moreblack Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Rio 3 with Buckethead, Ritz 88, Paris 92 are a lot better. There's no melody in that nightrain outro, it sounds like Ron is just shredding....Axl will never sound better than he did in the AFD era, check the raw power in his voice in the ritz 88 video lawrence put up....THAT is guns n fuckin roses... B)did they do Nightrain in Paris 92?nope.AND IT WAS STILL BETTER HAHAHAHAH!!!! just kidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahimahi Posted June 1, 2006 Author Share Posted June 1, 2006 (edited) I can't believe how delusional some of you are, Axl sounded terrible.In Rio?? I think he sounded fucking great, dont know what exactly you were expecting him to sound like. He sounded EXACTLY like he did in 1988. I think so anyway.Im talking about just on the song Nightrain, other songs were hit and miss at the show, but Nightrain I thought he sounded perfect.

Axel1304 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 IMO Nightrain is not only the best GNR song but the best song played at RIR that nite it was a standout song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axls_Disillusion Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 oops I meant Tokyo 92...the concert on the uyi dvd's....my bad... Tokyo 92 is pretty weak in comparison to the other shows from that period of time. What a waste of a DVD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glass Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 It sounded like a shred up to me. Sweet ron, you can play fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quadlaser Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Hmm...Pittsburgh 2002 anyone?!yeah i was there, bucket was amazing-best version ever. keep in mind though that bucket never played it like that until then. why? because it takes a LONG time to figure something that cool out. i think ron will top it soon.

sparka Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 (edited) It really bugs me how the song fades on the solo on the Appetite recording. I love the way all the live versions basically turn the ending into a jam session. Slash, Buckethead and Ron have all made this song amazing.SPEDIT: Anybody fancy uploading the version from Pittsburgh?

His house of blues version is miles better than Ron's first few attempts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattus Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 It's a very good version, but my favourite nightrain is from Pukkelpop 2002 Oh Yeah! I love that one, in fact it's what got me into the song, i never liked it before that!LIZHahaha! weird people! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he reaches for "Never to return" at the end of the first chorus, his voice loses control and his pitch goes off. Note that this is the first time he really pushes his voice, and it fails. After the guitar solos, in the breakdown section, Axl loses it again on "Flying like an aeroplane", his pitch is off, he has no rasp, and he sounds exactly like he did 4 years ago. Once again, he reaches, and misses. "Feelin' like a..." he pulls off alright, but still doesn't sound at ease. Next is the "Nightrain" refrain, and he sounds pretty good. But after the guitar solo, on the final chorus, Axl is 100% 2002, poor pitch control and no rasp. This kind of inconsistency is troubling, and Axl was never this inconsistent in the old days.

SlashisGOD Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 See, I can shred as fast as Bucket or Ron, but there is no feeling compared to a Slash solo. Shredding is some of the easiest shit you can ever learn on a guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackamo! Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I agree with ODS. Axl's voice wasn't too great but it was the band that made it the best Nightrain ever. Bumblefoot was incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
