I do have a helluva good zoom lens.

I don't know if going in with just a lens and someone else with me taking the body would work?

I assume the worst that could happen is they coat check it like what happened with the Killers ha.

The security were wondering how I got it in and I was like a magician never tells his secrets.

I get what some people are saying here.

But, really it shouldn't matter if some fuck wants to take photos at your show. As long as they have a ticket and aren't annoying everyone around them.

Look. Don't be a douchebag.
You need written permission to take a camera into a random show. They have an official photographer already Katarina Benzova.
I doubt they want another one.

The worst that could happen is that they take your camera and send you away.
It's written there on the ticket when you buy it.
No recording equipment.

You won't legally own the pictures if they're taken illegally either.
Putting them in your portfolio will only show the world that you've done something illegal and don't know enough about your craft to have worked that out beforehand.

What's the point?

If you're trying to build a portfolio, get media credentials. Go photograph bands who are young and don't care. Go to clubs or theaters.

The point is capturing the moment from my perspective and not on my cellphone.

I've done media credentials before and got some. Like I said though, an artist of that caliber would likely not respond to someone like me. Plus I wouldn't be asking to be in the photo pit, but, just taking a few at my seat. Also, some media credentials take away the photographers copyright. For example look at: The Foo Fighters / Taylor Swift.

So again if anyone has tidbits that would be appreciated. I can handle being shit on, but, yeah.


If you weren't official and were taking shots at my show I'd kick you out.

Simple as that.

There are not flies on Frank.

Love his feel.
Adler was trying for a Ronnie Tutt feel and there is nothing wrong with that Tutt's a great drummer it is part of what made Appetite great.

but frank has that Levee Breaks tone going on with a punk rock bite to it that I really like.


Neil Peart is overrated

I love their rendition of this song. Very stripped down with mostly orchestral and acoustic backing in the studio version. Immortalized is also a pretty solid album overall. I do want to see them live so badly.

Never listened to them much. They used to be blasting around an arcade I used to play pool in back in the early 2000s.
Disturbed, Linkin Park, Korn all that Nu-Metal movement. I remember their version of shout. Loved it. But this is better.

I remember hearing a couple Simon & Garfunkle marks shitting on it. Then I heard it... I think Disturbed's version is better

It's certainly the better rock single i've heard in awhile. Really follows and sticks with you. Not to mention Disturbed has been out of the game for awhile. This is a big comeback for them.

I agree. We all knew the Sound of Silence, it is a big and well known song. But I never understood what it as about or the meaning behind it until I heard Draiman singing the lines "Fool said I you do not know, Silence Like a Cancer grows".
And that Neon God line.
This is a cover on par with Johnny Cash's version of hurt.

Holy shit, I just saw a commercial for the GNR tour on CNN! That is quite the promotion. Never expected to see that.

Jesus. It almost feels like Axl was unhappy calling the non Slash/Duff lineups GNR. He's got no problem with promoting the band now that they are back.

i want me some Human Being if TSI is getting some more representation on this tour.

I think we've just been looking at it wrong. They had a drummer. They basically had duff. They needed a guitar player and they got the most qualified one for the job. If they need a drummer at some point or they have an actual reunion, then we can see what's going to happen.

QFT.

I dunno, I think they did Sorum dirty.  I mean, Frank?  C'mon, they could have told him their passing on him & getting Sorum &/or Adler in. My guess is Axl would only give Slash & Duff equal share if he had final say in the rest of the lineup, or something like that.

It's not a game changer for me, but realistically GnR could've easily brought back in Sorum. I agree there's probably some personality clash or Axl didn't want it too much old UYI/VR back in.


As a guy who loved old guns but still enjoyed CD, I'd say better is my 3rd favourite GNR song, I like this lineup.
It honors what was great in both eras for me.

#70 Re: Guns N' Roses » This I Love (guitar solo debate) » 506 weeks ago

I prefer Slash as a guitarist but I really liked Robin's solo.
I expect Slash's to get better though.

Seems overstated at the moment.

Axl's vocals live get my vote for better performance than the album version though.

I'm going to wait to vote because I know I'll love Slash's solo when its taken more shape.
