If you say that he made a bad choice by not stoping the song immediatly, I can agree with you ... but, it's not only his fault, anyone could have done it .. .even Axl .. it was his momment, he could stop the song whenever he wanted.If you say that DJ didn't even realize that the guitar was out of tune, then, I could understand all this criticism at him ... as a guitar player he should be able to recognize when the guitar is out of tune ... which is the case, that why he changed his guitar in the end of the song.Let's be reasonable ...

Nosaj Thing Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 In Axl's band, only Axl is the one who can stop a song, the hired musicians playing other people's material are too afraid of making that kind of decision. When real Guns N' Roses was around, anyone could stop a song. Like Duff did when he was being spat at, or when Slash stopped playing SCOM because he couldn't stop laughing.

What's ridiculous is people bashing him so hard because of this when, mostly, it was Axl's fault not stopping the music, when he had the authority to do it ... c'mon, he already stopped songs because of minor causes ...Obviously everybody noticed it was out of tune, I was only saying that the guy playing should be the first one to notice and take action regarding that, especially when you're playing in a high caliber band as the GNR name. There's plenty of examples showcasing his awfully bad guitar playing (his vibrato and his bends are esp bad), his horrendously processed tones. The point is: this video showcased how unprofessionnal he is. Changing guitar after the song? Wow, BFD, after butchering a classic because he couldn't tune his guitar and start again? If Axl wasn't as drugged up as he looked during the event, I'm sure hearing that butchering of the lick would've messed Axl's moment more than Ashba doing what EVERY PROFESSIONAL MUSICIAN would have done in that case, simply starting over.This particular moment made the whole band look like a joke (if it was still needed considering the pretty subpar performance), simply because Ashba didn't care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, had it been a GN'R show, he would have stopped, but this awards thing are oftenly programmed to start and finish at some exact hour. Plus, weren't they coming out through television too?There were people watching via web, streaming and live... I don't think it's that easy to stop and go change guitars in that very moment when all eyes are on you.Who's fault is it? Probably the tech guitar who didn't tune it and Ashba who didn't try it before going stage... who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
