Nosaj Thing Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Anything after 2006 is kind of cringe. Mostly due to weight and phoning it in. Indeed. Specially the thing he does with his hand. It looks fake and choreographed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks fake and choreographed.I really think it was gone for the most part as early as Rio 2001. Of course it was fantastic to see him again after so long, but something wasn't right. He'd lost "it", whatever "it" is. I'd say we saw brief flashes in 2006 but not much else. The radical decline in his stage presence is equal to the radical decline in his voice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lio Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Axl used to be cool as fuck and his stage presence was great in the early years.. Now he just looks weird and awkward especually with that little side shuffle thing he does. I thought he looked cool in the sweet child video, the Late Show when they did You're Crazy, Jungle at the VMA's and things like that. One example is when he strolled on stage during Tom petty's Free Fallin.. That was just the definition of cool...He really got into it during the UYI's tour but some of his moves just started to become very staged and corny..I do think he looked pretty cool during that first Rick In Rio with NuGnR too for what it is worth.Axl during Free Fallin was a GOD. I almost always love him, but that was the absolute best for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Tokyo 1992 takes the cakeNot sure if that is a joke but that is when he started losing it for me. All the outfit changes and staged moves for certain songs... Doing his hair in between songs.. Just lame.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Wherever this show was...Axl looked like he was on something really good haha I know y'all laugh at him being in a good mood but he really was here. His moves at the end of YCBM made me scared for his knees but he pulled it off. Great show if your interested in 2010 moves. Jungle at 1:15 would kill Axl today haha idk he was on something else at this show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSoftie Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 This must be an alternate version "You can push it for more mileageBut your flaps are wearin' thinAnd I could sleep on it 'til mornin'But na na na na na na" But yeah holy hell, if I did that I'd slip, do the splits and break everything important. Bucharest, a few weeks earlier, was the same actually. Not sure if high or just having a great time but fuck he rocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the outfit changes and staged moves for certain songs... Doing his hair in between songs.. Just lame..Funny. I liked that.I did too. In classic Guns Axl always seemed like he was about half a second from jumping the shark, but imo he pulled it off pretty much every time. Spandex shorts with high tops and white socks? And a purple blazer? Fuck it. Pullin' it off. For some people, it didn't work, but for me he was just the coolest motherfucker no matter what ridiculous shit he was doing or wearing.Other thing I like about this clip is how spontaneous it is. I can't remember seeing him do that hop dance before or since. That's just what came out of his body on the spot as the band played the song. Cool shit.
