Seems that Axls voice is coming back,that raspy stile from the beggining,guess he is still using to much falsetos in the high notes.But its better than some years ago.Always been a big fan of his singing.Go on Axl!
He could have been almost as successful with the new band as with the classic one had he put some effort in actually promoting the music. He chose to keep it buried instead. Such a shame. Waste of AMAZING talent.
dont give a dam if g&r get back 2gether or not, AXL IS GNR & he is still the badest mofo on the planet, he should be an action hero, AXL MAN...just sayn.
this WILL be on 'chinese democracy 2', there is a studio version that was ditched at the last minute on chinese democracy because axl thought it shouldnt have covers but the follow up will
@Morpheus7777777 i don't think that much, but if you hear some of the old Illusion songs live, his voice is so overworked he sounds like a 1000 a day smoker. So possibly better now than before, yer.
hopefully axl will do another cover album. I really wish he would just make music and put it out. But the legal ramifications of him using the GN'R name delays everything because Slash uses technicalities to delay Axl everytime he tries to do something with name, even though Axl owns it. So I say fuck it, just release it under a different name.
I love how unlike most artists, who.....after a great performance like that, stand and embrace the audience, as if to say "I know I was great". But no, not Axl. He goes on and talks immediately after, with a joke of all things. He knows he still has it, and doesnt care what people think, negative or positive. He just throws it out there and then makes a joke as if he just sung the alphabet or something.
ya u fuckin have SLASH in your nameso shut the fuck uo, your probably just some little four year old kid that doesnt even know what a fucking guitar is.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
These are the type of songs Axl should focus on, more bluesy. His voice has definitely changed and he should stick with a more low toned blues song. And that is apparently what he is going to do on the next album "Monster of Soul".
Axl does do it beautifully, I wont dog on Rod, since its his song. But Axl's greatest vocal performance, to me. And thats sayin alot. Perhaps my favourite vocals of all time :D
Axl's voice sounds great! I wish he would move toward the more soulful music-because whether he likes it or not that is where his voice has moved in the last ten years.
this is a real band. its not just the Axl show (although he sounds amazing- that voice of his is gloriously beautiful still).
the guitar here really moves you. its a very high quality performance. ive never been fortunate enough to see them perform but if i can in the future, id snap up the chance.
Hey, I see comments like omfg axl is back,(WHICH HE FUCKING IS) but what about the rest of the band, theyre amazing! Look at em guitarists ripping that solo, amazing!
Sad buckethead wasnt there tho, his solo would have added so much emotion.
