They're serious artists working hard at their craft. And you're a sucker if you pay to see them work. If you want to see a show on time, go see a cover band at a bar. Give me a break lol
I love GnR but their career is like a step by step process on how to destroy greatness. Stupid stuff like starting on time should not be difficult with a crew of 130.
Axl was a major Man Diva back then. The yes men at the top really should of put their foot down on him but they just kissed his ass an went with it probably cuz they was the ones getting paid and didn't wanna cause a riot. I was lucky the 3 times i saw them on that tour they were on time and not late. pms Duff says it in this video as i comment this lol He's not talking about Doug is he ?
What pisses me off is the band had total disregard for the fans needing to get home using public transport , tubes , trains , people who have travelled a long way and paid for the ticket from their hard earned cash , only to make a decision to not get home that night or see the rest of the concert
I think there was more to why he was late cause Axl certainly was the head of the band and wouldn't want to hurt people or ruin his band's image. I think it had more to do with his mental issues. But now he is on medication and is much happier.
I thought the same thing. I often wonder though, how much of Axl's frustrating behavior was due to Slash's habits. I love Slash, huge influence on my guitar playing and seems like a really cool guy. Man, some of the shows I've seen (not personally but on UA-cam), Slash seems barely able to keep it together. It must have been hard for Axl to see the potential of the band but to be let down by bad habits. Axl on the most part, aside from some tantrums wether they be justified or not, seemed to give it 100% all the time. Anyways, they all seemed to come away better people from the experience.
@@dogsy5150 I'm sure Slash and Duff were to fucked up didn't help the situation. It must have annoyed Axl, and there is no way Slash and Duff would have accepted Axl behavior if they were sober. Izzy couldn't handle it when he was sober and left. I think Axl knew he wouldn't be able to count of Slash and Duff much longer because of Mr Brownstone. It caused Axl to become a dictator.

But yet, that's what your comment implies.
@@CoreyT127 : Yup. I agree! And with that said, I still love Slash and Guns&Roses! Everything they did up until the Illusion albums was "Sacred" to me. Anything after that I don't follow.

