IncitingChaos Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 (edited) i haven’t listened to videos in a while but I’m finding Axl’s voice to sound strange. It sounds better than the rest of 2017 but it’s like a new voice...if i were listening to this blind i wouldn’t think It was Axl. Some of his phrasing and nuances aren’t here maybe it’s just late but in 2016 It still sounded like Axl. Not saying the one tonight was bad but something seems weird to me...again definitely better than the rest of 2017 just not the voice I️ was expecting. Still happy he’s bringing some rasp back into It though! Edited November 29, 2017 by IncitingChaos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl's voice was strong throughout but shaky on Chinese Democracy material. However, he rasped his way through most if not all songs from Appetite...My Michelle in particular. Paradise City and Nightrain were incredible. Two girls around me stripped their clothes off. One of them rocked out to a couple of songs while topless and wearing a Slash wig/hat combo...! The crowd was wild to say the least. I bought a tour program and a t-shirt. I can post a pic of those two items if anyone's interested. Post them all... 👍🏻😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNRfanMILO Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 I haven't been following Axl's performances lately... does he sound as good as the first shows of this Arena leg? I remember around the Madison Square Garden dates, he was rasping a lot. Specially on Paradise City and Maddy... And Prostitute and TWAT. Would be nice if tomorrow's show has that level, it would almost be like a 2016 NA show. But I get the feeling that he has got worse again, I don't know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching this video, he sounds pretty good but not as incredible as it sounded in person. I've seen Axl sing in 10 different shows and he put an edge to a few songs in San Diego that I hadn't heard in the past. For some songs (or parts of), he sang in ultra 1991-mode...in others, he sounded a bit winded and weak. For example, the first verse of Madagascar sounded out of this world. As he went through the song, his voice became weaker on the verses as it became more powerful on the choruses. He honestly has 10-15 different voices. Coma was weak (for the most part) yet Nightrain sounded as good as it did in any 1987-1993 show...seriously. He turns "it" on and off whenever he wants to. It's weird yet fascinating. I will post pics of the program (grabbed the very last one!) and shirt later today. Another point: Slash is a BEAST. His guitar playing is out of this planet. I've seen 3 of his solo shows, and this is the best he has sounded...by far. Moreover, he jumped and ran as if he was 25-30 years old. My only criticism is his This I Love solo--Finck's is better. When he played the Godfather theme, people around me started to loose it. I suppose this might have to do with how close San Diego is to Mexico, lol (it's on the border). For the most part, I've never seen people react that way to any guitar solos for any band (in person). We know how intense Latin American fans can get. I also saw as many young people as I did older folk. This is something I did not see for Axl's version of the band (for the US at least) Overall, I think this tour will re-certify GN'R as a "legend" status type of band. Quite frankly, right now...they're on top of the world. Edited November 29, 2017 by IndiannaRose 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another clip with better sound and audio I know what you are saying he sounds more gritty and raspy on this and less of the usual mickey we have been getting. This and My Michelle sounded great. His changed them up vocally and sounds motivated instead of going auto pilot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
