Either sing lower or can the song. Axl does that often….sings songs in the higher register that would some more comfortable and just plain better if he sang ‘lower’.

Yes I dont know why he's so stubborn and keeps struggling in the higher register when it's clear that he cannot hit those notes anymore.

Gordon Comstock Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 It would've been awesome to hear Reckless Life, Back In Black, Locomotive and TWAT (more regularly) back in 2016, but now... he just sounds bad on these soundcheck videos. There's no reason for him to embarrass himself singing those during a concert. I'm afraid to hear how bad SOD will be. I swear he read the positive comments about the Pretty Tied Up and Think About You 2020 recordings and went "well, now I'm not going to sing those." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at this point I'd rather hear a strong performance of an 'ok' song like Down On The Farm or You Ain't The First, than hear a bad performance of a great song like Locomotive or TWAT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChristianGNR Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 I’m hopeless. I don’t think Axl has lost his voice or anything like that, but he has to rework his approach to GN’R songs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Live Like a Suicide Posted June 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2022 I though that soundcheck of TWAT sounded okay for what it is. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he sounds about as good as ever does on this song outside of 06 or 2010. I think if he's half way capable of doing this song then it bodes well for a semi prepared Axl hitting the stage in Lisbon. I cannot see the Axl of last years WF'NBack tour managing this song before the first gig of the tour. Anyway, point is no it doesn't match the studio version but this is A) a soundcheck, so he isn't going to go hell for leather B) the first performance in 6 months besides rehearsal. Expectations should be reasonable though! he struggled on this song when he was in his mid 40s 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 As a huge TWAT fan I think Axl’s doing quite fine on it. He’s not what he used to be but it’s a bitch to sing. I would be more than happy to see it pop up here or there still. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jip Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 That was a good rehearsal,nice to hear those gems played.Also Slash did his homework and now sticks with the original solo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 That rehearsal of There Was A Time can’t be a big shock to everyone? Axl sounds in similar form to his approach to it over the last 10 years. Everyone going tonight, have a blast! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamillos Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 No huge fan of everlasting apologetics here, but I don't think Axl would give it a 100% at a sound check. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Slash has really nailed the TWAT solo now. Even does the tapping. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
