GnR Chris Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Really? Are we this petty? Is this an Axl mandate or his overbearing management? I was embarrassed to be a fan that moment yesterday when they were going around the line telling people no Slash shirts, top hats, and the worst, a girl had to turn her AfD shirt inside out. Are you fn serious? (Though I saw plenty of people inside with the AfD shirt). And please save the, "why would you wear a Slash shirt?" comments. I personally wouldn't. But some do, and as long as they aren't heckling, what's the issue? Embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither me nor my friend were wearing anything like that, but she did make a comment about no top hats to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axlsalinger Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Yes. Yes, it was. Axl and the band swore up and down they don't care about this shit. But we have had several reports about it during this tour. Hard to say if it's coming from the band or venue security, but whoever it is, it is fucking stupid as hell. Even if they want to do this for actual Slash shirts, making people turn their AFD shirts inside-out is ludicrous, and if the band has nothing to do with this they should make it clear to security to stop doing it.

But, it's unknown if it's actually coming from the band or just the security being stupid-asses. I'm leaning towards the latter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the venues are just preventing anything from happening during the show, but it does suck and I don't think the band actually care what merchandise you wear.

They don't need a negative vibe going around. Although, I wonder what gave the venues that idea in the first place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watchman Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 People should just BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO the fuck out of this "band".I'm sorry for everyone who bought tickets to see this mess.For 250,- you could currently see Soundgarden, Tool and Buckethead - and still have money left.Guns N' Roses is over.

dalsh327 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 That is excessive, but it can come across as heckling, but if you want to see him sing, have to play by the rules. But it would be interesting if a lawyer was in the line, went "that's bullshit", and actually had a case. I do think if there's a policy not to wear Slash swag, they need to put it where the fans can see it. I hate it when you're in line waiting to get in, and security is telling you not to bring something in that wasn't a problem at other shows, and if you didn't drive, have to find a place to put it. It's not like the venue has lockers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlthepose Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 The orlando show had a Bunch of Guys dressed in Tophats and no one gave a shit (was around halloween) ..So sounds like a venue issue there .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironmt Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Weird about the AFD shirt, I always see people wearing those shirts at the GNR concerts. I wore one to the wilkes Barre and youngstown shows and didn't have a problem. I would think this other bullshit with the slash shirts and top hats Is coming from the band. How else would security In each and every city know to look for this stuff If the band didn't ask them to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GET OFF AXLS BACK Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Guess Axl will be issuing a written apology to Madison, or any of the forum goers that called her a lying shit stirrer?No I doubt it very much.Jesus watchman, chill out.
