No, they're just Guns N' Roses cover...there's two bands actually: The Best Guns N' Roses cover(that only plays the songs from the original band) and there's The Best NEW Guns N' Roses cover(That only plays the new songs ;D).

The guy who plays Slash has a band that plays just their original songs, but I forgot the name of the band! :-\

Edit: I remember the band's name, it's "Ghost Town Road", and here's their myspace url: http://www.myspace.com/ghosttownroad

Someone posted that they only play NEW GNR stuff.  That'd be a short show since we've only heard 10 songs or so from the new band.  Do they mix in some of the classics from the old band?

Well I really like this love for GNR, I grew up listening to GNR music and saw on Axl everything that was cool in music, and I?m a musician and I understand what this guys are doing for them idols and that?s great, I respect that, I?m a fan too (since '91)

But I wanted to create something like Axl did, like GNR did, that?s why I stopped with this cover thing and started to create my own music with my band, you can check us out at: www.nutshell.com.br / www.myspace.com/bandanutshell

Long live the name GUNS N ROSES and AXL ROSE, as long is about MUSIC, this is a good thing...

What is better is for each person to do whatever the hell makes them happy, and for everyone else to mind their own business by doing the same thing. Whether you succed or fail is one of the least important things.

Hey, know what? You fail harder. Why don't you go read other topics for fucks sake. Just because you hate something, dosen't give you the right to bash it to a bloody pulp.

And by the way, stop the fucking ego trip. Just because you have 10,800 and so posts, dosen't give you the right to go around this forum strutting your stuff around. It just proves you have a microscopic penis.

I'll be honest - I really don't think it sounds exactly like him.

Sounds like he's foreign...  ???

It's one of the better cover bands I've heard but I would instantly be able to tell it's not Axl, you can even tell from the intro. I think you may be overpraising his talents a bit, Dave, as far as his voice goes.

He definitely has the image, though!

Bull. It's actually cooler to be in a cover/tribute band, because of the fact SO MANY hate your ass for no reason. It's actually going with the crowd NOT to do it. So which is actually against the odds?

I agree with you in theory, but it's an honor, and absolute honor to be an artist and know there are cover bands out there like these guys. They're not making fun, and are 100% showing their respect & love for Guns N' Roses.

What in the world is so wrong with that?

I mean, having a cover band is one thing, but going as far as getting all the same tatoos like Axl, and his hair...  :-\

Tatoos are kinda personal.

I don't know, it's just something that I'd never do.

The effort is good though... The music is good, vocals are good, the dressing is similar... I don't know.

Maybe it's just cause I'm not so much into cover bands...

Go listen to UK Guns N' Roses. Their singer is the best "old" Axl impersonator out there. They don't play the new songs (yet) so I don't know how he'd sound on those, but from the songs they've got on their website plus stuff on YouTube, he's without doubt the best Axl cover singer there is.

http://www.ukgunsnroses.com/audio/sweetchild.mp3 - a little bit nasally, but overall still very good
http://www.ukgunsnroses.com/audio/nightrain.mp3
http://www.ukgunsnroses.com/audio/rocketqueen.mp3 - on this one, he absolutely nails the song (especially the last half of it)

Yeah, think of what that kid could do with his own material with a voice like that. ?It's almost like he is waisting his talent away because there is only so far you can go as a tribute...

Someone so young should be writing his own songs, that way GNR would have a bit of help saving rock and roll.

I agree, it's the best gn'r cover band I've heard based on the YouTube music.

He sounds like Axl.. but...  not exactly... it's like, a weaker version of Axl.

Still pretty damn good though.   : ok:

Please don't take this the wrong way, but it's kinda scary with all the tatoos and the hair...

I mean, having a cover band is one thing, but going as far as getting all the same tatoos like Axl, and his hair...  :-\

Tatoos are kinda personal.

I don't know, it's just something that I'd never do.

