Thousands of fans rioted for about an hour outside GM Place in downtown Vancouver last night after Axl Rose, the lead singer of Guns N' Roses, failed to appear for a concert. It was to have been the first show of the rock band's North American leg of its Chinese Democracy World Tour. Guns N' Roses has a history of concert no-shows. A band spokesman said poor weather conditions at Los Angeles airport made it impossible for Rose's plane to fly. "That's it, I'm trashing all my GNR stuff," said fan Dana Claydon. "I've been waiting for this since '93 when Axl cancelled the last time. What a jerk." Wow! I am taken back by this. Here we are, almost ten years later, and Guns N' Roses is still causing riots because Axl is pulling no-shows. This really amazes me. Why? |
