estranged_85 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I've heard from people attending tonight that the sound was REALLY bad. Axl's mic was fading in and out and echo all over the venue. Haven't heard that much from the show but i hope that Axl do better on the next coming shows =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beautifulanddamned Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Did they not hire the best people in the business so that this shit doesn't happen? Too cheap? Is Fernando their sound guy? -or- That stadium was half full, just play a smaller venue with better acoustics you dummies! 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TheDemocracyRose Posted June 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2018 Review, Berlin... Easy guys. I was sitting/standing in the "Südkurve". There was a lot of sound troubles. Manic street preachers was rough. The sound was too high and it was like my ears was bleeding. Not there fault. I was looking forward to see them. But they got butchered. GNR. Being there is a huge difference. Axl and band came out fine and sounded pretty good in Easy Brownstone CD. Jungle and LALD had shorter screams but to me Axl was doing fine. Then sounds was way off in RQ and Axl was cleen but fine. When you are at venue you didn't hear the mickey parts(i didnt). It just sounds low and cleen. People around me seems to have a good time. Singing a long n' shit. Axl had shorter screams over all and missed parts but people around me didnt noticed. Again the sound was pretty bad. Sometimes you couldn't hear Axl and other times he is all over the place. Way too high and delayed. They skipped coma and Ycbm and had a short encore. That tells me that something was off tonight. Im not a fan who cant see Axls faults. Could he have been prepared better? Yes! Could this have been a better show? Yes! But to me the big fault here was the sound in stadium. Just bad. But dont worry guys n girl's. They sound will probably be better and Axl too. The show tonight was far from disaster but nothing like Houston...😉 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IYWB for example. Electric Yay these 56 pages have been blessed by a link containing a good Axl vocal <3 thanks kind sir... Onwards and upwards is surely a certainty !

RQRQ Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 It could have been the guys feed I watched on periscope but the sound seemed shocking in parts. Slither was kind of 'meh' to me. I'm sure everyone that was there had a great time as it's always different when you are there but it seems increasingly so, that with each show I don't attend I see it as money saved not a missed opportunity.

sl4yer Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I just watched PC and you can't tell Axl felt good, he didn't sang most parts evend didn't do "Ha ha ha ha" after outro started. Clearly something was off. I still havr hope that he will be goos at rest of the tour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lies They Tell Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 40 minutes ago, tajandreas said: Why is it that every time Axl has a bad singing night people automatically assume he's "sick?" If that's the case he's been sick for roughly 7 years, and that sure as hell ain't healthy. When Axl is prepared he sounds great, à la AC/DC. When he has 6 months off and doesn't even make an attempt to try out different ways of singing his own material, you get what you get tonight. Not fair to the fans, but it is what it is. The "sick" comments need to stop though. He sounded rough pretty much the whole 2017 and nobody thought he was sick then. But tonight was different in many ways. He didn't just sound bad, he consciously tried to avoid singing high notes. It's like he was told by his vocal couch to avoid singing those parts. We've seen what Axl's like on a regular bad night. He might sound bad, but at least he tries to sing all the high notes. Tonight he consciously avoided singing those parts. That's not typical Axl in any way. Plus they played a much shorter show and skipped YOU COULD BE MINE. That song's been a staple for forever. They even played it on the Golden Gods show when they only played 9 songs. It's considered one of the most important GNR songs. They would not skip it without a VERY good reason. It seems obvious that something was off tonight and the most likely explanation is that Axl was sick. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bernard Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 We've been to the Berlin gig this evening. Everything was peachy until Axl shot his voice pushing CD. He was firing up his part of 'the machine'. No one interacted with Fortus & it's sheer luck Melissa wasn't booed off stage during introductions. There were no technical difficulties imho. The show was cut short by almost an hour compared to say, like... the forum or rir 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound sucked and the monitors too and that is unacceptable! Having watched some vids, the microphone clearly does cut out at times...BUT Axl also doesn't sing parts of some songs and missed phrasing. I'm guessing he just didn't have the vocal chops to do some parts. For example Civil war, alot of notes cut short, he misses some words at times and totally skips the final few lines after the solo. Ironically I prefer it that way! But normally regardless of how rough Axl may sound, he never does what he did tonight and not even attempt parts of songs.

Then you have the others going on as if it's the worst thing to ever happen in the history of vocal performances.

Axl sounded fine, but I just cannot get over Frank’s drum kit’s tone. He has the chops but I just don’t like how it sounds with the Guns discography no matter how much I force myself to try and like it. It certainly didn’t work with Slither in my opinion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsdrummer63 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Being a drummer, Frank could have been a lot worse. I can't stand him on most songs but slither actually wasn't half bad. If he hit the crash cymbal instead of the ride during the solo it could have been more powerful and sounded a bit better but other than that I didn't think he did horrible. Axl on the other hand... might want to give lead vocals to duff on that one. or even slash that's just not his song. Good effort tho Slash and duff killed it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
