Was watching the November Rain performance from 2001
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R__W7c1NiTw and can't believe how much Axl has let himself go in the past 10 years. Thing is people thought he looked fat then, must think he looks obese now lol. In my opinion, he looked perfect then. Perfect shiny hair and young looking and in good shape. He was clearly high maintenance then, just as he always had been before, so I wonder why he just stopped giving a fuck about his health and looks in the past few years?
I hated his voice in 2001 and the freak show he had with him on stage, but damn, Axl had so much energy during that show.
Todays band with the Axl of 2001 and the 2006 voice would be pretty awesome.
