After all those years of concerts and performances ,Axl's voice must have gone through such a beating . My thoughts after watching perfomances of Rock in Rio and other various gigs during the 2000 to 20002 era was where Axl was mediocre. Looking at youtube videos of Rock am ring from 2006 and going to see GNR live a couple of weeks ago in my opinion was where Axl was just sensational. The only song l have a bit of doubt about performed live is SCOM. It sounds good but not like it used to sound like at the Ritz performance.
