Axl throwing tantrums with Tracii Guns

[W 23 AXL II]

In the DVD AXL ROSE THE PRETTIEST STAR, Axl's early band members talk about how Axl would get mad and angry and storm off, saying "Fuck You". There was one story about Axl getting pissed over something and quitting the band .......but he lived in the guitarist's house!!

i just find it funny that this guy was nuts from the start. he's real, maybe the only TRUE real star out there these days. Musicians and celebs seem really fake these days. Axl is real. Crazy then, Crazy now. Imagine Axl, circa 1992, walking into a celeb party in CA...all heads probably focused on him, and everyone in the room knew Axl Rose just walked in.

Axl is the real deal, he's a person with alot going on and has great ideas. He shares his life with us by the music he writes. That's gotta take alot out of a guy, and of course that takes time.  I really admire the guy for being himself and not a fake. Way to go AXL

Why funny?

I can't find anything too far from the truth or funny in what Luigi is saying there. 

[Captain P?l]

He shares his life with us by the music he writes.

 

haha

its funny cuz he may share his thoughts in his music, but he does not share his music with his fans

[ppbebe]

A touch of pathos?but is it that funny? 

I didn?t know it was your idea of fun that he does not share his music with you.

Axl was once a great rock star. Keyword: was. Fame and money took its toll and he went the opposite of the Cobain route. 2 rock stars, 2 different reactions.

But ONE HUGE (!!) difference!    Axl never had Courtney to hire someone to shoot him,  so that she could inherit all his money in case he decides to divorce her,  which he did.

yeah you hit the nail on my head with that post.axl is the realest guy around belive me.i just shake my head and say there goes axl going off again lol.just another axl blowing steam off.nothing anymore surprizes me about axl.sometimes i look forward to a good axl rant myself.

Axl's the true definition of a Diva---great voice (loud and booming), costume changes, and the tantrums to match.  He's great!  We all love to see him perform (the guy obvioulsy is gifted) and love the drama of his life.  He is very open considering somec elebs, but still knows when to draw the line (i.e. even at the height of fame, he wasn't on every talk show/magazine...he picked and chose the classy route). 
He's awsome...sure fame changed him a bit, but considering the amount of fame, money, women, drugs that were offered he still had his head on straight (relatively speaking)...just think of other huge celebs, and how they couldn't cope w/ fame (eg. Cobain, Jacko, etc...).  He was always a tyrant/fired-up red head, and I wouldn't change it for the world!   

[W 23 AXL II]

but thats just the point though....fame didnt really change him....

case point: Right when they were ready to leave Vicki Hamiltion's house to sign the record contract, Axl got pissed about his pants not being washed or pressed or something, and stormed off. they found him later on (they went out to search for him b/c they WERE LATE TO SIGN THE DEAL!!!!)

but when they found him, he was sitting on top of the Whiskey (i think, or a tower records store...some place, but he was sitting on TOP of the store)

always was crazy, he just "made it and got famous". i love it! whether axl was famous or not, he'd still being throwing tantrums. he just does it now in a mansion. imagine william bailey became like a teacher or something?!?!?! he'd be throwing kids out of the windows.

Besides Axl, I think Manson has been the last true rock icon.

Charles or Marilyn??

[mikegiuliana]

throwing hissy fits and always wanting things your way doesn't make you a star..

We have a guy at work who if something doesn't go his way or if something is to difficult he gets like a baby throwing his tools and storming off pouting like a child... Needless to say eevryone can't stand the guy and pray that he isn't their partner

These are the kind of guys you have to walk on egg shells with, you almost can't be yourself because you always have to wonder if you say the wrong thing will the baby explode cause a scene then storm off

These people are primidonas and they suck to work with or be around.. They are alright when things are easy n smooth but beware when something is tough or doesn't go their way

There was one story about Axl getting pissed over something and quitting the band

W23 AXL the 2 , I read an Izzy interview when he said that Axl had this same behavior since he was a kid, back in Indiana. Well that says even more. A shy little red guy with a lot of talent.
