If you read the AC/DC forum, they like Chris about as much as we like Frank. A trade might be brokered here...

Really? Gosh, I wonder what the AC/DC fans would think of Frank, then! I think Chris sounds great!

I'm a bigger Bon Scott fanboy than I am an Axl fanboy, but damn me to hell for saying this, because no amount of hyperbole is enough - Axl outdid the master there on Let there be Rock.

If Bon sounded like a malevolent Satanic preacher, Axl sounded like Beelzebub, the lord of the flies himself, unleashing the dogs of hell on this world through Rock N' Roll.

Frank sounds great too, don't be haters.

 

I don't "hate" Frank. I don't hate anyone. I just don't think he's a great fit for GN'R. I don't know quite how to express it, but I feel that his drumming lacks a certain something. Soul? It sounds rather mechanical to me. Very different than, say, Steven.

Trying to ignore the dreadful crowd, I've reached the conclusion that AC/DC have a good drummer. Can we replace Frank with him?

I like Frank - he does good for his 50 years, but I love Chris - he's doing great for 70.

That's fair. He is very skilled, but I agree in terms of his drumming 'lacking soul'. I was listening to the released FLAC for the 2nd Vegas show (while working), and it had my head bobbing, so can't complain.

why is this concert in a graveyard?

It looks like they  are turning it around - the crowd is beginning to cheer now. Maybe the Belgians are just a little uptight and need to be a little inebriated to enjoy some Rock N' Roll.

Aye, to be fair to the guy, I still bop my head at Guns concerts as well. And I loved the second Vegas show! Would still love a drummer who's that perfect match with the other guys (and now girl), though! But eh, guess I can't complain, either. I'm happy enough as is.
