STREAM (starts at 10pm EST) Axl Rose has been on a downward spiral lately. After releasing Chinese Democracy in 2008 to not-awful reviews, he was riding high on his grand mission to pretend Slash never existed. His voice was pretty loving awesome in 2009-2010: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOUqmDBsHbg But then he took a year off. Apparently he spent that year off eating Doritos and masturbating, because when he came back at Rock in Rio 2011 in front of 50 million live viewers, this is what happened: The Axl Rose Disaster I Known for never rehearsing or doing soundchecks, no one needed rehearsal more than Mr. Rose. A few months later he was invited to perform at Neil Young's annual Bridge School Benefit, where he proceded to forget the words to "Welcome to the Jungle" amid a backdrop of crippled kids: The Axl Rose Disaster II Tonight, Axl will be honored at the Golden Gods Awards and perform with the current lineup of Guns N' Roses (including the recently returning Duff McKagan): quote:Founded by Revolver Magazine, the world’s premiere hard rock and heavy metal periodical, this year’s Golden Gods Awards will honor legendary Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose with the Ronnie James Dio Lifetime Achievement Award and Joan Jett will take her place as the first female recipient of the Golden God Award. Also appearing at this year’s show will be Jane’s Addiction guitar hero Dave Navarro, shock rockers Alice Cooper, Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie and celebrity metalheads Joe Manganiello, Tony Hawk, Pauley Perrette and Carmen Electra among others. How bad will he sound? How fat will he be? Get ready.

He has a habit of picking up decent musicians and making them sit in studios for years doing nothing until they go crazy and leave. When they finally released Chinese Democracy it was 90% the effort of people who weren't even in the band anymore. So what decent musicians has he trapped into the band this time?

I always thought Alice Cooper's early 80s look was based on Vicious https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2Zr7a_AseQ On a related note: it's shocking Alice is alive and actually far more skilled than he ever was as a young man Raku fucked around with this message at 02:15 on Apr 24, 2014 |

Duff McKagan is filling in for Tommy Stinson while Tommy is away doing the Replacements reunion tour. It's pretty much been the same lineup since 2006, but Robin Finck left a few years back and was replaced by DJ Ashba. Bumblefoot is really good and deserves to be in a better band. He kills it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBw_U3GNJJo

Saw an interview with bumblefoot where he said he'd been asked to join the band a ton of times, but was happy doing his own thing and kept refusing but eventually got talked into it. Axl missed a golden chance with Buckethead, imo. That'd almost make it worth buying a ticket, to see Buckethead be his wacky self.

He could do the decent thing and switch to bad country music like all the other singers who aren't 22 anymore but no he chooses to milk the cash cow and sound like a 12 year old going through puberty. No pity for axl rose

and i'm not just hating, I love me some GnFnR and saw them a handful of times from 88 to like 92? before he fled the country(Was at the Chicago show just before the ones that got cancelled when he took off). I knew that was the death spiral right there and it pretty much was
