GNR snubbed by World Peace One

Barely a handful of events over the course of their career still doesn't make them a cause band.

I guess I would never want to view them as one either.

Do we really want Axl on stage ranting about starving kids and the AIDS epidemic or do we love him the way he is?

Look at the list of artists. ?All of them have some sort of cause associated with them.

I listen to GNR to forget about the problems of the world, personally. ?

they asked to play an AIDS benefit in 88' 0r 89.' they were snubbed....

this really is a pointless thread with a terrible title, based on assumption

Amen.  I maintain that if the band was "snubbed" by not being invited (or at least on this list) then so is every other performer who isn't listed as well.

This just means absolutely nothing.

No. This means GNR are not considered among the most attractive artists in popular music history by the organizers. Curiously, neither is Michael Jackson, Bob Dylan, Coldplay, Oasis or R.E.M.
