Rock in Rio: With his voice in ruins, Billy Idol is the protagonist of the biggest embarrassment of the festival


The tragedies of ‘Eyes Without a Face’ and Axl Rose ignite a signal: how long will the event insist on the degradation of the attractions?

They have always been warned in this Rock In Rio, something that should make one think about the production of a strong brand like this if it is really worth following the artists in deteriorated conditions. After the vocal catastrophe announced and reinforced in an article here in Estadão about Axl Rose – he himself apologized for the horrible night he gave his fans on Thursday – this Friday night, 9, it was Billy Idol’s turn. His voice was bad already, bad, he sang everything to the beam, but it got worse in the 1984 classic Eyes Without a Face. Even singing this song for almost 40 years, Idol couldn’t find the tone of the song and stopped twice. embarassing.

The embarrassment was huge and it wasn’t limited to Eyes Without a Face. Other songs also featured hesitation, loss of voice, out of tune and revealed a possible state of intoxication. At 66, Idol is terrible on stage. It’s sad to see him rushing to get some support from the musicians who awkwardly look at each other trying to decide whether to stop the show or move on. His voice goes out of time, gets lost, comes out without volume. A duet between him and Axl Rose would have been the soundtrack of the Apocalypse.

In an interview with Estadão, businessman Roberto Medina said that the fans, who are really fans, don’t care about details like these, of out of tune. They would listen to music with their hearts, not with their ears. For real? Wouldn’t it be prudent and honest to invest in more care and fieldwork? Is it really worth insisting on Axl Rose’s Guns ‘N’ Roses until Axl Rose’s last breath on the world stage as she puts Jessie J, with all her vigor, on Sunset? With the story he has, Rock in Rio can’t become a Procon case.
