Guns N ‘Roses is one of the international attractions that played the most at Rock in Rio, despite points related to the singer highlighted by the businessman
Who has already watched the series Keys Certainly came across episodes where, in the midst of fights, the character Chiquinha Try to defend people like Wireless, Your dawn and Keysbut it ends up criticizing them even more. ROBERTO MEDINA almost did it with Axl Rose.
In an interview with Braulio Lorentz for the G1 (via Igor Miranda 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 cited – and then the businessman made a curious reflection on the singer, to the point of generating 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 one more… that is Guns. Axl Rose has lost some of the magic over time, but still delivers great shows. He is an entity in the history of music, just like Frank Sinatra. The Sinatra, even without the extent of voice before, was crowded stadiums because it was a part of the story. Axl Rose is like that too. ”
Play aside, Medina found something that also happens with other artists of older age: even not reaching the level of performance obtained at the height, musicians like these still attract interest to the public. They actually became “music entities”.
“This technical concern of course there is, because it is part of the construction of critics, but if the guy is not in the voice he had before, it doesn’t matter so much.”
Aware of this, the head of Rock in Rio guarantees: If it brings Guns N ‘Roses again, will pump. Even with criticism.
“If I bring Guns again, the media will say that the Axl has no voice, many people can complain, but it will fill again. I respect a lot when you go beyond your music and become an entity. You Rolling Stones They are a rare case, a crazy thing: it is still the same! There is a mystery like the Mick Jagger keep running the same, singing the same… ”
