[QUOTE=evlbzltyr;24594007]Guns n' Roses stopped being Guns n' Roses when Matt, Slash and Duff left. Now they're nothing more than the most famous Guns n' Roses [I]cover band[/I] in the world. I wish Velvet Revolver would hurry up and find a goddamn singer.[/QUOTE] Listen to the Chinese Democracy album... it's a lot more than just a "cover" band.

Most bands show up late, it's just a fact of life.
[QUOTE=Akayz;24593913]Axl Rose is great. Guns N Roses are still alive thanks to him. That is all that matters. I blame Dublin yobs for him leaving the stage. *arrives late Yobs (Not Fans): **** YOU!!!!!!!! YOU ****ING PIECE OF ****!!!!!!! :frog: And another thing, he completed the set anyway didn't he? What is all the fuss?[/QUOTE] don't act like a fucking knob to your fans it's a pretty reasonable request
apparently he didn't come on till an hour later when 90% of the fans had already started leaving, then the doors shut and they weren't allowed back in, so the fans spent £80 on tickets for nothing.
[QUOTE=BrickInHead;24594164]don't act like a fucking knob to your fans it's a pretty reasonable request[/QUOTE] So once they finally saw who they wanted to see.... they wanted to throw shit at him and be horrible. :waycool:
[QUOTE=Akayz;24594278]So once they finally saw who they wanted to see.... they wanted to throw shit at him and be horrible. :waycool:[/QUOTE] he should've respected his fans more by being on time, what goes around comes around.

What is all the fuss?[/QUOTE] I blame Axel Rose and the Band for being an hour and thirty minutes late, overreacting to something that happens at a lot of gigs and which wouldn't of happened if they weren't late and for him kicking up a fuss about fuck all just because he can and all the while pocketing the cash for overpriced tickets.
An hour and a half late? Who cares. Its not like its that long. The last concert I went to was delayed 2 hours and no one booed or threw crap. Ungrateful, immature audience in this video.
[QUOTE=Str4t0s;24588667]Worst fucking audience ever.[/QUOTE] I was at that gig. We had to wait for two hours, and when it started he didn't even apologise, and it's hasn't been the first time he's been late on this tour either. The guy is getting too old for this type of stuff.
[QUOTE=collegegrad;24589094]Never gonna go to any concert of this band. Seriously, a bottle or two makes you leave after making the entire crowd wait 3 hours for you to come out? I was at the Eminem JayZ concert a day ago, and I swear, those rap artists are the most professional artists when it comes to concerts. They are very crowd friendly, and will perform on time and such. Best concert I've been to by far.[/QUOTE] This video is fucking stupid. They're mad at him for being late, but once he comes on, they boo him off, somehow not knowing that being a total douche will him them leave, and once he leaves they don't like it? wow.
It's not Guns 'n' Roses anyway... it's more like "Axle & Friends"
[QUOTE=MagicBurrito;24589882]I wouldn't have given a fuck. It's not like they're missing anything[/QUOTE] Yeah, honestly one and a half hours really isn't that bad.

Don't get me wrong the band was great.. Axl, not so much, the guys a prick!
[QUOTE=Justin Case;24594460]It's not Guns 'n' Roses anyway... it's more like "Axle & Friends"[/QUOTE] His fucking name is "Axl" In this thread alone, I've seen it spelt "Axel" and now "Axle" It's even in the thread title come on how old are you.

If they want to hear him play, and get their money's worth, then they shouldn't be throwing shit and booing him off. What do they expect? "oh we'll boo a lot and throw shit at him just to let our anger out". Tell me one artist that WOULDN'T go off stage after getting booed and having shit thrown at them of this severity. And don't say that he was late. They're a rock band. 1.5-2 hours is nothing.
i LOVE guns n roses but not THIS guns n roses , i mean back when he could still sing his songs and didnt go on a drug spree

I was pissed at him for not even acknowledging the fact he was late. A simple "sorry I was late" would have been a lot better than nothing at all!

[QUOTE=sloppy_joes;24594150]Most bands show up late, it's just a fact of life.[/QUOTE] Paul McCartney showed up an hour early in the Atlanta concert. Fact is, these guys are paid millions of dollars, and this is their job. If they can't show up on time it shows a lack of professionalism on their part.
Those fans were overreacting. They paid, okay, it got a little late, but they're overreacted like Bieber fans missing a train to meet Bieber. They ruined it themselves, they deserved every single bit of it. Except when the band played.

They paid for a show that they didn't get in full because of that moron.

And even when he came he got all pissy because of one little bottle. I don't know you but I wouldn't mind a plastic bottle getting thrown at me if I'm going to get payed loads for it.
GNR is dead.

We waited for Megadeth for at least 45 minutes, Dave didn't say anything, and no one cared. Why? Because he can. I was ready to wait like 3 hours. Of course people were getting rowdy, but once Megadeth came on everyone just started being happy and going crazy. Although I gotta admit Axl can be a big douche at times, this was not one of them. He even came back on after 30 minutes, come on. [editline]08:13PM[/editline] [QUOTE=joost1120;24595317]Those fans were overreacting.

And I hope you're trolling, because the only reason they didn't get that show is because they were completely overreacting. Get your shit straight. Why do you think he left? Because he wanted to? He even warned them "If you throw one more thing we're leaving. It's in your hands"
IMO GnR should stop before they turn really bad. I don't wanna remember GnR as this shit.

Maybe he should stop coming late to the shows he makes and people wouldn't be assholes with the band.
