saber_ Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Siiiiince there's nothing to talk about in GnR land, I have an honest question. Have you noticed this too? Why does Axl have fewer stage outfits nowadays than he did back in the old days? He seems to recycle the same outfits quite a bit in recent years. Why do you suppose that is?

Facekicker Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Lack of interest, which extends to so many other things to do with this band. He has clearly given up/defeated whatever you want to call it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Those 2010 jackets were seriously bad-ass. On anyone else they would look hideous, but fuck it, Axl pulled it off:The hoodie/leather-jacket combo monstrosity thing from Bridge School and the Hilfiger shows is just awful, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Doesn't he get get abuse for to many costume changes?Anyway he changes his t shirts constantly throughout the shows. Even down to a specific song. Not sure why certain songs require certain shirts. I remember from 2012 he'd put on the bunny shirt for don't cry regardless where the song ended up in the setlist.

Amir Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 When I saw him in 2012 he'd wear the "Pussy Time" t-shirt for Don't Cry, great piss-take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) Yeah the whole wardrobe was different at london with the red hat and circular specs and long jackets etc.. I presume it was for the dvd?I wonder who shops for him because there is just some random fashion he is wearing from biker jackets to all saints shirts.

Amir Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 He wore Pussy Time at London, pretty sure it was all the 2012 shows, definitely remember seeing it for the first time at Atlantic City in Feb '12: Should just hire Black Sabbath to buy his wardrobe to make Sabbath's life easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) Ahh never knew it was worn before london.yeah he should but he'd have no where to put them cause of his ever growing blu ray collection Edited November 7, 2013 by Axl_morris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunsguy Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) Little known info that he actually tours with ALOT of his 91-93 clothing. We have seen recently from the Tokyo dvd his Nightrain jacket recycled live.As for the other clothing, I am unsure why he still lugs it around with him.

Shooting Star Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Why does Axl have to keep changing his clothes all the time?Rock concerts are no fashion show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Cause he is a celebrity and im sure he has his fingers in many pies in the fashion industry getting all sorts of royalties. Not to mention the GNR bullet logo is sold out to many clothing lines over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 To be fair, plenty of artists wear the exact same shit at every single gig, at least on a given tour. Axl has more variety than some other rockstars out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sabbath Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Should just hire Black Sabbath to buy his wardrobe to make Sabbath's life easier As long as I get one of everything I want then sure BTW, I did find where you can buy that Pussy Time shirt, but I don't want to spend $100+ on it (right now...)I like his outfits nowadays (though I wish he would just wear the shirts without the big ass leather jackets, regardless of them being cool or not). His shirts are always interesting to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty Softpaws Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 He still has a ton of clothes changes in the jackets alone.-Intro jacket with studs along the shoulder blades.-Jacket with the gold studs along the cuffs and shoulders.-Jacket with studs underneath the arms to the bottom.-Jacket with the patches on the arms and the skull on the back.-Black trench coat.-Red trench coat (although I don't think hes worn it in a while)-Black striped trench coat.-DSquared leather / denim jacket / hoodie.-DSquared black / green jacket-Gold velvet blazer-Paradise City jacket with the studded sleeves.Not to mention all the hats and ELEON shirts.The leather jackets seem too same same whereas the blazers from 2010 all had something that distinguished them from each other. Even the shiny blue and silver blazer shown above looked great, even though I thought it was pretty tacky at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bono Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 it's much easier to change out of spandex shorts than it is to change out of jeans, shirts, jackets, hates, tons of gawdy jewelry. Axl's choic eof stage attire was always a bit odd but these days he looks like a geriatric rockstar. sadly I think he wears so much clothes to cover up his insecurities. How else do you explain the stupid looking hats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