This may shed more insight into Izzy's departure. If they were loosing money due to late starts and eating their profits, he couldn't hang cos everyone was drunk and Axl's attitude onstage antagonising the crowd must have turned him right off...
Like most bands they could have been SO much more. So many bands hit it big then tear themselves apart and end up in the past doing their old stuff for old crowds if they are that lucky. Most end up poor and forgotten.
Axl never showed up at Phila they tore that place up!! Million dollar sound system got hammered seats drinks etc! It was crazy!! I learned the next day that axl was in ny watching a nicks game! My favorite band hopefully I will get a chance to see them 👍🏻
Sid, totally amazing info. The nightclub scene in Sydney 🇦🇺 usually commenced from 11 pm onwards, there was this great late music vibe. Even venues in Sydney had curfew placed upon them because of overall considerations upon other people and the landscape of residential housing was changing. Thanks again for the great content.
Imagine having a really good buzz during the opening band .....then..............2 hours later .................buzz is leaving.... your feet hurt because you decided to wear Army boots (not Nikes) .......getting a little tired.........hot sweaty crowd................THEN they hit the stage.
7:41. This another bit of revisionist history by Slash/Duff, saying the tour originally would have ended in ‘92. The tour was always planned to go 2+ years. There is an Axl interview from 1991 before the UYI release, detailing the plans to tour well into 1993.
I saw the Metallica / Faith No More and GNR at the Pontiac Silverdome. Guns didn’t take the stage til around 12:30am. After one of the first songs Axl points to a guy and says “if you were working on pussy you wouldn’t care what time it was”. Brilliant .
I was at the concert too. Came in a big GNR fan and left being a bigger Metalica fan. Metallica blew them off the stage that night. So many GNR concerts were cancelled during that time. Most of which were because AXL being a drama queen. I am still a GNR fan and glad too see AXL has grown up a bit.
More like they are 25 yrs older and want to get it over with and back to the hotel. Plus they were doing stadiums and either you obey the noise laws or else. Plus its just a matter of wisdom and the value of a dollar.
Let’s be real: This has got to an embellishment or hyperbole. Perhaps each member walked away with 7 figures when they should have been well into the 8s. But I’m not buying that they barely broke even. Not when by the end they had enough net worth to never need to work again. As illustrated by everyone’s 10 year vacation, minus the hobby-like side projects.
It only grossed $57,000,000 so not that much for all of them and the crew. I’d want that all for myself working that hard for two and a half years singing and dancing and playing instruments!
@Don Master that proves my point. $57M was A LOT of money in 1992-93. Axl, Slash, and Duff would have easily walked away with a high 7 figure cut... Everyone else was an employee. Remember, they were selling tickets for $50 that now go for $250.
@@roxannemoser Axl got control of the naming rights with less than 10 gigs to go for the whole tour. Slash didn’t receive an employee contract until August, 1995. Duff, presumably during the same time frame.
He smashed his ankle when he was a kid....it got smashed into fking concrete. His family could not afford the proper treatment and it got really fkd up. Despite the recurrent pain and risks of serious enhanced complications, he kept rocking running and jumping every night. You think you could do that?
What a bunch of Divas! What about the schedule of all the audience members? They still like this? I have never went to a GNR tour. I went to the Van Halen tours and they played pretty much as planned! And Van Halen ROCKS!
GnR gave us one great album and 6 years of great concerts, both better than anything that came befor or after. The price was 5 morons with a will for self destruction, hurt and an end that came way too soon. If they had been better behaved & nicer people with a schedule and a plan, they would have given us decades and 10 albums of nice music, good stuff but nothing special. Instead we got only a few moments of PURE GREATNESS that will be remembered forever. Without their real appetite for destruction we wouldn't have gotten these Moments of GOLD.
You think if they were a bunch of nice guys that they would have written an album like AFD? I'm sick of people complaining about their attitudes when their attitudes are what made them special.
nobody nobody If you can’t appreciate Use Your Illusion I & II for the intense, artistic expressions that they became (I not saying they’re perfect, certainly a few tracks that could’ve been cut), then sadly, it’s your lose.
nobody nobody, are you kidding me? You do realize that all of Use Your Illusion I were songs that were written before or during the time that the songs for AFD were made?!? Dont cry was the first song they ever wrote and one of the favs that their early followers loved when they starting to pick up steam on the local LA music scene. The only reason it came out later was because the band wanted to save it in case AFD bombed. November Rain was originally supposed to be on AFD but since Sweet child of mine was on the album they saved it for later since they only wanted one ballad on the album
in the studio Rose is a genius, especially with his octives, but unfortunately live you can't do the octives unless your band can back it up, so Rose was just exposed live, i understand why he would want to prepare verses in the studio were Rose could get inside and blow his imagination open wide!!
So what I'm getting from this is we'd rather tour for two and a half years to break even rather then go onstage on time and pocket all the cash . Makes me feel these guys aren't as smart as I hoped they were.
I had to promise my bf at the time in 94 that Axle wasn't going to fight or walk off the stage. That time was when he was doing all that crap. He was to be on his best behavior when I saw him. GnR put on a fantastic show that night. Whew, 😎😎
If they had kept it together and kept rocking they could have changed todays reality of music. I personally never would have switched up to rap or grunge
Yeah the crowds were pissed. Paying insane prices to stand around for hours wondering if the band is even going to play is bullshit. If you wanna play at 12, right on, but don't schedule it for 8 and make people wait for hours. Fuck that diva bullshit.
what bullshit i worked a job that required me to lift 26 to 28,000 lbs a day.axle ain't getting a cent of my retirement $.internet/I'm cool with the rest of the band Slash and Duff I love what they do.
Axl probably ran 10 miles a night on that stage....not too mention the strain on his vocal chords...real fans would be fine with waiting to get the best show possible
@Lang Hansen Going onstage on time is not a feat. Not upholding your end of a deal is just unacceptable. Also worth taking into consideration, that is, if you possess some empathy in your soul, is that the people going to the shows lead regular lives. It´s not fucking fun having to get home at 3 in the morning, when there´s no trains/buses around just because the band couldn´t go on on time. Fans travel for long distances to go see their favorite artists, it´s not as if everyone attending a gig reside in the same city that the gig´s at, right? Last time I went to a gig, I saw Iron Maiden, they went on at 9pm and rocked it for 2hrs, you´ve got to be a complete juvenile idiot if you think that going on past midnight magically enhances a concertgoing experience. Come on man.
As someone who bought a tape of ‘The Spaghetti Incident’ when I was a little boy, and listened to that “Since I Don’t Have You” cover over & again, I can say that they seemed cool, but that the singer just seemed to be so much of a jerk...
That's exactly why Duff went back to school for finance after he left Guns. He said he had no idea how much money he made or who was stealing from him.
Yeah, guys, you know WHY the manager made all that money? He did his @#$%ing JOB and he did it on time. ZERO sympathy for this band. No apologies at all.
For fucks sake! If you know it takes 4 hours to get ready for a show, start getting ready 6 hours . People pay good money to see you guys & if you say you're going to hit the stage at 7, damnit you should be there at 7!
Maybe.. although if he really didn't care about the fans and giving the best show, he could have showed up on time and saved the band, and more importantly himself a ton of money. The late fees, oayi g the city to keep trains open, etc would have drained all their profits, and Axl said he did it cause he wanted to have the best show possible.
@Lang Hansen right on. The stuff people bash GNR for is what made them such a good band, and especially live act (even if it only lasted eight years 85-93).
It’s a fuckin joke, what a great life they got and can’t even be on time for fans , if the fans didn’t buy records or tickets they’d be homeless an destitute.......
Bit conceited right..we'll go on when we feel like it..mmm we'll pay you when we feel like it then. You are there to do a job not fuck around. If I was waited 2-3 hrs I woulda fuckin left..
Guns N' Roses was a great band but some of the members had a huge attitude problem. Those divas never figured how lucky they were for reaching the top and suffered a lack of respect for their fans... Their awful attitude made the band lose a sh**load of fans. I never saw them and never will because I would be totally pissed off waiting 2 or 3 hours only to get a shortened and sh*tty performance
Axl never disrespected the fans. It's just the way he was, especially with his bipolar disorder. You may want to listen to him in the recent years now that he's doing much better with his disorders.
He didn't have to. Axl is a lot different cat these days, and he was totally humbled and honored to sing for AC/DC. I saw Guns 3 times on Not In This Lifetime Tour. Never once late, no rants or walk offs. I wish he would have found this level of focus and professionalism 30 years ago, Guns would have probably never parted ways.
TYPICAL Rock Star! But a great guitarist from the 80's Band made some really good Rock -N Roll together...came along just in time ;) COMPARED to all the other shit that came out in the 80's! lol
Axl doesnt worry about nuthin cuz worrying is a waste of his time....
He's Axl E. Neuman.
I see what you did there...

