How cool is the red guitar and trousers.

Anyone else feel Axl's voice a tad low in the mix?  Or is his voice just fucked?

Could well be both, or the tv mix

Found an audio stream on YouTube, Axl sounds dreadful

I think the beeb are monitoring this thread- all of a sudden he’s back in the mix

Slash has brought his A game tonight

Meanwhile, Chrissie Hynde still sounds like Chrissie Hynde. 

Still looks the same as well.

Sounded great.

am currently watching leftfield atm. they are bloody great :-D

Tone71

Pretenders were really good, not really a GnR fan but this is excellent, Slash is definitely on form

Roundwound

Kind of surprised they chose (and were allowed) to play Pretty Tied Up to be honest! 

Slash is on fire, hasn’t stopped getting better.

Pity his les paul needs the tailpiece so high, bet he'd sound great with it slammed to the deck *sarcasm off

I don’t know half the songs in this gnr set. I’m only watching for Slash. And he does not disappoint.

Yeah if this, JDB on top form, and spending tomorrow night watching Matt Bellamy at MK Bowl don't get me back on my guitars nothing will.

Roundwound

Surprising set list. I guess early songs chosen for lower register to allow his voice to warm up a bit. Axl sounds pretty good on Estranged, and up in the mix.

When is Axl Rose going to take over the singing from Austin Powers?

They bluddy should be, the amount I stick up for them in P&E!

swiller

vocals all over the place. soundman sacked tomorrow. can hear a few higher frequencies off and on thats all

Roundwound

Watching live on bbc iplayer. Will be interesting to see if the vocal mix is improved on the playback. 

Axl still has a good voice in the lower baritone range and can still scream. It’s a shame he’s lost the higher  “head voice” range which is where it gets a bit  Mickey Mouse. He’s still a showman, definitely not phoning this in. Duff looks slightly disengaged!

LPManic

Axl being let down by TV sound guy. Up and down all over the place. Duff's backing vocals very low too.

Guns could lose about 3 or 4 songs from this set so far though.

What song is Duff singing?
