Axl and his guitars...
« on: March 27, 2006, 09:08:23 AM »
What do you think of axl playing guitar
(playing dead horse in 1993 and at Rock in Rio 2001 playing madagascar).

I think it looks a bit ... rediculous. He only plays the real simple part of a song and then puts the guitar away again.

He's an amazing singer and frontman so if he sucks at playing guitar, it doesn't really matter!!!!

I've seen him in the video and he's good. He's a lead singer who plays guitar  :cool:

He's definately a writer and singer only. Watch when they played dead horse   live back in the day, Axl leaves a few notes out, keeps it really simple but sounds alright.

True, of course he still is one of the best frontman I just think it's pointless that he plays guitar. Especially at RIRIII since I couldn't even hear him play.

i dont like him playing guitar, id rather him run around on stage rather than standing there. I dont think its a big problem for him to play guitar on perhaps one or two songs like mercury did, just not anymore.

I absolutely totally agree I think that Axl Running around was a huge part of the live show.

Lead singers and frontmen DON'T make great guitarists, they leave the solo's and hard bits to the lead guitarists. Mercury tried it at live aid but couldnt pull it off, because watching him sing we will rock you while running around is better. Kurt Cobain wasnt Dimebag, James hecfeild ain't lars ulrich and bono aint the edge. The Only Guy who has pulled it off was jimi hendrix and no one will be able to beat him, but matt heafy from trivium is kinda half decent. :finger:
