tkarmy Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Last night I went down the beach where no one could hear me put my headphones and just ran around singing and grooving like Axl would on stage. im a trained vocalist… zak Stevens fromsavatage and trans-Siberian orchestra fame is my teacher… been doing this since I was 9, have well received albums out… ive ragged on axls live vocals lots… I have an entire new appreciation for him. I’m 43 and workout physically and vocally everyday. To do what he does is really hard fucking work. He hits the notes and puts on a fucking show. would you rather not have your favourite band still selling stadiums and putting on great shows? bravo gnr! Great show! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't play it in London 2017 which was a shame. My only other GNR gig at Reading 2010 it also wasn't played. I also really hope I get to hear Absurd next year, and hopefully they're doing Hard School by then too! #TheNextChapter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can hope, right?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.e. there's no rasp, so it sounds ok no matter what. They've been playing this song since 2010? It's enough already! They have OWN songs that fits his current voice. So no it doesn't Make sense they still playing a cover for 10 years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they play it a few times just for fun it's OK i get it. But still playing a cover for 10 years, really?!?! They could play instead a GUNS N' ROSES song that he actually sound good too. For example: Bad Obsession / Down on the farm (still a cover but they recorded it) / You ain't the first/ So fine / Sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tom-Ass Posted August 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2021 Crowd sounds great.. Axl really seems to have regained some of his swagger back as a frontman this tour ad well.. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 GnR always liked to play covers that were not part of the catalogue (Dead Flowers, Dust In the Wind, It's Alright, etc.), so that's not a new thing. Yes, probably two or more of them at the same show is a bit too much, but the two they're currently playing (Wichita Lineman and the Seeker) sound good, plus the Seeker isn't played at every show and it's very short, so it doesn't really take the place of another song. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the GNR version more than the original by The Who actually, Don't Let It Bring You Down by Neil Young was another great cover, both songs sorta deal with feeling kinda lost trying to find your way, I guess Axl can just relate to the lyrics somehow and has fun singing these. If only he'd come up with songwriting this straight foward himself then maybe we'd be in for a killer new album. But I guess it takes Izzy to put three chords together and write some relateable words to them.

Sosso Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) I was surprised when listening to the originals from some of their covers. Nice Boys, Mama Kin, The Seeker. Those were always better than the original versions. They sounded like they were written for GN'R and not for the other Bands.

Anyway, let me be clear that I definitely do not advocate this song being on the playlist. I absolutely agree with you, they have enough of their own goddamn songs. I was just giving my 2 cents as to why I think they keep playing that, especially these days. Edited August 22, 2021 by jamillos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the whole Gn'R catalog that and Absurd are the only songs I don't like that feature Slash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jamillos Posted August 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2021 I absolutely love GN'R's rendition of Sympathy for the Devil. Then again, I'm weird, I'm one of the people who like Shotgun Blues and who think Axl's vocal peak was 92 and not 91 or 88 or whatever. To each their own. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
