Yeah but also think about this…people want new songs written with Slash and Duff. Is Axl really motivated to write new lyrics? What inspires him? He’s decades older now. Do we just all go on the premise that Axl is constantly coming up with lyrics in a notebook or something? I’m not so sure.

Who knows? He could have a book full of lyrics or nothing…he’s quite an enigma. Chances are better on lyrics than vocals
See I’m not positive about that claim though. We know from previous posts he has recorded vocals. We do not know there are lyrics from which to complete those vocals. Full circle, see Quick Song.

I’d also question his motivation to write new lyrics, let alone record the vocals.
#374 Re: Guns N' Roses » Slash confirms “one or two” new songs by June » 234 weeks ago
I imagine the last time he did vocals in earnest would be in the 2006 timeframe. Songs like Shackler’s and Better clearly had different sounding Axl. There’s also the story of him recording vocals for Soul Monster i think on like xmas day. But yeah his newest vocals to date are Rock the Rock.

Prior to the purchase of the Village/Storage Locker CDs, do we have confirmation that those discs had circulated at all?
Someone on a forum had quoted the chorus of “Sorry” (absent from the storage locker recordings) years prior to the album’s release, but is there evidence that hoarders had copies of the storage locker discs?
No official confirmation...but years ago when I talked to various players on the forums, I was told there were a "bunch" of discs floating around.
Back in 2006-7 I assumed this was the Trunk discs and in 2008...the second album.
Whatever the hell was in circulation, it was out there in 2003-04... maybe earlier.
I remember what a fucking miracle it was when IRS leaked in what? 2005/2006? Hearing that they played it on Trunk and not actually hearing the track for months later.

I heard the proshot on YouTube today and Sweet Child is actually quite raspy. When I heard the cell phone clips I couldnt hear any at all but the clarity of the pro shot really makes easier to hear. It’s softer than the old days but I still think he sounds good live and could put out great vocals on an album. Would probably surprise a lot of us.
Axl is definitely no Vince Neil.
At least he tries. I’ve often thought Axl would never record again in a studio but then I remembered Rock the Rock. If he can do it for Scooby can he do it for GnR?

It’s really cool. I made a crack about 2014 but it really is cool. Hope it gives him confidence to nail it on this tour.
#378 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl with Carrie Underwood » 236 weeks ago
Good for him. Not something an A-lister like Carrie Underwood would do in 2014 for sure.
#379 Re: Guns N' Roses » GN'R 2021 Tour Thread » 237 weeks ago
He’ll be fine. Anyone seen the headlines Bon Jovi has been making on their tour? I give Axl a ton of credit, even if he’s mickey mousing it, for trying to hit notes and being a presence on stage.

Oh sure I’m all for smaller venues, I just dislike the amphitheater experience. Might just be the area I’m from (Boston) where our main amphitheater is a pain to get to and the overall experience blows.
Hate to quote myself but thinking about my original point…
I think before they downgrade the size of venue they play in North America they’ll do the baseball stadiums with a viable second act. Alice in Chains? That would sell, and GnR would still be the main act every night.
Edit: meant to quote when I was wondering what the market was for them after going football stadium to arena (shortly after), then the baseball stadiums.
