Re: SCOM Troubadour 2016 Pro Shot
I just re watched a chunk of Houston 16, and I had forgotten how good it was. I had seen them a couple weeks earlier in NJ, and it was amazing, but I think Houston was the best show they've had since the reunion. Nothing since has really come close.
This Troubadour show, to me, was disappointing. No one in the band seemed into it...

Yeah the music is good...Axl looks a bit tired....or something.
He'd been running around on a broken foot all night ffs. Give the man a break.

Re: SCOM Troubadour 2016 Pro Shot
When I say it sounds terrible, though Axl doesn’t sound that good. It’s mostly the mix. It’s like there’s not enough reverb, even Slash’s guitar tones sound bad. The whole mix sounds off, and because of that, the stuff that sounds bad, sounds really bad. Regardless of if Axl has a broken leg or not.

Re: SCOM Troubadour 2016 Pro Shot
I find it really hard to watch the clips from the Troubadour show 'cos every time I see Axl running around or putting weight on his broken foot I'm wincing internally.
Agree that the mix sounds wonky, and it's not the best showcase of his voice (Houston '16 is still the gold standard on this tour, wish they'd release a proshot of that show). Still, it would be nice if they gave this show an official release, given its historical significance.

Houston 2016 was his peak. I was at Atlanta a couple shows prior to Houston, he was killer there as well. The Vegas shows were great but by Houston they were a well oiled machine.
