Re: AXL live @ GAZZARRI'S ... Singing "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" with Jack Russell and Bill Gazzarri

That was awesome. You can feel the coke fueled awkwardness in that disarray on stage. It looked like Bill Gazarri wasn't letting Axl out of his reach. The Appetite tour was over and this is when s*** like this happened often. How wild is it to hear Ax in full form singing Paradise City in the backgr...

Re: My "Sweet Child..." influenced song.

It’s absolutely out of key. Or, the bass player is out of key; depending on how you look at it. The two instruments are playing in a discordant fashion. I'm going to disagree with you on this one. There may be some intonation issues that may be heard during the lead guitar parts, or maybe a FX peda...

Intro is a cross between Sweet Child Of Mine and buffalo farts. Love the totally out of key solo. I'm glad you think so. It's really difficult to reproduce the sound of Buffalo farts live. That solo doesn't go out of key. But I get it, it's all part of the "Grrr, I hate you..." You're doi...

I always thought this tune sounded a bit like a cross between GNR and the Smiths.

Saxon cranked out records way too fast around that time. Wheels of Steel, Strong Arm, Denim & Leather came out in less than 2 years. Strong Arm sucks but they didn't have much time to write material. Plus they've always been uneven. Power & the Glory and Innocence are great, Crusader and Ro...

Where Angels Fear To Tread isn't that bad - just more polished and not as raw. I have the opposite opinion. I don't think it's polished at all. I don't think there's a single good track on that record. Unlike Saxon, where I have to admit that the song strong arm of the law is good. Bent was a solid...
