The sad part is it's Axl people don't like. We've all grown with the changes in his voice but to a non diehard who doesn't pay attention daily the way we do his voice probably sound absolutely atrocious. I mean there are times when i think Axl sounds like absolute shit so I can't imagine what a person who hasn't been paying attention since 1995 thinks. Probably thinks he sounds like one of the worst singers of all time.

Pretty much its like this paradise city 3D its not like all the suddlen he cant sing it he hasnt been able to sing it decent for years i just cant stand it to be honest and the band they are tight and all but it just sounds like poo am just not a fan of ron playing at all hes quick but that about it all the tapping show off bullshit. But a top bloke just not a good fit in the band but each to their own 19

:Haha: the funny part was we had to drive 1.5 hours to Edmonton to see them. My buddies mom drove us cause neiher of us were old enough to drive. We did some shopping at the mall that day. I bought Poison's Native Tongue album. It's funny cause to this day that album reminds me of that day. Anyways She dropped us off and then came back to pick us up at like 10:30 or something. We neer got out till midnight and we got in shit. His mom said we should've coe out to let her know 16 yeah right. Like we'd leave, not to mention the no re-entry thing.

That ^ is the overwhelming view that the general public has. I've argued that for years on these boards and there's people who deny it to the death. Fact is the general public doesn't give a shit about Gn'R without Slash and when they tour even people who know  they broke up still aren't sure who's in the band that is toruing and people still ask if Slash is going to be with them.

Gn'R without Slash would be like Zeppelin without Page.

Yeah even though i like CD none iv my mate think much iv it they all like better but thats about it and i push it on too them when im having a party or something but alway get told to turn this shit off same with all the live stuff they love all the old stuff but cant stand them live stream shows from 2011 forum, vegas and chicago havent been game to show them the rio show i cop enough shit about axl as it is big_smile

What was the show like in`93 mate .I would give my left testicle to see that what was the setlist

It was pretty insane. It was my first concert ever. I was 15...............

it was crazy how we had to go about getting tickets. We had to go lineup outside the mall for "lineup tickets".  My buddy and I got there at 4:00am and there was already over 30  people there. It was below -20 degrees celsius and we waited in line till 9:00am when finally a lady came to the door and stood on a  chair and talked to us all. By this time there was easily 400 people in line. She explained what was going to happen and she'd be back in a  few minutes.  When she came back she had security with her but all hell broke loose. People started pushing and shoving and I managed to weasle my way up to the front and as she went to hand a ticket to someone and I just jumped up and grabbed it 16 Got #6. So we had to come back a  week later and lineup in an orderly fashion no pushing or shoving but this time you didn't need to wait in line for hours. I showed up 10 minutes before tickets went on sale and just stepped into line at position #6 Ended up with row 7 on the floor. 

the show was insane. the crowd was bonkers. Brian May was the opener. I remember when the lights went out the place went absolutely insane. It was pretty much the best first concert experience ever.  This is the setlist I could find. Not sure how accurate it is. I was surprised to see there was no Civil War. It's been a  long time so all I remember from the set specifically was It's So Easy, Jungle, Dead Horse, Patience, Used to Love Her & Paradise City.

1. It's So Easy
2. Mr. Brownstone
3. Live and Let Die
4. Welcome to the Jungle
5. Attitude
6. Double Talkin' Jive
7. You Ain't the First
8. You're Crazy
9. Used to Love Her
10. Patience (with Imagine)
11. Knockin' on Heaven's Door
- Axl Rose Piano Solo
12. November Rain
13. Dead Horse
- Drum Solo
14. You Could Be Mine
- Slash Guitar Solo
15. (with Since I Don't Have You (Intro)) Sweet Child O' Mine
-  Jam
16. (Pink Floyd's Mother Intro)Paradise City

Unreal mate up the front that would be insane 9 9 9 9 :mosh:When they came to Australia in 93 my mum wouldnt let me go i think i was around 15 too 35 now

Don't get me wrong, I've very thankful Axl is alive and I enjoy Chinese Democracy....i'm just talking music history....and the general public perception of him.....if he'd murdered himself on the alter of rock Kurt style...right at the end of the tour....think of  what we'd have to go on...there would never have been a Slash/Duff leaving falling out, we would never have known there would have been a 15 year wait for a new album, and the helium/raspless era's wouldn't have occurred along with the fashion opinions of people.....

Without almost any of his bad moments he'd easily be the best of all time (to my taste he is anyway)

but that's what guys like John Lennon and Jimi through tragic circumstances enjoy in terms of public opinion....if all members of the beatles had stayed alive maybe they'd have regrouped and released a bad album...or maybe Jimi would become a bloated bum...I love all these guys..I'm just saying...there is a legends effect afforded to these bands that GNR doesn't get because we watched GNR evolve and burn out in a way that most bands don't do.

yeah I hear that. the thing that works in Guns N' Rpses favour is people don't consider it Guns N' Roses anymore and haven't since Slash left. Maybe people here will argue that but let's be real. The vast majority of people just don't see it as Guns N' Roses and to be honest Axl never did a fucking thingt o change that perception.  I think when it's all said and done f yu were to do a  documentary on the Gn'R  story the CD era would be relegated to words on the screen as the movie ended. They'd show each band meber and  have a few words of what they went on to do afterwards.

CD in the grand scheme of things isn't part their legacy. It's their Yoko Ono and that's about it.

Got this message from a chick i know the other day

fair enough. For me personally I'm done so it doesn't really matter how much he ontinues to lead fans on or if he comes clean. I won't go see them again even with a new album. I "gave back" for all Axl gave to my childhood.  I saw them in 1993, drove 12 hours all night through the most brutal winter driving ever to see him in 2002 in Vancouver and we all know how that turned out. I saw him at Hammerstien in 2006 and then two absolutely terrible shows in december for that year in Calgary and Edmonton. gave the guy one more chance in January 2010 and it was fantastic. I'm done. Ive "given back" enough and really of the 6 Gn'R shows I bought tickets for 3 were great, 2 fucking sucked and 1 he never even showed up for. So of the times I bought Gn'R tickets I only enjoyed the actual show 50% of the time. Brutal.

I would go see a reunion though.

What was the show like in`93 mate .I would give my left testicle to see that what was the setlist
