Title: Axl speaks about M.J.Fox Parkisons event Post by: November_Rain on November 16, 2006, 06:40:30 AM I don?t think this has been posted yet here, but if it is old news then mods delete it.
Guns N' Roses frontman W. Axl Rose spoke with People magazine about his performance last Saturday night (November 11th) at a Parkinson's Disease benefit at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York City. Rose played "Live And Let Die" at the event, which raised money for the Michael J. Fox Foundation and was co-hosted by the actor and Muhammad Ali. Rose said about his appearance, "Michael had asked. We actually used a sample of Michael J. Fox from (the movie) Casualties of War in one of our songs that will be on the new album. So I felt, one, I've always been a fan of his. And I also feel for the guy and his situation. I'm for stem-cell research, so I just thought it would be wrong not for me to come when I was asked." Michael J. Fox is a victim of Parkinson's Disease and campaigned for candidates in favor of stem cell research in the recent Congressional elections. Guns N' Roses plays on Wednesday, November 15th, in Toronto, Canada. There are six Tuesdays left in 2006 on which Guns N' Roses can release http://www.therockradio.com/2006/11/axl-rose-comments-on-parkinsons-gig.html Title: Re: Axl speaks about M.J.Fox Parkisons event Post by: Red1 on November 16, 2006, 06:47:25 AM When they say he played Live & Let Die...
