Towelie Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Had a great time at last nights show in London, but the models and bimbos milling around the side of the stage was an insult to the fans.You could tell none of them knew any of the words or had any genuine interest in the music. Some of the girls were more interested in checking their cellphones and chatting to the security than enjoying the show. Not really fair when there are hardcore fans who have stood by the band for years who would give their left limb to have that view.Not cool Axl.

bionic56 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 I just don't see the need for 20 bimbos at the front, totally slimey thing to do, give it to some real fans to enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Money Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Not one of the best topics I've read here lately but here's my take.... They're his concerts and he can invite whomever he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coma16 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Rockstars have groupies (and wives) attend shows. Get over it... If they weren't where they were it is not like you (or other "real fans") would been there instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they weren't where they were it is not like you (or other "real fans") would been there instead.Still missing the point. No-one would begrudge a family member or a wife in that position. Hiring models is just slimey. And as a fan of live music, it's demeaning not just to the fans, but also the wives and family members and brilliant musicians like Ron having to play in front of hired models who couldn't give a shit about what he's playing.

RandallFlagg Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Ridiculous decision, fair play to Bumble when he addressed the matter with his opinion, I don't care how much of a tart you are, fans are the important folks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the band members probably agree with you. At least that's what I got from Ron's statement. It isn't fair and it is totally ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SONOFABITCH Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Putting models up front comes off as a little desperate from a 50 year old. It is creepy. Put me, Thomas Meadow, Ali, and Axl302 up front./SOB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coma16 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 You guys don't out much. And also sound like fat girls who are stuck in line at a club, watching the pretty girls bypass the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eu4ic Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 It's definitely insulting and shows a really pitiful side of Axl (presumably, if it was his doing). Axl's up there singing Estranged to some dumb girls who frankly find Gnr/Axl to be old and cheesy. Casting pearls before swine, right in front of the people who waited and paid to see you. Embarrassing. If it was a Motley Crue show or a Kiss show, it'd be slightly different. But this is Gnr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
