Re: Guns N' Roses, Jack White set for Bridge School Benefit
Its bullshit, since that is how Axl always sounds now, its just an excuse.
Re: Guns N' Roses, Jack White set for Bridge School Benefit
And it's a lot harder to sing upper register than it is to do monotone vedder type vocals, though Eddie is a hell of a singer too, it's just not as a demanding of a style as Axl's is
Isn't Axls style the hardest to pull off? I'm actually surprised he can still go out there and do Jungle etc. I saw Purple in the early 2000s and they didn't even have Child In Time in the set.

Even on the songs where Axl doesnt need his higher register he still sounds like shit. Its all about practice, if you dont use your voice you lose it.
Re: Guns N' Roses, Jack White set for Bridge School Benefit
That's what I thought. Axl's never been a consistent singer, and now he's getting up there. It is what it is, but I don't think stretching his chords further with tons of rehearsing is going to help it. As usual he'll improve as the shows go on.
Also, it's far less noticeable if you're actually at the gig.

Re: Guns N' Roses, Jack White set for Bridge School Benefit
So I watched some of the videos expecting a car crash of biblical proportions which for me honestly never came, not the best GNR performance I've seen from either band or Axl but far from the abomination some are declaring it as. Better was weak but then I've yet to hear a great live rendition of it in 6 years.
Gotta say I'm staggered at the doom mongers in this thread and how disappointing it is to see long time members who go months between posts jump in as soon as GNR do something to predictabley tell everyone how shit it was.
