Howzaa ’bout some Guns N’ Roses from back when they were good?
On Palladia the other night they had on a program called Guns N’ Roses from Oz. Actually it was Axel Rose and a bunch of other dudes. Different drummer, different bass player, a keyboard player, different rhythm guitarist and different lead guitarist. For some reason Izzy Spradlin and Slash were on stage but I don’t know why. The guy doing most of the lead was some funny looking guy with a braided beard and a funky hairdo. Slash did the intro for Sweet Child of Mine but the other dude did the solos. This was not Guns N’ Roses. Why Slash and Izzy were even on stage is beyond me. Slash created all of these solos and some other dude was playing them instead of him.
Denny,
That wasn’t Slash.Just some wannabe.Izzy was only there for a couple of songs.
Thanks
There were four guitarists on stage and one of them sure looked like Slash. Same hair, a hat, a ring in the nose, and he was playing a Gibson Les Paul. He did the intro to Sweet Child of Mine. I didn’t watch all that much of it, because it wasn’t really Guns N’ Roses, so I guess I could be wrong. Thanks for the correction.
Since when was GNR good?
Since they released their first album.
They were there for the money. Bills are bills and they probably have not had many number ones lately so any gig is better than poverty.
G&R had potential except for that whiny prima donna with the voice that sounds like finger nails being dragged across a chalk board. Other than Ms. Axl they were pretty good.
Dave – His voice is better than Rush’s Geddy Lee.
