Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: stolat on June 19, 2007, 03:42:07 AM 1. Axl doesn't rehearse (pretty good huh)! :yes:
2. He wouldn't be able to sing with a face full of Botox ::) Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: Kallyopia on June 19, 2007, 06:13:58 AM it's not Axl who " being accused of suffering premature dementia " :rofl: some people lost their time :hihi:
Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: Axl4Prez2004 on June 19, 2007, 07:25:43 AM "premature dementia" because he has the monitors scrolling words?...he really has an interesting condition then, because he had the same monitors 15 years ago at the age of 30! :hihi:

Post by: Led Roses 06 on June 19, 2007, 10:15:39 AM So Brian Johnson (AC/DC) and Ozzy Osbourne must suffer from the same condition because they use monitors too. I've never understood why Axl is scrutinized so heavily for using monitors and other artisits aren't. I don't see what is wrong with them, because there is nothing wrong with wanting to deliver a word-perfect perfromance of a song. And there are also instances where Axl improvises song lyrics live so these people should get their heads out of their asses and get their facts straight before they heckle a legend.
Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: CVBTank on June 19, 2007, 11:20:00 AM Chris Cornell gave an interview where he mentioned the monitors. Of course, his tour with GnR was over a decade ago.
Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: Annie on June 19, 2007, 11:28:53 AM Barbara Streisand had monitors with song lyrics as well as a script of what she said to the audience. And she insisted on metal detectors at the United Center.
Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: judaskennedy on June 20, 2007, 08:45:52 AM the monitors just look bad is all-
yes they're usefull- but it leads people to assume you cant remember the words to your own songs. thats all... i mean.. do you think axl could get through "Sweet Child O' Mine" with out the monitors? its safe to say... MAYBE NOT? So Brian Johnson (AC/DC) and Ozzy Osbourne must suffer from the same condition because they use monitors too. i think Ozzys Dementia is far from premature. Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: ITARocker on June 20, 2007, 04:38:17 PM Axl uses monitors just because gnr lyrics are fuckin' long...And up to now he has been workin' on a bunch of new songs and lyrics...i really don't understand all this bullshit about him using monitors ???, some people got nothin' better to do than kickin' someone else's balls
Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: stolat on June 21, 2007, 04:35:03 AM Yeh, well said! Some people.... ::)
"The difference between a flower and a weed is a judgement"...... He wasn't hiding the fact that he had monitors there. So? Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: JMack on June 22, 2007, 09:56:34 PM Monitors are just a normal part of the evolution of electronics. Like smaller faster computers, cameras and all musical gear. It's there because it can be. If the guy uses them so what. If he doesn't so what. If you have a hugh stage and budget I guess you add all the bells and whistles. Jay Leno has 100 cars and motorcycles??? Because he can. How many camera angles do we need at a ball game? Most of us have computers that are so sophisticated that we use only a fraction of its capabilities...Why?? Because it looked cool when you were buying it. Be honest now we do the same stuff on the new computers as we did with the old ones. But just in case we have dual core hyperthreading realistic video and sound cards so we can go and post on a fan site message board. Whatever........
Title: Re: Premature Dementia? Post by: monkeychow on June 22, 2007, 09:59:57 PM Anyone know what the basis of the "premature dementia" remark was? Like the source? It doesn't actually mention monitors in this article, and it just says he was accused of it after the Friday night Melbourne gig. Was it refering to some other shitty review or something?
