Do you think camera phones will set off Axl at the new shows?

Just curious?

[Dont Try Me]

wouldn't count on it 

[fieldsy]

Well they didnt in 2002

[Thorazine Shuffle]

I wouldn't think so.  There aren't really any flashes on camera phones, so it probably wouldn't annoy him.

I just know that in the past, cameras at shows was something he was very passionate against. These days camera phones are unavoidable, it wasn't so back in 2002. I just hope he is prepared to swallow the whole issue and let things roll off his back a little more than back in his 20's.

When they played Hong Kong in 2002, during the first song everyone in the arena was snapping pictures with their camera phones and it didnt set Axl off then.

IF it did then he would just have to deal with it, everyone use's camera phones now and you'll always get a good percent of the crowd taken photos at concerts now with there camera phones. And don't you think this topic is abit pointless ?

He seems to be fairly happy to have his picture taken these days.

In Robert John's book he says that he doesn't want to have his picture taken until he gets healthy and himself sorted or something similar.. maybe that time came..

And yeah with cell phones having flash as a standard these days.. I think they would have to be a lot more easy going about it all as it's going to happen.

Cool, that's promising. I would hope that Axl is much older and wiser these days then back in the AFD/UYI era.

i dont remember them being popular in 2002 although the first one was released in 2000 i remember i was one of the early ones to get a camera phone the nokia 7650 and the only other popular one was GX10 but im talking late 2002 early 2003 plus they were shitty quality

but now there are 2-3 meg with flash and everything so i dont know maybe it will

Pointless threads are the bread and butter of any popular forum, and as long as they are on topic and have fine folks like you posting in them they will be around for a long time to come. ?

he had his picutre taken at st louis, with a camera, the guy who started this asked if it will set him off because of thye camera phones, so realy it does has something to do with this topic ?

[AxlsMainMan]

I think its ironic, all handheld cameras are banned from concerts, but cellphones with the camera feature are admissable...?

[The Dog]

I think his main issue with cameras is having pro-semi pro photographers there who will sell the pics to magazines, not fans who just want them for fan-sakes.  the dude in st. louis was with the press wasn't he?

he filmed the show i think, so it`s not very likely he had something to do with the press..

In 2002 I was up front for the second to last concert of the tour (hartford, ct) and before the show we were told 3 things not to do by GnR security..... 1 No middle finger, 2 no shouting for slash, 3 no holding up of cell phones

Eeeeek, that sounds pretty discouraging. Hope he got over that.
