music.During the Use Your Illusion years, he became a fruit loop. Bright blue jackets, swimming trunks, what was Axl trying to say ? - meltdown ?Vegas 2000 saw Axl show up on stage wearing black and red baggy track suite bottoms. Here was someone, with a new record in the works, someone who appeared to have lost all direction. I think Axl possibly had a head full of Chinese, and the track suite bottoms where some sort of cross-over messsage The West (America) meets The East (Chinese Kung-Fu). Bucekthead possibly weighed heavily on his mind. I still believe to this Axl thought he had won some sort of internal war getting Bucket onboard. Here was a technical guitarist, possibly the only one on earth who could play live Axl's vision, and some how erase Slash. As we all know, Buckethead use GN'R as a platform to further his own career.The Braids era Axl was just painful to look at. One or two photo's looked ok, but for the rest - EPIC FAILNow in 2012 we have a 50 year old Axl who will do anything to stay yound, and possibly connect with the young. He probably don't have a clue as to whats hip and what isn't, but be emulating Dj Ash, he is possibly buying into it all. Edited June 13, 2012 by vaida
The Glow Inc. Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 2006...He looked killer and he still had that Chinese Democracy mystique going on about him at the time.
Guest Sleeping Like An Angel Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) [/thread]oh my GOD YES!!True story: I sent a picture of Axl from farm aid and a pair of juicy couture jeans to a dressmaker and she made me a fantastic copy of those jeans. I still wear them Here's one of my favourite pictures of Axl. I have it stored on the computer. This is true. It's scary how fast he whips this one out. I always loved these as well:oH MY GODI LOVED the babyface Axl look. I'm a sucker for it. He and a young Leo Di Caprio are dreamboats. Edited June 13, 2012 by Sleeping Like An Angel
tippin Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 Axl Rose, 2006 Agreed! Great look for him..in shape, short hair..just wish it was straight and pulled back instead of the corn rows..although I got used to them and actually ended up liking them..
