You asked which singer we preferred, but which singer do you think is the better one? I prefer Brian Johnson but Axl does have a little more versatility to his voice. So, I would say Axl is the better singer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefox4000 Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Axl may be a douche but man in his day. he could Snarl out one HELL of a song. As a kid it didn't even sound like a human, lol. and that's a compliment. i prefer Brian......but i take nothing away from Axl. Mick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas King Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Easy choice for me - Axl.I can't stand Brain's voice. Definition of "fingernails on a chalkboard" to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl sounding like a girl is somewhat right as people often said you can hear some Janis Joplin in his voice.Quite frankly, I'm amazed he's still alive. What a band. I think Axl being as reclusive as he was after GnR first broke up may have helped him to stay alive in a lot of ways. The Axl of today seems more at peace and has learned to control those mental and emotional issues he had when he was younger. Proof of that is Slash and Duff working with him again. Well, there's that huge payday that comes with the reunion too. But Axl does seem easier to deal with now than he was years ago. I don't think Angus would have asked him to join AC/DC if Axl still had the reputation he did back in the 90s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said he was without oxygen for at least 8 minutes. It would be a miracle if he didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick I experienced Axl's notorious tardy behavior back in 1992. They were doing a co-headling stadium tour with Metallica who always played first since Axl never showed up in time. After Metallica played a two plus hour set, Axl made sure the crowd waited at least that long before he took the stage. It was after 11PM when GnR came on. It was about 145am when the show ended. Even though everyone knew of Axl's issues with showing up late, they still got very restless and rowdy at times waiting for the show to start. Great experience overall with the show but I don't believe there was ever a more inconsiderate rock star than Axl in his prime. They work around that issue now by scheduling the shows to start later. The opening band will come on at like 830 and GnR will hit the stage around 10 or so. Pretty much starting everything an hour later than most concerts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he ever given a reasonable explanation for why he got to shows so late? Something about him needing to be in a certain place mentally in order to perform. He said he couldn't go out on stage until he was all the way in that place. Axl was diagnosed with some form of psychosis in the 90s. I'm sure that played a huge part in why it was so hard for him to just get up on stage and go. Most performers can just turn it on and off when it's time. I guess he never could back then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's able to manage it well. But there are times when I'll be in the same room talking to him and you can tell his mind is not completely there. His brain just drifts off into another world sometimes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
