AC & Roses,

[Black Devil Dog]

Initially I was of the opinion that he was about the worst possible option, but It seem as though Axl offered to help them out.

Angus didn't even know anything about him, which I thought was pretty funny.

Hopefully it works out.

A favourable review from the first gig in Portugal.

 

[tavas]

He did a pretty good job, all things considered. Must be hard trying to belt out while sitting down.. Sounds like he's about to blow a poofer valve. Plus Guns tunes down half a step while AC/DC plays standard tuning which makes a difference

I must just be too old and cynical but I thought that sounded sh!t.

 

[Coodgee]

now that all the ******** has settled down, we can see Axl's voice is a really good fit. It's not Brian, but Brian isn't Bon. It's still AC/DC, just a bit different. I'd like to see them do an album with Axl, he could take make a significant artistic contribution. They could do with some more interesting lyrics like Bon used to write.

Back in Black sounds ******* excellent with Axl. better than Brian even.

Could the next album be another Back in Black and take the world by storm???

I thought he sounded absolutely awful

 

[Coodgee]

even accounting for the fact that it's a crowd video and the guys in the crowd are also singing along? Note how the non-english speaking countries like to na nuh na along to the riffs at AC/DC shows?

 

[timmi9191]

I also thought his performances at the guns n roses reunion were well below par. He just cant do what he used to.

Pffft. Get Rose a ******* Zimmer frame and a fwuffy pillwoe.
A broken leg never stopped Ozzy..

Maybe he's going to take this opportunity to redeem himself.

Sounded pretty good singing Hell ain't a bad place to be, but I heard him sing Thunderstruck and that wasn't great. No doubt the recording done on a phone doesn't help .

Axle kinda sounds like Brian Johnson when he first started...

This is pretty good. Sounds a lot like Brian

I thought he sounded absolutely awful

Agree could only manage to watch a few clips it was just painful and the fact he is sat in a chair did not help.

 

[buckerooni]

I can't get past the fact that AC/DC is now fronted by one of the biggest rock'n'roll ******** of all time. It's time to make the momentous move to unfriend them on Facebook!

 

[Black Devil Dog]

They should hoist the chair up and have it hanging above the stage with the bell. And during For those about to Rock, they should fire him out of a cannon.

 

[Black Devil Dog]

Axl's sounding pretty damn good.

I was very sceptical, but seeing some of the clips from recent shows in Europe, I've done 180.

 

[mongey]

Axl is a notorius **** head but he is good at what he does vocally most of the itme

 

[tavas]

When his voice holds up, Axl can actually sing well. Shame his personality lets him down alot.

There's probably not too many people who can fill the shoes of AC\DC's singer. I think Axl is doing a great job, and not being a **** while doing it. A tribute band singer couldn't handle those size crowds and be consistent for the 10 dates.

 

[Benn]

Maybe the wheelchair's a good thing, while he's stuck in that he can't piss off for 3 hours when he's supposed to be on stage.

 

[mondestrunken]

GnR made one and a half seriously good albums

AC/DC made a million albums of which about 20% of the songs are awesome.

I'm trying to hold on to the past too, but isn't it time everyone banked their cheques and moved onto something else?
