THAT'S an under-statement!!

They've provided me with 3 of the best shows since 2002 I've seen any band put on..and I've seen hundreds of concerts.....just mho.....

booed off at The Reading Festival and bottles of piss thrown at him in Dublin..... hope Axl's getting the message.

it's lame as fuck to have people throwing shit at a band... you think The Stones would stay onstage... Keith yelled at a fan for eating... Axl is an ass, but i'm  glad he walked off...  it's a bummer that all those people suffer b/c of the actions of a few, but those few ruin alot of stuff, like movies, bands, sport events ect... people need to be ejected for this kind of crap...

Not condoning it in any way, but coming onstage a couple of hours late isn't exactly going to create a favourable mood in any audience.....

Whilst there is no doubting that Axl Rose is the biggest nob in popular mudsic (theres the name, for starters), no-one deserves the bottles-of-piss treatment - surely? He did sing 'Sweet Child 'O Mine' and 'Paradise City', after all.

Justin Bieber got bottled too, but he had the balls to finish his set. LOL

Ain't got no expectations. Axl sucd in Melbourne and it burns me to admit it.

Eager to become the talk of every music fans' Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow, Axl Rose has just issued his most insane lawsuit yet, suing "Guitar Hero" makers Activision for $20 million for featuring Guns N' Roses' "Welcome to the Jungle" in "Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock." Axl initially signed off on "Jungle" being used in the game, but on one condition: Do not put any music by Velvet Revolver, which boasts guitarist Slash (Rose's former bandmate and mortal enemy) in the game. Well, not only did "Guitar Hero III" offer a bunch of Velvet Revolver songs, they crowned Slash the game's spokesperson, featured him on the game's cover and made him a playable avatar. Cue Axl's lawsuit..

"[Activision] began spinning a web of lies and deception to conceal its true intentions to not only feature Slash and VR prominently in GH III but also promote the game by emphasizing and reinforcing an association between Slash and Guns N' Roses and the band's song 'Welcome to the Jungle,' " Rose's lawyer Skip Miller writes in the $20 million suit. Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine" featured in "Guitar Hero II," and "Shackler's Revenge" from Axl's long-awaited "Chinese Democracy" actually debuted as a game-ending challenge in "Rock Band 2," so Rose isn't opposed to the use of his songs in music video games. This comes down to, once again, Rose's undying hatred of Slash. .

"There's zero possibility of me having anything to do with Slash other than by ambush, and that wouldn't be pretty," Rose said in 2009. "In a nutshell, personally I consider him a cancer and better removed, avoided." Rose also sued his former manager Irving Azoff, the CEO of Live Nation Ticketmaster, accusing Azoff of conspiring to assemble a Guns N' Roses reunion tour that included Slash. That legal tiff is likely the reason why Axl's GNR hasn't toured the U.S. on its "Chinese Democracy" trek (although a February tour is rumored)..

Why would Axl's lawsuit arrive three years after the release of "Guitar Hero III"? The Amp likes to imagine that during a brief hiatus in the GN'R tour, Rose headed to his local Best Buy to get a jump on some Black Friday shopping. While pushing his cart down the discount video game aisle, he saw the box for "Guitar Hero III" with Slash on the cover and got perturbed. After purchasing the game along with the new deluxe "Avatar" DVD and Nicki Minaj's "Pink Friday," Axl drove back to his home in the Hollywood Hills to see if GNR's music was in fact in the game, only to discover that he bought an XBox 360 copy of "GH3" and he only owned a Playstation 3. Down but not defeated, Rose then realized that he could simply go on Wikipedia to see the game's track list. And then he called his lawyer..

I don't care either, to me Slash has got the talent, A. Rose is just a mouthpiece.
