I know some people who don't smile while they get their picture taken. I guess what confused me was that in the past he did smile while people took his picture. Maybe now that he's older he just thinks it looks better without smiling, I really have no idea. He smiles before and after the picture. Just not in the picture. Yeah, I guess he has a problem with his smile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A top-secret appearance that some guests were nevertheless able to capture on video. It was the best-kept secret on the peninsula this week: "An intimate private dinner in support of Unicef". While the theme of the event may not be the most exciting in these days of numerous summer charity events on our shores, there was one participant who had what it takes to turn things around. All you had to do in order to find out was get hold of a copy of the precious invitation card that certain privileged guests had received over the last few days to attend the Polo Club de Saint-Tropez in Gassin on Tuesday July 25. There, on an elegant blue background, was Axl Rose's name in capital letters, with the words "Special Guest". If there was any doubt about the announcement, the temperamental Guns N' Roses singer lived up to his word between petits fours and cocktails, singing behind a piano and performing a solo version of November Rain. An almost old-fashioned appearance on the fringes of a triumphant Guns world tour, as the band left Europe to return to American stadiums with a date in Moncton (Canada) on August 5, before playing in front of our Quebec cousins at Montreal's Parc Jean Drapeau on August 8. That wasn’t, however, Mr. Rose's first appearance at a private party in Saint-Tropez. In July 2012, he took to the stage for a special show at a wedding party at the Château de Saint-Tropez, with the unexpected presence of old friend Izzy Stradlin, who joined DJ Ashba and Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal on guitars (Slash was out of the band at the time). For its part, Unicef's French head office, contacted on Wednesday, said it was "not at all informed" of the event, which had been organized in its name. Nor did the organizers provide the slightest information on the terms and conditions of the performance (and the potential fee, which we assume would be a substantial amount...) of the American singer, who at 61 years of age is once again filling stadiums since his reconciliation with Slash and Duff McKagan.

Yeah. Both times I saw him in Budapest he absolutely was against photos. And we were less than 10 people both times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine that Axl would have performed for free and wouldn't have been paid for a charity event. Especially one for children. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