The effort is good though... The music is good, vocals are good, the dressing is similar... I don't know.

Maybe it's just cause I'm not so much into cover bands...

I have to agree, getting the same tattoos as someone else is a tad bit sad IMO.

It's like a documentary I was watching about these guys who pay thousands and thousands of dollars to have facial reconstruction to look like....Michael Jackson. No joke. They enter lookalike competitions and that's how they make a living. They talk like him, look like him, act like him, dance like him. It's creepy.

I'm not trying to bash this guy Joel, but I agree with Christos that I've never understood people who go to such lengths to make themselves look like someone else.

This link is The Best GNR Cover (old band) playing SCOM.? I think this is much better than the one from Covernation.

And the? Band playing YCBM and Nightrain(the same day the new played Better):

You could be mine : www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzcmpffoXfM

Nightrain : www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBFc0-PCJjE

I like what they're doing , this is for sure a great tribute to Guns N' Roses Music and? made by fans.

I don't really like this cover bands at all.. not because the music, this band plays very good and the singer is great, but I just don't like the impersonators... I just feel it's ridiculous.? :no:
It will be great if they just play the covers without tryin' to be them and makin' themselves clowns.

 :-\ Just my oppinion.

Yeah, think of what that kid could do with his own material with a voice like that. ?It's almost like he is waisting his talent away because there is only so far you can go as a tribute...

Someone so young should be writing his own songs, that way GNR would have a bit of help saving rock and roll.

Yes, I agree with you... and with the people sayin' is freaking to get the same tattoes and everything, I think is a little sick.

Yeah, but if he did that voice with original material, they'd call him an Axl Rose ripoff.

He wouldn't be able to win...

this guy is an axl clone

if you think that guy is REALLY an Axl clone, you're seriously underestimating Axl...

His screams in Madagascar are amazingly horrible? :crying:

Nice to see there's a GNR cover band out there playing the new tracks barely decently? :beer:

IF you take better live from this guy or axl and had just the audio you would not be able to tell the difference.
He sounds more like axl than any cover band i have heard before.

I would notice the differences in one second. I will NEVER understand why the tribute bands try to imitate EVERYTHING, clothes, tatoos, vocal range, EVERYTHING. Seeing that guy with the bucket in his head makes you close instantly your Internet Explorer. Awful.

The singer is not bad at all, I admit it, but to try to emulate Axl's voice is ''Mission: Impossible'', that's why I find extremely pathetic all that circus around GNR tribute bands.

My point is: if you're good enough to be able to play the Buckethead's guitar parts on TWAT, what the fuck are you doing on a stinky cover band? Go out there, write your own music, you'll never be like GNR. If you have the skills to play like Buckethead, you're wasting your time in a damn cover band.

Hi! I made thats videos and i know: Joel is the best Axl Cover from Brazil.

I saw a lot of shows of The Best GN'R Cover and I can say: That guys are the best!

This new band of Joel called "The Best New GN'R Cover" have the same quality of "The Best GN'R Cover", i saw it in the last show (where I made this videos).

If you don't like cover bands, I'm sorry, I like it! :yes:

The Best GN'R Cover 4 ever! Joel rulez!  : ok:

Damn - if the real GN'R wont play them anymore/ever, maybe Joel can belt through Don't Damn Me, Locomotive, Breakdown, Estranged, Shotgun Blues, Don't Cry, etc...

They do a good job but I'll never understand why some people can't just be themselves? That dude has the same tats as Axl in the EXACT same spots, so he'll never be able to actually be an individual. That's one reason I could never be in a cover band and another reason I'm not a big fan of cover bands at all. I love writing and performing my OWN music and it's cool to do a cover every once in awhile, but I could never imagine ONLY playing someone else's music ALL THE TIME. But hey, if they enjoy themselves and it makes them happy trying to mimic others, then that's good. As long as it makes them happy. It's just not my thing I guess. But they are really good, as I said before.
