Popular Post recklessroad Posted July 24, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 24, 2015 There was a gig at Club Lingerie that night but Axl was upset with some things and quit the band that afternoon and was fired too. Tom Zutaut worked his magic and by the time of the gig, the band was back together. They played that night under the name Fargin Bastydges. The set list can be seen in the photo. Also Axl played a song with the band that opened for them called Prodigal Sons. The song was "Forty Days" Also 2 days before this gig they played a gig Bogart's in Long Beach which was the first gig in 10 months that Slash used his old BC Rich warlock. He had just sold his Hunterburst Les Paul for drug money. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

recklessroad Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 As far as the gig with the Stones, I sort of remember it being more like "if some people don't stop dancing with Mr Brownstone then this will be my last gig". I will have to go back and listen to my tape to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to go back and listen to my tape to be sure.Yes Mark, Axl says that indeed.Its a pretty crazy show...I just listened to it a few days ago and just did it again now to check exactly what Axl said... Before the first song Axl says...- "I am sick and fucking tired of this publicity bullshit about our fuckin song One in a Million..."and then talks about that for a minute...Than they play Its so EasyThen right after Its so Easy (and before Mr Brownstone) Axl says...- "I hate to do this onstage but I've tried every other fucking way... And unless certain people in this band get their shit together, these will be the last Guns n Roses shows you will fucking ever see... Cause I am tired of too many people in this organization dancing with Mr. Goddam Brownstone..."Then before the last song, Paradise City, Axl talks again -- and quits the band onstage!- "We're gonna do one more song and before that Id like to announce that this is my last gig with Guns n Roses... And this is called Paradise City, which there aint no such fuckin place anywhere..."They played on the next night (October 19th) and Slash said that Guns n Roses wouldnt be over because of drugs (I dont know right now the exact words that he used) and after that Axl apologized onstage for what he said the night before!
