What press conference is this from (Axl)?

Doesn't look like a press conference IMO, rather him leaving court perhaps and being ambushed by the reporters?  But I think he wore a powder blue jacket in court?  


He wore a blue jacket when first arrested in New York but he was also processed through St. Louis and he's wearing the same thing in the St. Louis mugshit that he's wearing in the picture above. I just wanna see the video caus eit looks to be very good quality and I've never seen it before.

This picture looks like a screen cap from a press conference and judging by how he looks and what he's wearing, it looks like after he was arrested for St Louis but the video is nowhere to be found...any help?

Its definitely St. Louis.  I recognize the microphone flags of 4 local St. Louis TV stations.  Probably late 1992.

Like others said, it's from St. Louis. Axl wore that pink suit both when he presented himself at the St Louis court after he was arrested in NY in July '92 and at the civil case trial with the biker Stump or with the city of St. Louis later in '92 or in '93. The picture is after a settlement in one of the civil cases (see around 21:10 min mark on the video @Big D in Toronto  posted above).

At the Adler court case in 1993 Axl wore a green suit.

He didn't talk to the press or appear on camera during the Erin/Stephanie lawsuits in '94.

The date of this footage of Axl would've been October 1993. Axl settled with Stump on 10/22/1993. The court footage in the green suit from the Adler case was late August 1993. In the footage he's not wearing a pink suit, he's wearing the brown jacket I asked in the other thread about, which seems to have been a big part of his Fall/Winter clothes in 93-94.

Billy "Stump" Stephenson wanted more than $2 million in damages from rock star Axl Rose.

When his suit was settled Thursday, Stephenson got what Rose, the leader of the heavy metal band Guns N' Roses, called "a very minimal figure" - and an autograph.

Both men said they were happy with the agreement and declined to reveal the terms. The court settlement ended yet another chapter in the ongoing saga of Axl Rose and his riotous concert two years ago at the Riverport Amphitheatre in Maryland Heights.

Stephenson, 28, of St. Louis, had sued Rose for injuries to his back and ear, which he claimed he suffered when Rose dived onto him from the stage at the Guns N' Roses concert July 2, 1991.

Jurors deliberated for about three hours Thursday before Judge Anna C. Forder announced the case was settled. Afterward, several jurors crowded around Rose for autographs.

Stephenson got one, too.

Inside the back cover of Stephenson's rock concert scrapbook, Rose scrawled, "Stump Axl G n' R 93."

As he left the Civil Courts Building, Rose, 31, said he "didn't know what to think" of Stephenson's request for an autograph.

"It was pretty wild to me," Rose said.

Stephenson testified at the six-day trial that Rose had hit him.

Rose testified he went after Stephenson to get a small camera that the fan had used to take unauthorized photographs.

The concert ended in a riot after Rose criticized security and pulled his band off the stage at Riverport. Authorities estimated that 3,000 people had taken part in the disturbance, which heavily damaged the amphitheater and the band's equipment.

Rose said Thursday that he and his band were "trying to figure out how to come back to St. Louis to play." That's a change from the pretrial days when the singer criticized the city.

Rose, of Los Angeles, said he might cut back on his concert antics. …"

It's kind of surprising that the press never followed him during the Stephanie and Erin cases especially given how much publicity Erin gave her case, and also the amount of time both dragged on. Axl's suit with Stephanie lasted from August 1993 to April 1995 and his suit with Erin lasted from March 1994 to March 1996. Surprised that in those two years no reporter tried to interview him, or snap a photo on his way to/from the court houses.
