Title: Just read through the credits of UYI II... didn't know Axl played rhythm guitar!
Post by: 14 Years Estranged on June 09, 2006, 07:16:15 PM
I don't know if any of you knew this little tidbit... but I was looking up something and it mentioned Axl doing the parts of vocals and rhythm guitar along side Slash doing lead & rhythm guitars on Shotgun Blues. So I guess this could mean that the rumours of Axl playing guitar on one or more of Chinese Democracy's songs isn't too fictitious.

The very beginning of Dead Horse is Axl.  I think he said he learned two cords or something like that, and that intro is what it turned out to be..

Hes done a bit of guitar in his time.

In RiR3 he soloed with the others in Madagascar.

Matt Sorum said in 1998 that Axl picked up guitar a few years before that and he now plays like someone that has been playing for 10 years or something like that

Heres a video of Madagascar from RiR3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaAwtu4D3PA&search=madagascar%20rio). With three other guitarists playing its hard to make Axl out.

Im pretty sure he only played powerchords on those old songs. and he's not soloing on Madagascar, I don't even think he's plugged in, cos you don't hear any difference at all when he starts playing ;D but it looks like he's holding down powerchords on that one as well.

In RIR 3, all Axl did was play 3 single notes on the low E-string, hahaha,  :rofl: :rofl:, but at least he got up there.

His guitar didn't actually have any strings, he just wanted to look cool

Saw them during the Dust and Bones tour in 1993.  A portion of the concert was done in acoustic (they brought couches out and sat around and jamed).  Axl played guitar on Deadhorse and You Ain't the First during the show I saw.
