[@karlimo4034]

@@metalpose An era? They are on world tour right now filling STADIUMS!! You are on some heavy drugs, my man.

[@t3chninja_official]

I love GNR but their time has come and gone. Their music style was a time period in music history. Their fan base still cares which is still strong but not even Metallica has the reach it use to have with it's current album. It's just old timers now who still love old music. Yes you're that old.

[@sirchromiumdowns2015]

Singer has some pipes. Faithful rendition. Best wishes to Steven. No one that has ever drummed for GnR has the swing like Adler. No one. Keep rocking you guys sound great.

[@scoobemail66]

Thats so true. Nobody makes GnR sound right.

[@Stefan-]

Spot on ! Singer sounds about as much as a young Axl as anyone else could and regarding Adler you are so correct, i missed his swing so much after Sorum took over, i remember listening to Civil war when it came out which was the only song that Adler played on on the Use you illusion albums and comparing it to the other songs, it was a world of difference in the drums.

[@josedanielguenul3860]

Matt Sorum está técnicamente 10 escalones por arriba de Adler, de que hablan???!!!!!!

[@michaelstewart9352]

Your kidding right? Steven is pretty slow and his playing has no swing in this performance.

[@RockNDrums650]

Matt was their best drummer, but he lacks the feel Steven gives to the songs

[@MullyShaves]

I don't necessarily care for imitations on things like this, BUT, Axl's voice on Appetite was so unique that it would be a disservice to these songs to have someone out there putting their own spin on it. This guy nails it.

[@Chadillac-xq7xk]

Well said. Kinda like ACDC. Only certain vocal styles fit. In order to do their songs and make them sound half decent. You gotta copy them a bit. Lol

[@davidarwood6264]

​​@@Chadillac-xq7xkNaaa.....he nails every f#$king bit of it. It's damn near album perfection. Guitar as well. Everyone is damn good. I'd pay and enjoy very much.

[@Chadillac-xq7xk]

@@davidarwood6264 oh I agree. I was saying, normally I don't care for people doing imitations. But because axl is so good, he has to be imitated. His songs would sound horrible if someone else used their own vocal style on them. (Honestly the reason I never cared for slash ft myles Kennedy. Kennedy seemed to have his own unique voice. I prefer hearing axl sing guns n roses) And this guy does the imitation perfectly. I'd go see them as well. Solid band with a great frontman. Paying tribute to prime Era axl rose.

Adler's appetite has been at this for a long time. Steven Adler drumming on Appetite for Destruction is a huge reason for its success. I met him back in 2006, absolutely the nicest, realest rockstar I ever met. I'd pay to see him before I pay to see guns N Roses

He's not that good. Basic shit.

[@tracymarshall2788]

I agree

[@tonemac6558]

Green Day's lead singer summed up our love for Steve really well at GNR's Rock n' Roll Hall of fame. "Steven Adler .. your drumming .. your drumming on Appetite for Destruction was PERFECT. The perfect combination of slamming hard rock songs and laying into a great groove .. it's UNBELIEVABLE man".

[@robhamblin7085]

Yes, he plays for the song. Drummers that can do that make a difference. Matt (1 fill) Sorums playing i didn't enjoy but Frank Ferrers a good fit. Great player.

[@TUUK2006]

Adler's drumming was truly perfect on Appetite. He could have been more technical, but it wasn't what the songs needed. He's up there with Ringo. Their drumming served the songs perfectly. He's in the hall of fame of drummers who played on Worldwide famous songs and did it perfectly. I can bluff my way around a kit but the difference between me and Adler is that I'm not a good enough drummer to have came up with those parts in the first place.

[@johnlegend6410]

I could not agree more. Adler Grooves is just Spot on. He has that magical groove and swing

[@VitoMartinok]

Billie Joe is right! The band may be rockin like hell but Adler grooves like he s playing a ballad. I mean, just a few guys can be so smooth and deep. Long live Steven Adler!

I have never heard a Singer emulate axl rose without sounding like a boy that just started puberty , but this guy nailed it, I don't think people realize how hard for axl to sing the way the does at keep it consistent that trade mark high end tone with the grittiness behind it , this guy is awesome extremely difficult for any singer do that for 2 hour show axl is is one of the most unique singer in Rock music history

They would sell out the Lincoln Theatre in Raleigh NC......killer Axl covers.

[@Trouble-Clef]

Exactly! And now he’s got 40 years of that singing stacked on his vocal chords, and they’re comparing him to a guy thirty years his junior. Not a fair comparison. But I did hear some recent GnR’s live stuff and you can tell AR has been working hard on his vocals again. He’s sounding better than he did a few years ago. I’ll be seeing them live in a couple of weeks at Power Trip so I’ll be able to judge for myself. Either way though it’s still going to be a great show! And Tool ending it will be freaking awesome!!

[@JimGardY4K]
