stage hands

That's why we are all pointing fingers at the coach here in MN......It's more than a coincidence when the same team that dominated last year is falling apart in every facet of the game.....players calling out the coach......players arguing with each other on the sidelines.........players choosing not to play on minor injuries..........players admitting to tanking it....etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if they run the table from here on out.

Axl is one of the greats and as far as stage presence goes, few even come close to rivaling it. However, speaking just about vocals, he would have difficulty holding Cornell's jockstrap and don't take my word for it. Take Axl's. Axl said years ago that Cornell flat out buries him as a vocalist. Just because D thinks he sucks doesn't change that fact.
and just because axl, supposedly, said cornell was a better singer doesn't make it true. if axl said he was a better signer would it be true? and does singing profesionally make him an authority above anyone else? klinda like sports.... being a great player doesn't make you a great coach and that is clear.
personally, i think cornell is overrated. he MAY have a better range but the colors and textures he uses of his voice are few and far between compared to axl and axl is a much better singer/performer live. cornell, in my opinion, is incredibly boring. i also believe that, right now, axl is aging better and may currently have a better range. that's without even bringing up the fact that these people might have more range than we know of since all we know is what has been recorded and axl has far less recordings released than cornell and freddie mercury.
but listen to 10 random gnr songs and ask yourself if you were listening to these songs for the first time if you would be positive it's the same singer on all 10.
Considering he has an incredibly distinctive voice, its safe to say people can pick the voice out immediately.
yes, ofcourse, his voice is distinct and you remember it and don't mix it up with other artists. but when hearing gnr's music for the first time it is easy to question whether that is axl on all parts because he sounds so different in many songs or parts, more so than anyone else. ive heard people question whether that was the guitar player singing in certain songs, etc... when it was axl. i don't know if u understood what i was saying.

More resonances? What?
Axl has two voices - soft and screaming. One or the other. They're great, but that's it.
Freddie had about 16, and a couple we still haven't heard.
LOL!!
you obviously don't know much about voice and come close to admitting it there.
freddie mercury is great too. I'm not saying he has a poor range or isn't diverse.
but listen to 10 random gnr songs and ask yourself if you were listening to these songs for the first time if you would be positive it's the same singer on all 10.
then do the same thing with queen.
i am not even focusing on keys, octaves, and notes here.
bono is correct - Bono is a very diverse singer as well.

axl rose is a more diverse singer than anyone on that list and that can be proven using music theory.
he uses more resonances of his voice than anyone on that list, mercury included.
frediie mercury was a great singer but different than axl.

He did make a difference...
the vikes averaged 10 more points per game with Randy.
That's huge in only four games. It certainly would have went up as he got acclimated and, like i said, the schdeule got easier.
I also disagree that the they are "just not a good team". They lost no starters from the team that went to the nfc championship and shoulda went to the sb and they are not an exceedingly old team so it's not like they lost their abilities.
they have become a circus, starting with favre, and circuses don't win a lot of football games.
FIRE CHILI!!!!!!!!!
#720 Re: The Garden » The 2010-11 NFL Season Thread » 810 weeks ago
the patriots could afford to let him go.
The biggest thing about this that makes childress and the vikings look stupid is that the behavior displayed by randy was inevidable.
he's alway been a drama queen, he's always been prone to putting his foot in his mouth, and he's always been at his worse when he's not getting the ball and his team is losing.
the vikings were losing and that is why they took him. they were desperate.
NEWS FLASH: they are still losing and they are still desperate.
yet they dumped moss, who opened up things for the rest of the offense without even making any catches and there is always the chance that he is gonna catch a 50 yard td to win the game.
the vikings have a much easier schedule from here on out and are still within reasonable distance of catcing the packers if they get things turned around.
trading a 3rd round pick for moss and then cutting him when you need him the most was the stupidest thing i have seen since childress elected to go for a td at the end of the half agasint the pats when a fg gives you the lead and momentum gong in to half time and the ensuing kick off.
the truth of the matter is he questioned childress and was an easy scapegoat.
rumors in minnesota are flying that childress did this unilaterally.
I am a minnesota nativ and pretty much everyone here has had enough of childress.
