DieselDaisy Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Axl sometimes has mistaken notions and the moment he thought, ''you know what I'll wear for this show? That yellow number''. The image of Axl in that coat very much epitomises the nadir of Guns N' Roses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselDaisy Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 It did lead to one of the funniest things I've ever read in a gig review, ''Axl Rose...dressed like a cross between a banana and a paedophile''. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time Axl wore the yellow jacket was during Rock In Rio 2011, and the case I was referring to happened during Rock In Rio Lisbon 2006.

donny Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 deja vu. i read in the adler book that axl refused to go onstage without a bandana in the late 80's(was it the ritz ?) and after a long time searching they found one for him and it pushed his hair up at the back making him look like an idiot. also i think axl is a bit paranoid about losing/leaving stuff in London, remember his jewellery after the 2012 gig and how that story changed ?

That is just unbelivable i think well its Axl. this is a guy that stopped to watch fireworks on the way to a show he was already late for, then chided the crowd for being bored and said they should have went to the firework show instead i love you Axl, you elevated audacity to symphonic and operatic levels.

Jwalker19 Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 I thought it was just a poncho since it was raining? Either way, I'm actually one of the few that liked it and thought it was interesting and flashy haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us believed Axl would perform new materials, it was times where we thought the second coming of ChDm with full rasp was imminent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killuridols Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 I don't think this story is about the RIR raincoat. Jacket and raincoat are not the same. Besides, he never performed with a raincoat on so its not possible that raincoat is his favorite jacket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
