Screamin' Demon Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) On one hand the London show that has been announced for release is getting heavy criticism due to a poor vocal performance by Axl. Rather than to view fans as ungrateful or insatiable, the band should take privilege of having the opportunity to cancel the release due to the sales forecast looking bad, given the fan reactions. The band should really consider this. On the other hand, here they are about to do a handful of shows in Las Vegas, announcing that there will be surprises. If there really will be surprises and if Axl's voice will be much better this time around, it would be much more effective to either record one of the shows and prepare it for release, or even better play different setlists each night, record all the shows professionally with a camera crew and make a concert DVD consisting of the best performances of each song, plus whatever songs they perform on a one off. This could number the list of songs played to over 30 if they vary it enough. Next, the whole Appetite For Democracy cover is very eye catching and would make a perfect DVD cover art.

volcano62 Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 At this point i'll take any bluray release.
tat2d1 Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Perhaps they have a contract with Livebeats? And as long as it has taken for this London show to be released I find it hard to believe that there hasn't been any "studio magic" done to tweak things, such as Axl's voice.
Guest RonMexico82 Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 That would be the smart thing to do.
Jakey Styley Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Axl's voice will be as bad for Vegas as it was for London.
WilliamBruceRoseJr Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 We finally have something new going on. Let's enjoy the London DVD release, don't be that hard on Axl
Val22 Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Yeah, they should film all the Vegas shows and put together the best of them all and release it as a live cd/dvd/blue ray. I think it's way past due for another live cd/dvd from GNR.
