AxlRQ93 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 19 minutes ago, downzy said: Axl still sounded phenomenal on several GNR songs in 2016 and 2017. Whether he fronted AC/DC or not really didn't matter with respect to criticizing some of his vocal performances in Guns. In any event, I saw Axl give what is perhaps one of the greatest vocal performances I've ever seen in person when he performed with AC/DC in Philly. I would not trade it for less complaining with respect to his singing with Guns. 100% this 🫡 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2020_Intensions Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 4 hours ago, Rovim said: Perhaps had a good reception I thought. The AC/DC stint is one of Axl's greatest moments imo. No one else was worthy to tackle it in my view and then Axl nailed it and he had to cover both the Bon Scott era and the Brian era reminding people that he was still one of the most talented singers in the genre. also, most people seem to like at least HS, Perhaps, and Monsters around the Gn'R forums it seems. Around the GnR forums yes. We are hardcore fans though. I was talking about the general sentiment. On all social media posts/articles .. The feedback on these songs is a lot more negative than positive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakey Styley Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 While ACDC might have slightly accelerated the decline of Axl's voice, it still would have come anyway. As others have said, Axl sounded pretty good in 2016/2017 on the GNR tour. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I wouldn't be one bit surprised if a very short statement was released a week before the first date of any supposed tour "welcoming Axl back, thanks to Brian for all his work". I don't expect it, but it just wouldn't surprise me, I expect Brian to go out with AC/DC and struggle and then MAYBE there's a conversation about postponing or calling Axl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeman5150 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 2 hours ago, colonizedmind said: Not just praised....it was like a full 180! Huge 5 Starr reviews and that he had not only saved Angus and co but realised a childhood dream and been reborn. 2016 will go down as one of the best if not best years to be a fan of Axl! 100% agree! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Axl was personally chosen by Angus and I have heard nothing but praises from different musicians about how well Axl did as their singer for the short time. Wish I had seen it, but AC/DC already played Dallas.

F*ck Fear Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I am absolutely glad that he did! It was the best Axl has sounded live since 2010. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karice Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 I myself remember reading that Brian felt betrayed that Axl took his spot as lead singer for AC/DC and I was LIVID. I wrote on MYGNR Forum something like,"So, Axl saved Brian's ass and instead of thanking Axl, he says he felt betrayed? Brian is an ungrateful bastard who needs to run right into a wall at full force for saying that. 🤬😡 MYGNR Forum Posters replied something like,"I know you're a Axl fan, but I'd feel betrayed in Brian's shoes too myself. It would be the equivalent of your wife cheating on you with your best friend. Also, I doubt Axl would be happy if say he got really sick and say Mick Jagger replaced him as lead singer of Guns N'Roses. Besides, Axl didn't save BRIAN'S ass, he saved Angus's ass. Brian had NOTHING to do with the hiring of Axl as lead singer of AC/DC, Angus hired him without even consulting Brian. Can you now see why Brian feels betrayed?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimiRose Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 21 hours ago, Blackstar said: I didn't think I would ever say that (as I always liked long hair in guys), but I disagree. I think cutting his hair short was a good move (combined with the loss of weight in the last couple of years and recent wardrobe changes). His long-ish hair had ended up being a mess most of the time. He looks much better now. I think the weight loss makes him look better, but if his hair was long combined with the much better physique, he'd still be hot. Long hair is just better on all men. Let that be a lesson to you all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colonizedmind Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 In his 4 months with ACDC did Axl do more interviews/press/band photos with DC than he's done with Guns in 7 years? Perhaps 😱😶 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRmello77 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 For many reasons it was the right call, as mentioned by others before. Getting back on top of the rock n roll universe cementing his GOAT frontman status. For us fans and especially those who got to see it live, and for me watching countless YouTube videos its the bomb. It was everyone's dream to ever hear him sing with maximum rasp again, the thing we love most about his voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
