Axl confirmed as new singer for AC/DC tour (June 1, 2016: US dates announced)

[Poops Magee]

Yesterday I just typed "Axl AC/DC" into YouTube and let it play. No filtering necessary-every song is amazing. Axl wrapped in AC/DC and dipped in rocket sauce is my new guilty pleasure.

Still no good audio? All I?ve heard so far were periscope rips and the likes. I need the Lisbon night. Or at least some other one.

It depends on your definition of "good".  There's a link to a bootleg a few pages back, full show.  I'd rate the audio as "good" (C+ to B-) crowd sourced audio, and would rate it a B+ if the "whoo hooer" wasn't so over zealous.

Nothing better, so far, in terms of sourced audio.  there's some youtube clips that have AMAZING crowd audio (A to A-), but I don't think anyone has ripped them to an audio source or tried to cobble them together as a complete audio show....

She should be shot into the sun.

....out of the cannon they use for Those About to Rock....

Disagree. Axl's voice is original and he does gain strength on each tour. 

I tend to agree.  Most tours, he seems to get better as he "plays his way into shape" as they say.

But this time, it seems like he's actually prepared from the jump.  Seems to be taking things more seriously this year, on both tours.

It's great to see as a fan.e

Totally great!   When he sings in that raspy voice, it just is so impressive.  I want Paradise City in that voice.  Axl sang PC better so far this tour than anything since 2010, but it seems like on the AC/DC tour, he is actually got it back. 

Watching Axl take over the world with this monster of two band is wild.

The two best ROCK Bands of my time.

Without a doubt, Back in Black and AFD are the two best rock albums of the 80s, bar none.

I wish Axl and AC/DC would record him singing Back in Black and release it on iTunes.  His is the absolute BESt version of the song!!

Right... looks like there'll be some mighty audio rippin goin on then...

[Poops Magee]

There are a few labeled "Pro shot". Many others with great audio too.

Wow, never thought of that....my top 5 80's albums are...
1-GNR- AFD/Lies
2-AC/DC- Back in Black
3-TS- Stay Hungry
4-Beastie Boys- Licensed to Ill
5-......
Curious on anyone else..

Anyone noticed Axl isnt using a teleprompter? I thought he would nail this for sure, but he has exceeded my expectations by a long shot. #longliverocklongliveaxl

Depends what is considered rock.  All 4 Metallica albums from the 80's are way better than  "Back in Black" in my opinion, but are they technically metal?  If we are blocking metal bands from the list, then sure, "Back in Black" is somewhere in the Top 5.  Not my top 5, but I would say most peoples for sure.  A lot of great rock/metal records came out in the 80's.

NVM I just saw a teleprompter in the Lisbon footage, but it takes nothing away from his performance.

I'd put It takes a nation of millions to hold us back by Public Enemy in no.5 as well since you have Beastie boys.These two are far more "Rock" than the whole 80's glam era.

I?m afraid he's been using the TP but that's ok. Axl's killing those songs no matter what.

I tried to find the pic where you can see clearly there's a monitor in front of Axl.

Axl Rose is not only a probleam solver hes a miracle maker, i was transformed in an AC DC fan   Many have Tried

[Appetitefordemocracy]

Was there last night and all I can say is AXL IS GOD!!

I do admit I'm not a massive DC fan, but do have a few albums, know all the famous songs,... but Axl really does take their songs to another level. I hope I'm wrong, but I doubt Axl will sing as well as he did with DC last night for GNR. I'm interested in seeing how his voice ends up later on in the tour because what I heard last night was the best Axl since the 80s by far: rasp, screams, attitude, just wow.

Whoever has the chance, go and see Axl/Dc... once in a lifetime

While  I applaud your positive comments about the AC/DC show last night, who
The HELL do you think you are to say that Axl won't bring his A game to the GNR shows this summer.
