Axl arrested in Sweden on June 27th

[the dirt]

If he actually misses a show because of this it is only going to make it that much harder for him to get promoters to really get behind him for a big U.S tour because he is once again not proving himself to be reliable. With his history of being high risk and this new fiasco he is not helping himself.

This is not the same as other blunders. If he misses a show, it most probably will be only one, and it will be rescheduled. The shows themselves have been going well.

This could possible be very good press for Axl/GN'R. "There is no bad press" as the cliche goes.

On the other hand, I hope this doesn't make Tommy want to go running back to Westerberg or Robin running back to Trent.

[Mr.Intensity]

wait, did i miss something?? did some girl really talk shit about the USA? and did axl really defend it?? is that what started the whole thing?? please let that be the case.

With all the bullshit going around, ima put my spin on this story. Axl Rose is currently a political prisoner being held captive by facsist Sweden Police. Like any patriot he was carrying around an American flag that was ripped out of his hand by a crazy women and then she proceeded to stomp + spit on it. Axl tried to pick up his flag and was tackled by an evil police officer.

with that kind of attitude.. you can kiss journalism goodbye?

Hehe....I just wont tell my employers my opinions ?

This is not the same as other blunders. If he misses a show, it most probably will be only one, and it will be rescheduled. The shows themselves have been going well.

Regardless, whether this is the same blunder or not it increases the risk premium associated with sponsoring a Guns tour. He needed to get through the European tour incident free to prove to promoters he isn't a liability to sponser, and this type of thing is not doing that. It is only reinforcing that at any given time some type of incident will happen, and that will make promoters reluctant to get in bed with him again with that type of risk hanging over their head.

I agree that U.S. promoters will look at this event, but if they don't miss any shows as a result of this incident I think it won't be a big deal. ?If they get through this tour and this is the only black eye the event will just go away.

[Minneapolisnewsman]

The delay in a response is due to a sorting out of the event itself, and the implications. ?First of all, they have to decide if, and then when to reschedule the Oslo show. ?Timing, regarding a release from jail, is important. ?If he will be out by noon Stockholm time, tomorrow, then the show goes on, as planned. ?If that is unlikely, they may be trying to reschedule to include in the press release. ?Also, if his personal assistant was involved in the scuffle, then mgt. maybe taking a more longterm view of this, and be looking at legal possibilities. ?This second scenario, could have more lasting and painful consequences for the fans. ?Right now, all lips are sealed. ?

My bet, Duff bails him out. ?LOL!! ?

sorry if picture is posted already, but seems he is out... or I am wrong (again).

[Mr.Intensity]

Free Axl, he's a political prisoner.

It was unclear what caused the fight, but Swedish tabloids said the guard tried to intervene when Rose started arguing with a woman ? allegedly his own assistant, according to Expressen ? in the hotel lobby.
