If you see some one in a UYI2 t-shirt, mid 40s grey/mouse brown hair, that's me. Enjoy the day!
Enjoy!
Mate you just described like 60% of the audience for the show

Glastonbury is a total lottery when it comes to tickets. People won't know who the headliner will be when they 'apply' for tickets.
So I think a new song will have less impact at Glastonbury. As will 'deep cuts' such as COMA
They will have to bring their a-game though, if Axl can do rasp this is the time to turn it on. Also limit covers outside of LALD and KOHD.Save the new song for Hyde Park, which selfishly I will get to enjoy with a beer in my hand in the gold circle!

#113 Re: Guns N' Roses » Which song gets released first?!? » 105 weeks ago
I'll go with James in the hope that the perhaps is a false flag

Yup agreed new album please!
Of course GNR will do the complete opposite of what makes sense though
#115 Re: Guns N' Roses » If GNR releases nothing in 2023, is this the end for you? » 105 weeks ago
So if new music is to help promote a N/A tour, surely the window of opportunity is closing in on the band to release something?

U.K.'s Independent calls GUNS N' ROSES' performance at Glastonbury "the worst Glastonbury headline set of all time" and refers to singer Axl Rose as the band's "fatal flaw." The reviewer, Mark Beaumont, writes: "Rose makes the whole thing sound like a Muppet Show pastiche of hard rock. It's his voice: a creature that, were you to take it to a vet, would come home in a cardboard box."https://blabbermouth.net/news/watch-dav … B6DzTL5eqo
I'm still gonna see them on August 18th, but the author isn't wrong and anyone who's watched the band since 2016 knows this to be true. Slither beyond every other song needs to be dropped. He can't sing it. It sounds bad, and there are other songs he can do.
Yeah he's definitely on the decline as he enters his 60s. We always knew this was going to happen...he can't really talk the songs like Jagger...not most of them anyways.
We're at a strange point. In the offchance an EP or full album came out, is he even capable of tackling the material?!?
If there's more touring after this year, the whole operation needs to be revamped.
Ditch certain songs....
Slither
YCBM
BetterEtc
Maybe even go old school and have a mini acoustic set in the middle...
Patience
Used To Love Her
You're Crazy
Dead Flowers
Maybe KOHD or an AFD songOr start use backing tapes ;-)
I'm 10000% against this.
Unfortunately....it's probably going to happen because many bands/artists do it now. Hell .... even Roger Waters lip syncs some of the songs.
I don't want them to shelve good material just because he isn't capable of singing it. However I am totally down with the band writing a new album that fits Axls vocal abilities now, whether that's a lower register, less screams or more gaps between lines / choruses.

The Guardian gave them 4/5.
Nice to see GNR still polarising opinion!
The night before I watched Artic Monkeys and ended up falling asleep. They're a good band but the set felt pretentious and GNR were far more entertaining.
I agree though Axl needs to drop songs he can't sing properly. Or start use backing tapes ;-)
He also has a particular way of singing that gets on my nerves. Not Mickey. It almost sounds like an old female choir singer.

Elton was excellent. Not convinced Axl would have been good enough for the show.
#119 Re: Guns N' Roses » If GNR releases nothing in 2023, is this the end for you? » 106 weeks ago
That would be cool.
Probably sitting on the side of the stage watching the performance
