Guns 'N' Roses

Guns have great setlists overall, but they could benefit alot more if they could:
- tune down a step, so Axl can sing better.
- cut out a few songs, especially all the cover songs.
- try out mid range songs like The garden, Bad obsession, So fine, used to love her. Cut out You could be mine and Welcome to the jungle

And no Melissa means weaker backing vocals.

I don't think downtuning will help, because the reason it sucks is because he's doing a soft, airy falsetto, not because it's falsetto based in itself. The kind he's doing now is barely compressing it in the throat by the sound of it and he isn't leaning into it from the vocal fry at all like he used to - it often doesn't come from the same placement either as it would back when it sounded good. Downtuning could make the falsetto stuff even worse, because they sure aren't going to skip those kind of songs.

He has downtuned a few songs when he damaged his lungs in 2022 and now i think he has damaged again his lungs because even the songs he used to sing well he cant.

Depends on the song I guess, but Jungle would sound worse downtuned, unless he sang it in head voice instead.

Jungle its one of the songs he does a less than horrible perform LOL. This is not about being old or out of shape because brian johnson can do it. He is sounding like he has problems in his chords. There is no one 100% good show since reunion the falsetto appeared in many songs but now is that he cant sing. Even the ones he did with his low voice when he needs to go up a bit sounds lweak and trembling. In the studio with michael schenker he sounded great.
 
Bad apples. The place is completly full and they played last year there and for sure they havr played there many times since reunion.just checked 4 tours with various dates since reunion...with 4 new songs since 2017.

 
New tour has began and with it,new old classics being butchered. Think about you,and this one is passable because it was original recorded with more clean voice...but he just sound like a guy who doesnt know how to sing. The stadium,full. Nostalgia.
 
Axl only sound like 10 percent of his old self…

There is a 40 minute promo version of the mytical Perfect crime documentary on YT right now. Strongly recommended for all fans! Why on Earth didn’t they release the complete version in 1994??
