Can someone type what the video said? It's not working when I play it!

Rose also included a video featuring his foot specialist Dr. Rachel Triche. “Axl sustained a fracture of the fifth metatarsal, which is one of the bones in his foot,” Dr. Triche said. “So, Axl underwent what we call an open reduction internal fixation, where we go in and we put the bone pieces back together and realign them and we placed plate and screws in order to hold them in place while it’s healing.”

“Right now he’s in a cast and we’re limiting how much weight he’s putting on it,” Dr. Triche added. “He’s having his set, I think, designed for the stage so he can perform for everyone still.”

Came in here expecting something like this, I am not disappointed at all haha. If anything, not being able to move around as much will probably piss Axl off, but prevent him from losing as much of his breath and help his vocals. That being said, it fucking sucks this happened. It wouldn't be GN'R without something getting fucked up though, right?

The real GNR is playing its first arena show in decades tonight and Saturday night in Las Vegas. We're told the injury happened when Axl slipped onstage while singing "Mr. Brownstone" during last Friday's Troubadour show. We're told Axl knew something was busted, but toughed it out. Rock 'N' roll.  

He had surgery earlier this week, and got a bunch of hardware to repair the fracture. We're told he'll be in a cast for all the Vegas and Coachella shows, but don't expect him to be sitting the whole time. They're making some kinda support for him, and the setlist won't be shortened.

The band clearly knows this would freak out fans. They got Axl's doc to explain the injury and the surgery.

It is bad timing if you think about it, they got nothing going on after Coachella in April until end of June. So he's got that thing on his leg for all 6 shows and then when nothings up for months hes free. Goddamn

Not bad timing at all. Although it's unfortunate it happened now for the April shows, he'll have the cast off by May and start physical therapy. That way he'll be good to go for the summer tour starting in June.

Out of like but you can NEVER be the next @Carlycosmos!

:rofl-lol:when I saw Axl's tweet I thought about doing a meme but I'm too tired after work to even turn on my computer LOL

Omg looking forward to see how he'll manage to move around the stage now. I can't picture him sitting there quietly!

Well he "misses" 6 shows now, and 2 of them are Coachella. If it happened after these, he may have missed 2 or 3 or so from the summer tour. Sucks either way
