The guy should just give it up. He's not up to it any more.

Sure wasn't there an incident in the early 90s where Rose attacked one of the fans at a gig in St. Louis?

I'd be surprised if he wasn't warned well enough by this stage.

I don't understand why artists/bands do stuff like that. How hard is it to be there on time, especially when everything is done for them. It just makes it seem like they don't give two f***s about the fans and makes you feel like they were just dossing around somewhere before deciding they'd show up.

Apparently you get turned away if you are wearing a Slash t-shirt.

I genuinely believe It's not on purpose, the band probably have to be ready to go on at showtime, and I think axl just goes on when he's ready...I don't think its as planned as people think, I'm sure it costs them money.
