wma 2002 axl's scream-the best axl's scream

[SLCPUNK]

The opening scream at the VMAs was Axl's best scream ever.  Unfortunately, his vocals that night could not live up to that scream.

Agreed. The scream was awesome...long too!  

He never should have run around though! Ran outa breath.

axl sounds like complete shit on estranged

he definitely sounded better on the 2002 tour compared to rock in rio 2

just listen for yourself its horrible

for me rir estranged was the best live version of estranged which i heard

i hope not cause his voice was destroyed on the version i downloaded

he sounds good on tokyo 92 and sounds damn good on chicago 92

I'd agree.. his voice was definately a bit out at RIR2.. Axl's voice is odd.. its like it hit its peak around AFD/Ritz time.. then started breaking up from then.. over the UYI tour.. to what it is now..

Just years of constant touring my friend. I know my voice would be fucked after all those tours, worst is SCOM on tokyo vid..AHHHH OMG...
8 years was to much of a break

But i agree, Axl's scream was fucking unreal. IMO i think Axl is pretty fuckin' nervous at this show n' explanes his voice for the most of it.

My favorite parts of the 2002 VMA performance come during Paradise City.  The part after Axl said "hoooooooooooome" "hooooooooooooooooooome" he said "yeeeeeah!!" and it sounded so great.  Then, after the chorus line again he said "look out!!" and it sounded just like he used to.  I rewind those two parts over and over again sometimes (well, quite often actually).
