In the previous shows, it seemed like he had to push a lot to have the rasp. In this show, the rasp was appearing naturally, almost as he had no control at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes me think he can really sing with rasp everytime he wants It, but he just prefer to sing with clean voice, also It seems that is more comfortable for him! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicoRourke Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) Axl was really really great last night, that was so good to hear. His voice really is a mystery. The whole band was great actually, with a cool crowd as well. Edited June 29, 2022 by NicoRourke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swirkh Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Rasp on SCOM ? Is the world ending or something ?! It must be the best performance of the song since the reunion, right ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratam Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 I guess that hard critic push to Axl improvement. Few days ago a Norway fan put in Tik Tok a video about the Axl's vocals an she dissapoint, the video has become viral, has more 2 millons visualizations. Maybe Axl need be bit stimulate to realize as him sound. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRfanMILO Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 That raspy SCOM has to be a tour highlight. I'm really impressed I hope he keeps singing like this! November Rain was amazing as well. Two very difficult songs for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I listen to his live performances nowadays, the more I'm convinced that If you asked him to sing whatever song exactly like he did in 1992, he would sing exactly like he did in 1992. He's still capable of doing it, I'm 100% sure he could do it in the studio with no problems. Probably he won't be able to sing like this every night for the whole tour, and that's the only reason why he chooses different singing style - to maintain his voice. 2 minutes ago, Ratam said: I guess that hard critic push to Axl improvement.

By looking at this tour so far - the setlists, varying length of shows, Axl's vocal performance that varies almost from show to show, I have one conclusion - he's trying out different things, looking to change something. And actually it's kinda exciting to watch from a fan perspective. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His voice is no way near what it used to be(the man is 60), this tour has seen a lot of struggles vocally and some good moments. Today in Dublin he was very strong, and it was great to hear/see. Do I think he sings in a way to preserve his voice to last a long tour? absolutely.- he's smart. But I'm not niave in thinking he can just turn it on like the 90's , 2010's, 2016 AC/DC no way.... He can definetly do better, but that banshee powerhouse wail will never be the same like it once was, and thats ok, his energy and effort is clearly showing so kudos Axl.

steveysham Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 3 hours ago, Rovim said: maybe he doesn't need it to get through the set, but considering the physically demanding Gn'R material (to his vocal chords and body cause he's not just standing there singing the shit) my guess is that a 20-40 minutes of breaks helps him immensely, I think he needs to rest his voice between performances. it might be boring to a lot of people but I'm just saying the long breaks are not pointless. It's possible we're getting better vocal performances from Axl thanks to these solo spots and extended solos. gives the crowd a rest too. Not that this crowd was particularly active. But too many songs one after the other, going full pout burns the crowd out faster. for me the 3 hours went in super fast, the guitar solos and jams were great. it's nice to see the band be a band, and not a live jukebox dishing out song after song for the benefit of those who are glued to setlist.fm for the full show.

Thinking about it, a real highlight was double talkin jive. Slash guitar work on the extended intro was really excellent. Agree about the solos being great. You're there for the songs but also to see some of the best musicians in the world do their thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think like you, in terms of power I think he will never approach again to 90's, 10's... But I think that in terms of sounding something similar to that times he can really approach!

mystery Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Chad Smith being there reminds me of the anecdote he had of seeing Axl backstage at a RHCP concert in 1996 and not recognizing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
