Randy Lahey Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) What was New GNR's worst performance? The big 3 seem to be the last RIR, Bridge School and the VMA's. Personally, I think it was Bridge School, although RIR wasn't much better. Edited February 26, 2013 by Randy Lahey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesecake Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I think it is unfair to say NuGNR, but more like Axl's worst? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsession Of Vanity Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 RIR, Bridge School and House of Blues 2012, and all of them he was sick. Outside of sickness probably VMA's, and various 2002/11/12 shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The VMA's did the most damage to his career, but Bridge School was just awful. I felt bad for Axl when I was watching it.

2x4 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 VMA 2002 and RIR 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldog Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Gotta be RiR 2011 just because so many people saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Isn't the Rio 2011 the show that's on dvd on Amazon under the title "Live in Paradise City"?I never know if these are official. I guess there not so never order them. I need a Blu ray to really convince to buy.There's something about GNR the bad shows are sometimes the best. St Louis couldnt have been a good show. That Download one were Axl walked off but then came back to nail the song. Dublin where he stood stationary after stuff was thrown.Rio 2011 is kind of iconic GNR show. Bucket's yellow mac will forever be burned into the rock history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Softpaws Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Bridge School was a disaster from the start. At least Rio 11 started off somewhat good and we got Estranged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Bridge School by far. RiR 2011 sucked compaired to what we had until then... If you listen to Tokyo 2012 and The vegas residency show we got, his vocals aren't that different from RiR itself. But Bridge School sucked big time.

trqster Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 To be honest most show's are a bit embarrassing on Axl's part these days, but the bottom worst has got to be Bridge School's appearance. It'll go down in history as a Axl being a parody of his former self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liers Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Bridge school. Although RIR 2011 wasn't great, you need to take into account it was raining pretty good and axl was sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJones90 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) Bridge School was worst. RIR was really bad in some parts but in other parts I found it strangely good in a way. Not sure what it was. The fact that it was absolutely pouring down, it was good pro shot footage, Estranged after so long, and when Axl was trying to put in a lot of effort. It did have some highlights. Things like Estranged, Its So Easy, Nightrain weren't all that bad.I'd go with VMAs because that was shocking, but that's a different lineup and a different Axl to what we have today. So bridge it is.I didnt enjoy any of that at all. Everything about it sucked. I don't get why they had to do what they did.....why couldn't they just sit down together and perform some acoustic stuff like Patience and something different?

Blusky Grenfield Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 VMA's he just blew it, nervous as shit but at least trying. It wasn't what it should have been but I don't blame him for that.Bridge School I cut him some slack for the good cause.Dublin 2010 was the absolute low imo, followed by Rio 2011 and playing weddings for the 1%.

Dean Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Clearly no preperation done to adjust his voice for the acoustic setting. In the end, I'm sure they helped bring in a lot of money for a great cause, so I can't be too harsh on Axl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F*ck Fear Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Bridge school no doubt about it.RIR was pretty bad but it had good moments where bridge school was pretty crap start to finish.VMAs 2002 wasn't that bad when compared to the other 2 mentioned.

Randy Lahey Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Axl's had almost no luck with the high profile webcasts. The only good one was Rock AM Ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimb0 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I call RIR 2011. Mainly because had just come off a really strong tour months back where he was raspin out, and to just appear bloated, breathless, clueless and raspless was a total shock.
