He probably isnt aware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Minus Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 That vocal performance on This I Love was absolutely horrific. It sounded like some drunken Chinese man singing karaoke in a dive bar. Good god. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheldonR311 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 When NITL started out they were doing those awesome little tour vignettes and posting them everywhere, and making a big deal out of Axl getting his vocal coach from the Illusion tours back and he sounded amazing. Why would you throw away all that progress? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only had the vocal coach for the AC/DC gigs I think Axl gave him front row passes for one of the GNR shows and there was a pic of him there, but he wasn't working with Axl on the GNR material Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axls voice is really bad. nothin new.. 2018 is his worst year of the NITL Tour. 2016 was amazing but 2018 it's not good.. Nothin new. I really have to wonder if hes kind of over it.....but then he could have said no to adding extra shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ama Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 It is quite obvious that Axl's voice needs a rest. He can't sing for such a long tour especially if he sings for more than 3 hours every single night. It is not less obvious that also, during the rests he needs, he should lose weight, improve his physical form, practice and rehearse with a vocal coach for new techniques that help him to improve or keep his voice in a good shape. But we all know that this is and impossiblity that will never happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristmasFnatic Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 I remember in 2013, when Aerosmith came here, the security were facing us(Aerosmith was already performing). I joked and told one to watch the concert. He said its ok cuz the night prior, Aerosmith rehearsed and its like a private show for them. He even said Steven threw him an extra water bottle for him to drink and Joe gave him a guitar pick. Guns- no Axl on rehearsals. Wonder what he is doing while the band rehearsed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sosso Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 I would rather see L.A. Guns nowadays. This is what I call a band with chemistry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangerInThisTown Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 If Axls voice is as horrible as made out here, why are they still filling all the places and why is the press not calling him out on it? Why is the band not calling him on it? Either this forum is extremely critical or no one in the press has the balls to say it out loud, and for what reason not? It makes no sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz his reunion with Slash I think. They dont sell as much with NuGNR, right? Its when Slash came back that interest really skyrocketed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band's under a gag order and the press doesn't want to be locked out of future interview/photo opportunities since Axl still runs the ship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slash wasn't playing to huge stadiums/arenas before he came back to GNR, Velvet Revolver toured but no where near as extensively as this current band and New Guns. He only seems to book theaters while on the road with Myles & the Conspirators. Even NUGNR managed to sell out the garden and other big venues.

In the end, I think most people just want to hear Slash and Axl in GN’R, playing GN’R songs. They are weakened without eachother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Guapo Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Lets face it, the only time where there was serious hope for Axl to change his ways was when Slash and Duff rejoined. He sounded good that but it didn't last long Now, it is what it is and it will not get any better I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you throw away all that progress? I dont know but it's a real shame. He was really in great form in 2016. What a downward spiral. He realized he didnt have to care anymore. Whatever microscope hed be under from the casual crowd and media was removed after the first reunion shows and ACDC legs. He figures he doesnt have to care or try anymore and all the positivity he had from his vocals have dissipated. We never thought hed to full rasp again after 2011-2014 and he showed us he could not only do it, but sound like AfD Axl almost (especially with Angus). There hasnt been a single vocal performance in 2017 or 2018 close to those 2016 GNR shows let alone ACDC 2 hours ago, TheSeeker said: He only had the vocal coach for the AC/DC gigs I think Axl gave him front row passes for one of the GNR shows and there was a pic of him there, but he wasn't working with Axl on the GNR material That dude should have been on Axl's speed dial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Why is it Slash, the professional musician and in the place to pass judgement, thinks Axl does an amazing job and some of you folks are all over his ass thinking he phones it in? I agree it's not perfect but Axl is one of the best frontmen out there. Yeah, don't answer that question, we've heard that broken record. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
