He is a disgrace. They never should have lied to everyone about quitting & then coming back to tour again. He had 2 years to get in shape when the China flu postponed the Stadium Tour & this is what he looks & sounds like.


In Neil's defense, he's probably coming to terms with all of his demons and he likely has a morbid obesity-worth of them.

On a separate note, I can't believe how Mars can still shred at his age and condition. And were there two separate drummers on stage in that clip?

And he does it all on a telecaster, which annoys the frick out of me. I hate those guitars.


He knows Leo got it absolutely right the first time. :)

I saw them last August and was taken aback at both his tone and actual playing. It was just nasty. And he's 10+ years older than the rest of them.

Yes. I figured it was different shows? Isn’t the guitar player not with them currently?

The video is a compilation of different gigs, some of which are from Vince solo shows (notice the backdrop sometimes says "Vince Neil" backwards)

Mick is not currently with them. All the clips are at least a year old, likely much more.

Don is worse than Vince I think



That’s bad in the “I’m old and tired but trying to do this anyway” type of way, but it’s not VN bad. He’s on another level

Damn, he must weigh in at about 280? Sounds like a dying transmission third gear.

They all should seriously consider retiring. The problem is they won't b/c of that touring money is pretty good. They do it for the money, not their love for music. I'm sure b/c of their lifestyle, they need the cash flow.

Saw Sebastian Bach in late 2021, he wasn't as bad as Vince but led me to believe this guy should be taking it easy or consider a more mellow sound such as an unplugged venue. At 55+ old, those high notes/pitch are just dumb and just sound horrible.

I've crapped on how bad of a singer Vince Neil is for 40 years but I will always give him credit for doing anything the T.J. Martell Foundation needs.

Why did I think Don Dokken had died in the last few years?

The meltdown of the crue is hilarious. The best musician has been kicked out. Cause he won't lip sync or play air guitar. So the band makes up bs to boit him. Now all these recordings proving mick can still bring it live and the others can't are coming out. The rest of the band has no problem ripping off their fans. They aren't even playing in some cases, and Vince is terrible.

Especially hearing Erik Gronwall nailing it with Skid Row. He can sing circles around Bach.

Current Axl is still pretty good.
Eh, I don't know. I cut these guys A LOT of slack usually. But I saw him in December 2018 when they played that show in Hawaii, and he was pretty bad. Way worse than he had been when I saw them on THE SAME tour 15 months prior lol. Estranged was a horrible, garbled mess.


1) Axl - I think I saw them during that same tour. The warmup songs were obvious for his voice, and then I got pissed that GnR kept that magic from us for seemingly decades after he got into it. I don't care if you're fat. He blew me away.

2) Ozzy - Experienced the wild swing with him being high vs. being sober. Ozzy high was great. Ozzy sober with Sabbath a year later was a total waste of money.
