Mark1989 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Axl Blew our minds. I remember the feeling of the whole build up. When I was at the studio in Lisbon listening to the rehearsals the anticipation was amazing. The torrential rain and wind was madness but somehow when the band came on the clouds cleared and the rain stopped. When I heard the opening lien of rock or bust I knew we were in store for something amazing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I've said before that I had extremely low expectations of Axl on the Brian material because of how most of 2011-2014 sounded. He completely blew me away when we started hearing those clips. I truly didn't think Axl still had that in him, but boy did he deliver. I feared that we'd be getting "Mickey" versions of Hells Bells and Shoot to Thrill. Ironically I thought he actually did better on the Brian material even though I figured initially that the Bon stuff would come more naturally to him. If anything, the "Mickey" showed up more in TNT (consistently what I'd consider the weakest song of the tour) and Dirty Deeds. Kudos to Axl and here's to another AC/DC album and tour. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bon material was definitely weaker. TNT was always the low point. Dirty Deeds was rough in Europe, but excellent in the US. Touch Too Much really only sounded good one out of the three times it was played. But everything else was incredible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 It was actually these videos that made everyone freak out...I remember some people even said it was an old clip from the 80's of Axl singing thunderstruck, hearing these the first time was exciting for sure. You knew it was him and you knew he'd brought something special for these shows. listening back to Lisbon now I realized how much more polished he was in the US. Even little things like the way he enunciated words in back in black on the first show to in the US there was big improvements. His flow was so much better as he got more shows under his belt and the improvement on the Bon material was incredible. Some of my favorite clips are High Voltage, If you want blood, and Rock n Roll Damnation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I'm certainly excited for the NITL show I'll be attending this year (my second of the tour), but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't more excited for AXL/DC to resume. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
