Guns n’ Roses is one of the international attractions that played the most Rock in Rio, despite the points relating to the singer highlighted by the businessman
Who has already seen the series Keys He certainly came across episodes where, in the middle of fighting, the character CHIQUINHA Try to defend people like Wireless, Your Dawn AND KeysBut he ends up criticizing them even more. Roberto Medina He almost did it with Axl Rose.
In an interview with Braulio Lorentz for the G1 (Go Igor Miranda’s website), the creator of the Rock in Rio He was invited to list the three most historic shows of the event. James Taylor, Prince AND Guns N’ Roses They were mentioned – and then the businessman created a curious reflection on the singer, to the point of confusion: is he really in defense of Axl?
“My top 3 [de shows do Rock in Rio] There’s James Taylor, Prince, who was a monster on stage, despite my bad experience… and there’s another one… that’s guns. Axl Rose has lost some magic over time, but still delivers great performances. It’s an entity in the history of music, just like Frank Sinatra. Sinatra, even without the magnitude of the voice before, were packed stadiums because he was part of the story. Axl Rose is like that too. “
Play aside, Medina found something that also happens with other artists in later life: Even if they don’t quite reach the level of performance achieved, musicians like these still attract interest from audiences. Indeed, “musical entities” have become.
“This technical concern clearly exists, because it’s part of the construction of critics, but if the guy doesn’t have the voice he had before, it doesn’t matter so much.”
Aware of this, Rio’s rock head guarantees: if he brings guns n’ roses again, he will pump. Even with criticism.
“If I bring guns again, the media will say that Axl has no voice, many people may complain, but they will fill up again. I really respect when you go beyond your music and become an entity. You Rolling Stones I’m a rare case, a crazy thing: it’s always the same! There is a mystery how the Mick Jagger Still running the same, singing the same…”
