SoulMonster Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 We gotta wait for the videos. People at the show are not exactly trustworthy. And this goes both ways, just read my Rock in Rio review and you'll see.Exactly. And besides, it is not uncommon for the band to start a touring season not in top shape. Last tour got great reviews, I expect the same to happen to this tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManetsBR Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Ignaliza, I'll search for it later, but summing it up, it was the best concert I've ever been to, and I've been to a bunch of concerts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victor.vFo Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I think people that have a bad experience are more likely to complain than those that didn't.59 people commented on the feed, there are over 20,000 people there tonight to put it in perspectiveWeel, these are obviously not GnR fans posting on the feed. But I see no reason why they would say he is singing bad if he wasn't.We'll have to wait for the videos to see by ourselves, but my hopes aren't high.And 40 minutes late is a improve, i think. Maybe he can make it to 30 in the next shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rock4eva Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 http://www.facebook.com/rocklahoma?fref=tsSome comments on Axl's pic:"They sounded horrible.....we left early"" Huge fan but I left early too. He sounded horrible and played songs no one cares to hear... Late on top of it but to be expected.. Crowd started leaving after two of new songs played. He is axel" this is so bad... The dramatic reactions here are funny sometimes.AliAli it always starts like this but as we know it gets more positive & he sounds better as he tours.No, no he doesn't. He was consistently shit from 2011 through the beginning of this year.I saw them in March & they were great, no way was he bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rock4eva Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Can somebody tell me what these 'new songs' that commenter was talking about are??Sounds like English is not their first language or they are bad at typing, why don't you pm them and ask them? Bet you'll find it was just a couple of songs they hadn't heard before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evader Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Anyone spelling his name "Axel" cannot be trusted for any type of review. In all likelihood, they only vaguely remember 3 or 4 songs from GNR, and that alone should result in all their statements being ignored.I disagree - I would say they are giving a completely objective view as to quality and not living in denial like most hardcore fans.Shit singing sounds like shit singing. Fullstop.Having said that, Axl has never been great on the first show of a tour leg. Hopefully he regroups and improves show-by-show like the last couple of runs.Agreed that Axl has rarely been perfect on his first show of a tour, but I still think it is fair to say that anyone that spells his name as "Axel" after his 25+ years of "stardom" is either a) doing so on purpose to be a dick, or b) knows no more than 4 or 5 GNR songs and/or is probably just .... not very smart. Either way, my trust factor in their opinion disintegrates to zero almost immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gunns Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I don't think there were many guns fans at the download festival a few years back, but Axl seemed to have won over the majority of the crowd by paradise city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rock4eva Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 The one complaining about being threatened for having a good camera is named Madison. It couldn't be......wouldn't be..... I guess they don't want professional photos being taken as they have professional photographers working for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were front row right in front of the speakers & he sounded great, after all they are playing for the crowd that turns up - not for youtube.
