Still the best description I've ever read.

"And after each line he is gazing at the crowd with those strangely startled yet fearless eyes, as though we had just surprised him in his den, tearing into some carrion."

That's how he's been in life, as well.


Wonderful


This + John's most recent post, pretty much sums it up nicely... in other words -- Axl Rose lives in his own world



Regardless of any myth

Sometimes I feel the myth of Axl, or anyone famous really, gets blown completely out of proportion.

I concur.

let's not think his shit doesn't stink like everyone's, y'know? Is he really that special & unique? Not sure I buy it..

Well, he's honest.

By which I mean, he's had "emotional problems" with the songs.
Estranged and Civil War took a long time get on the list.
A mere money-hungry person would've cared less.

He's had issues with his writing and his performance.
Each song touches base on some gut feeling.
Notice how far he can get? Check this out.


Eyes closed, he's outta Hammerstein, that's for sure.
Shaking his head before 'I don't wanna know it now'.
He's conveying the emotion the lyrics carry on him.

Eyes open, he snaps back on, to his defensive mode.
The show itself is Axl's personal space, so he takes it.
Hardly professional as such, but at least there's heart.
