ZoSoRose Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I really dug the clips I looked up.He looks good and is putting in effort, new deep cuts in the set (some for the first time in decades), and new songs on the horizon. Good stuff. Excited to see them in August 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly everyone has been pretty positive about the performance. Listening to it now and Axl was very good. And the band was tight as ever. Really great show, great setlist. Just overall great. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoon87 Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) He really knocked one out of the park. He was everywhere and he sounded mostly strong and obviously had a blast. Great frontman. Edited June 25, 2023 by Spoon87 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koldweather Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Hugely energetic performance, the voice obviously not what it once was but I think he got everything he had left out of it and for the casual the main thing is he got every single big note required. But yeah the energy he had was seriously impressive for 61. It would have been high energy performance even back in 06, yet alone in 2023. Also it's very clear he has lost weight compared to 17-19 where he packed the weight on again after looking thinner in 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most energy since the reunion began....especially as he had the injury in '16! He gave everything vocally but when he started running from the start and we are all like "pace yourself man!" He was flat out especially that first 30-40 minutes. It's like he recharged his batteries for this one specifically...you probably won't see him move as much all tour. It was fantastic to see. Far more energetic than AM who are almost half his age! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually in terms of energy it did remind me of those American 16 shows where he seemed to regain most of the swagger and confidence that he seemed to lose over the previous 5 years.

Yea they were great but don't think he ran as much after not long being back from the foot injury....to be 7 years older and giving energy such as that, was a pleasant surprise.

wendirosez Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) The night felt like a triumphant one to me. They played a mean show. They delivered, and i could really feel Axl was giving it his all to this. I felt what was particularly significant to guns was, they didn't pander to the Glastonbury audience but they also didn't forget what made the general public welcome them into their hearts, in the first place. Absurd was likely unexpected for many of the Glastonbury crowd and many of the people at home I'm sure. But, by axl singing that, for me, It kept the heart of this band beating. Shit got really real, they didn't bow down to anyone, they never did. And, i think for that alone, in the general public memories being that they were known as "the most dangerous rnr band in the world " they kept their title. Nicely, nicely executed boys n Melissa. You should all be very proud. And us gunners, should be proud to be part of a night(again) which will undoubtedly go down in history.

rumandraisin Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I'm loving the positivity and hype around them at the moment. 2016 levels of positivity. It's almost like it'd be a good time to drop a single to ride on the great reviews they have going on... No? No..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should all be very proud. And us gunners, should be proud to be part of a night(again) which will undoubtedly go down in history. What really stood out was they did it their own way BUT I do think tailored the set in a way that would work best with the crowd/audience. Safer vocal choices such as bad obsession, pretty tied up, down the farm (which I think was added on the setlist this tour for this show) has helped Axl to do the best with what's left in the songs where it mattered. Did not play any songs where his voice has been ropey (such as TIL, Better, Coma, etc) which I think was very wise. Shorter solo spots, particularly with RQ which is normally quite self indulgent was almost too mellow last night, but it helped keep the pace of the set tight. It was a long strong set but it didn't outlive its welcome. They played plenty of deep cute for us fans but also played most of the hits the public would want. Other than perhaps...adding a new song, I'm not sure that setlist could be much better. They edited it but as you still kept stuff they felt worked well. Along with the tightness of the band and Axl effort I don't think you could ask for much more in 2023 guns n roses and they did themselves proud, especially given how meh they've been at times in the not too distant past.

He did the same in the past shows. In Vigo he was as energetic as this show, and was a 3 and half hours. My wife saw Guns N Roses in Madrid 2006 and She was some dissapointed with Axl. In this show She couldn’t believe what She was seeing, awsome and now she likes more the band than ever before. Is not a diehard fan as me, Guns N Roses is not her favourite band, but now Axl is for her the best frontman in the world. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
something.always Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Google "Guns n' Roses Glastonbury" and just read the negative reviews. From people who were there. "Welcome to the Mumble". "Middle-aged small town hairdresser". "Worst Glastonberry headliner ever". You guys need to take off your rose-colored glasses. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxford Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 When I first joined here in March, there were very very people praising the band and Axls singing. It was a disaster. I was deflated and not holding much hope for Hyde Park. Since this tour started, opinion has swung massively with members. It’s quite something. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
