3 solos in one show,must have been exciting. Does Axl play a guitar solo or piano?

thanks .. did you see it.. what did it sound like ? Videos are going up on u tube of the set by I cant seem to play them as u tube isnt working

Dawn

I hear that at the Reading gig at the end Axl shouted at the crowd with a mega phone.

I believe this show was a complete disaster?

Apparently, Axl came on an hour late, and then they had to cut the set short because of a curfew, so Axl's microphone wasn't working and neither was the equipment, so he got a megaphone and carried on singing and was refusing to get off the stage.

And then, the crowd started shouting 'Storm the stage' so the security guards had to step in and everything...

Nah, just got that off the BBC website.

As has been said, the band turned up fashionably late (again) The promoters gained a special extended curfew time from Reading Council to allow them an extra half hour.

The band carried on playing after it and as they kicked into Paradise City the head of the festival cut power to the amps. Axl got a mega phone and carried on singing with crowd participation.

That's just pure Axl, he'd rather make a few headlines than give the fans a full show.

He is such an arrogant dickhead.

The BBC have put up highlights of the set on their site - http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/festivals...ts/gunsnroses/

It'll also be on the Red Button on Friday.

I just got back from leeds a couple of hours ago and can honestly say Guns & Roses were brilliant! Yeah Axl is a dick for being late, the solos get a bit much etc but the hits were brilliant, brilliant gig

Don't know what it is w/us or these last 2 shows. Takes the fun out it 4 everyone fans, band n' crew alike but whatever. So u know, we allegedly had a deal in place pre show w/the city at least at Leeds to do a bit longer performance that was either miscommunication, someone wasn't informed, changed their mind, didn't care or was a con. Regardless the nonsense just seems so unnecessary but w/out real management or industry presence is unfortunately beyond r control. We hope the fans feel they got at least what they could from us under the circumstances as 4 us all things considered that's the main thing. The rest is filler. Anyway, enough rambling. Peace, thanks 4 understanding n' what we did manage to get done out there was a blast! The crowds n' fans were amazing!! And in r opinion (not that apparently it means much) u deserved better!! Thanks again!!

Axl-
