Title: Little Things that you like about GNR
Post by: The New Fiona Apple on September 14, 2005, 03:19:01 PM
This is a thread where we can list all the random subtleties we love about our favorite delayed band Guns N' Roses.  :beer:

I'll start:


Axl's voice at the end of estranged.

Slash's Top Hat

Gary Oldman in the Since I don't have you video is hillarious

Robin Finck's guitar solo face (consipated, yet somehow very very serious)

The Video clips during Rocket Queen

Tracy and Roberta

The Little Snake Dance Axl always does

The "I'm a Lesbian" shirt

Steven Adler Interviews

The Axl shoes at the end of the estranged video

What do you guys like?

I'll add another one.


Axl's mentioning of Reinaldo and Zoise even though he claimed he doesn't read the Internet. Also, his subsequent mention of our beloved Jarmo.

I think he said he does not read it anymore because of people like reinaldo and xosi.

Im sure Axl still browses through these boards. Maybe not as much as he once did but theres no doubt that he still does.

 Also, his subsequent mention of our beloved Jarmo.

I'm always hearing about this. When did these instances occur, and what did Axl say about Jarmo/HTGTH? (curious)


To stay on topic, I'd say that the raw primal scream in Axls voice was always something I liked about GnR. Set them apart from other bands and just kinda drew you into the music.

slash's face always covered by the 'fro
axl's dancing, i love axl's dancing, especially the one leg stomp (and the aforementioned snake dance)  :peace:

All of Axl's different vocals when singing, and how they fit different songs. Its my favourite thing about GNR, apart from the songs themselves

 :peace:

here's a few..

  • The AXL-sneakers
  • When Axl rushes in Estranged after about 3:30 minutes
  • Just before the solo in the Don't Cry video when Axl runs like an airplane
  • When Slash jumps up on the piano in November Rain video

Ok here it goes:

Slashs volume swells in Estranged

Axl leaning his head on Slash shoulder in concert.  (still miss that).

Duff looking confused onstage about we're he was running to next.

The biggest thing:

Axl raising his mic stand with a shot of him looking into the crowd on the Estranged video.

More than anything, the thing that drew me to GnR was their FUCK YOU! attitude. Some people/bands had to "act" that way, GnR never did. They lived and breathed it, it was how they felt, and it showed through their music. Raw, energetic, angry, That was the impression I got from GnR.
