Slash Gear Banned from Guns N' Roses Concert

Posted Jan 24th 2010 12:16AM by TMZ Staff

Guns N' Roses fans were forced to take sides in the legendary war between Axl Rose and Slash -- after security at a recent GNR show banned fans from wearing Slash gear inside the show.

It all went down at the GNR show in Canada last Wednesday -- concert security informed fans that they were required to turn their Slash t-shirts inside out .... and leave their top hats outside.

TMZ spoke with a member of the concert security team who confirmed the marching orders -- and told us the instructions were passed down from a producer for the band.

We're told a few fans took the high road and went home ... but most just sucked it up and did what they were told.

THINK Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose holds a grudge? Just a little? Canadian fans who fronted a Gunners show recently in T-shirts bearing the face of departed lead guitarist Slash were banned from wearing the gear. Concert security told fans they had to turn their Slash T-shirts inside out and leave their top hats outside. A security staffer said the orders came from one of the band's producers.