2 years to break even......
Have Maiden open and people wouldn't need to stick around for Axl the Diva. Those guys know how to tour and not fuck the fans over.
I challenge anyone to find a bad performance of Axl. He was a bit of an asshole ,but u se he gave it all on stage. Genius

Axels teams of therapists were needed so he could cope with how bad his life is the fans just don't understand !!!
they dont do late starts anymore, because union overtime fees tripled since the 90's.

Slashs book I quit gnr cause axl was late, lol
It’s a fuckin joke, what a great life they got and can’t even be on time for fans , if the fans didn’t buy records or tickets they’d be homeless an destitute.......
So they knew they were blowing money but didn't seem like anyone cared so that's their fault
Sounds exactly as pre-madonna shit
You guys, I just googled this guy Axl Rose and it turns out he’s pulled some fucked up shit!
Yeah I thought the f****** music WAS the therapy!!
I don't buy any of the excuses for going on late.
Axl was late without slash
Bit conceited right..we'll go on when we feel like it..mmm we'll pay you when we feel like it then. You are there to do a job not fuck around. If I was waited 2-3 hrs I woulda fuckin left..
Guns N' Roses was a great band but some of the members had a huge attitude problem. Those divas never figured how lucky they were for reaching the top and suffered a lack of respect for their fans... Their awful attitude made the band lose a sh**load of fans.
I never saw them and never will because I would be totally pissed off waiting 2 or 3 hours only to get a shortened and sh*tty performance
They are a really good band and always will be so wait the goddamn 2 or 3 hours and quit being a pussy or leave the show!
GNR is the ABSOLUTE BEST band EVER
I don't think there is any musician that disrespects their fans as much as Axl.
Maybe Jim Morrison
Try Ritchie Blackmore
Axl never disrespected the fans. It's just the way he was, especially with his bipolar disorder. You may want to listen to him in the recent years now that he's doing much better with his disorders.
1. 1 1.
Disrespectful junkies.
Angus didn't put up with his BS!!!
He didn't have to. Axl is a lot different cat these days, and he was totally humbled and honored to sing for AC/DC. I saw Guns 3 times on Not In This Lifetime Tour. Never once late, no rants or walk offs. I wish he would have found this level of focus and professionalism 30 years ago, Guns would have probably never parted ways.
So what are you saying Axl is a slow poke lol
that's what she said...bwahahahahahaha! 😆
U paying trains to stayt open.bs .guns n roses didnt pay for this
Duff hahahahha
Slash is such an overrated guitarist. Having the mentality of "durrr were a bar band, thats why we go on late." Is incredibly selfish.
TYPICAL Rock Star! But a great guitarist from the 80's Band made some really good Rock -N Roll together...came along just in time ;) COMPARED to all the other shit that came out in the 80's! lol
juggalohunter100 he knows when he is at his best. How noble wanting paying fans to see him at his best
What does his reckless attitude have in common with his competences as a guitarist?
I USED to like G'n'R, but............axl.
Legend
Axl is a spoiled brat. I could understand a half hour, but 3 hours! I would never by another ticket to their show
Spell "buy" not "by"
And yes you would buy another ticket because they,re just that damn good
good riddance
Overrated
It’s way better than the crappy music today
Duff sucks on bass
