A little snippet...

Clip 1: Trunk asking Axl about his voice.
Axl - "I had a good night. Not an anomaly but I did have a good night, taking care of my voice. Warm ups before, warm downs after."

Clip 2: Warm-up Process
Axl - "Everybody in this band has their own physical regimne. I do cardio when I can force myself to. You got to get your wind up, head in the right place to go out and do it." (asked about being discipline) "No...it's not just me. They're coming to me wanting to add more songs in the set - tell Frank no one asked!"

Take it for what it's worth, it's what I was able to type up while listening to it.

Can't wait for the full!!

[smishkey]

"tell frank nobody asked!"lol

[Fingers]

Not much-short clips-band came to him on this run asking to add songs

[GypsySoul]

good lord ... who coughed at the end of that first clip? sounded bad.  didn't Fernando tweet something about Axl having bronchitis? hope that wasn't Axl ... not that I wish anyone else ill but better it be one of them instead of him.

I stayed up to hear this last night, and I'm glad I did!  Eddie talked a bit about his trip down there and played album version of Chinese D.  They then played the clips from the VH-1 Classic interview.  He and Jim Florentine spoke glowingly about Axl's performance in Miami, and spoke about Axl being cool, down to earth, and funny.

I can't wait to see this interview.  Axl's not your typical hermit/recluse.  The guy's got such a killer sense of humor and ability to communicate thoughtfully and thoroughly...part of the reason in my opinion he's had so much shit thrown his way (with much of it sticking) has been his unwillingness to speak publicly.  I'm just glad he's finally starting to get out there again...hopefully it's not the only interview he'll do for another 5 years!

Axl's not your typical hermit/recluse. 

You're right... Just cause he stays out of the media eye, doesn't mean he sits in his house by himself, hoarding everything...

He obviously has friends and family around him, and Eddie Trunk is not one of those

Looking forward to see the interview & hope someone capture it... don't have VH1 here on my tele ;-)

Looking forward to hearing the whole interview

AXL ROSE's Interview With VH1 CLASSIC's 'That Metal Show'; Teaser Audio Clips Available - Nov. 5, 2011

GUNS N' ROSES singer and sole original member Axl Rose taped an hour-long interview with VH1's "That Metal Show" following the band's show in Miami on October 29, the second of its newly launched U.S. tour. The talk will air on Friday, November 11 as part of VH1 Classic's "National Metal Day" and will also include a live performance of "Live And Let Die" from the Florida concert.

On last night's (Friday, November 4) edition of Eddie Trunk's "Friday Night Rocks" radio show on New York's Q104.3 FM, Trunk ? who co-hosts "That Metal Show" ? talked about the interview and played a few teaser clips for listeners (hear audio in YouTube clip below).

After Trunk told Axl that he was impressed with the singer's performance throughout the three-hour set, calling Rose's vocals flawless and "spot on," Rose responded by saying, "I had a good night. It's not an anomaly, but I did have a good night, and I have been taking care of my voice. I do warm-ups before the show, I do warm-downs after the show, I do those religiously."

When asked about his pre-show rituals and preparations, Rose said, "Well, everybody in this band has their own physical regimen they have to go through . . . I do a lot of cardio when I can, or when I can force myself to. But yeah, you've got to get your wind up, and you've got to get your head in the right place and go out and do it."

Trunk also spoke about other vocalists who painted themselves into a corner by singing classic songs in a higher register and then having to perform them live 20 or 30 years later. "I did that with 'You Could Be Mine'," Axl admitted, before adding that "The first time I had to play that live, I was like, 'What did I do? What have I done, I have to sing this live now!'"

Rose was reportedly asked during the session about the band's possible induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, the chances of hearing new music, his notorious lateness at concerts, the current GUNS lineup and more.
