man on the street reporter voice:
What started as a traditional guns n roses riot escalated into a city-wide orgy of mayhem as fans showed that they really do have an 'appetite for destruction'. Looking around in what used to be a 'paradise city', and as this 'cold november rain' falls, I can't help but think, 'all we need is just a little patience'.What's funny is i completely called this yesterday! It's the tour opener and word was that the band had been practicing the day before without Axl. I had a feeling that Axl would cancel or come down with that terrible affliction that's been going around in the rock community that only hits bands when they cross the border into canada: Throat Lock. Creed (thankfully) had a nasty case of Throat Lock last year and cancelled their Vancouver show at the last minute. But Creed fans don't riot. Can you imagine Ned Flanders rioting? I can't either. They probably just said "it's God's will" and walked home.
Anyways, back from the tangent, a Guns N Roses spokesman said poor weather conditions at Los Angeles airport made it impossible for Axl's plane to fly. Poor weather conditions in LA? I thought the only weather in LA was hot and sunny. Aren't they all lizards out there?
I think Axl was sitting around in his underwear eating Doritos while shooting bullets at the TV going "fuck it. fuck vancouver." and ordered up a private stripper and spent the rest of the night snorting cocaine off her tits.
We got there after the cops had at least some semblance of crowd control. Windows had already been smashed, people had already been clubbed. So we stood around and watched. We were semi-drunk, so it was fun. When cops came our way, we just turned around and started walking, and stopped when they stopped. They were trying to disperse the crowd, one cop even told a homeless guy to "go home".
A lot of people were pissed off. Some yelling "fuck you Axl!", some proclaiming they'd never listen to GNR again.
Those people are morons.
He's Axl. This is the kind of thing he does. There are no more angry, reclusive rock stars left. Only Axl. Of course he has no respect for his fans. I already know that. Does that make songs like "Welcome to the Jungle" or "Mr. Brownstone" any worse? Of course not!
Cancelling a concert is so fucking rock n roll.
fuck you
i was there .. whats so rock n roll about canceling a show that uve been waiting for.. what about those people who came from other cities.. it is just not acceptable.. he is a fucking moron .. he is what he is because of us .. if it wasn't cuz of us he would probably be a homless motherfucker asking people to spare some change...
fuck him and fuck you for supporting what he did last night.... i just couldn't believe it TEN MIN BEFORE THE SHOW?!?!??!?! WHY WHY WHYYYYYYYY
