I know people dont want to hear that song or other CD songs but to change up the setlist, it would work for me. On Better melissa was the bright star. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnrcane Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I wonder if Axl had some kind of bug for the show? The clips I watched he was MUCH worse than the clips from the soundchecks. It makes no sense. WTTJ sounded pretty good in the soundcheck video but awful in the show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa is a great singer, i don't know why they don't give her more space. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because they probably soundchecked with pre-recorded vocals or has anyone heard Axl talk during soundcheck? No way he did THAT soundcheck and sounded like THIS the next day. Either he's too sick to sing, has burned himself out in the studio or did not prepare at all. Maybe even a combination of all that. Unless you done a shitload of drugs/medication just prior to the show, no way in hell is anyone gonna have that drastic a change of voice in just 24 hours, Edited August 3, 2021 by adamsapple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It made me believe that there's at least some work in progress in terms of new material since it's the first concrete proof we have. Loved that they removed the unnecessary intro/outro parts from the leak and added a very nice slow section that kind of reminded me of Estranged. Man, what a strange feeling it is to listen some creative work from Guns nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axlweave Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 The 2017 show that I was at on my birthday in Hershey was awesome but this show I was at on Saturday was not up to par GnR is my fave band and I will always support them but this show was rough I know Axl is close to 60 and can’t sing like he did 30 years ago except for his deep voice and the occasional rasp on some songs. The first 5 songs were great and civil war and heavens door were great as well but it’s time for them to drop Better and You could be mine he can’t sing them anymore and maybe should use his lower register on November Rain. I really hope they get better the rest of the tour I’d hate to see them go out this way. We still had a good time just wish for my probably last concert it would have been better and also was hoping to hear hard skool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting to close and still too many cases all over the country.. Plus the incoming people daily being let back in contagious is disgusting... Pretty crazy how things are now and everyone thought we were in the clear just a little while ago. It was only in May that I was at a music festival in Sydney with 9999 other people and now this shit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Live Like a Suicide Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Axl always sounds like shit at the first show back, but that shouldn't be an excuse, because people are paying hard-earned money for something that should be passable. I think he did well on a few songs at Hershey, but there is no denying how unprofessional the entire thing was. Rehearsals and soundchecks are there for a reason, and it's ridiculous that the band and its management treat live shows as if it was a first go. People should get their money back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've zero intention of watching some crappy footage from it, especially now, but for those who have, how were they? Based on videos, I thought that was the best tone slash has had since rejoining Guns. Maybe I’m wrong here but he sounded a lot better than before, which was still great. Maybe it was the tempo change? Even Frank seemed a bit better 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweersa Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 This show was a surprise. But not in a good sense. I hope they improve by the time my dad and I see them in Detroit this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Hidin´Stradlin Posted August 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2021 I followed them thanks to a livestream. Stopped watching after Dead Horse, it was cringy. Got back and KOHD was being played, so I left again to come back 20 minutes later and KOHD was still going. Left. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoundOfAGun Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 They had a good run, feathered the retirement nest nicely. Time for them to sack off the live shows and release a record 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishgunnerII Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Well like the song says “the only way is up” and it seems that Axl along with some technical difficulties( I should have said nothing a few days ago) was first show of a tour bad + something else. I still have tickets for next June here in Ireland but it’s not sounding great. Hopefully this is just the result of the longer lay off. The next couple of shows will need to improve though and whether technical issues will be sorted. It’s either axl doesn’t want to rehearse regularly or it’s that he can’t.

Soundcheck if he does turn up he half asses singing a couple of songs. At a concert however his trying to perform 20+ songs for over 2 hours in different registers. A whole different challenge to sound good through. He did sound ok for the first couple of songs at Hershey but obviously did not have the capacity to keep it going for a long period.

As a drummer I notice a lot of things he does and compare them too easily to past drummers in the band but I was pleasantly surprised. My biggest gripe now is that his drum sounds just don’t fit the band. The snare sound is extremely off from what other snare sounds drummers in GnR had and it’s a notice or difference especially on songs like PC. He certainly was a pleasant surprise tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTJ80 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I think we can all agree that we hope to hell that tonight’s gig is an improvement….if it’s as bad then…..😬 I have tickets for next year and will go regardless as you wouldn’t bet against it being the last time they ever come to Scotland. I’m just hoping by then the right setlist decisions have been made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
